The Return of the War Legate

Chapter 468

Adrian said, “I’ve always acted deceitfully in the face of an enemy army. You should know this very well. Hence, my words may not necessarily be trustable.”

“You…

Byron’s entire body was shaking from anger. Adrian smiled at him, but in his eyes, Adrian’s smile looked like the smile of the

devil.

Then, Adrian shifted his gaze to Tanner and said, “How about you, Tanner? I’d like to know if you were pleasantly surprised. Did I catch you off guard?” Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Tanner’s tace was drenched in sweat. Large droplets dripped onto the floor. He would be lying if he said he was not scared.

No one would be able to remain calm in the face of death.

However, Tanner suppressed his fear with great effort and answered, “Sir, I don’t know if I made a mistake at some point but I’ve always been very cautious over the years. How did you find out about this?”

Adrian sipped his coffee and shook his head. “I haven’t been in Swallowston over the past few years.”

Tanner broke down upon hearing this revelation. He shut his eyes and answered, “Sir, I’d like to plead for a quick death. I hope you will have mercy and grant me a swift onr.”

Adrian answered, “I will fulfill your wish to die, naturally. However, you don’t get to decide how you die.

“Men, send Byron to be beheaded in Battle Warrior Tower and have Tanner and those from the outlands sent back to the outlands to be headed at the border. Leave their corpses to the wolves!”

“Yes, sir!”

“Noon!” Byron reared and broke down into tears.

Tanner’s entire body trembled. He knew that Adrian was doing this to warn the autlands of the consequences of offending War Legate Draco. He had been planning on performing a meritorious service for Luposia, Yet, in the end, he humiliated Lupusia in a way that was beyond his imagination.

Bryon and Tanner were taken away.

On this very day, the Battle Warrior Tower was surrounded by people.

Bryon was made to kneel as he cried profusely. He was executed by the Battle Warrior Department, and the journalists’ cameras caught every single moment of it.

Meanwhile, in the outlands, there was a live streaming of three hundred Luposians, including Tanner, kneeling at the border that lay behind a natural moat. They were executed with their faces turned to Lupasia,

These videos caused a huge commotion and countless people in the outlands talked about it at great length.

The great reputation of War Legate Draco spread across the world once again. His mercilessness and ruthlessness were deeply ingrained in the minds of his many enemies.

An enemy would need to ponder deeply on the consequences of offending him before taking action.

The Battle Warrior Department made an official announcement following the execution of Tanner, Byron, and the Lupasians. The Department would take over the management of Swallowston when the time was right and place the city under Wyvern Peak’s control.

The case of Byron’s relationship with Luposla caused a huge commotion and countless people chastised him online.

Everything was calm over the next few days. The disturbance slowly dled cluwar and the people returned to their normal lives. Everything was perfect in Swallowston.

Four days later, Samantha, Adrian, and the others were having breakfast in the villa when Adrian suddenly remembered something and asked, “Sam, do you have any female friends who are still single? Could you introduce them please?”

Samantha was stunned upon hearing this, and so was Joanna

Rue and Juno looked at one another.

No one knew why Adrian would want to befriend a single woman.
