The male staffer was silent for a moment, but then he snapped his fingers as if he'd just realized something.

“His son is here,” the male staffer said.

The female staff clucked her tongue, “Oh, my God. I can't believe it. That's just a rumor. Everyone knows that it's just a rumor that James Gardner started."

The male staffer shook his head in disagreement, but his friend chimed in again, “If it were true, it would have been exposed already. There are only about 300 prospective soldiers right now, there's no way the palace can't find someone who is considered General Mackenzie's son, right?"

"Then, can you find a reasonable reason, Julia? Why would a war general who decided to retire and withdraw from the palace and then even disappeared from the palace or can be said to have hidden his life, now appear in the palace?” the male staff named Bernard asked.

Julia, the female staff sighed in annoyance, “How would I know? Perhaps General Mackenzie has some important business at the palace.

    William Mackenzie turned to the king and nodded, “Yes, Your Majesty. I see he has a strong friendship with James Gardner.""Oh, not even that. My son even shares a dormitory, a room with him,” William added.Keannu was pensive for a few seconds and then raised his head, looking back at the general, “Your son ... he's ....”Before Keannu could finish his sentence, he saw three of his family members enter his garden area unannounced.The man immediately said, “You three. What are you doing here?"Monica along with her son and daughter just tried to smile awkwardly. William Mackenzie immediately greeted the queen of the country, “Good evening, Your Majesty.”He also greeted the princess with a warm smile, “Princess Rowena, we finally meet again.”Rowena smiled back awkwardly, but she responded by saying, “Welcome to the palace again, General Mackenzie.”William turned to a teenage boy who still looked very young and said, “Good evening, Crown Prince.”Xylan stammered, “Welcome, General.

    The young girl's face suddenly changed. What had been a bright blush now looked pale. William Mackenzie easily understood what was going on with the king's daughter who was rumored to have had an affair with his son.So, remembering the relationship between the two young people, William said, "Your Majesty, you are frightening the princess. How about I explain the matter?""I happen to know quite a lot about it," William added. Keannu turned his gaze to William, "What do you mean you know about it, Bill?""You know about this, General? How is that possible?" Monica asked with a surprised look on her face.William Mackenzie told him everything he knew including the princess' confession about hiding her son's identity. Several times Monica was seen sighing in surprise, while Keannu gritted his teeth to overcome his annoyance at being lied to by his own daughter for so long.The king turned back to his beautiful daughter and said, "Rowena, you also know ... how I was always arguing wit

    William Mackenzie's expression clearly showed great disappointment. However, Keannu didn't run away from the problem and still answered honestly, "Because I think and people think your son might be able to replace you."William was dumbfounded.Seeing that expression, Keannu quickly added, "Don't think anything bad just yet!"The uncomfortable Keannu asked William to sit down before he continued, "I mean this, Bill. Andrew will be retiring soon. Actually ... his health is already failing and I ... haven't found a single suitable replacement.""Then ... there was a rumor that your son was in this warrior selection so ... we instantly had high hopes. If you can be that good, your son is of course likely to have the same extraordinary abilities as you," Keannu explained.William looked frustrated. In fact, he was seen drinking water before Keannu gave him permission to drink.Keannu sighed, knowing full well that all the ways they had tried to find the general's son could not be consider

    The staff answered with a hesitant look. William immediately noticed something strange there so he chose to ask directly, "What's wrong? Did something bad happen to the prospective soldiers?"The staff suddenly felt proud that the strongest war general ever in the Ans De Lou Kingdom was speaking to him. Who didn't idolize that legendary figure who was currently sitting beside his king?He was one of the people who was an ardent fan of William Mackenzie.Not wanting to keep the general waiting, he quickly replied, "General, there is indeed something going on over there. However, it's a bit complicated.""Complicated? What exactly is going on?" Keannu asked in a worried tone."There was an argument that ensued that led James Gardner to leave the group. And then ... then ...."The staffer stopped talking again, he glanced fearfully at Keannu Wellington. After all, what he was about to say was bound to make the king anxious."Hurry up, why did you stop talking?" Keannu said impatiently.

    "No," Keannu replied, which William did not expect at all.Keannu even repeated himself by emphasizing that one word, "NO."William blinked his eyes, wearing a clueless expression, "Your Majesty, but ... why?"Keannu sighed softly, "It was a big war, Bill. You ... have given so much to this palace and countless times you have risked your life. I don't want you to have to get involved again."Oh, how William was touched by the king's gentleness. But the general still said again, "But I cannot stand by and watch one soldier's life after another being taken, Your Majesty."Keannu was silent. A great dilemma hit his chest again.He knew that if William Mackenzie came back to the battlefield and took the lead, he would have nothing to worry about. Without the slightest doubt, he was sure that victory would definitely be achieved by their side. William had never lost a single war and that was why until that moment no one could break the record of the man who was now more than half a centur

