Hur answered, “If my son can’t sleep, how can I as a mother sleep peacefully?”

Adrian chuckled and removed his jacket, draping it over Hoe’s shoulders. He said, “It’s nothing really. I was thinking about

Father. How nice would it be if he were still alive.”

“Your father is already dead and you’re the lead of this house now,” Rue sald

Adrian did not respond. He had no idea when it started but he had lost the sense of security of when his father had been

around.

Meanwhile, Rue said, “Wyvem Peak’s three million soldiers have assembled. Your achievements as the legate are so great that your superiors feel insecure. You’re worried about the future of Wyvern Peak, right?”

Adrian was surprised. He had not expected Rue to notice this. She was a homemaker, yet she could see this clearer than anybody else.

“How did you know, Mother?” Adrian asked

“I used to be a top student back in my day. I’d have pursued a doctorate if I didn’t meet your father. However, I didn’t figure this out. Juno was the one who told me.”

“Juno told you?” Adrian was extremely surprised.

Rue nodded. “Juno may be only eighteen but she has a sharp mind. She told me that many people from Wyvern Peak will die if this continues. I suppose that’s what you’re worried about, right?”

Adrian had not expected June would be able to think so clearly because of her young age. He figured that she had most probably spent her time and effort learning about Wyvern Peak over the years.

He said, “Juno is truly impressive. Even though she’s young, she has a clear vision of the future. She will amount to great achievements in life when she joins the worldorce.”

Rue answered with a “mm–hmm

“What would your father say if he were still alive?” Bue asked Adrian.

Adrian kept quiet for a while, then said, “I have no idea.”

Rue heaved a sigh. “Adrian, you’re not a child anymore. You should understand what you have to do. If your father were still alive, he would certainly tell you to do what you want and do what you should.

“You are your father’s pride. I’m sure he will give you all his support.” This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Adrian had not spent much time with Harold but in his memories, Harold would constantly encourage him to go further in life. However, he needed to think twice about the situation that he was facing now. One wrong decision would result in him faring more than just a small–scale battle.

It would be the ultimate war.

If that happened, a lot of people would die.

Rue said, “My son, you and your father are equally willful. However, you’re doing much better than him. You’ve inherited his strengths. The most important thing now is for you to figure out how to ensure Wyvern Peak’s survival,

“Hence, don’t hesitate after you’ve made your choice.”

Adrian had trouble believing that Itue was actually capable of malding such a speech. He looked at her, amused.

“Mother, tell me the truth. Did you come up with that speech or did someone else write it for you?”

Rue said, “Juno told me to say all that.‘

Just as Adrian had expected. Juno was young but her thinking was sharp, and he was deeply impressed.

Adrian stopped hesitating at this very moment. He pulled out his phone and made a call. “Dispatch my orders. Dissolve Wyvern Peak now. Have all its soldiers leave Wyvern Hall and return to their homes immediately.

“Dissolve all the Battle Warrior Departments in the different cities and do it now.”
