Upon saying that, Adrian’s gaze landed on Raiden. A gush of coldness filled the air as murderous intent enshrouded him.Raiden appeared extremely surprised. He never expected to encounter a Wyvern Peak member as soon as he woke up. Moreover, the member claimed to want to kill him. With furrowed brows, he said, “I know you, Draco. You used to be a measly soldier who served my troop in the past. How dare you behave atrociously to me now.”None of this felt fake to Adrian anymore. He walked up to the platform step by step without uttering a word.Upon noticing the situation, Mya hastily called out in a worried tone, “Legate…”Raiden was the previous war legate of Wyvern Peak, after all. His capability should not be underestimated, and Mya was worried that Adrian would be no match for him so she was concerned for him.Raiden’s entire body shook upon hearing Mya’s words. His gaze landed on Adrian. “Legate? Draco, why is she addressing you as ‘legate?’”“What do you think?” Adrian stoo

Upon saying that, Raiden laughed in a confident manner. He pointed at himself and said to Adrian in clearly-enunciated words, “The answer is simple. I did it so that you’d come here today and wake me. If someone were to fall into a deep sleep here, they would never wake up without being disrupted by external factors. Hannibal is the best example.“Though I have not figured out the principle behind the meteorite until today, the reality has proven that it not only healed my injuries but also made me more powerful.”Raiden smiled with pride.Gloria was Adrian’s closest friend after he joined Wyvern Peak. She offered to join the mission in his stead back then. Now, as Adrian thought about it, he realized it was no mere coincidence.Raiden continued, “I chose you because I knew Gloria had feelings for you. If you were to die on the island, she’d most certainly spare no effort to save you. When that happens, she’ll discover the secret of the island and awaken me. I considered the numero

Boom, boom, boom!Raiden rushed a few steps forward. With every step he took, the ground underneath him cracked. A powerful gush of overbearing presence filled the air and it made Mya feel terrified.Raiden made his way to Adrian step by step. Meanwhile, Adrian had already gotten back on his feet.Mya was lying flat on the ground and anxiously watching the scene before her. “He’s too powerful, sir,” she said shakily.She was scared out of her wits the moment Raiden kicked her.Upon hearing this, Raiden could not help smiling. “I forgot to mention to you guys that the radiation here has strengthened my body. I’m so powerful that I shock myself!”Boom!Raiden swung another punch at Adrian’s chest when his voice faded away. Then, a series of punching noises were heard. He delivered a total of fifty-eight punches within ten short seconds.Adrian was sent shuffling backward from being punched heavily in the chest. ‘Raiden’s too fast…’And he did not stop as he continued to punch at

“What did you say?”Raiden was caught by surprise. His eyes filled with murderous intent as he glared at Adrian standing before him ferociously.Raiden had surmised that Draco, who took his place as Wyvern Peak’s leader, was just enjoying undeserved fame after fighting him earlier. He sneered and said, “Since you’re determined to die, I shall fulfill your wish!”Upon saying that, he suddenly and swiftly shoved his knee at Adrian’s abdomen.In Raiden’s perception, his action would most certainly cause severe injuries to Adrian and make him drop to his knees. He never expected to feel an intense pain in his abdomen that brought his actions to a stop. His knee, which was making its way toward Adrian, could reach its target.Adrian’s knee had already slammed into Raiden’s abdomen, one step quicker than Raiden’s.“Gah!!! Agh!” Raiden screamed out in pain, his mouth agape as he held on to his stomach.Adrian’s strike had temporarily rendered Raiden incapable of fighting. Beyond his co

The air was silent, with only Adrian’s footsteps to be heard.Gloria continued to kneel on the ground, her head lowered and her eyes filled with emotions. Her long hair covered her face, so her expression could not be seen clearly.Mya stood in the distance watching the scene in silence.Soon, Adrian reached Gloria and got down on his knees. He stretched out his shaky right hand to push away the hair on her face, revealing that familiar face of hers that was beautiful yet mature.Gloria raised her head in a daze and looked at Adrian before her.Their eyes met, and countless thoughts filled their minds.Scenes were appearing in Gloria’s mind at this very moment, bits and pieces of her past. Those were the scenes from her past. It felt like memories were rewinding in the depths of her mind.It was the scene of her meeting Adrian for the first time on the training ground. “Hey, are you even a man? How could you be exhausted from this measly training? You should just turn yourself i
