"Tomorrow morning," Greg replied without taking his eyes off the two candidates who stood out the most among the others.

Indeed, the shock immediately hit Riley and James.

"Tomorrow morning, Commander? How can we improve our skills in one night?" James asked as he now had a look of shock on his face although Greg could tell there was no fear in the young man's eyes.

Greg simply replied, "Nothing is impossible. After all, this is a war that was never predicted before. We don't have enough time to prepare."

Greg Sehel's words were enough to send chills down the spines of almost all the very young prospective soldiers. However, none of them chose to resign and go home.

One of them said, "I've come this far. How can I go home?"

"My parents will kill me if I go home for fear of going to the battlefield," another said.

Alen, who was actually still overcome by fear, also muttered, "I came to this palace to defend this country. Perhaps this is the time to prove that my purpose has never change

    "He's great, really great. He got two girls now," James praised while nodding and also laughing loudly.Alen responded, "You lost to him on this one. Oh, but ... you always lose to Riley.""Alen Smith, why do you have such a sharp tongue?" James replied who immediately put on a pouty face.Alen just chuckled in satisfaction at having mocked the young man. However, his laughter immediately stopped when he realized something. "James, wait a minute!""Why?" James asked curtly."Riley is already the king's future son-in-law and almost all the residents of this palace already know about it. So ... what if someone gossips about him and Mary Kesley?" Alen said.Hearing that, James, instead of being confused, burst out laughing. His laughter did not stop, even when Alen was glaring at him. "You like it when your friends get into trouble!" Alen said with a wry smile.James nodded vigorously, "This is one of the most fun pastimes. Believe me, his love troubles are a real entertaining."He conti

    Mary Kesley could easily guess where Riley Mackenzie was headed. She shook her head, "You can't go in there, Riley."Riley's eyes were perfectly wide. In a disappointed tone he asked, "Why can't I?"Mary sighed and explained, "A royal identity card is required to go in."Riley could only complain, "Why is it so difficult?""The rules are like that. But, don't worry. Once you have the card, you can enter the royal library whenever you want," Mary explained.Riley smiled wryly, "I can't wait. I really need that information today, Mary.""Well, then you'll have to bury your curiosity," Mary retorted.Riley gave an exasperated snort. "It's not about curiosity, it's about knowledge that might help in the war."Oh, instantly Mary found it difficult to deal with the son of her mother's best friend.The girl clucked her tongue and said, "Riley, you're just an aspiring soldier. You don't need to do that. General Reece is already thinking about it.""I know, but I still want to help. Maybe this

    After Mary said an idea that made Riley pensive, the girl left the area as quickly as she could. She didn't want any gossip to get her into trouble.Riley immediately ruffled his hair in frustration."Why does it have to be like this?" he muttered in exasperation.He was not someone who would take advantage of others for his own benefit. However, he made himself feel better by saying, "Oh, it's not for my benefit. I'm doing this to help find another way to protect the kingdom."With that in mind, he set out to meet Rowena Wellington after he finished his intensive training. "Where have you been?" James asked once he saw Riley returning."She's not heartbroken, is she?" Alen had a concerned expression.James snorted, "He and Mary Kesley don't have a clear status yet. Mary shouldn't have to feel bad.""Hey, that woman is the most complicated human, so who's to say whether she feels bad or not?" Alen retorted.Riley shook his head and looked at the two roommates in turn, "What are you gu

    Riley even smiled when he heard it."Oh, that's right. Having skills in two areas isn't bad," a soldier said as he had called himself an aerial expert.Alen nodded enthusiastically, "Oh, I'm right."Riley shook his head and shifted back a little to say, "You ... since when did you become a motivator?"Alen grinned and replied with a very quiet tone, "It's nothing like that. I just don't want our troops to decrease.""It's dangerous if the number of prospective soldiers is reduced," Alen added.Riley chuckled softly, his brain that had been a little full of his plans to get close to Rowena now relaxing a little.He then looked at the monitor again and heard some of the prospective soldiers retreating. Instantly Riley saw Greg's expression and at that moment he was sure there was a hint of disappointment on the stiff man's face.However, Greg didn't say anything about their withdrawal. Once the time was up, he simply said, "Well, 300 prospective soldiers chose to fight with me. So, from

    Alen immediately looked around, trying to locate Riley. However, he still couldn't find his friend. "Did he leave? I don't see him."James let out a long sigh, "Damn! Didn't I just ask you that? He left without telling us."Alen quickly responded, "Oh, never mind. He probably had other things he wanted to do."James twisted his chin, "Does this have something to do with those two girls?""Who are those two girls?" Alen asked after removing his gloves."Princess Rowena and Mary Kesley. Who else are the two girls he's close to besides them?" James replied in an exasperated tone.Alen grimaced, "Oh, I thought there was another girl."James frowned, but Alen quickly said, "Let it go! Maybe he feels like he needs to get his love affairs sorted out before we go to war.""Oh, right. Maybe so," James said as he now sounded indifferent.He chose to wait for Riley in the park close to their dormitory with Alen. Meanwhile, Riley had just arrived at the princess' palace. The princess servants we

