Kurt Zys smiled mockingly, "Thank you?"He then spat to the side and said again, "Are you dreaming? Do you think that by capturing us, you think your army will win over our army?"Kurt laughed dismissively. "In case you forgot ... I'll remind you, we ... have an important person from your kingdom.""That's right, your war general is in our hands. What can you do with your new war general? What can he do?" a soldier sitting beside Kurt said in an annoying tone.Kurt flashed his mocking smile again to irritate Justin.Justin raised his right eyebrow and immediately realized that there was no way he could get what he wanted from the enemy soldiers. The young man sighed softly. He felt that talking to the enemy soldiers was pointless so he simply replied, "Well, since you can only belittle us, it would be much better if we didn't hear your voice."Kurt frowned, looking somewhat confused.However, it wasn't long before he heard Justin command, "Shut them all up! Don't let even one of them
A class two soldier of James' age replied, "Maybe he was practicing during his long break."Ben shook his head, "I'm not sure.""You mean, Senior Ben?" Jason Hoult asked with a facial expression full of confusion.Ben smiled faintly.Without turning his head towards Jason, the man who had long been a class one soldier replied, "There's no time for that. He's very busy managing his business.""What business, Senior Ben?" Jason asked back, looking both surprised and curious. Ben almost tapped his forehead from talking too much."Uh, what are we doing? Isn't it time to help him? Come on, Jason. Get back to your position!" Ben ordered.Jason was forced to move away from the area in disappointment. Uh, he was really very curious about the story of James Gardner.He used to feud with the young man who always had a cold impression, but he could finally understand James' attitude.James always had an annoying expression on his face, but the young man wasn't actually an annoying man. In fact,
James didn't have to wait long to connect with Josh Cleve.Once connected, before James could speak, he heard Josh say, "I've got it, General Gardner."James didn't have time to reply, but Josh was already speaking quickly, "Thank you, General Gardner. This is all because of you.""If it wasn't for your strategy, I wouldn't have been able to conquer the sea area," Josh continued, sounding like someone who was holding back tears.He didn't even dare to look directly through the screen at James.James smiled at Josh and chuckled, "Gosh, are you going to cry?"Josh snorted but everyone could see that Josh was really very moved. All the soldiers of Ans De Lou Kingdom had known all the efforts that Josh Cleve had made to improve his sea warrior skills. However, he had not been successful.However, after James Gardner became his leader, he was able to bring victory to the Ans De Lou Kingdom.With so much gratitude Josh said again, "It's all thanks to you, General."James instantly shook his
Xylan could only remain silent without being able to say a word.Keannu sighed softly. He looked at his son who was still so shocked.The old man said hoarsely, "I know you're not ready yet, but ... I believe you're capable of leading this country."Xylan lifted his head and looked at his father's pale face that looked so very weak.Xyan instantly wanted to curse himself. How could he think so weakly? He may be young, but he was not ignorant. Over the years he had learned various things, including about the government system. His father had also taught him about many things to prepare him as his successor.Then, after all that had happened, how could he be hesitant like that?Moreover, his father's condition no longer allowed him to rule the country. Keannu Wellington was no longer young. He had experienced a great deal of health problems.Keannu's time as a king was up. The old man should spend his old age living a much more relaxed life.So, as his son, he naturally had to support
Xylan immediately realized that his father wouldn't just let him go. He knew that Keannu Wellington wasn't in the best of shape, but his father was still thinking things through carefully.Therefore, Xylan who had never lied and would never want to lie, especially to his father replied, "Yes, Father. He is not a palace staff who has been in the palace for a long time. In fact, he doesn't even have any relationships with other palace officials."Keannu instantly fell silent.Xylan quickly composed words and continued, "But ... I can guarantee that he will do his duty well. You will see that my choice will not be wrong." Keannu let out a long breath.Xylan was beginning to worry.And after a long silence, Keannu finally looked back at his son and said, "Alright."Keannu's one-word statement confused Xylan so he asked again, "Alright? What do you mean, Father?"Keannu smiled gently, "You can choose him."Xylan gaped, looking even more surprised than before. "Father ... you're not joking
