The Guardian's Return by Old Pumpkin

Stephen did not understand where Ethan got so much money from. After all, he had no powerful family backing him. The only person he could rely on was

himself!

"Thank you." Arnold sighed in relief, then expressed his wish for Stephen to punish him.

Stephen shook his head. "You're not at fault. Don't be too hard on yourself. Besides, it's not my place to decide that."

Arnold was silent for a while, then finally asked his last question. "Where's Ethan?"

Stephen's eyes instantly narrowed. "Why are you looking for him?"

"I want to pass on a message from the villagers outside the border."

"What message?" Stephen was wary.

Arnold recited, "The message is: can you come save us?"

Stephen's eyes widened at the words. The villagers wanted Ethan to save them? They knew that Ethan brought peace to Riveria, so they wished that he would bestow peace upon them too!
