Chapter 553


    Rue’s stubbornness left Adrian feeling helpless.


    At the same time, Juno was out in the living room watching television. But, in truth, her mind was


    already on cloud nine. Over the past few days, while Adrian was teaching her more about Herculean


    Boxing, she had sensed that he wanted her to be like him


    Yet, Rue was very adamant about not wanting her to follow his path.


    “Is something on your mind, Juno?”


    Just as Juno was deep in thought, Samantha walled over and sat next to her with a smile on her face.


    Juno pointed to the kitchen and said, “Brother’s talking with Mother right now, and I think it’s about me.


    Mather sounds really angry.” Samantha looked toward the kitchen and guessed that Adrian was trying


    to persuade Rue. She smiled and asked, “Adrian’s trying to groom you into bing like him. What


    are your thoughts on this?”


    Juna remained silent for a moment. She could understand what Adrian wanted for her.


    ‘Everyone should have a glorious dream they’d like to pursue in life. But, I don’t know what path I


    should choose…”


    At that thought, Juno shook her head. “I don’t know.”


    Samantha stroked Juno’s hair with a smile. “It’s okay, you’ll know which path you’ll want to take in the


    future. All you have to do now is be confident in yourself.”


    Juno nodded.


    At that moment, Adrian walked out of the kitchen with a dejected expression on his face. Rue was


    clearly still against the idea.


    “Did you get a scolding?” Samantha asked with a smile when she saw his expression, but Adrian


    merely put both hands into the air in reply.

    ‘Mother’s really adamant about this… Looks like I’m going to have to put this on the back burner for the


    time being.”


    Over the next few days, Adrian tried to look for someone who would be capable of bing the next


    legate. He had gone through all three million of Wyvern Peak’s soldiers, but none of them seemed like


    a suitable candidate to him.


    Still, he did not give up.


    Three dayster, a piece of news spread throughout Swallowston-the annual church festival of


    Swallowston was around the


    corrier.


    The church festival, simply known as Church Fest, was a gathering held at St. Elmer’s Church of


    Swallowston. ording to history, a general by the name of Saint Elmer once lived in this church.


    Hundreds of years ago, when he arrived at Swallowston as a rogue, he led a group of rogues like


    himself to protect the tens of thousands of civilians in the country. After he fell in battle, the people built


    St. Elmer’s Church in honor of him.


    Now, tomemorate his deeds, Swallowston would hold a gathering every year on his death


    anniversary. The people woulde together and put on a huge show, setting up a stage and singing


    for three whole days.


    The three-day event was set to start the next day. In fact, this event was the biggest and most unique


    throughout Swallwston.


    That evening, Adrian and his family were having dinner when Rue suddenly said, “Church Fest is


    starting tomarrow. Adrian, Sam, I’d like you two toe with me to St. Elmer’s Church to offer


    prayers.”


    Rue was a typical housewife who would go to church alone to pray for the safety of her family.