    The princess immediately turned around and looked straight at the mirror. She then said, "He's my future husband. What will the people say if I refuse his arrival?"Celia immediately bowed and understood what she had to do, "Then I will ask the guards to escort him in, Your Highness.""Hm," Rowena replied briefly.Celia turned around and left, while Rowena again ordered the servants to re-dress her. About five minutes later, the girl went to meet Riley in her living room. The young man who was not sitting and still standing saluted her and it made her frown.She looked at Riley's handsome face and strangely enough, she immediately realized that he had something to say to her. "Servant, guard. Leave us alone!" Rowena ordered.Celia gasped when she heard that, so she quickly replied, "But, Your Highness. You can't just be alone with ... Mr. Wood."Rowena sighed, "This is our private conversation. I think you might also be embarrassed when you hear it."Hearing the princess's words, the

    Riley certainly could not reply and that made Rowena chuckle."Calm down, I know that this status is only temporary, but ... hm, never mind. You'd better get back to your training," Rowena said and the girl pushed the stunned youth away.Actually, Riley still wanted to talk. But since Rowena had told him to leave, of course he had to leave.Riley rushed to the resting place for the prospective soldiers. In just a short time he had managed to find his two room mates who were lying on the grass with their eyes closed as if they were exhausted after the intense training they had done.As soon as Riley sat down next to James, the young man immediately opened his eyes and got up. His eyes looked questioningly at Riley, "So, how was it?""How what?" Alen asked with his eyes still closed, not knowing that Riley was already there.James clucked his tongue, "I'm not asking you."The short-haired boy opened his eyes instantly, tilted his head and smiled widely when he saw Riley sitting facing Ja

    With great enthusiasm Rowena added, "You can ask him for advice. I'm sure he'll be able to help us."The girl's face even looked radiant, but Riley shook her head."Why? You don't want to?" Rowena asked with a confused expression.Riley sighed, "My father ... he's been in that field, risked his life and has done a lot for this kingdom. And right now he's living his life like an ordinary person."He then turned to the princess and continued, "I don't want to see him thinking hard about the war anymore. I want my father to just relax into his current life with my mother without thinking about things like this anymore, Your Highness."Rowena was silent.The girl was instantly reminded of her meeting with William Mackenzie some time ago. If Riley wanted his father not to worry about the kingdom, his father, the most powerful general ever, did the same.The god of war also did not want his son to know of his arrival. He also wanted his son to not worry about anything and focus on his goal.

    Gary Davis replied with a serious expression, "Your Honor, I apologize if you find my words presumptuous, but ....""Just say it! Say everything you want to say!" Xylan commanded.From the tone of his voice, Xylan clearly sounded impatient. "I'm ready to listen! And ... I won't get mad at you, don't worry!" Xylan added after he saw the hesitant look on Gary's face.Xylan thought maybe Gary was afraid that he would be punished if he said what was in his head so the future king's salon had to reassure Gary for the young man to be braver.Gary nodded, looking relieved. At least he had an assurance that he would not be punished. "Your Highness, you ... will be made the new king of Ans De Lou Kingdom. You are still very young and you yourself must have guessed that ... that ... I am ...."Xylan clucked his tongue impatiently, "Just say it! I have no problem. Just take it easy!"Gary nodded again and continued, "There are some who don't like you. Although ... for now things aren't looking

    Hearing Gary Davis' answer, Xylan Wellington frowned.Is this really the same young man who always gives me good solutions? Xylan wondered.The future king looked deeper and deeper at Gary and finally raised his right eyebrow when he realized he had thought something stupid.More and more Xylan realized that Gary Davis might indeed be smart and dexterous and quite knowledgeable. But, such an intelligent person could also have an innocent nature like the young man had just shown himself."Your Highness, why don't you answer my question? Am I-""Forget it!" Xylan cut in quickly.Gary scratched behind his ear in confusion.Xylan sighed and said, "Gary, are you anxiously awaiting the announcement of the changes in staff and palace officials later?"Gary frowned, quite surprised by Xylan's question.The young man opened his mouth and stammered, "Your Royal Highness, I ... I'm just ...."Just by looking at Gary's expression, Xylan instantly knew that his guess was correct. The young man di

    "Of course it is. Otherwise, how could his café business be successful?" Diego said, who seemed to be satisfied with the results achieved by James, his best friend.Reiner became more interested, "How? I mean ... you know he's ... well, he can't be polite and he tends to annoy people. So, what did he change?"Diego looked like he was about to answer, but Shin suddenly said in an incredulous tone, "Oh, wait a minute. He manages the cafe business together with his mother, right? Uh, I'm sure the customers come to his place because of his nice mom."Ben nodded in agreement, "I've never met James' mother, but ... considering James is like that, I'll take Shin's word for it."Diego immediately put on a sour expression, looking rather annoyed. This was because his own friends apparently didn't know James very well.However, he was the one who was witness to how James had changed so much that he felt the need to set the record straight."Hey, I'm telling you seriously. James, who is the owne

