last update Last Updated: 2023-10-13 09:36:25
A strange smile immediately appeared on the lips of the handsome young king. A face that made Monica Wilhelm, who initially had no intention of marrying someone she didn't like, agree to accept his proposal.

However, this time Monica looked so astonished by her husband's attitude which she thought was becoming more and more.

She was not unaware of her husband's true nature who was not a king with a cool personality, but she still found it difficult to accept the bad side of her husband on this one.

Slowly, Keannu turned that strange smile into a lopsided grin that was clearly meant to be insulting. The one being insulted was, of course, William Mackenzie whom the two were discussing.

"He just lives in his wife's family. A burden to that family. How disgusting."

Keannu paused with a small laugh before resuming his words.

"Can you imagine that? The most powerful war general ever in the Ans De Lou Kingdom is in fact considered a loser in his wife's extended family," Keannu taunted

    The queen of the Ans De Lou kingdom, Monica Wilhelm gave up because there was no way she could fix or thwart what her husband was up to. Keannu Wellington was the most stubborn person she had ever known in her life. If he already had a very strong desire, then no matter what he would definitely try hard to get it. Even if it meant using dirty tricks. Moreover, he was now a king who had power that could be said to be unlimited, so his desires would no longer be unstoppable. So, without wanting to try anymore Monica chose to immediately leave Keannu and go to her own residence. She waited for the arrival of William Mackenzie who was certain to return to the palace even with a compulsion. "Bring the War Advisor here tonight," Keannu ordered while still holding the glass containing the intoxicating drink. Frederick, a young man not much older than Keannu, bowed slowly. However, he suddenly heard Keannu say again, "If you can't bring yesterday, your life is at stake!" The man who was

    The guard jumped in surprise, so much so that he had to take a few steps back. "I don't know, sir," the guard said, starting to look scared. "Move aside!" Bill said. "Sorry, Mr. Bill. You can't come in, Mr. Christopher forbids you-" Unable to wait any longer, Bill burst into the mansion. The guard wanted to stop him, but he didn't dare after seeing the horrified look on Bill's face. Simultaneously, Bill saw the person he was looking for. A grin appeared on Bill's face. For a moment, Arthur looked like he was going to turn around and run away from Bill. But, in fact, he couldn't move his long legs an inch from where he was. His legs felt so heavy, even though his brain had recognized the danger and ordered him to leave immediately. Bill. This grandson-in-law of the Wood family was not at all like before. The man who was much bigger than him now had a different aura that was so frightening. The sweep of his gaze even sent chills down his spine. He looked like a ruthless killer

    "Me? Bill Stewart, husband of your granddaughter-in-law, Cassandra Wood, Grandpa. Have you forgotten that?" Bill replied. Christopher gave him an exasperated look. He was like to kill Bill after hearing what Bill said. To him, it was such kind of a joke. "Get out of here and don't ever come back!" Christopher snapped. Bill sighed, "This is the last time I'm holding back, Gramps. Next time, I won't care anymore. I'll face everyone, including Grandpa!" Bill never played with his words. He would do it. The expletive flew out of Christopher Wood's mouth so smoothly, while Bill left the house with wide strides. He turned around briefly before driving back to the hospital where his wife was being treated. As he parked his car at the hospital, he was somewhat surprised to see several people dressed in black with the royal lily emblem on the front pockets of their suits. The lily flower was the symbol of the Ans De Lou Kingdom. As if he was getting a warning, Bill immediately ran towar

    A few years ago, the year in which the young Jody Gardner had just earned the trust of joining the main force, he was completely shocked by the unusual sight that was presented in front of his two sea-blue eyes just before he attended an official meeting with one of the ministers at the palace. At that time, the new unit was training outside the palace due to its inadequate buildings and facilities. In his full suit, he saw the war machine crouching near the grass and bushes. A young William Mackenzie was trying to free a cat entangled in a rope by the roadside. Afterwards, he picked up the grey stray cat. "It's bleeding, General," Jody said with a disgusted look. He was a soldier who had seen people killed before his eyes on the battlefield and he never minded that. But if the blood was not from the battlefield, he hated it. The handsome and alluring general calmly replied, "He is injured." Jody looked at the cat's paw and winced in displeasure. He looked the other way. "Why a

