The Invincible Warlord’s Vengeful Awakening by Adam Jonson

Xavier’s sharp gaze flickered with a hint of coldness as he said, “Back then, in his eyes, I was merely a

wastrel. He hid from me the fact that he got Brenda into the Darkflame Legion. To this day… her fate

remains unknown.

“Later on, I made a mistake, and in a fit of anger, he broke my legs and expelled me from the

Cavanaugh family.

“What I resent isn’t him breaking my legs or expelling me from the Cavanaugh family’s home. It’s him

bringing Brenda into the Darkflame Legion. Yara, I’m sure you know what kind of place the Darkflame

Legion is, right?”

Upon hearing this, Yara bit her lip, her fingertips trembling. She kept her head lowered while remaining

silent.

She thought, ‘Indeed, the Darkflame Legion is a horrifying place. That is a place in Avaloria which is

known to be akin to hell. As the most exceptional and mysterious legion in Avaloria, the Darkflame

Legion’s mission is to guard Koruame. And Koruame… It’s rumored to be the darkest, bloodthirsty, and

most chaotic forbidden territory in Avaloria. For people who enter Koruame, death is pretty much

guaranteed.’

Yara’s long eyelashes covered the desolation in her eyes. She made an effort to cheer up and said,

“Xavier, Brenda will surely be fine.”

After that, Yara shifted the conversation’s focus and began talking to Xavier about everyday family

matters.

Half an hour later, after Xavier left, a man dressed in a black suit emerged from behind the curtains.

Yara’s gaze reverted to being cold. She said, “How do you feel?”

“He… he’s too formidable!” the man in black clothes said in a trembling voice. His forehead was

covered in cold sweat.

His name was Ryan Cavanaugh, a guard secretly trained by the Cavanaugh family. He was

responsible for protecting the core members of the Cavanaugh family.

Seeing this, a glint flashed in Yara’s eyes, and she quirked her lips slightly, saying, “Oh… it seems this

brother of mine keeps many things from me.”

After hearing that, Ryan hesitated for a moment before adding, “Miss Yara, I believe he might have

already noticed me just now but pretended not to see me.”

Yara was suddenly taken aback. Upon recovering from her daze, she gripped the palm forcefully,

lowering her head with a faint smile. “I’m so foolish,” she said. “It turns out that my brother has already

given me the answer. I’m really so foolish…”

Immediately, she picked up her phone and dialed a secret number.

Soon, the call was connected, and a friendly voice came from the other end of the line, saying, “Yara,

what made you think of calling me?”

After a momentary pause, Yara smiled and said, “Grandpa, Xavier… no longer needs your protection.”

There was a long silence on the other end of the line. This was then followed by a sigh. “My dear,

starting next month, the Cavanaugh family… will be entirely in your hands.”

As Xavier walked out of the hotel, he glanced back at the room where Yara was.

He said, “Silly girl, you actually dare to test me. Do you think I’m unaware of Grandpa’s intentions?

“Hmph. I’m no longer the idle wastrel from back then. Those who have done the Cavanaugh family

wrong as well as those who have done me wrong, I’ll settle the score one by one when I reign in

Starhaven.”

At the Pemberley Mansion, Jenson was playing with mud by the front gate.

Upon seeing Xavier return, his eyes lit up instantly. “Daddy, come and play with me!” he said.

Upon bending down, Xavier saw a small cat drawn on the ground.

He then asked, “Jenson, why doesn’t the cat you drew have whiskers?”

As Xavier spoke, he dipped his hand in the excess water stains and added whiskers to the cat that was

missing them.

The little one took a deep breath. He then looked at Xavier and said earnestly, “Daddy, I didn’t pee just

now.”

Xavier was left speechless.

In the evening, perhaps tired from playing during the day, the little one fell asleep early.

In the living room, Xavier looked at Lucretia, who was still busy with something.

Ever since returning from Anna’s birthday celebration, he noticed that Lucretia kept avoiding him. Her

action could be intentional, or it could be unintentional.

Thinking about this, he walked up and immediately lifted Lucretia from behind.

“What are you doing?” Lucretia said. “Let go of me. Let go of me right now!”

Lucretia struggled vigorously, but her strength was no match for Xavier.

As they were at home, she was only wearing a thin set of pajamas. A large area of her flawless skin

was exposed. On her shapely and slender legs, she wore a pair of black pantyhose.

That slender waist, which could be held with a single hand, had not changed in the slightest due to

childbirth. On the contrary, the already ample bosom appeared even more prominent.

Coupled with the fact that they kept moving in a disorderly manner, the sudden exposure of her body

caused Xavier’s mind to wander as he looked at it.

Even though he became the live-in son-in-law of the Pemberley family in a bit of a daze a year ago, in

this past year, there had not been a substantial breakthrough in his relationship with Lucretia.

“Smack.” In a moment of heightened emotion, Xavier involuntarily landed a slap on Lucretia’s raised

buttocks.

“Mm.”

Lucretia whimpered, her legs trembling. She was frightened, so much so that she immediately dared

not move.

At the same time, that flawless face flushed with such intensity that it appeared as though it could drip

blood.

Suppressing his turbulent emotions, Xavier spoke earnestly. “Tell me. Why have you been deliberately

avoiding me recently?”

Following that, he lifted Lucretia at the waist and settled her sideways on his lap.

Then, he placed both hands behind her back, clasping her like a pair of iron tongs, rendering her

unable to move.

Then, the two of them assumed the posture of a woman on top and a man on bottom.

Lucretia turned her head, not daring to look into Xavier’s eyes. She stuttered, “Y-you… please put me

down first. My legs… are numb.”

“As long as you tell me why you’ve been avoiding me, I’ll put you down,” Xavier said.

With that said, Xavier gently shifted his body a little.

Sitting in Xavier’s embrace, Lucretia immediately felt that something was off due to the posture

between the two of them which had a romantic undertone.

She said, “That is…”
