Barry sniggered. I knew I was quick–witted!”
He caught up to Adrian and said, “Sir, I’ve admired you for a long time and I wish to seek your mentorship Will you take me as your apprentice?”
Adrian simply smiled and ignored the lad
Barry hastily added, “Sir, I’m not seeking to learn for nothing. I have information to offer in exchange!*
Adrian checked the time and said as he continued to walk, “You have thirty seconds.”
“I know how the Luposians entered the country,” Barry said hastily.
Adrian came to a halt when he heard Barry’s words.
Barry staggered and bumped into him.
Adrian turned around and asked, “How did they enter the country?”
Barry said, “I do not have solid evidence, but I do have a theory. The case of Luposians entering Southrive is closely related to Southrive’s River family.
“The
Rivers have a business deal with the Luposians and it is said that the Rivers profited a few million dollars from the deal.
“You have to believe me, sir!”
Barry chattered endlessly.
Adrian was rather surprised but he could tell that Barry was not messing around.
He said, “What do you base your speculations on? No matter how bold the Rivers are, they wouldn’t have the courage to make a deal with the Luposians in this manner, right?”
Barry said, “The Rivers want money and the Luposians have money. Why wouldn’t they make a deal? In addition, can the Luposians enter the country without coordinating with someone inside Southrive?”
“You have a point. Go on.” Adrian beckoned Barry to continue speaking.
“It was a dark, stormy night. The rain was pouring down..” Barry appeared to be recalling deeply.
Upon hearing these words, Adrian walked away because he did not have the time to waste on the lad’s
nonsensical talk.
Noticing that Adrian was leaving once again, Barry went after him. “I’m not done yet, sir!”
“Believe me when I say that I can beat you up if you keep talking about nonsense like that.”
“I won’t, I won’t,” Barry hastily said, “I witnessed some River family members arriving at the Southrive Port the other night and unloading some cargo. Also, I saw Luposians getting off the ship with my own eyes.
“I followed them all the way here after seeing that. However, I don’t have solid evidence to prove that the Rivers did it.”
“Did the cargo consist of weapons?” Adrian asked.
“It’s very likely. I don’t have any other explanation but this. I speculate that the Rivers received a payment from the Luposians to coordinate their entrance to Southrive in secret.
“You must look into this matter properly, sir!”

“Sure!” Adrian nodded. Thank you for your advice. I will continue to investigate. Will you leave now?” Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
Barry shook his head. “I’m here to seek your mentorship, sir. Will you take me as your apprentice? My mother’s biggest hope is to see me succeed in life!”
Adrian made a hand gesture that indicated the impossibility of him taking Barry in. He smiled and said, ” All right, do whatever you want, and stop following me.”
“I’m serious, sir. I sincerely wish to be your apprentice and want to join you on the battlefield.
“It is my mother’s dream and is also mine.”
Barry chased after Adrian again.
He had already boasted to the villagers in his hometown that he would return as a general.
Barry’s original plan was to seek out the legate. Instead, he had witnessed the scene between the Rivers and the Luposians at the Southrive Port and decided to follow them.
He asked around when he arrived at Southrive and found out that the legate was at Swallowston. Barry was excited upon learning that.