    Steven did not understand the strange words spoken by his general, so he chose to remain silent, not wanting to make any unnecessary mistakes. "Stev, from now on you'll have to keep a closer eye on the War Advisor." "Yes, General." Jody grinned and said again, "How long will it take you to get him out of here?" "Gen-general," Steven stammered, actually knowing what Jody meant but he was just surprised. Jody turned around, "Come on, didn't you say you'd help me get him out of here, Stev?" "Uh, that problem ... I ... might take a while, General." Jody groaned in displeasure, "Why long? Is it difficult?" "General, King Keannu must be the one to expel him himself. And for that, it means we have to convince King Keannu that Bill Stewart doesn't belong here." "I know that. So?" Jody replied lazily. "Bill Stewart will have to make mistakes that will anger King Keannu so one or two won't be enough. We need more, General." Steven's explanation made Jody smile, "Oh, I see. So, you're

    That morning was the start of Bill being aware of Jody Gardner's every move. At first, he just thought he was scared of him taking his position. But, this soon developed because it seemed that the man was suspicious of him and wanted to destroy him slowly. By approaching the king, who was quite close to him, he was convinced that Jody would use the king to put him in a tight spot. However, he was not someone who easily gave up or accepts defeat. He was a god of war who possessed the highest power the kingdom had ever seen. He certainly did not want to be defeated by anyone, his pride would not allow that to happen. He had been trained to face enemies with various characters. No one could destroy him and no one succeeded in deceiving him. Facing someone like his former subordinate was certainly easy enough for him. He then flashed a sincere smile as he looked at Jody Gardner. "Oh, of course, Your Honour." Bill said as he turned around and said again, "Thank you, General." Jo

    "Why are you looking at her like that, Dorothy?" Jody Gardner asked as he was suddenly behind her. Dorothy turned round and faced her lover, "Just wondering. By the way, I haven't had a chance to congratulate you on your victory yet." Jody Gardner smiled even though his mind was filled with suspicion. He had clearly seen the way his lover stared in confusion at the War Advisor. "It's good to have you back here. Is everything sorted out?" Jody asked. Dorothy nodded, "Of course. But, it's getting more and more tiring by the day. Do you think I should just quit working at the palace?" "What? Quit?" "Yes. I'm so tired of doing all this routine. But, how ... life also requires money so I think I should refrain more from staying here until I have enough money," Dorothy said. Jody Gardner said, "Wait a minute. Why are you bothering to think about the economy? There's me, Dorothy." "You do. Of course, but how could I bother you all the time?" Dorothy said so honestly. "You never trou

    "You ... ask too many questions, Reece!" Bill said as he seemed to no longer want to discuss the matter. Andrew Reece no longer wanted to ask questions and chose to try to forget about the matter and talk about other matters. "General, what about the war in two weeks at Mondega?" Andrew asked when he was now distracted. Bill was really happy to have such an understanding subordinate like Andrew Reece. He then tried to recall the name that his loyal subordinate had mentioned. "Mondega?" Bill repeated. "Yes, General. A kingdom located in the north, close to the border of the Cruela Kingdom." Bill was still thinking and digging into his memory. Then, as if remembering something, he said, "Uh, the kingdom that has the largest export of armaments?" "That's right, General. The Mondega Kingdom used to be one of the centres for making our weapons in the days before you became a war general here." "Why should we go to war against them? Isn't it the case that even though they no longer s

    James suddenly gave Gardner a lopsided smile. He knew it was not easy being Xylan Wellington's shield. But, he really did not expect that the crown prince who he thought was so smart was also so innocent.His intelligence seemed to be inversely proportional to his knowledge in terms of understanding the world around him.However, he had already decided to replace Riley in order to make up for the few years of time he had wasted so he should try to be patient.Thus, he calmly replied, "You should start thinking about the matter of all of their opinions, Your Highness.""Why should I?" Xylan retorted, who did not seem to accept James' words.James bit his lower lip, feeling the need to suppress his irritation even more. Come on, James. Don't give up so easily! James thought to himself."Because you are the future king and will soon inherit the throne of this country. So, you should start thinking about what they think of you," James replied.Xylan was about to reply, but James was fas

