"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

rediculous isn't it? How many soldiers lost their lives because of Gardner's recklessness? They maybe fathers too. But Gardner didn't care. Now, it's his own son who wanted revenge?

    Riley instantly turned to Reiner whose eyes were filled with hope. His forehead wrinkled and he responded, "You think Xylan might be there?"Reiner nodded his head, "If he's not there, where else would he be?"Riley nodded his head and quickly said, "Alright, let's go! Let's go there. I know where it is."Reiner immediately followed his friend who had already started walking. Both of them thought it was likely that James must be around the area. Besides protecting the kingdom, the war general's main duty was of course to secure the king."James can't be far away from Xylan. Moreover, the situation is really very chaotic right now," Riley, who now preferred to avoid the enemy troops' attacks and focused on walking towards the king's hiding place, said. However, Reiner was not like Riley. That man still made several sneak attacks to help the soldiers who were being pushed back in the middle of their journey. He did not try to attack openly. It was not that he did not want the soldie

  • The Strongest God of War   192. Try to Think!

    Actually, Reiner or Riley already knew the answer to that question. Reiner himself just didn't want to accept the reality but together with Riley he also walked faster to approach the man with a gunshot wound to the head in the center.He crouched down.With a gaze full of sadness, Riley held the arm of Ben whose eyes were tightly closed. Reiner cleaned the blood from Ben's mouth. His tears fell silently. Riley bowed deeply and dropped his head on the chest of his dead best friend. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry, Ben," Riley said in a hoarse voice.A feeling of guilt immediately filled his chest cavity. After all, Riley thought that he had a hand in Benedict Arkitson's murder.He had left the palace and let all the residents of the kingdom including his best friends fight the enemy and defend their own kingdom without him. If only he had come sooner and done everything in his power to prevent the war from happening, he would have still been able to see Ben alive.However, his stupidity an

  • The Strongest God of War   191. Royal Traitor

    Gareth Dee was silent for a long time. But it was not because he wanted to keep the soldier there longer, but because he was trying to think deeper. He was a war general who had a duty to protect the country and of course that also included protecting members of the royal family.What Evan De Kruk did was indeed against his principles. However, after all, the crown prince had become the king of his country replacing Thomas De Kruk who had died in an unjust manner.After all, the one who carried out the order was his current king so if he refused or even denied, he could be considered a traitor.That was of course unacceptable so he finally decided, "No. There is no need to part ways.”The soldier who was still bent over was about to open his mouth to refute the war general. However, before he could utter a word, Gareth Dee was forced to speak first, "We must help the king together."Gareth's words made the supporters of Evan's actions smile widely. The soldier standing right in fr

    Ben didn't dodge a beat and simply replied, "Yes."Evan De Kruk had already raised his gun and pointed it at Ben's head, looking at the man with a gaze full of deep hatred.Ben could feel both hate and pain just from the look in Evan's eyes."Any last words?" Evan asked with a face filled with raging anger. Ben cast his eyes around him, sweeping over all the soldiers who had fallen because of his mistake. He had never felt so guilty in his entire life. He had killed a king and he had also made all the soldiers under his command face death. I'm sorry, Ben thought to himself.At that moment he felt like a failed leader. Besides not having strong instincts, he also didn't even have the soul of a decisive leader. He remembered some of his men reminding him that the enemy soldier was not King De Kruk. Even though he himself doubted that. It could be said that he chose to dismiss his own thoughts and decided to let his men make him make the wrong decision. Thus, he felt he had no righ

    Hearing Benedict Arkitson's question, the soldiers who had stopped attacking on his orders fell silent. Ben looked at several soldiers who also looked confused like him. But, as he paid more and more attention to how Evan De Kruk treated the man he shot, Ben quickly understood that the man was really King De Kruk.Ben's legs went weak instantly but he still tried to keep his sanity and said, "Wait a minute. I didn't shoot his vital organs. Why does he seem to ... lose his life?"Ben wasn't stupid. When he saw Evan hugging the man with a wailing cry while occasionally shaking the body as if to wake him up, it was clear that the man he shot was dead. Those few soldiers of the Ans De Lou Kingdom who were with Ben also couldn't reply to Ben's words.Because, they had all carried out various attacks and never once killed someone. None of their techniques had failed. Ben immediately noticed the other enemy soldiers lying on the ground around the area, but it looked like they were all s

    Sion pointed at the front with his index finger where there were so many soldiers lying helplessly on the ground.There were at least more than ten soldiers of the De Kruk Kingdom who had been defeated by the soldiers of the Ans SE Lou Kingdom. They couldn't be dead, but they clearly couldn't put up a fight.Panic immediately accompanied Evan as soon as he saw someone lying weakly on the far right. He was about to run but Sion immediately stopped him by saying, "Your Highness, King Thomas forbids you to go there. You are asked to leave the battlefield immediately."Evan turned to his brother's personal assistant and stared at the young man with a look that wanted to strangle him. "What did you just say?" Evan asked in a cold tone that could make anyone shiver. Sion replied with a stammer of fear, "Your Highness, this is a direct order from King Thomas."Evan gritted his teeth and really wanted to swallow the young man who was still holding his arm alive, "Who do you think you are t
