The Return of the War Legate

Chatper 605

Chapter 605

“War Legate Achelous?” Nadine was completely stunned. She never dreamt about the possibility that her father, who was dead, might have been a legate of Wyvern Peak.

In fact, it felt surreal to her.

Nadine took a deep breath and pulled Adrian to her bedside. “Sit, Adrian. Is it true my dad was a legate? He can’t possibly be War Legate Achelous, can he?

“Up until I met you, I’ve been supporting Uncle Chase the whole time.”

Adrian looked at Nadine’s anxious expression and put his hands in the air. All he had was speculation, but that might sometimes end up being true.

Realizing that Nadine was on the verge of tears, he said, “Calm down. Let me investigate before we jump to conclusions.”

Nadine nodded her head profusely. “Thank you, Big Brother. Please make some calls as soon as you can.”

Nadine was so anxious that she even called Adrian “Big Brother.”

He shot her a glare and said, “Don’t call me that. I’m four years younger than you.‘

“You’re still a big brother in my eyes. All men are like big brothers to women,” Nadine said.

“Nonsense!”

After that, Adrian dropped the subject and called Lucas–the battle warrior he had handpicked. Although Wyvern Peak was dissolved, its headquarters remained intact.

After the call connected, Lucas said, “How may I be of service, Legate?”

“I have a task for you. Help me look into Wyvern Peak’s history and see if you’re able to find out who War Legate Achelous

actually was.”

Lucas was startled for a moment before he replied, “You’ve got to be kidding me, sir. How am I supposed to do that? Forget War Legate Achelous, even your name isn’t in Wyvern Peak’s records. Why are you looking into this all of a sudden?”

The names of Wyvern Peak’s legates have never been recorded to avoid any of their enemies threatening or harming their families. Hence, only a few internal staff knew of their true identities. Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

‘It’s been thirty years since War Legate Achelous was active, so there definitely won’t be any history on him.‘

At that thought, Adrian replied, “Look into the veterans from thirty years ago. I believe those who were his subordinates would at least know something ”

After a moment of silence, Lucas asked, “Did something happen? Daniel said you’re looking into seers and your investigation took you to Southrive.”

“I’ve found out why there have been groups of people with the same name being killed consistently over decades. However, I’m still looking for the perpetrator behind all this. It’s proving to be a rather difficult task.”

“And your investigation has led you to War Legate Achelous?” Lucas asked.

“Rather than putting it that way, I suspect he had some intel. I think that he was hiding the truth about something thirty

years ago.”

“And this has got something to do with seers?” Lucas asked once more.

“Yes, it’s also a proplucy. As far as I kasow, the prediction in this prophecy about me has come true. Someone’s following this prophecy and killing off all those who might end up becoming the legate of Wyvern Peak”

Lucas replied, “I’m quite sure this has something to do with Chase Gardner from Novemton.”

“That’s something we can only determine after we’ve found evidence. I need you to look into this matter and inform me the moment you find anything.”

“Okay, sir.”
