NovelEnglishChapter 1696 Chapter 1696 001's Return Edward, having hidden away from the world for days, now wore a twisted expression. The web of schemes he had once woven within Hawford had now cto nothing.
Everything had been prepared. The perfect vessel had been chosen for his lord's descent, and the medium had set up the Wraithlord Transformation Formation. Yet, it was all ruined by Lucas and the Quinnell family.
Edward couldn't help but wonder when his associates in Kingbourne had stalled on their tasks. Instead of pulling the Kellers down, Lucas had risen to greater heights in just a year.

Little did Edward know that his postulation would have been accurate if not for Wynter's intervention.
Jackson would've succumbed to his injuries that winter instead of returning to Kingbourne. But Wynter saved him, a man of selflessness who thought only of his country and its people. Not only did she restore his health, but she also changed his perspective.
Hence, Jackson returned to Kingbourne and took Lucas under his wing. After all, Lucas tended to offend others with his brash personality, especially now that he had interfered in educational affairs.
Ultimately, it was Jackson's support that allowed Lucas to stand firm in his pursuit of justice. Of course, Wynter played a crucial role in it.
No one expected 001 to return. Several enemies went rogue upon catching wind of her disappearance, having confirmed the rumors through their audacious deeds.

With all things considered, the higher-ups were unlikely to release them any tsoon, especially since the report cdirectly from 001 herself.
On the other hand, Jackson had learned of Wynter's identity long before Lucas did. Given his position, he had immediately accessed the internal files upon his return to Kingbourne.
Considering the matter's sensitive nature, he wasn't about to share her details with just anyone-not even Lucas.
"Mr. Munn Senior, is it true, as 001 claimed, that Colifernia is about to face a large-scale vixus outbreak?" someone beside Jackson asked. They were currently in a meeting solely reserved for the selected few.
In truth, the individual didn't inquire out of doubt. If the report proved true, they would need to initiate
quarantine measures without delay. Whether past or present, the plague threat to the ined, creat gue remained a deadly citizens. Glancing at the stamped letter, Jackson understood Wynter's intention.