    "Yes, General Reece," Cliff replied who knew his general was in a good mood.Andrew Reece himself didn't know what made William Mackenzie want to talk to him.But whatever it was, it didn't mask his happiness that the long-absent general was finally showing himself. In fact, the great general entered the palace through official means. He couldn't wait to greet the person who had contributed so much to his career. In just a few seconds, Cliff's call was answered. Cliff immediately handed Andrew a tablet to use for communication. Andrew was so nervous but couldn't hide his excitement. When he looked at the screen, he actually saw the general's face that he had memorized. William looked aged but Andrew could still see the unchanging lines of his face."General Reece," William greeted with a faint smile.Andrew Reece instantly felt awkward. Being called "General" by someone who had taught him felt strange to his ears."General, I ... oh, please just call me by my name," Andrew said qu

    William finally replied, "You ... said that my son is very extraordinary, didn't you?""Y-yes, General," Andrew stammered.William gave a small nod, "Then he will definitely be able to overcome whatever comes his way.""But, General ... this is a big battlefield and he's still an aspiring soldier. What if he encounters a formidable opponent?" Andrew replied which he actually found hard to say.William sighed softly. "Reece, he's my son. MY SON. I know what he's capable of. He must have a thousand ways to survive. He will not die easily ...."That word 'die' was spoken so softly, but Andrew knew that the strongest war general was worried. However, he knew what his position was. As a war advisor, he could not afford to put his own personal interests first. Which in this case was putting his son's safety first.He could of course ask for his son to be rescued first and he was sure that Andrew Reece would definitely carry out the rescue without hesitation.However, he didn't want to do t

    Before the two soldiers could answer, Greg Sehel had already approached them and grabbed one of them by the shoulder while saying with an extremely worried look in his eyes, "Tell me, where are they? Why didn't they come back with you two?"Ryan, Ben's good friend and the leader of the group replied fearfully, "We found them, Commander. They're in the back."Ryan pointed towards the back. Meanwhile, Morphy, the senior second class soldier who was with him added timidly, "They're probably walking a bit slower, Commander."Relief instantly washed over Greg. He slowly released his grip on Ryan's shoulder. Greg quickly walked towards the back, waiting impatiently for the soldiers to arrive.Meanwhile Ryan exchanged puzzled glances with Morphy at the commander's reaction which they found very surprising.Could it be because the missing soldier was the king's future son-in-law? That's why Commander Sehel looked so panicked? Ryan thought.Morphy, who saw Greg standing quite far away from th

    Hearing the new war general's question, Xylan Wellington laughed awkwardly.It was a laugh that didn't really come off, in fact, it sounded so strange that it made anyone who heard the viceroy's laughter confused.Reiner also looked at Xylan with a strange gaze while James did not even blink. The look in his eyes showed a demand.A demand for an explanation from Xylan regarding what he had just said.When he saw that urgent questioning look, Xylan finally stopped laughing. He cleared his throat softly before saying, "Hm ... I know from the main soldier.""The main soldier?" James repeated as he frowned.Xylan gulped and smiled clumsily, "The king's court soldiers, General Gardner."Oh, that wasn't really what James meant. He knew without even asking that the main soldiers were the palace soldiers specifically assigned to escort and guard him.There were usually five of them and one of them was required to stay by his side

    James Gardner remained silent, giving no clear answer to Reiner's question.An immediate anxiety struck the ground war commander. Not wanting to be ignored by James, Reiner asked again, "James, tell me. Are you going to stay in the palace? You're not going to leave, right?"He looked anxiously at James who was staring out the car window. However, after he waited patiently enough he finally heard James answer, "I don't know."Reiner's heart was like being hit by a rock instantly."So ... are you leaving?" the man asked in a tone that sounded disappointed."It depends."Reiner, who was still staring at James, raised an eyebrow, looking confused, "Depends on what?"James sighed softly, "It depends on King Xylan's answer."Reiner was getting more and more confused. However, he did not have time to ask further as the car they were in had already entered the main gate of the Ans De Lou Royal palace. Even so, Reiner still did not want to give up so easily so he continued to stick to James e

    At first Michelle Veren didn't understand what James Gardner was asking. However, when she saw the look on the general's face, she immediately knew he meant the time of the departure of the three people they were looking for.So, the Veren boutique owner replied, "About an hour ago, General Gardner."Hearing that answer, Reiner immediately went limp. But, it was inversely proportional to James who was even full of enthusiasm. This could be seen from James who even said, "Come on, Rei. Let's go after him."Reiner looked sadly at his best friend and replied, "It won't catch up, James. It's been too long."James did not even listen to Reiner's words and ordered some of his men, "Prepare the car, let's go after them!""James," Reiner called softly.James ignored the call and kept saying to his men who were still quietly waiting, "Find out through the CCTV which area they are currently in. They ... should be visible if they take the highway from behind this building."Reiner bit his own

