Chapter 772
“To hell with your investigation!”
Noir was instantly infuriated. He rushed forward and threw a punch, knocking the envoy down. Then, he
climbed on top of the envoy and started raining a flurry of blows.
“How dare you kill the Lycantroops‘ officers?”
Bam, bam, bam!
“They’re all meritorious officers who have shed blood for Florence!”
Smack, smack, smack!
“Now, you want to summon the Wolf King back to Kiyoto? Are you planning to kill him as well?”
Boom, boom, boom!
“Go on, then! Investigate to your heart’s content!”
Thud, thud, thud!
Noir erupted completely. He did not care about the envoy’s identity or the situation. He just wanted to beat him up.
The attendants from Kiyoto, who were behind the envoy, were scared out of their wits by Noir’s appearance. They
did not dare to step forward to intervene.
“Noir, stop!”
Andrius‘ command made Noir freeze.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWith his order, Noir reluctantly stopped.
“Wolf King…” Noir looked at Andrius, hesitating to speak.
Andrius glanced at the envoy and said in a low voice, “The Lycantroops‘ officers were killed. I intend to hold
Registus accountable. I’ll go with them to Kiyoto now.”
Then, he made a motion to leave.
“Wolf King, you can’t!”
“No, Andrius!”
Noir and Halle spoke at the same time.
“Wolf King, the emperor has already killed Callan and the others ruthlessly. It’s clear he intends to fall out with the
Lycantroops. If you go now, I’m afraid…”
Noir was anxious. His expression was filled with the concerns of a captain of the Lycantroops” private guard,
Moreover, his worries would likely come true.
“Andrius…”
Halle stepped forward to hold Andrius‘ hand and said softly. “Captain Black Wolf is right. You’re already in poor
health. If the emperor schemes against you again..
At that point, her eyes filled with tears, and some of them fell from her clear eyes.
“Phew…” Andrius let out a long sigh and gazed toward the direction of Kiyoto outside the window. He said calmly,
“I’m well aware of the dangers, and my life will be in jeopardy.
“However, the loyal spirits of the Lycantroops must not be wronged.
“As the Wolf King and their leader, I will still retrieve their bodies even if it means being crushed to pieces and never
being able to return!”
Due to his weakness, his voice was not particularly loud.
However, it overwhelmed all other sounds in this small room. It was like a howl breaking through the wilderness, or
a noble standing tall.
Noir and Halle fell silent.
Everyone had something they fought for. There was no doubt that the Lycantroops was the most cherished thing in
Andrius‘ heart. Throughout history, there were countless patriots in Florence.
Andrius was insignificant among them, but he still stood tall.
“Andrius…” Conrad looked at him with concern. “Do you need my help?”
Andrius smiled wryly. “This is a battle between me and the emperor. I brought so many Lycantroops officers into it
and caused them to die in vain. I won’t be able to find peace at night when I sleep.
“You’ve always stayed away from politics. How can I drag you into this? Just your thoughts are enough.”
Conrad frowned but did not say much, merely patting Andrius‘ shoulder.
Since he decided to go to Kiyoto, the journey to Murrfield had to be put on hold. Andrius naturally had to make
arrangements. “Noir, return to the Western border and prepare everything.”
“Now, whether it’s within Florence or internationally, the situation is turbulent and uncertain. Chaos might

“If anything happens, you and the Eight Commanders will take control of the Lycantroops. Fight for the prosperity of
the nation and the well–being of the people.
“Conrad and Dax are both people who can be trusted. If there are situations you can’t handle, you can seek their
help. Remember, don’t become a puppet of power.”
Andrius‘ words were not so much advice as they were arrangements for what might happen.
Even a burly man like Noir could not help but grow teary when he heard those words. “Wolf King, can you not go?”
Andrius forced a smile as his answer. Then, he waved his hand. “Go.”
“Yessir!”
Noir’s heels instinctively clicked together as he saluted Andrius, then he quickly turned and left.
At that moment, his tears finally fell without restraint. The iron–blooded man actually cried at that
moment.
How was one supposed to express the grief of a loved one charging toward death?
“Andrius…”
Halle’s face was tear–stricken as she stepped forward to embrace Andrius. She rose on her tiptoes and kissed his
lips before releasing him.
However, her voice was firm like iron and stone. “I’ll be waiting for you at the Western border. The Western border
is filled with sandstorms that will take away my youth, but even if my youth has faded and my hair has turned
white…”
