"Calm down, General Reece can't lose," a class two soldier said, who sounded still full of confidence.James closed his eyes for a second and replied, "Hey, this is not the time for positive thinking. Instead, it's time to be prepared for all possibilities, even the worst."Ben shook his head, "James, we'll see."James turned to Riley and saw Riley just staring seriously without saying a word. James was even more confused.James' breathing was really irregular now. During his time fighting in that place, it was the first time he felt so uneasy.How could he not be anxious and restless? The war general of their kingdom looked almost defeated which could mean that their kingdom would also lose.Some of the senior soldiers also looked extremely tense, completely at a loss as to what action they would take.However, only Riley tried to remain calm and studied the situation for a while. Meanwhile, Andrew Reece kept up an admirable resistance and did not let Fabian Fermoza gain the upper ha
Riley was stunned when he heard James' opinion, which was expressed in a cautious but serious tone.The young man immediately understood that James did not give that opinion carelessly.However, one of the class three soldiers who did not like James at all responded, "Hey, why are you so narrow-minded? You ... really look like your father who was always suspicious-""Leave my father's name out of this, senior! He has nothing to do with what I think," James cut in quickly.He didn't care for his senior's ramblings. He knew he didn't have time to argue so he turned to Riley again as if asking for support.Riley nodded, understanding James' gaze. And unexpectedly by the other soldiers Riley said, "James could be right. It could also be their trick to catch them off guard so ... we need to be much more vigilant."James smiled back faintly at Riley's words and looked around him, curious about the reactions of those around him. Shin, who had also seen how capable the two young men were, no
"Get back here!" Greg ordered.It was clear that Greg was going to step forward in his place. Greg was even getting ready to walk forward.Reiner was about to walk back towards his friends again but he quickly abandoned his intention and instead bowed respectfully to Greg. Greg stared in surprise, "What are you doing? Why are you still there? "Come quickly!" Greg pleaded once again.However, Reiner insisted on staying where he was and once again bowed respectfully as if asking for permission.Greg sighed softly, still silent.However, Reiner looked stubborn and continued to bow.James snorted, "Why is he so stupid? Commander Sehel is already here. He doesn't need to be there.""Commander Sehel is seriously injured, senior Reiner still wants to take his place," Riley said in a low tone.The young man looked at Greg anxiously but right now he couldn't do anything so he could only watch from afar.Ben suddenly turned to Greg who was holding his right hand. He looked carefully at Greg's
The staffer could only nod in resignation.Fabian Fermoza's face hardened instantly. The water on his face looked stiff but the people around him knew that the man was furious.However, before he could vent his anger, Alexander walked up to him suddenly, "General, attack them now! You have no other choice.""Your family is being held captive by the king. You ... must act immediately," Philip added who had come along with Alexander.Fabian sighed heavily. But, a few seconds later he said, "I will do that, but ...."Alexander was relieved but also looked worried."Tell him my one message," Fabian said."Yes, General?" Alexander asked curiously."If I die in this war, he must still free my family. Let them be commoners, win or lose," Fabian said.Alexander widened his eyes and immediately wanted to ask, but he didn't have time to do so.After talking to him, Fabian immediately moved forward and started firing mercilessly at the soldiers of the Ans De Lou kingdom.He also quickly ordered h
Alen unknowingly made a mistake in treating his commander's wound until Greg said, "Be careful, young man. This hand of mine should recover soon.""I ... still have to go to the battlefield to find your close friend," Greg added.Andrew looked at the tension on Alen's face. The war general said quietly, "Alen, what's wrong? You ... look unfocused."How could Alen Smith focus after he heard such an important fact? He even felt so incredibly lucky that he didn't faint right away.Greg exhaled harshly, "He can't focus because he heard about Riley.""Uh, I see. Sorry for taking you by surprise," Andrew said but he did not seem at all sorry for revealing the identity of his war general's son in front of Alen.Alen swallowed with difficulty and summoned the courage to ask, "General Reece, what I heard was ... true?""What part? My promise or what?" Andrew asked with a calm look.Greg glanced at the war general and then shook his head. "Young man, this is actually a big secret that no one sh
Riley felt strange about Fabian's words. Moreover, the words were delivered by Fabian in a bitter-sounding tone.The young man became confused. Indeed, he realized that there was something strange about his battle with Fabian this time. Fabian seemed to be trying his best to kill Riley, but the man was not too concerned about his safety. It was as if Fabian was letting Riley hurt him. However, that was what made Riley even more convinced that Fabian was hiding something. Still, Riley replied, "When I say anyone, it means I will also save the enemy, including you.""Even if the enemy intends to kill you?" Fabian asked with a furrowed brow."Yes."Fabian raised his head, looking at the young man with a fixed gaze. Moreover, Riley then added, "My father always reminded me never to kill, even if the enemy must be killed."Fabian was speechless, more like stunned by the answer Riley had given. Riley was also dumbfounded by the answer he had said, as if he had found the answer to someth
Ben shook his head, as if unable to say anything. Meanwhile, looking around, several other soldiers were bowing their heads. Riley immediately urged to move closer to see the face of the soldier who had been shot and was probably dead.When Riley finally managed to get close and see the soldier's face that was not protected by a protective helmet, his eyes widened. "This can't be.""No, it's not. This must be a mistake."Riley quickly removed his protective helmet and with trembling hands touched the face of the commander who was so loyal to his father."Commander Sehel. How could it be?"It was still hard to believe that the brave and great commander was now lying on the ground. Riley examined the commander's body and shouted hysterically, "He can't be dead. Medical staff, medical staff. Help!""Medical staff, please!" the young man shouted in a louder tone.Several medical staff arrived. The soldiers surrounding Greg Sehel moved aside, making way for the medical staff whose hands
A class two soldier who came along with the medical staff members immediately explained what happened.Andrew Reece listened without interrupting.While Alen Smith who was also listening carefully to the story of the incident that took the life of Greg Sehel, one of the best commanders, shed tears.Alen immediately examined Greg's body with an excruciating feeling of sadness after the soldier finished his story.Andrew came over and sat next to Alen. He then whispered, "Greg, General Mackenzie will be saddened to hear all this, but ... he will also be thankful that you saved his son."Alen heard all of Andrew's words and felt so much admiration for Greg."Commander Sehel is one of those commanders whose loyalty is really very high, his name will be remembered as a hero for all the services he has given," Alen said.Everyone in the tent agreed with Alen. In fact, Andrew also nodded at Alen, a sign that he appreciated what Alen Smith had said.On the other side, in the battle area, every
"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, K
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.
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
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, "Alroght? What do you mean, Father?"Keannu smiled gently, "You can choose him."
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 suppor
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 hi
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 first-class 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 fac
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
Some people began to look worriedly at their war general who had not moved an inch."What the hell is going on?""Why is General Gardner just sitting there?" a class three soldier asked his fellow soldier.The soldier standing right next to him replied, "I don't know. It looks like General Gardner is confused.""What? Why is he confused? Does that mean he's going to ... retreat?"A class two soldier who heard those words instantly turned to the class three soldier as he raised his visor, "What did you just say, huh? You think General Gardner is a coward?""No-no ... so, Senior. But ... why didn't he act immediately? We're already in enemy territory," the soldier replied, who initially seemed to doubt his general stammeringly.The class two soldier who defended James replied, "Perhaps General Gardner is adjusting himself. He hasn't fought in a long time so he might need time to readjust."Another also nodded in agreement and quickly responded, "Right. He is ... one of those great warrio