    Alen did not immediately answer the question of his senior and good friend. He seemed to think for a moment before finally giving an answer, "It's like you don't know James.""What do you mean?" Shin replied while blinking.Alen snorted impatiently, "Shin, James is unpredictable. You must also know that sometimes he can do things that no one would ever think of. So, how can I guess what he might do?"Shin was stunned. The young man smiled wryly, "Damn, you're right about that. He is indeed unpredictable."In the end, the two people did not ask James any questions about what they discussed. When the funeral was over, they all returned to their respective places. However, not James Gardner. The young man who was the war general of Ans De Lou Kingdom at that time was seen walking towards Xylan Wellington's residence.Of course, this led to various speculations among most of the palace residents. It was not only the officials and staff of the palace who began to notice the irregularitie

    "It will, Diego," James replied."He can wait," James repeated with emphasis.Diego didn't seem convinced by James' answer.James was usually reluctant to go into too much detail about what he was thinking. However, Diego was one of his best friends so he didn't want to confuse his best friend.So, James said, "He's not an easy guy to beat, Diego. And ... there's one thing you need to know.""What's that?" Diego asked with one eyebrow raised."His own father, I mean General Mackenzie told me that his son ... will not die easily," James explained.Diego was so dumbfounded that he didn't dare reply.James was sure his job of explaining was done, but he still added, "If the greatest and most powerful general the Ans De Lou Kingdom has ever seen said that, then there's a very good chance that Riley is still alive out there."Diego was silent for a few moments.But then he said, "If General Mackenzie believes that, we have no right to doubt him.""You're right, Diego. Therefore, we just ha

    William's lips lifted upwards once again, forming a warm smile."James, without me explaining it, you ... must know it yourself, right?" William said softly.After that, the old man who was once the strongest soldier in the kingdom patted James on the back and then left James pensive.The young man swallowed hard. Suddenly he remembered all the things about Riley, more precisely their friendship that they had established since the beginning.All those memories came back. One of the memories that bothered him was when they were still not officially inducted into the army. At that time he was upset and made the stupid and desperate decision to attack the enemy as proof that he was different from his father. Then, the only person who really cared about him was Riley. He was the one who sacrificed himself to save him. At that time, he and Riley were both aspiring soldiers. Neither of them had the slightest experience on the battlefield. But, Riley was still looking for him.Uh, when he

    James Gardner nodded, "Yes, Your Royal Highness. May I do so?"Xylan Wellington quickly nodded, "Go, General Gardner. You can talk to him."James was grateful that Xylan did not hold him back."Thank you, Your Highness," James said as he quickly left the crown prince along with three first-class soldiers to guard him.Indeed, the three soldiers were certainly no match for him. However, he chose to trust the three of them.Luckily, it turned out that William Mackenzie who looked much older by a few years was also looking for him so their meeting did not encounter any obstacles."General Mackenzie," James greeted the father of his best friend respectfully.William Mackenzie smiled faintly and replied, "General Gardner."James nodded, "You … are you alright, General?"William returned a smile and said in a low tone, "How can I be fine when I have some problems, General Gardner?"James frowned, looking rather confused.Not wanting to riddle and confuse James, William quickly explained wit

    James suddenly gave Gardner a lopsided smile. He knew it was not easy being Xylan Wellington's shield. But, he really did not expect that the crown prince who he thought was so smart was also so innocent.His intelligence seemed to be inversely proportional to his knowledge in terms of understanding the world around him.However, he had already decided to replace Riley in order to make up for the few years of time he had wasted so he should try to be patient.Thus, he calmly replied, "You should start thinking about the matter of all of their opinions, Your Highness.""Why should I?" Xylan retorted, who did not seem to accept James' words.James bit his lower lip, feeling the need to suppress his irritation even more. Come on, James. Don't give up so easily! James thought to himself."Because you are the future king and will soon inherit the throne of this country. So, you should start thinking about what they think of you," James replied.Xylan was about to reply, but James was fas

    The indecision on Xylan Wellington's face was evident. James Gardner, who felt that he had succeeded in making the crown prince realize the big mistake Xylan was about to make, called out, "Your Highness."Xylan flinched slightly when he heard his name being called by James.The young man turned to James, but still did not open his mouth.At that moment, James Gardner was certain that Xylan would change the decision they had just discussed.However, he suddenly saw Xylan smiling at him. That of course made James blink his eyes in confusion.But, within seconds, his confusion was answered. He heard Xylan say, "General Gardner, what you said is true. Everything is right. I ... might get some opposition for choosing Gary Davis as the king's advisor."He nodded. James immediately got a bad feeling that he didn't want to imagine."But, General Gardner. I have found no other good candidate than Gary Davis for that position. And ...."He paused for a moment, seemingly thinking about somethi