James sighed softly, it was clear that the soldier knew nothing about the latest situation outside."Yes, I'm back. I wasn't captured by them," James explained as he helped the soldier to lean against the wall.James glanced at his friend who looked very weak, but didn't dare to touch him as his wounds looked much worse.James examined the soldier's wound whose shirt had been torn off briefly and knew immediately that the soldier must have been severely tortured.He gritted his teeth, trying to contain his anger. "Then ... did we win, Deputy War General?" the class two soldier asked with a hopeful look in his eyes.James nodded, "Yes, we won.""R-really, Vice General of War? We won? I'm not dreaming, am I?" the soldier asked with tears on the verge of falling.James looked at the soldier with a sad gaze.The torture he received must have frustrated the soldier for his emotions to become so unstable."You're not dreaming. We've won," James said.Immediately the soldier touched his weak
Reiner frowned, "That's impossible. Is he lying?"James shook his head firmly, "No way.""How can you believe her so easily?" Reiner asked while still inspecting the area.James sighed softly, "I have never met an Ans De Lou soldier who dared to lie to me."Reiner instantly turned his head and looked at his friend without blinking.Two seconds later he nodded in agreement, "Oh, you're right. How could anyone dare to deal with you?"James waved his hand.He looked up and widened his eyes once he got something. He quickly asked Reiner to come closer to him."What's up there?" Reiner asked as James looked up.However, James did not answer Reiner's question and instead stood on tiptoe and picked up a small object attached to the wall."What is it?" Reiner asked with a curious expression.James examined the object and immediately cursed, "BASTARD!"Reiner was wide-eyed in shock. James' swearing really sounded full of emotion and his tone of voice was almost like someone who was shouting. R
"That’s impossible," Ben said in a firm tone.Reiner also responded, "They couldn't have killed Riley."Ben added, "If they killed Riley, I'm sure they'd have announced it. Or ... at least they would have done something like confuse us with Riley's whereabouts."Seeing James looking frustrated, Reiner said again, "He must be alive. It's just that we haven't found him yet.""That’s right. He was probably transferred to their secret place," Ben said.James' face relaxed more than before when he heard the two friends' soothing words. He was a little more relieved.James then nodded his head, "Then we should find out more.""Yes, we will. Don't worry!" Reiner said.Ben said with a confident tone, "We will definitely find Riley, James."James chose to believe and returned to search more thoroughly. Unfortunately, although the soldiers of Ans De Lou Kingdom had interrogated the prisoners of Mecco Kingdom, they still could not find a single clue regarding Riley's whereabouts.In addition, Ke
Actually it was not only Doris Tan who found it hard to believe what Xylan had decided. However, his three fellow bodyguards also felt the same way.In fact, the images of the three's expressions were very clear from just one look. Especially Jim Chesnut who looked so shocked at Xylan's words. His mouth even opened wide and he forgot to close it again. "Y-Your Majesty, I'm very confused. I ... I-""Doris Tan," Xylan cut Doris off with a stern tone.Doris fell silent, as if knowing that Xylan would soon explain the viceroy's reasoning. Sure enough, it wasn't long before Xylan said, "Hm, you ... did do the right thing by admitting your mistake."He paused for a few seconds, deliberately to give Doris time to calm down before he continued what he wanted to say.When Doris seemed much calmer, Xylan continued, "However, you did it in the wrong way."Ludos Flee frowned, looking confused. Meanwhile, Jim Chesnut looked thoughtful as he squinted slightly.What's wrong? Jim wondered to himsel
In fact, Xylan Wellington never cared about what the people in his palace said. He tended to ignore the gossip about him.In fact, there was once a time when there was a visit from another kingdom, at which time Xylan was asked by his father to greet one of the princes. However, he who was not very good at socializing actually made the king's son from the other kingdom uncomfortable. As a result, there was a bit of a commotion at that time. Xylan was accused of being rude to the prince so that the prince did not feel at home in Ans De Lou Kingdom and ended up leaving the palace sooner than he should have.The situation in the palace was a bit chaotic. Many people considered Xylan to be totally at fault for causing an important cooperation to fail. However, the young man did not care at all and never explained anything.His father, King Keannu at that time also never asked his son and instead seemed to tolerate Xylan's behavior. But, King Keannu had a good reason: he knew his son's ch
