Andrew Reece noticed the forehead of the war general he served so faithfully was furrowed and he cautiously began to speak, "Perhaps, they are not from another kingdom, General."

Bill immediately turned his head and gave a questioning look in return, "No? Then where do you think they are from?"

Andrew moistened his lips, trying to give a neutral but purposeful answer, "I suspect that they might be people from your neighbourhood, General."

Bill sighed softly. He disagreed but still appreciated the answer given by Andrew. The young man had the courage to say his answer, so there was no reason for Bill to sneer at it.

So he chose to say slowly.

"Hm, I have many enemies, but I don't think anyone would dare to kill me, Reece. My enemies in Carlo Hill are just ordinary people," Bill said.

"Ordinary people are also very likely to commit such acts, General," Andrew replied, still seemingly confident in his answer.

However, even after hearing that, Bill still couldn't accept it.

    The sudden change of subject actually took Andrew a little by surprise, but he thought quickly. "You've never fought him, General but General Gardner has." "Uh, I see. Bring me the full document tonight, Reece!" Bill ordered. "Yes, General." In another part of the palace, Keannu Wellington was standing in his flower garden that night when Amanda Clark, the palace secretary who had served the kingdom for several years, came to him to report something. Keannu realized she was coming after the guard told him. "Your Majesty," Amanda Clark greeted as she bowed slowly. "Yes, Amanda. Did you get it?" Keannu asked. "Yes, I have, Your Majesty," Amanda replied as she handed a white tablet to the king. Keannu immediately took his reading glasses and opened the document and read it carefully. "Good, this is very good. We can use this to attack them," Keannu said happily. Amanda Clark looked down and smiled with relief. "So, should I tell General Gardner now, Your Honour?" Keannu Wellin

    Keannu Wellington's eyes gave a look of disbelief. He even stared in bewilderment at the best general the Ans De Lou Kingdom had ever had and was even adored by all the people of Ans De Lou and trusted by his father. "General Mackenzie, of course this is very pertinent. Don't you think we can use that to destabilise the kingdom, General?" Keannu asked, suddenly filled with so much fervour that Bill could feel his excitement. Bill's brow furrowed in confusion, "You mean you intend to use this scandal to threaten or frame King Maldiva, Your Majesty? Is it really like that?" Keannu was happy that Bill finally understood his brilliant idea. "Exactly. We can use that to strike a deal with them. I'm sure they'll be unlikely to attack if they know we've got evidence of that Kingsley scandal." Keannu chuckled at the thought of that haughty king surrendering to him. It must feel so good to see your enemy bow before you, helpless. His eyes wandered far and wide, as if the King of Maldiv

    "Monica, you know how great he is right?" Keannu replied even more annoyed. "Well, no matter how great he is, if you can't control him, it's useless, right?" Monica said. Keannu immediately made a move, ordering all his bodyguards and servants to get out of the way. Gosh, his mood really got worse after he heard his wife's words. Monica let out a long sigh, the young queen looked sorry for her husband. "Then, what exactly did he do?" "He just criticised my way of winning." "What kind of way?" Monica asked. Keannu was very open with his wife. He told his queen everything. There was not a single secret he hid from Monica Wilhelm. So, this time he didn't hesitate at all when he told her, "I found out an interesting piece of information about the crown prince of the Maldiva Kingdom and it's a scandal. I intend to use this to threaten the King of Maldiva." Monica nodded, easily understanding the story quickly. "Oh, I see and that arrogant general disagrees? Is that what he criticiz

    "Sorry, Your Majesty. Forgive me if I have been presumptuous. But, this is my first time meeting you," Bill said. Monica frowned, a little unsure. There was no way she had the wrong person. This person standing not far from her was definitely that person. The person she had met a few years ago. Uh, it was so long ago, but the old incident was a common occurrence and she easily forgot about it. So, she was sure she could not have recognized the wrong person. In fact, the person's face had not changed. There was no significant change at all. "No, no. You're wrong, we've met before. It was at ....." The woman could not continue and soon realised she was not alone with Bill. So many bodyguards and servants were around them. If she made a wrong move, tomorrow's unpleasant gossip could spread throughout the palace. Her good reputation could be damaged and she did not want that to happen. For Monica Wilhelm, her position and reputation in front of the public was certainly the most impo

    "There's something I need to discuss with him," Bill replied, putting an end to any questions Andrew might have asked. Andrew didn't dare ask any more questions after seeing the general's face looking so unkind. Bill once again checked all the equipment and afterwards made some important notes. The next morning, exactly two days before they were to attack the kingdom of Maldiva, Bill met the war general after getting the permission obtained with Andrew's help. "I didn't realize that Andrew Reece had turned into your loyal servant," Jody quipped as Bill entered his private residence. Bill was being satirised and he replied casually, "Ever since I entered this palace, Andrew Reece has been the one who has helped me the most in various ways." "Hm, of course I can see that." Jody's gaze looked unfriendly but since he and his war advisor had to work together this time then he tried to suppress his ego for the time being. "So, what did you have to say this morning?" Jody asked. "Ab

