Chapter 768
In Yatburg, Andrius was administering acupuncture to himself.
The fake death he had staged before only temporarily suppressed the insect.
After using that unique method of suppression, the insect rebounded even more intensely. Andrius‘ body was
growing increasingly weak.
“Andrius…”
Like a young wife, Halle held a towel to wipe the sweat from Andrius‘ forehead.
When she saw his weakened state, she felt so distressed that she wished the insect was in her body instead. That
way, it would spare him from this situation.
Ding…
Just then, Andrius‘ phone rang.
Halle immediately picked it up and handed it to him, making sure not to look at the screen.
It was a message from the First War God, Conrad Gibbs. “Andrius, I heard that you’re infected by an insect. There
happens to be a skilled insect master in the prison I oversee who might be able to help.”
An insect master!
If that person was captured by the First War God and imprisoned in the Southern Wilds Prison, they must be

“I’ll go there now,” Andrius replied to Conrad.
Then, he packed his belongings and headed to Yatburg Airport while accompanied by Noir and Halle. From there,
they departed straight to the Southern Wilds.
Just as their private jet took off, an aircraft from Kiyoto landed at the airport.
A man disembarked from the plane. He was none other than Marvin Kramer. He led the imperial envoy and arrived
outside the Lycantroops‘ headquarters.
“The emperor has issued an edict. All commanders of the Lycantroops are to receive the edict!”
The commanders exchanged glances, not knowing what scheme Registus was up to.
However, the emperor’s edict held significant weight, so they quickly gathered.
Marvin presented the edict and read it aloud, “The Western Nations wish for our harm and invaded our territory
with overwhelming force.
“Fortunately, the Lycantroops‘ unity has thwarted the schemes of the Western Nations with minimal cost It is truly
an extraordinary achievement. Such a momentous achievement that stabilizes and supports the nation should be
celebrated grandly
“Thus, on the night of the upcoming full moon, I invite all commanders to join the imperial envoy to Serenity
Garden for a grand celebration to express my joy.”
The Eight Commanders exchanged glances, bewildered by the situation. They already knew that Registus and the
Second War God were up to no good during this war, causing them much trouble. Now, they were publicly
announcing a victory celebration…
Something felt off. It was very strange.
Fenrir stepped forward and said, “Mr. Kramer, the Western border has just settled down after the war. We need to
guard the borders and can’t afford to be complacent.
“Furthermore, there are a series of policies that we need to push due to the territorial concessions from the
Western Nations. We really can’t leave.
“I think it’s better to call off this celebration.”
He could not figure out Registus‘ intentions, and the Wolf King was absent, so he decided to reject it. It was a
prudent choice.
“Yes, Mr. Kramer, we still need to guard the borders. There’s no need for a banquet.”
“Mr. Kramer, it’s easier to win territory than to keep it. We mustn’t let our guard down.”
“Mr. Kramer, forget about the banquet. Please return.”
Marvin anticipated this situation and smiled, advising, “Gentlemen, it’s customary to celebrate after a victory. This
will uplift the people’s spirits and reward the soldiers too.
“If you don’t attend, the citizens of Florence might think that the emperor is neglecting those who contributed. That
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwould be bad.
“We wouldn’t want our citizens to feel a gap in their hearts toward Florence, right?”
Fenrir could not refute that. The Wolf King had always taught them to protect and serve the people. He exchanged
a look with the other commanders and realized that everyone was also helpless.
Thus, he agreed
“How about this? Mr. Kramer, I’ll have the commanders who contributed the most in this battle attend.”
Then, he called over the high–ranking generals under their command.
On one hand, it was because they truly could not leave their posts. Second, showcasing their subordinates would
increase their prestige, so it was a good move.
Merit and fame did not mean much to them.
The Lycantroops were simple and unpretentious in that manner.
Afterward, a general under Fenrir, Callan Gills, led the high–ranking officers who made significant contributions in
this battle and followed Marvin to Kiyoto.
In Serenity Garden, Registus had already arranged the timing for the grand banquet.
“The Lycantroops officers have arrived…”
A loud shout from the guards outside could be heard.
Registus smiled brightly. “Enter!”