Ronald was a little surprised by the king's sudden words. Although it was very natural for Xylan Wellington, the new young king of his country to give an order to anyone, including him.Xylan had indeed given him orders, but only as ordinary orders when he was still a crown prince.And that time the situation seemed different. Because, that day was the first day Xylan gave him an order after Xylan assumed the title of king. So, it was obvious that the serious tone of the order made Ronald a little nervous. Even though he didn't know the king's orders yet, he still replied, "Yes, Your Majesty. I am ready to accept your orders."Xylan said again, "Then prepare yourself because you will be going outside the palace."Of course the order shocked Ronald even more, "What's going on, Your Majesty? Have I made a mistake that you are angry with me? Then, then ... you want to throw me out of the palace."Ronald's body began to tremble slightly. The young man was very frightened if what he was th
Not knowing how to answer, he thought for a while."I-I dare not give my opinion, Your Majesty," Ronald said in the end.Suddenly, Xylan was dissatisfied. The young man exhaled harshly, seemingly displeased with Ronald's answer. Xylan coldly said, "Your king is asking you a question and you refuse to answer?""You want to defy me, Ronald?" Xylan continued.Ronald hurriedly knelt before Xylan with his head bowed deeply. He swallowed hard, realizing that the viceroy was angry with him. He immediately regretted having made the foolish mistake of not answering the king's question.The young squire stammered, "I beg your forgiveness, Your Majesty."Xylan remained silent, reluctant to reply to Ronald as his temper was rising."Your Majesty, I didn't mean to upset you. I-""Then answer!" Xylan commanded through gritted teeth.Ronald caught his breath and then said quietly, "I think he's good, Your Majesty."Xylan raised an eyebrow, looking at Ronald who was still kneeling."So what? What el
Rowena's blunt statement was right on target. Xylan Wellington was rendered helpless. The young king of the Ans De Lou Kingdom was not even able to reply even a few words.Meanwhile, Rowena, who felt that her brother was beginning to understand her explanation, finally breathed a sigh of relief.Rowena said softly, "I don't think I'm better than you in terms of government. Of course you're much smarter than me. You're the king. However, I know how to judge people. And I don't think ... you should just trust Gary Davis until you're absolutely sure and find out a lot about him."Xylan remained silent.The young man was not unwilling to reply to his older sister's words. He just didn't know how to do it.At that moment he just felt very careless. Hearing his sister's words, he was really very embarrassed."Well, I have to go see Kharel. I've left him alone too much," Rowena finally said after looking at the large clock above the wall.The young woman hurriedly walked away without another
With limp shoulders Rowena nodded slowly, agreeing to Xylan's words which were true according to her.Xylan was dumbfounded, disbelieving. There really was such a person? War general is not an arbitrary position. How could anyone willingly give such an important position to someone else? It doesn't make sense, Xylan thought with his forehead folded.Rowena watched her younger brother's reaction and then she too sighed softly. The young woman said, "Yes, I know people won't easily believe that there's someone like Riley. However ... everyone who knows Riley very well would think that the things Riley does are no big deal for him." "He's not a person who's crazy about important positions and he wouldn't hesitate to sacrifice himself, including his position and even his life for others," Rowena added, reinforcing the argument she believed to be true.Xylan still looked unconvinced and instead completely doubted his sister's thoughts. Hm, she could have temporarily let James Gardner ta
Being treated like a child by Rowena, of course Xylan would not accept it. He was a king. He didn't want his prestige to fall before everyone just because he was still treated like a child by his older sister.He quickly looked around to see if anyone had seen his sister touching the hair on the back of his head. However, he breathed a sigh of relief when no one saw him.Uh, I've become a king. No one will dare to look at me if I don't give them permission, Xylan said to himself. The young man shook his head, feeling like he was worrying too much about something that didn't really matter."No, no. It's not that I don't trust you, Rowena. The thing is ... it's ...."Oh, Xylan was at a loss for words. He had trouble stringing words together, afraid that his words might offend his sister.However, he noticed Rowena's silence, as if she was waiting for him to say more so he said, "Look, sis. Riley is married to you and you have a child. How could Riley have disappeared on purpose?"Rowen
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 agai
