"Riley, did you hear what I said?" William asked.

Riley immediately realized, "Nothing, Dad. Not at the moment. Besides, it's only the first day. I don't know that many people."

The young man felt uncomfortable about hiding such a big thing from his father, but he didn't want to make his father think about things and worry too much so that he had to make such a tough decision.

"That's good then. But ... listen to my message, you shouldn't trust the people around you too much," William said.

Riley nodded even though he knew his father couldn't see his facial movements.

"And look for Andrew Reece when you have problems. He will definitely help you," William added.

Riley sighed softly, "Don't worry, Dad. Until now, I can still take care of myself."

"Okay, get some rest. You have to start training tomorrow, right?" William asked.

"Yeah, Dad," Riley answered with a yawn.

"Oh, my Riley. You're already sleepy. Then hang up the phone," Cassandra said.

And the call ended after Cassand

    "Your ambition is too big to find the general's son," Alen Smith said. James grinned, "You would have done what I would have done if born without a father." Alen suddenly fell silent, while Riley gripped his glass of water. "Hey, it's appeared," Diego said, intending to cool the atmosphere. All the eyes of the prospective soldiers were immediately glued to the very large screen. "I don't care about my ranking, the important thing is to get the minimum score." "Is there really a minimum standard for assessment?" someone else said. "You idiot! Didn't you read all the rules before registering?" They started having fun throwing around words until finally they started to fall silent when their names started appearing. Riley saw that James was looking seriously at the screen, while he only glanced at their names. "Wow! You rank first in swordsmanship, Riley," Diego said. Alen clapped his hands, happy, "Amazing! Why didn't you tell us that your sword skills are good." Riley smiled

    "I would love to say 'yes', but you know that 'Wood' is not a rare surname, it is too common a surname, Reece," Keannu said. Andrew's face, which originally looked bright, suddenly turned a bit gloomy again. Keannu immediately felt guilty. "I don't mean to destroy your hopes, Reece. I just don't want you to be too disappointed," Keannu said slowly. Andrew nodded, "You are right, Your Majesty. It would be too quick to guess that the child is General Mackenzie's son just by looking at some training results." "Yes. Just pay attention to him the same way you pay attention to that young Gardner. Oh, but ... I have a bad feeling about that kid," Keannu said. The king looked worried so Andrew said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty. I will monitor the child more closely. I won't let him mess up." "That's better," Keannu replied. After that, Andrew ordered several of his subordinates to always be on guard around James Gardner and Riley. Riley didn't realize it at all, but James was starting to

    Without blinking his eyes, Riley replied, "Why should I play guessing games with you? Don't you claim to be the best?" "So, you can find General Mackenzie's son easily, right?" Riley added. James frowned irritably, "It wouldn't be fun if I looked for it myself." "Oh, you mean in other words you want to say that you need my help to find him?" Riley asked, raising his thick right eyebrow. Alen chuckled softly, while Diego openly said, "My roommate, you are determined to find and defeat him. So do it yourself." "Why invite Riley?" Alen said. James, who was initially annoyed, then smiled, "Even though I intended to give a lot of money for this game." Alen and Diego glanced at each other, looking shocked. But, Riley quickly said, "Who cares about money here?" James took a deep breath, "Wood, not everyone comes to this kingdom to purely serve, but most of them expect a high salary." Riley was silent, James continued, "You also know how much salary the king offers. You also know that

    Mary Kesley who was standing in front of the building greeted them with a friendly smile, "Welcome to the ice building, gentlemen." Riley nodded and smiled back, as did Jason Hoult. But James Gardner said, "Why are we asked to come to this building? Why not in the silver, gold or titanium building?" Mary replied, "I don't know. I was just carrying out General Reece's orders." James didn't like that answer so he said again, "You do everything you're told without knowing why, Miss?" Mary intended to answer James' annoying question, but Riley said first, "This lady's job is only to convey orders from the general, not to investigate General Reece's reasons. After all, General Reece doesn't need to explain the actions he takes, except for King Keannu who asks for it." Jason, who didn't like James, immediately nodded in agreement, "Never mind, you've wasted General Reece's valuable time, Gardner." James snorted in annoyance, while Riley said, "We're ready to go inside, Miss Kesley." M

    After Andrew Reece and Jason Hoult entered the special room that Andrew had mentioned earlier, James Gardner took a deep breath. Riley said impatiently, "You don't think that Jason Hoult is General Mackenzie's son, do you?" James, who was stretching his muscles, replied, "Why not? You can see for yourself, right?" "See what? What do you mean?" Riley didn't understand. James sighed, "Wood, you ranked first, but it turns out your thinking is really slow. How did you get that position?" Oh, it wasn't that James didn't recognize Riley's greatness, but he was just annoyed because his roommate didn't immediately understand the situation that was happening. "I don't want to play guessing games with you, James," Riley replied and the young man looked away in annoyance. James spoke again, "Hey, Wood. If you weren't my roommate, I would have ignored you." "I'd rather be ignored by you, thank you very much," Riley replied. James smiled instead, "Oh, I'm very happy to have a suitable inte

