One-Eyed Monster

This less than ten-person Thunder Army gave Nakasha and the others a great shock. This uniform marching is an embodiment of their execution.

No wonder Lord Governor treats this team as a treasure. This team not only has formidable combat power but also possesses such strong discipline. From appearance to spirit, they exude a unique aura.

This kind of bearing is not something that can be demonstrated with simple military salutes; it’s a reflection of their own strength.

Nakasha stood rooted to the spot. He initially wanted to see the joke of the Thunder Army, but now he couldn’t laugh anymore.

The aura of these less than ten people had already overshadowed him, the White Robe. Now he felt that the wooden approach of this Thunder Army was correct, and Lord Governor wouldn’t blame them.

Perkins and the others also got off the carriage due to this unexpected turn of events.

After all, no one expected Lord Governor to personally come to the city gate.

It can only be said that a father’s love for his son is so genuine that he overlooks his own prospects...

With so many people at the city gate, word would surely leak, which would greatly encourage his political opponents. However, in Luona, Rostov truly didn’t have many opponents. Many people said that Administrator Louvkat was the biggest threat, but even Louvkat himself didn’t believe that after hearing it.

The ones who truly wanted Rostov out of office were nothing but some merchants, and those merchants were ones who could no longer make big money in Luona. As for Louvkat, he was only concerned about Luona’s finances. He couldn’t stand Rostov spending so much money. As for why there was a long line behind him, he couldn’t explain himself...

Trying to shake Rostov’s status in Luona was almost impossible, and the people would be the first to disagree...

Rostov slowly descended from the carriage, his heart a mix of emotions, but he still had to put on a calm demeanor because he was the master of this Imperial Capital, and no matter what happened, he couldn’t reveal his true feelings.

When the carriage reached the city gate, Rostov took a glance and didn’t notice anything unusual, leaving his heart restless.

If there were something unusual, he might feel a bit relieved, as it would indicate this wasn’t his son causing trouble. Now that there was nothing unusual, the only possibility was that his son was making a fuss about not wanting to enter the city.

Rostov regretted pampering the boy too much before...

However, after all, he was the Governor; he still had to do what needed to be done, such as praising the Thunder Army. He had to do it no matter what, although he also thought the Thunder Army was a bit wooden. But this rule was set by himself, and it was a result discussed with many civil and military authorities.

”You did well, you did well!” Rostov hugged each of the Thunder Army soldiers, which made the citizens present respect the Governor even more, knowing that the Thunder Army refused Young Master Hustace entry into the city right before their eyes.

”Lord Governor, this is what we should do,” said the Thunder Army’s city gate captain.

”Good, good.” Rostov actually wanted to ask what the hell was going on, but as the Governor, he couldn’t rashly ask such a question.

”Young Master Hustace can enter the city, but he kept insisting on bringing in two people without access permits, which is not allowed, leading to the current situation!” explained the Thunder Army’s city gate captain.

The moment he heard about two people without access permits, Rostov relaxed slightly. It seemed the issue lay with these two individuals!

So Rostov turned to look in Hustace’s direction.

He saw Hustace with a haggard look, thin and frail, clearly having suffered hardships, which made him feel very distressed. He wanted to hug his son, but due to his status, he couldn’t be so unrestrained...

He looked further and saw several unfamiliar faces, but those unfamiliar faces all had the same expression: resolute and unyielding.

”Isn’t he your foster father? Why aren’t you excited? You should be running up to hug him,” Igor teased Perkins then.

”But Hustace is his biological son, and you didn’t see him move, did you?” Perkins shrugged, indifferent.

”That’s different. Hustace has always been with the Governor. You, on the other hand, haven’t seen him for years, don’t you feel anything?”

”Uh, there is a little bit in my heart...”

”Then hurry over...” Igor said and gave Perkins a push. He didn’t care if the people there were governors or not; he only cared that it was a father-son reunion now!

With a push, Perkins stumbled and emerged from the crowd, then he was at a loss.

”Brother Perkins, go over!” Hustace also said, making Perkins a bit embarrassed.

Rostov, puzzled, looked at this young man with strange attire but always felt a sense of familiarity between his brows, and it seemed as if his face was filled with the vicissitudes, not so young anymore.

”Well, hehe, ah, haha.” Perkins scratched his head, not knowing what to say.

”Is there anything, young man?” Rostov walked over slowly, though his mind was still mostly on his son.

”Lord Governor, this person has no access permit!” Two Thunder Army soldiers stood blocking the governor, preventing him from taking the risk.

”Hmm?” Governor Rostov stopped his footsteps as well, after all, he wasn’t familiar with this young man!

”Father, he is...”

”Hey, I am an adventurer, an adventurer...” Perkins quickly interrupted Hustace, suddenly thinking that now might not be the right time to reveal his identity as the governor’s acquaintance.

Hustace, Igor, and the others looked at Perkins with surprise, not knowing what Perkins intended to do.

This led Nakasha to feel more like he had to do something.

So Nakasha walked slowly to Lord Governor’s side, whispering a few words in his ear. Rostov raised his eyes, looked at Perkins a few times, and then frowned.

”Alright, I understand the situation now!” Rostov clapped his hands, finding the situation incredulous.

Aevernan, throughout the whole time like a fool, pondered how to help Lord Governor weather this public opinion storm. After all, using the bells to send messages and personally coming to the city gate to greet his son were things that could cause an uproar among the citizens!

”And the other one is your friend, Hustace?” Governor Rostov asked, seemingly without any emotion.

”He is also a friend of all of Luona!” Hustace said loudly, ”He is Tobin Sol’s brother!”

This sentence stunned everyone present, which no one had expected.
