Chapter 467


    The next morning was a bright and sunny day.


    It was a long holiday weekend so Samantha did not need to go to work.


    The first thing Adrian wanted to do was head to the Battle Warrior Department. The SK incident that


    had turned the night upside down woulde to an end today,


    Samantha insisted on following him because she was bored at home.


    Adrian could not bring himself to reject her so he took Samantha with him to the Battle Warrior


    Department.


    Adrian and Samantha walked into the Battle Warrior Tower of Swallowston. It was her first time


    entering the building as War Legate Draco’s wife


    She felt that the Battle Warrior Tower was especially cordial at this moment and she figured that it was


    due to Adrian’s identity.


    Daniel, Mya, Serpent, Magus, and the others were in a meeting. Adrian made his way to the meeting


    room right away. The group sprung to their feet at the sight of him.


    “War Legate Draco!”


    “War Legate Draco!”

    Adrian beckoned at Daniel and said, “Bring Tanner and Byron. I want to see them.”


    Daniel waved at his subordinates to bring these men.


    Adrian took a seat on the sofa and a staff member served two cups of coffee. Samantha was unfamiliar


    with the ce so she stood by his side, not having the courage to sit.


    It did not take long before Tanner and Byron, who were tightly bound, were brought before Adrian. They


    were made to kneel and were so terrified that they were shaking profusely.


    Hyron raised his head and said with a terrified expression, “Legate, this matter is unrted to me. You


    have to investigate this thoroughly. I’m innocent!”


    Byron’s face was tear–streaked. He was trying to put up a final struggle, thinking that he would be fine


    if he could make a clean break from the Luposians now


    But it was apparent that Tanner was not nning on letting him off the hook. He sneered and said,


    “Byron, had you not assisted me behind the scenes, how could I have been capable of doing all this


    myself?”


    “Don’t you dare make unfounded usations of me, Tanner!” roared Byron.


    “Please investigate this matter thoroughly, sir, I’ve always been loyal to the country,” Byron pleaded


    with Adrian as he cried.


    Adrian took a sip of his coffee as he observed the two people kneeling before him. Both of them had


    assumed an arrogant mannerism before this, yet they were behaving like defeated cowards now.


    Adrian had already seen through Byron from the start. He chuckled and said, “Byron, olt, Bryon. I’ll


    spare your life if you tell the truth. If you refuse, you’ll die. Choose “


    Byron was stunned upon hearing Adrian’s remark. He had not expected Adrian would question in this


    manner and wondered if Adrian was giving him an out.


    Byron did not consider much as he hastily said, “Sir, I’ll tell you the truth. I’ll tell the whole truth. I took


    Tamer’s money and helped them in their operations from behind the scenes. Please spare my life on


    the ount that we’re from the same mothend, sir!


    Byron began to bow over and over.


    Adrian said, “Byron, this was not how you conducted yourself previously. Why do people like you only


    learn your ce in the world after creating a mess that has gone too far?”


    “I was wrong! I was wrong!” Byron cried, “Sir, you said you’d spare my life if I told you the truth. I’m


    begging you, please…”


    Adrian nodded and said, “That is indeed what I said. I may have spared your life if you had chosen to


    tell the truth on your own initiative. However, you only told the truth after being threatened. So, you still


    have to die.” “What?” Byron was shocked. He roared, “You’re going back on your own word, War


    Legate Draco!”
