Chapter 252
Kendall’s class became a stage for Adrian, while all the students listened intently to the story of a wheelchair–bound girl’s father who fought in the war,
Cold Steel was a soldier from Wyvern Peak who may not have had a very high rank, but he was indeed a soldier who sacrificed himself in the battle against Luposia, Hence, his story was still fresh in Adrian’s
mind.
During that class, Adrian told everyone the story of how a soldier from Wyvern Peak fought passionately to resist the invasion of Luposia, and everyone listened intently.
Juno was in tears. She never knew that her father was such a heroic, courageous, and fearless man.
At the end of the story. Adrian said, “During the final push to drive the enemy away, Cold Steel received an order to provide support to the fourth squad at Northdesert–an assault squad, so to speak.
“But when he and his squad entered the desert area, the Luposians ambushed them. Cold Steel led his squad to slay three hundred men and they fought valiantly till their deaths.”
That was where the story ended.
Adrian looked at the students below the podium and said, “Juno’s father was a brave and fearless soldier, so let’s all give her a round of applause on his behalf, class!”
All of the students looked at Juno and clapped their hands when Adrian said this, with Adrian joining in as well. Meanwhile, Juno sat there, frozen stiff. She felt as though she had been a part of her father’s world
for a moment.
Even Kendall was clapping his hands, and the commotion went on for quite a long time.
When it finally stopped, Adrian gestured for everyone to remain quiet before he said, “Class, I’ve just told you all stories about Juno’s father, so I’m free to answer any questions you may have.”
At that moment, a little girl stood up. “Sir, you said that Juno’s father was your subordinate, so who are you? How do you know all these things?”
Adrian smiled and replied. “That’s because I’m War Legate Draco.”
The entire classroom was in an uproar when they heard this, even Kendall shut his eyes.
The students began to chatter among themselves.
“He’s the legate?”
“Seriously?”
“Why would he be in our school?”
The students were rather skeptical.
The girl who asked that question stood up once again and said, “Do you have anything to prove your identity, sir? I heard that the legate owns a medallion. One that allows him to command the millions of soldiers at Wyvern Peak.”
Adrian smiled before proceeding to take out his medallion.
“She’s right. The War Legate Medallion is indeed capable of commanding the soldiers at Wyvern peak. I will satisfy all of your curiosities today by passing around my medallion.”
He then handed over the medallion to a student in the front row. A few others scooched over for a look before it was passed to the row behind them.
All of them took a really good look at the medallion, which had a falcon, a dragon, a unicorn, and a
phoenix engraved on it. After all, the War Legate Medallion was one of a kind.
“Could the last student please return the medallion to me? It’s useless in your hands and it might even put
your lives in danger just by carrying it,” Adrian said as he smiled
A plump little bay walked up to Adrian and handed over the medallion with both hands.
“Thank you” Adrian said with a smile.
