The Guardian's Return by Old Pumpkin

The villagers' anxiety instantly disappeared as they crowded around Arnold, carefully observing him.

Arnold's determined gaze, righteous demeanor, and his distinct uniform left no doubt that he was one of Ethan's people. After all, three years ago, Ethan had also led a team wearing similar uniforms to this village.

Arnold had stumbled into the village by accident and wanted to leave quickly to avoid dragging the villagers into trouble. However, he was surrounded and could not escape. He looked at the villagers cautiously and said, "Everyone, please step aside. I'm a fugitive. If I don't leave, you might be in danger too."

The villagers did not understand him until they summoned someone who had lived in Riveria for a while.

The person understood Arnold's language and translated to everyone, "He's being pursued."

The villagers were shocked. Who would dare to pursue Ethan's man?

"Have you heard of Ethan Rivers?" someone asked.

Arnold nodded at the translated question. Although he was assigned to Riveria from somewhere else, he had heard about Ethan before.