    Unfortunately it was all too late for the young girl to realize. All the words of the girl named Alice Porter were clearly heard by Reiner Anderson and James Gardner.With a dark look on his face, James said, "Miss, you-""No, no. I just misspoke, I ... I don't know anything. You heard me wrong," Alice said, whose face paled even more. Especially when she saw the aura of James Gardner, the terrifying war general, she found it even harder to breathe.Reiner also could not help himself so he said in an exasperated tone, "Tell me everything you know or you ... will know how terrible it is when you face the two of us.""I don't care if you are a woman. I can still find a punishment that you deserve," Reiner continued coldly.Alice swallowed harshly. Of course the young girl was very confused. Moreover, no one was trying to help her at all. All the employees in the boutique looked so frightened that no one dared to open their mouths."Say it now! We don't have much time, Miss!" James gro

  • The Strongest God of War   86. Veren Boutique

    James' question immediately made Reiner silent for a few moments. He stared at the boutique with a confused look on his face.Meanwhile, James didn't want to waste any more time so he wordlessly walked towards the boutique owned by Michelle Veren, a forty-year-old female designer who was quite famous in the country.Reiner didn't just stand by and do nothing, lamenting his inaccuracy. He followed James with a small trot right behind James without a word.As soon as James was faster than him to reach the door, he immediately saw the two boutique guards who opened the door for them."Can I help you?" one of the boutique guards asked James."I'm looking for Princess Rowena. Where is she now?" James asked back matter-of-factly as he darted his eyes all over the first floor of the boutique.Although there was a suspicion rising in James' mind, the young man put his anxiety ahead of his suspicion."You're looking for Princess Rowena? Who are you? You-""James Gardner. Royal War General Ans

    Reiner Anderson did not answer James' question. Instead, he had a facial expression that looked both hesitant and confused.Of course, that made James Gardner even more annoyed. "Come on, tell me quickly! What's so strange about Princess Rowena?" James urged, impatiently.Reiner swallowed and scratched his ears before answering, "Well, I'm not sure if this is strange to you. But ... I think it's very strange, James."James gritted his teeth in growing annoyance and impatience.Luckily, he didn't need to ask anymore as Reiner added, "So, according to reports she went outside the palace."Hearing Reiner's answer, James snorted rudely. "What's so strange about that? I know she often goes outside the palace."Reiner sighed softly, "Indeed. But, this time ... a few hours ago, she left without a bodyguard. And she ... left with their son, Prince Kharel."Instantly James glared in shock, "What? Are you ... sure?""Yes, James. She just-""How is that possible? King Xylan ... didn't forbid he

    Gary Davis did not answer Xylan's question. He just wore a pitiable expression. It instantly brought out the guilt in Xylan Wellington.Oh, no. What have I done? Did ... did I go too far in becoming suspicious of my own personal assistant? Xylan thought to himself as he stared at Gary's innocent face.The viceroy sighed softly. He went back to thinking hard. He tried to remember everything about Gary. He had never made a mistake, not once. He also never did anything suspicious all this time. Gosh, am I suspecting the wrong person? Xylan thought.However, he shook his head quickly as he realized something.But, wait a minute. It was James Gardner who suspected him. He couldn't have spoken carelessly. Otherwise, there was no way he could have been selected as the deputy war general. His instincts must be very strong that he has suspicions of Gary Davis, Xylan thought seriously.He then looked at Gary once more and finally nodded his head.He does look very innocent, but he could be h

    Ben didn't know how he should respond to his friend's words, but all he could do was go over to James and pat him gently on the back repeatedly in an attempt to calm him down."He's really not coming back, Ben.""No, he's not. It's just-""He wouldn't give that kind of message if he didn't mean what he said," James cut Ben off.Ben sighed softly, "James, what I meant was ... he probably doesn't want to be looked for anymore because he wants to go back to the palace himself."Ben's words made James, who had been so frantic, straighten his back. The war general then turned to Ben and responded, "What do you mean?"Ben wasn't sure what he was thinking but he said it anyway, "I think ... he just wants to go home alone."James paused, trying to digest his friend's words."Tell you what ... how about we just go back to the palace, who knows if Riley might actually be home," Ben explained.Ricky and Steven Drilon were silent as they listened to Ben's words.They also didn't have time to reac

    Ricky Drilon could only stare at the question.Oh, he often found himself in a confusing situation. But, he had never once felt depressed.Though he was also very often faced with a difficult choice. However, again, such things could be resolved well without any inner turmoil.However, one question asked by Riley Mackenzie put him in his most difficult phase. "Why are you doing nothing? Who are you going to obey? Me or General Gardner?" Riley repeated his question.Ricky swallowed harshly, getting more and more confused.His forehead was furrowed, clearly showing a great deal of indecision. He repeatedly smoothed his hair in just one minute. That made Riley smile strangely, "So, what? Who are you going to choose to obey?" Ricky bit his own teeth.How is this? What am I supposed to do? And why am I in this situation? Ricky thought.He looked indecisive, full of doubts. Riley himself looked very calm and relaxed at Ricky's confusion."Why aren't you answering me?" Riley asked with a
