Chapter 274
Samantha managed to slip into dreand thanks to Adrian consoling her.
The next morning, a series of changes happened in Swallowston. Unlike before, there were people
from the Battle Warrior Department patrolling the streets.
These patrols were tightening Swallowston’s defenses, causing all the other citizens to be afraid that
something major was about to happen.
That morning, Samantha left home after she was done with breakfast
Adrian was about to step out with her when Rue stopped him.

“Can I have a word with you, Adrian?” Rue said.
As Adrian stopped and looked at Rue in confusion, she grabbed his hands and said, “I saw a lot of
people from the department on the streets when I was at the market this morning. Is it true that
Southrive’s outer region is going to fight the Luposians?”
In the past, Roe would never be bothered about such things, but things were different now. This meant
that her son was not going to be able to lead a normal life anymore.
Adrian could tell that Rue was worried, so he replied, “Don’t worry, Mother. It’s only a minor squabble.
They won’t do anything serious.”
Even so, Rue was still slightly worried. Adrian tried to console her by saying, “Rx, Mother. I’ve got
everything under control.”
Despite the fact that her son was the legate, Rue did not feel proud of herself. On the contrary, she was
very afraid.
Heaving a sigh, Rue chose not to say anything more
Adrian left home and drove toward Battle Warrior Tower.
Recently, Lucas had apprehended the Lupons at Southrive Port. Yet, the Lupasians had always
been excellent at mng ns with their assassins, so there was a chance that Swallowston, perhaps
all of Southrive, was already filled with enemy
assassins
If these people were to wreak havoc, the damage they would do to Southrive would be unprecedented.
Hence, the department had been doing everything it could to investigate the matter, while Adrian was
following up very closely.
Just as Adrian was arriving at his destination, someone rushed out onto the middle of the road and
stopped him. He instantly stepped on the brakes, rolled down his window, and asked, “Are you mad,
you little brat?! Have your injuries bealed already?”
The person who jumped into the middle of the road was none other than Harry Cole, the man who had
been pestering Adrian into taking him as his apprentice
Barry had only just been discharged from the hospital, yet he was all smiles as he ran to the side of
Adrian’s car and hopped in.
“Master, many Luposians have been infiltrating Swallowston recently. Let me join in on the operation to
eradicate their assassins!
“I’m serious about this. I’ve always wanted to be of service to the department,” Barry said.
“Give me one good reason I should take you in,” Adrian said as he started up his car and continued on
to his destination.
“I’d like to make something out of my life. Is that a good enough reason? Harry asked Adrian.
“Really now…”
Barry continued.” My mother’s been ill for most of her life, and her greatest wish is to see me be
sessful. On the other hand, it’s my dream to be able to be a sellier like you.”
Adrian turned his head to look at Harry as he stopped the car. “Bing a soldier isn’t supposed to be
a dream. You should think about how you can earn more money to Lake care of your mother rather
than pestering me instead.
“Now, get out of my car. Adrian gestured.
“But sir, I really want to…”
“I’m going to punch you if you don’t get out,” Adrian said as he waved his fist threateningly.
Looking dejected, Barry got out of the car.
Adrian took out a stack of cash and hurled it out the window toward Barry
“Take it. Move to another city and find a job more suitable for you. I believe that everyone should hold
earning money as their goal, not bing some kind of her.”
