The Return of the War Legate

Chapter 696

“Such as..” said Adnan

Mya took a sip of her beer and a bite of her brisket. She pouted her little lips and said in a flirtatious tone, “I just couldn’t bring myself to retire every time I make plans to because of a certain someone. In truth, I planned on majoring in Navillian and linguistics but instead, I joined the frontline for you.

“I didn’t expect you to become Wyvern Peak’s leader back when we were in ACMC However, I always feel a connection between us, and I chose to join you at the frontline because of this connection.

“After the previous legate fell in battle, you got promoted. You assigned me to Lucas and that made me rather unwilling and unhappy. Were you aware of that? I felt that you had abandoned me after all that we had been through over the years.”

Adrian smiled upon hearing Mya’s statements.

“Do you know why I assigned you to Lucas?” he asked.

“Why? So you can get rid of me? So that I’m aware of the overwhelming odds against me? Or is it because of Samantha?” Mya asked.

“None of the above.” Adrian shook his head. “At that time, you lost to Raquel by one point during the battle warrior assessment. I was worried that you couldn’t take the blow. I was worried that you’d make a mistake and be swayed by emotions during the battle at the frontline. Lucas was in Swallowston at the time, so I transferred you to him. In truth. I did it to protect you.”

“However, we’ve been side by side for so many years. We went through training together, endured hardships together, and even fought wars together. Don’t you know what sort of person I am?” Mya refuted.Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

“It’s precisely due to my understanding of you that I transferred you to Lucas in Swallowston. I’m going to tell you the truth. I understand you better than Samantha. You came from an influential family, and you can’t change your heiress‘ temperament

“But I-“Mya pouted.

Adrian painted at Mya and said, “Ser? I’ve only just begun to talk and you’re losing your temper already. Am I wrong in what I said?”

Mya lowered her head and kept quiet.

Adrian said smilingly. “There are times when one should see more than just the surface. You’ll always be a child to me.”

“Why? I’ve been through so many years of life–and–death struggles and engaged in many wars. I’ve matured. I’ve grown,” said Mya in disgruntlement.

Adrian continued to shake his head.

“It’s possible that you’re a mature, feminine goddess in the eyes of other men. However, you’re just a child to me,” Adrian said in full confidence.

“Give me a reason,” Mya said.

“Because you can’t leave me,” Adrian said.

-But I

“Through the Battle of Raging River, Battle of Skyriver, the Grand Desert, the Dense Forest, and all the differently sized battles, when did I not carry you out of the trenches and find you on the brink of death? Were you aware that you always subconsciously depended on me?” asked Adrian

Mya lowered her head and did not speak

Adrian said, “You always think you can do whatever you want and I’ll come to your rescue all this time. You defied orders. during the Battle of Raging River and didn’t retreat because, in your mind, I’d come to your aid. As a result, you were severely

Injured that time and from then on, couldn’t bear children.

“Do you know why you lost to Raquel in the battle warrior assessment? This is precisely the reason.”

Mya reached up to wipe away her tears as Adrian patted her shoulder with a smile.

“However, none of that is important. You can get married when the war is over.”

Mya took a sip of the beer, turned her head, and said, “No man is going to marry a barren woman. Even if he did, the marriage won’t last long.”

“If no man wants to marry you, come to me and I’ll take you in,” Adrian said, “However, you still need to behave yourself for now and follow me down this path.”
