Before Yorick could finish speaking, his head was shattered by a punch.
Blood spurted, staining the night sky red.
“Are you okay?”
Ashley looked at the outstretched hand in front of her, a mixture of skepticism and curiosity evident in
her gaze. “Are you Avaloria’s Warlord?”
He was so young.
While questioning him, she extended her fair hand.
“Ouch!” Ashley suddenly cried out, her expression contorted in pain. She had just stood up, but her
lack of balance caused her to stumble and fall backyard.
Xavier quickly caught her around the waist.
“I will take you back, he said, his voice calm and reassuring, as he guided her toward the Frostfire
Legion camp with. determined steps.
“Swish!”
The wind roared in their ears, but none of it touched Ashley’s face. She was shielded by the protective
presence of Xavier.
In that moment, she found solace and security, her worries momentarily forgotten as she sought refuge
in the embrace of his sturdy frame.
Thump. Thump.”
Ashley listened intently to the powerful heartbeat beside her ear, its rhythm resonating within her. The
sound of Xavier’s heartbeat, strong and steady, captivated her senses, filling her with a mix of awe and
vulnerability,
Her heartbeat inexplicably accelerated. She was very nervous.

signaling their arrival.
“We’re here

“Wait..

The night wind blew across Xavier’s face, ruffling his hair as he stood like a stoic statue, his presence
unwavering. Only his lips moved as he replied. “A passerby
With that, he disappeared into the vast expanse of the night.
Watching Xavier’s receding figure, Ashley pursed her thin red lips, determination etched on her face. I

“Ashley.”
Jacob approached and saw Ashley standing there in a daze, his brow furrowing with concern. He
couldn’t help but notice state and felt compelled to inquire. Are you injured!”
“Yes, Ashley nodded, a smile of contentment spreading across her face. “Thanks to my injury.
She turned and walked toward the Frostline Legion camp, limping
Watching Ashley hobble away, Jacob frowned more deeply. “Why is she so happy when she’s injured?”
Jacob wondered aloud, unable to comprehend the source of her unwavering joy amidst physical
discomfort.
That night, the Northern Territory battlefield descended into an unusual state of restlessness.
Four Warriors from the Thirteen Nations Alliance had perished overnight, while one remained missing,
casting a somber shadow over the alliance.
“Damn it, who killed Mr. Beauregard, and who kidnapped Yvette!”
In Eldoria’s camp, Quentin roared in madness.
Filled with rage and frustration, he vented his anguish by smashing everything within his reach. The
room turned into a chaotic mess mirroring his turmoil.
“Damn it, who killed Solana’s great Warrior Yorick!
Warriors are
“Holy crap! Both of Freiton’s Warriors are dead!
Another cry of despair echoed through the Thirteen Nations Alliance as the news of the fallen Warriors
reached the ears of those who had fought alongside them. Alron, the supreme commander, was now
furious.
“Alron, what happened tonight must be because a Warlord of Avaloria appeared.” Itherael’s voice
resonated with a calm certainty as he analyzed the situation with a discerning eye.
Alron madded solemnly, acknowledging the truth in Itherael’s words.

any Avalori Warlord or even an ordinary Warrior.
Even a single Warrior-level powerhouse had not been encountered

decided to find a job to pass the time.
She was also waiting for Navier to come back.
“Lucretia.”
In the interview room, a voice rang out.
Hearing that, Lucretia entered the room and saw an enchanting woman in a long dress.
She looked about 25 or 26, with a fair face, delicate eyebrows, attractive eyes, and a graceful smile at
the corner of her mouth.
A pair of well-endowed brea is adorned her figure, which was even more impressive than Lucretia’s.

legs with a fair and glossy glow.

financial manager.

“Oh, by the way, next week, we will hold a diamond auction in Oceanheim. This is Diamonds Group’s
first business activity entering Avaloria Lucretia, prepare for it.”
“Okay, Lucretia said and then turned and left.
In the room, Cynthia picked up a cigarette, lit it, and took a deep puff her expression trance-like

She murmured to herself. “You want me to train her to be the successor of Diamonds Group? Okay, I
promise you.
“I once swore that if you saved my life, I would be your shadow forever, blocking all the enemies behind

“Lucretia, don’t let me down
