The Return of the War Legate

Chapter 684

Eira said, “Don’t be fooled by his sweet words, Ivy, He’ll never remove his mask and show his true face. Our lives are torture anyway, so we might as well die.”

Ivy nodded and said nothing.

However, just as Eira’s voice faded, Adrian reached up and removed his mask, revealing his face to Ivy and Elra. The women were astonished when they saw War Legate Draco’s true face, and their attention was fully drawn to it.

It was a young face that looked to be less than twenty–five years old.

Eira was astonished, and so was Eira. In their minds, they believed the War Legate Draco under the mask was more than thirty years old. However, the face underneath looked extremely young.

Adrian said, “I don’t wear a mask to hide myself. Perhaps what I’ve done for the inland is for myself, but you’ve misunderstood me, and I can prove it to you

As he spoke, Adrian removed his battle suit and exposed his upper body. Eira and Ivy stared at him and found his body covered in scars and healed gunshot wounds. In fact, there were a few scars on his chest right where his heart was

“I’m a human who’s well and alive. I can absolutely live a happy, worry–free life if not for the inlanders who are living under heavy fire in the name of righteousness. If I’m gone, the whole inland will belong to Chase. If no one controls him, the monarch will be deceived. Do you think the country will be safe then?” Adrian stated.

Ivy and Eira were stunned for a while.

Meanwhile, Samatha brought over a garment for Adrian to wear.

Eira said, “Don’t try to deceive us with your filthy reputation. I’m just going to say this again. You’re an animal. I’ll never answer any of your questions. You can’t change anything with what you have.”

Ivy inhaled a deep breath but she did not speak.

Adrian nodded and answered, “All right then. In that case, I don’t have anything else to say either. Take these women to Battle Warrior Tower. No one is to be released without my order.”

“Yes, sir!” Blade answered and waved his hand.

More than ten men walked over. However, it was at this exact moment that a whooshing sound was heard. A few dozen sharp arrows suddenly flew in from all directions before flying toward Ivy and the other women.

“Someone’s here!” Blade roared. He was the first to respond.

All of Wyvern Peak’s soldiers quickly scanned the dark surroundings.

Adrian swiftly swung his leg and kicked Ivy, Eira, and the other women out of the way to avoid the flying arrows.

“After them!” roared Blade.

“There’s no need. They’ve already left,” Adrian said.

Blade stopped, turned around, and said to Adrian, “Someone tried to kill Ivy and the other wor

Ivy stood up and said in a passive tone, “We’ve falled our mission so it’s useless to keep us alive. Hence, she wants to kill us.”

“Who is she?” asked Adrian.

Ivy did not respond. Instead, she walked over to Eira and the others and helped them to their feet. Adrian could see from their

and expressions that they had lost all hope.

That was the most terrifying part.