    After the door was closed again by Andrew Reece, Jason Hoult immediately asked, "What did he say? Why do you look so upset?" Riley Mackenzie smiled half-forcedly, "It's nothing important." Jason didn't fully believe it so he asked again, "He didn't insult you or say annoying things to upset you, right?" "No, he did not. Hm, even if he says annoying things, I'm used to it," Riley said. Jason stared in surprise, "How do you get used to it?" "We share a dormitory and happen to share a room. So ... hm, you know what I mean, right?" Riley said. Jason looked surprised, "Oh, your luck is really bad. Sharing a dorm with that annoying person? He must be testing your patience." Jason shook his head and added, "If I were you, I'm not sure I could survive being in the same room with him for one night." Riley just chuckled. "Hm, okay, I have to go back to the dormitory. General Reece asked me to go back to the dormitory straight away," Jason said. Riley nodded and let Jason go. He was now

    Andrew held his breath a little, waiting for Riley's answer, who he estimated was William Mackenzie's son after he saw the young man succeed in taking first place with a perfect score. However, he then saw Riley raise his face and smile at him, "Of course, General Reece. How could I not know about the strongest war general that has ever existed in the Ans De Lou Kingdom?" "I really idolize him, General. I even read all the books that discuss him." Riley took a moment to pause and continued, "And the reason I enlisted as a soldier here was also because of him. I also trained hard because I wanted to be one of the people who wore the same armor as General Mackenzie." Andrew was stunned and not long after he smiled at Riley. "You really seem to really idolize General Mackenzie," Andrew said. Riley nodded vigorously, "He is the number one person to follow in his footsteps, General." Of course it was. William Mackenzie was his father. He not only wanted to follow in his father's foot

    "What? How is that possible?" Riley said in disbelief. Mary Kesley once again looked around her and after making sure that no one had actually seen them, the young girl immediately took Riley's hand and led him to an unguarded place. Riley, who was still very confused, couldn't help but immediately asked Mary, "So, how did you do it?" Mary sighed, "We can't be here for long, so I'll just get to the point." Riley also listened carefully. "My mother and your father used to be good friends. My mother was Amanda Clark, who used to be a palace secretary," Mary said. Mary then asked, "Have you ever heard my mother's name? Did your father ever mention my mother's name?" Riley nodded quickly, "When my father returned to the palace, the only people who knew him were Andrew Reece and Amanda Clark. She was also the one who gave my father the name 'Bill Stewart'." Mary smiled, "It's great that you have such a good memory, Young Master Mackenzie." Riley cleared his throat being called that

    Tired of hearing Nick Collins' questions, the chatty guy, Gary Davis finally replied, "Nothing. I just want to sleep. Do you mind if I close my eyes now, buddy?"Nick Collins winked, looking visibly disappointed.But, Gary didn't care and added, "I'm so tired. Today is King Xylan's coronation. I have so many things to do."Gary sighed tiredly and made a pitiable facial expression that Nick felt sorry for.He immediately responded, "Oh, I'm so sorry. It's because of me that you can't rest. Well, please take your time, Gary."Gary Davis smiled gratefully and closed his eyes."Have a good rest, buddy!" Nick said when he saw that Gary's eyes were closed.Not forgetting to add, "We can chat later. Okay?"No, there's no need, Gary thought while still closing his eyes.He certainly didn't bother replying to Nick and kept pretending to sleep. He actually couldn't sleep. Even on long journeys, Nick could never sleep sitting up. Basically, he had such a habit of having trouble sleeping that he

    The 23-year-old loosened the collar of his shirt and then sat down comfortably. His face was bright with a smile. In fact, one of the other passengers sitting in the same compartment with him felt that the young man carrying a backpack with the emblem of the Ans De Lou Kingdom was a very cheerful young man."Excuse me, where are you getting off?" Gary asked to make small talk with his compartment mate.The man who looked about the same age as him replied, "Vues Hill."Gary nodded, "Oh, you mean getting off before me.""Where do you get off?" the man asked back. "Uh, I'll get off at the last station, Wenderstein," Gary replied.The man frowned, "Wenderstein? You're from an area ... that once belonged to the Sealand Kingdom apparently."Gary smiled kindly and nodded, "You seem to know my area."The man immediately nodded, "Of course. I've been there a few times."Gary was reluctant to respond, but the young man sitting in front of him still seemed interested in the topic and asked aga

    "Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I ... will stop talking and listen to you," Gary Davis said, who after saying that immediately closed his mouth tightly. The young man also bowed his head as if afraid that he would anger the viceroy.Xylan sighed softly at the compliance of his personal assistant and then responded, "Gary, I ... have broken my promise. I can't make you occupy an important position in this palace."He observed Gary's facial expression which was unfortunately invisible to him as his head was bowed rather deeply.But, looking at Gary who didn't move an inch Xylan was sure Gary was listening to everything he said carefully."But ... that doesn't mean I can't do it forever," Xylan continued.Xylan's words managed to make Gary move his head slightly but still remained in a downcast position.Xylan smiled faintly and added, "Yes, Gary. You didn't hear wrong. I only delayed your appointment. This means that my decision has not changed."Slowly Gary raised his head until Xyl

