The journey took five hours and a few hundred kilometers.
Nadine had no idea where Adrian was taking her. She tried to ask, but he gave no reply
After driving into the mountain forest, Nadine could not hold back anymore. She said to Adrian with a
frown, ” I’m about to wet myself.”

car.
Adrian instantly stopped the car. Nadine turned her head and looked at the surroundings. “Not a single
toilet is to be found in this dested mountain. Where am I supposed to do my business?”
“There’s no one in the forest so no one will see you if you go in the bush,” Adrian said.
“Are you even human?” Nadine asked.
“You may consider me as not human. Go, but keep an eye out. There are poisonous snakes here.”
“Where the heck are we?
“Mount Syrax.”
“Why did you take me here?”
“Are you going or not? We’re leaving if you’re not.”
Nadine swiftly dove behind a bush and her eyes darted about out of fear of finding animals or insects
underneath her. She freaked out for nothing
She returned to the car and said to Adrian, “Weren’t you worried that I’d run away, sir? You seem pretty
at ease to let me wander around alone.”
“You’re not going anywhere,” Adrian stated confidently.
“Why’s that?” Nadine asked, confused.

Adrian chuckled and turned down a small forest path. “That’s because you won’t make it out of Mount
Syrax on your might even end up bing an animal’s dung.”
“You should stop talking.” Nadine could already feel a shiver down her spline.
Ten minutester, Adrian pulled over atst.
They had stopped by a t expanse ofnd hallway up the mountain. Acres upon acres of the
surroundings had been nted with flower shrubs. Thousands of flowers bloomed and surrounded a
normal–sized cemetery located in the center of the
meadow.
Nadine’s jaw dropped when she saw the lush man–made garden on the mountain. There was a small
bridge over a nearby flowing stream. Coupled with the blooming flowers, thendscape was
breathtaking.
On the other hand, there were tombstones in the cemetery surrounded by this wide span of flowers,
appearing very mysterious
“Wh–What is this ce?”
Nadine’s attention was drawn to the view before her and waspletely stunned. Adrian patted her
shoulder and walked through the flower shrubs toward the cemetery
In the end, Adrian stopped at the fringes of the lot. Nadine followed him and gazed into the horizon.
There were tens of thousands of tombstones and a story was carved into each of them.
“What is this ce, sir?” Nadine asked in astonishment as she turned her head toward lin
Adrian nced at Nadine and said, “The deceased buried here are all soldiers of Wyvern Peak, and
there are groups of them that share the same name. For example, there are more than two hundred
people by the name of ‘Ace Dark‘ here.”
“Wh–What do you mean? Are they Wyvern Peak’s soldiers who shared the same name? How could it
be that they’re all dead and buried here?” Nadine asked in astonishment.
Adrian turned around and looked at Nadine. “It’s not a coincidence. Every deceased person here went
through Wyvern Peak’s training and was determined to be its next leader. However, they all died.
“Have you noticed the pattern yet?”
Nadine shook her head to express her confusion.
Adrian pointed at the cemetery. “There are more than ten thousand people buried here and they have
the same name. They died at different times and at different ages. This shows the people who killed
them have a hit list.N?velDrama.Org ? 2024.
“For example, there’s a person by the name of “Ace Dark” on their hit list, and the killers were unsure of
who the actual person is so they killed everyone in Wyvem Peak by the name of “Ace Dark‘
“Do you understand what I’m saying?” Adrian asked.
Nadine’s jaw dropped and she came to understand what Adrian meant.
She was about to reply when Adrian said, “I counted the tombstones here and found that there are two
hundred and thirty- two people by the name of “Adrian Xander. On the other hand, my name is Adrian
Xander.”
Nadine’s entire body shook and she was shocked upon hearing this.