    Keannu unburdenedly replied, "Of course. I've thought about what the future holds." "Are you sure?" Monica asked, clearly doubtful of her husband's words. "You doubt my word, darling?" A smile appeared on the queen's lips, "I don't know if this is a doubt or not. But one thing is for sure, I know you somehow." Keannu Wellington replied with a small chuckle but it was enough to prove that what was inside Monica's head was a little bit of the truth. "You must have thought of getting rid of one of them, right?" Monica guessed. Keannu Wellington stopped his laughter and looked at his wife intently, before replying with another chuckle that now sounded even more unpleasant to hear. The queen did not return the laughter and only stared at her husband curiously so the young king immediately replied, "You are indeed very suitable to be my wife, my queen." Monica bit her lower lip and looked away, "Isn't the reason you married me because I can understand your thoughts? I'm famous for g

    Cassandra widened her eyes, "Grandpa." Arthur walked over and intended to touch Cassandra's hand, but the woman firmly jerked the bodyguard's hand away. Cassandra was too shocked at what was happening. She still found it hard to believe that her grandfather would do such a thing to her, his biological granddaughter. "Cassie. Obey or-" "Or what, Grandpa? Marry me off to another man?" Cassandra interrupted as she took a few steps back. She shook her head, looking so hurt. "Don't be stubborn, Cassie!" Christopher snapped. "Arthur, what are you waiting for?" George said, ordering his grandfather's men back. Cassandra gave her brother a disappointed look and turned her head back to her grandfather, "Why, Grandpa? What did I do wrong?" "Don't listen to her, Grandpa! Just get over there!" Shirley cut in quickly, not wanting to give her sister a chance to avoid their grandfather's punishment. Cassandra really didn't understand. These three people near her were her family. They shared

    Bill's words made Shirley tremble, somehow they managed to make her so scared. Indeed, since the man disappeared and then reappeared in the family Bill's aura looked very much different. However, only once did she feel the fear that broke her heart. But that didn't happen to Christopher Wood who had a very hard heart and a pretty bad temper. Rather than feeling fear, the man was so angry that he felt humiliated to have been threatened by his useless grandson-in-law. The old man snarled angrily, "Who do you think you are to threaten your grandfather-in-law, you brat?" "You're so arrogant to even have a job!" Christopher added, seemingly unable to control his anger at all. The veins in his neck were even visible as he shouted angrily. However, Bill didn't have time to reply because he was more busy taking his wife to the hospital. Luckily for Bill, Andrew wasn't too far from the Wood family home.

    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

  • The Strongest God of War   52. Yes, Prime Minister?

    "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. For him, Philip Crawford calling his name wa

    "Please, Your Majesty," James said softly to the viceroy.Xylan Wellington nodded with relief.With the courage he had always possessed, Xylan began to give his first speech as king of Ans De Lou Kingdom.The young man was smooth and even charismatic. He delivered his entire speech very smoothly. Not once did he falter. So many people immediately admired him. Not only were the officials and staff of the palace impressed by Xylan's speech, but most of the residents of the palace also seemed to like Xylan."He's still very young, but I'm sure he'll make a good king, just like his father and grandfather," one of the female servants said in the grand palace.A friend standing next to her responded, "He not only has a very handsome face, but is also very authoritative. I ... can't believe that the little prince is now officially our king.""The youngest and handsomest king in our kingdom," another servant agreed.The other servants nodded along, agreeing with the words of their friends.

    James casually replied, "Nothing."Gary certainly didn't believe it. The young man looked at James with a curious gaze.Not wanting to make Gary suspicious, James said, "I just didn't realize that you ... were so close to Prince Xylan.""How long have you served Prince Xylan?" James added."Just a few years, General Gardner. About three years," Gary explained.James nodded his head. The war general immediately thought seriously. But, this time he was trying to extract something from Gary Davis so he chose to throw in a statement for Xylan Wellington's suspicious personal assistant."You do not come from among the palace officials, nor do you have an amazing background but ... Prince Xylan has so much confidence in you. You ... must have some other merit for the Prince to choose you," James said in as normal a tone as possible to keep Gary from being wary of him.Gary was stunned, seemingly amazed by James' words. He was about to give a reply to the war general, but instead he heard J

    Silence.Gary Davis was silent, but appeared to be in serious thought."What else are you thinking about, Gary?" Xylan Wellington said in a very tired sounding tone. He even wore an impatient expression.This made Gary grimace. "Your Highness, but General Gardner is just a replacement War General. Is-""Yes, yes you are right. He is indeed a replacement general," Xylan cut off Gary's words quickly.Gary listened, not intending to interrupt and instead waiting for Xylan to explain further.Xylan sighed softly, "But ... he's also not someone to be trifled with. Everyone respects him. Especially since he's the one who saved our kingdom. He won a battle that even my brother-in-law couldn't do."The young man moistened his lips briefly and continued while frowning, "With such great achievements, I firmly believe no one will dare to oppose him. And I ... will be safe as long as he is my shield."Gary could catch such conviction in Xylan's tone that he could not reply to his future king's

    Gary Davis replied with a serious expression, "Your Honor, I apologize if you find my words presumptuous, but ....""Just say it! Say everything you want to say!" Xylan commanded.From the tone of his voice, Xylan clearly sounded impatient. "I'm ready to listen! And ... I won't get mad at you, don't worry!" Xylan added after he saw the hesitant look on Gary's face.Xylan thought maybe Gary was afraid that he would be punished if he said what was in his head so the future king's salon had to reassure Gary for the young man to be braver.Gary nodded, looking relieved. At least he had an assurance that he would not be punished. "Your Highness, you ... will be made the new king of Ans De Lou Kingdom. You are still very young and you yourself must have guessed that ... that ... I am ...."Xylan clucked his tongue impatiently, "Just say it! I have no problem.