    "General Gardner, you've always been able to read what's inside my brain," Xylan replied quietly.The corners of James' lips lifted slightly to form a faint smile."Say it, Your Majesty! I am at your disposal," James said casually.Xylan nodded his head, "It's about you.""About me?" James repeated with a surprised expression.The young man had not expected the king's answer to be about him. He thought Xylan meant his concern for the government. In a confused tone he asked, "Does anything I do bother you, Your Majesty?" Xylan shook his head emphatically, "No. You've helped me more than anything. You've actually helped me more than I expected."That certainly made James even more clueless, "So what do you think of me?""It's about our agreement before I was appointed," Xylan replied.James' broad forehead wrinkled, but he quickly realized what Xylan was referring to.As he had expected, Xylan was actually saying, "So, when are you going to start looking for my brother-in-law again?"

    A female staffer from another ministry immediately laughed at Celine Klein's words. That young woman was Lucy Berry.But Celine, the twenty-five-year-old young woman only looked at her with one eyebrow raised. She didn't seem bothered at all, just curious.Some people also ended up laughing along with the woman who also looked Celine's age.Not getting the response she wanted, Lucy said sarcastically, "Why would King Xylan choose a woman from the commoners? Are ... you interested in being his wife?"Celine was about to answer, but Lucy laughed at her again and said, "Don't get your hopes up! Even if King Xylan chooses a woman who is not a member of the royal family, he is still unlikely to look at an ordinary staff like you."The look in her eyes at Celine was clearly very dismissive, yet Celine still looked calm and relaxed.Instead, the young woman boldly said, "Oh my! I didn't say that. I was just wondering. Oh, I see. Perhaps you're the one who dreamed of becoming King Xylan's wif

    The words of Royal Prime Minister Ans De Lou, who had done a lot for the country, instantly made most of the ministers in the palace become dumbfounded.Many of them were afraid to breathe. In fact, there were also those who dared not just move their eyeballs. It was because they thought Philip Crawford was too bold that they thought that this time the young king who had just been inaugurated would surely lose his temper and become furious.Reiner Anderson, one of the country's war commanders, almost felt that it was the end of the debate between the two men of different generations."Prime Minister Crawford is definitely finished this time. King Xylan won't let him," Reiner said with a tone of voice that sounded full of horror.Josh Cleve winked and said, "You're right, Rei. That accusation is a bit outrageous in my opinion. If that's the case, the viceroy will definitely kick old Crawford out."Benedict Arkitson, who had just joined them, responded, "What's going on between them? W

    Philip Crawford replied, "Your Majesty, you have made a big mistake."Everyone held their breath at Philip's bold answer.In fact, Ashton Rowles looked so shocked that he forgot to close his wide-open mouth."Oh my! Has the Prime Minister lost his mind?" a minister standing not far from Ashton, muttered.A friend of his who was also a minister replied, "He has indeed gone mad.""I think he dares to contradict the king because he is not willing to lose his position," another minister said.A forestry ministry staff nodded, "You're all right, Ministers. It looks like Prime Minister Crawford can't accept the king's decision.""That's obvious. It's just that ... if I were the Prime Minister, I would do the same thing," another ministry staffer said.The Minister of Social Affairs responded, "Why?"The person shrugged, "The problem is ... he was replaced by someone who has criteria far below his. Just imagine! Gary Davis was just a personal assistant. He's nothing more than an ordinary man

    "No, I told you he couldn't do it, Prime Minister," Ashton Rowles said quietly.However, from the tone of his voice, Philip sensed that Ashton was not sure of what he was saying.That made Philip cluck his tongue, while Ashton himself was also actually beginning to be unsure and astonished.However, he would not reveal his doubts to Philip because he did not want his senior to feel upset."Never mind, if he really intends to fire me, I'll accept it. Maybe it's time for me to retire from the palace," Philip said in a gloomy tone.Ashton suddenly felt sorry but he knew he could do nothing but wait for the king's decision."The position of Prime Minister of Ans De Lou Kingdom will still be held by Philip Crawford who has contributed so much to this kingdom," Xylan said.Philip gaped in disbelief.While Ashton immediately laughed with relief and said, "I'm right, Prime Minister? He didn't fire you.""Congratulations, Prime Minister. You're still in your position," another minister said.T

    Apparently Ashton did not take offense even though Philip said to him in a sarcastic tone.Instead, Ashton smiled soothingly, "I wouldn't laugh at my senior, Prime Minister."Ashton was indeed fifteen years younger than Philip. Apart from being much younger than Philip, Ashton also had less experience than Philip.Ashton Rowles only set foot in the palace about twelve years ago, when he was 30 years old. He was appointed Minister of Education 4 years ago when he was only 38 years old.He was indeed one of the youngest ministers ever in the Ans De Lou Kingdom, but when compared to Philip Crawford who had served in the palace for more than twenty years, he certainly did not compare."So, why?" Philip asked, still with a resentful tone.Ashton replied, "King Xylan values others. I ... firmly believe that he will retain you, Prime Minister."Philip was stunned, "How can you be so sure, Ashton?"Ashton suddenly became happy, as well as relieved.