    The indecision on Xylan Wellington's face was evident. James Gardner, who felt that he had succeeded in making the crown prince realize the big mistake Xylan was about to make, called out, "Your Highness."Xylan flinched slightly when he heard his name being called by James.The young man turned to James, but still did not open his mouth.At that moment, James Gardner was certain that Xylan would change the decision they had just discussed.However, he suddenly saw Xylan smiling at him. That of course made James blink his eyes in confusion.But, within seconds, his confusion was answered. He heard Xylan say, "General Gardner, what you said is true. Everything is right. I ... might get some opposition for choosing Gary Davis as the king's advisor."He nodded. James immediately got a bad feeling that he didn't want to imagine."But, General Gardner. I have found no other good candidate than Gary Davis for that position. And ...."He paused for a moment, seemingly thinking about somethi

    "Yes, that's right. My personal assistant who ... is currently outside the door of my father's residence," Xylan replied, not seeming to find anything strange about his answer.James was still so shocked that he was left speechless, at a loss for what to say in response to Xylan's explanation."Why, General Gardner?" Xylan asked as he looked at James who was not speaking.James moistened his lower lip, still thinking of the right words.However, Xylan couldn't wait for him so he spoke again, "General Gardner, I know what you're thinking."James blinked his eyes, looking stunned.Xylan let out a long breath, "This must be the status of Gary Davis who is my personal assistant, right?"James' eyes widened slightly until he then looked at the crown prince with an astonished look.That's what I mean, why would you even think of making a personal assistant an advisor to the king? Have you ... lost your mind, Your Royal Highness? James thought to himself.Uh, James Gardner actually never jud

    "Tell me, so I can do what I should, Your Royal Highness," James added.Xylan returned the war general's gaze with a look that looked very serious. The young man who had originally made one of the major decisions finally opened his mouth, "It has to do with ... the determination of the new palace officials after I take office as king."James was silent for a moment, looking a little surprised. It was only natural that Xylan Wellington had been thinking about his future reign. However, he didn't think it was the right time.His father hadn't even been buried yet. Why was he already thinking of something else? Isn't he still grieving? James thought.Xylan cleared his throat, causing James to give him a strange look. Not wanting James to think strangely about him or even misunderstand him, Xylan hurriedly explained, "General Gardner, it's not what you're thinking."James did not respond immediately and instead waited for Xylan's further explanation.Xylan himself was smart enough to q

    However, before James Gardner could think further about it, Monica Wilhelm, the queen who had just lost her husband said, "Never mind, there's no need to prolong it anymore."Afterward, Monica turned her body around and faced the palace officials who were still in the palace. She sighed softly before saying, "As I wanted earlier, are you willing to let us mourn the passing of your king before we organize a funeral ceremony for him?"Without hesitation, all the palace officials unanimously replied, "Yes, Your Majesty."One by one, the palace officials left the king's residence area, leaving only the special soldiers protecting the king, queen, princess and crown prince.Meanwhile, some of James Gardner's men also remained in the area as per James' orders."General Gardner, please help," Monica said.James nodded and immediately did his duty as the kingdom's war general to prepare all the necessities used for security.

    "Uh, if you're not ready to give up that important position, shouldn't you be careful when you speak, Prime Minister? Remember, what you're talking about is not appropriate," James said in a sharp tone.Anyone who heard James' threatening voice would surely be afraid. James waited but he was sure that his threat would be effective making that prime minister afraid of him.And unexpectedly, James Gardner's threat succeeded in silencing old Philip. Philip no longer dared to speak and remained silent. However, his resentful gaze could still be seen by James.Of course, you must be very upset with me, Prime Minister. However, you certainly don't want to lose your position just because of that ridiculous accusation, James thought.This made Monica Wilhelm and her two children feel a little calmer."Y-Your Majesty, I... I ...." Philip tried to speak again, but his nervousness was so obvious that James knew the old man would not dare to say anything nonsense again. James immediately respon

    Philip Crawford coughed as he heard James Gardner's words.James raised his right eyebrow, seemingly waiting for Philip's explanation.Philip cleared his throat and replied without daring to look at James, "I am not the one accusing you, General Gardner. It's just that ... the entire population of the Ans De Lou Kingdom is talking about this. Let's just say I'm just relaying what they're thinking."James laughed softly, making Philip instantly turn to him. Likewise, Monica and her two children looked surprised at the war general's reaction."W-what's so funny about what I said that you're laughing, General Gardner?" Philip said in an offended tone.James stopped his laughter and sighed softly before saying, "There's nothing funny. It's just that I find you very cowardly, Prime Minister.""Cowardly? What do you mean, General?" Philip widened his eyes, clearly taking offense."That's right. Of course you're just a coward. You're acting on behalf of the people's opinions, when it was you

    "So, you can give us time to mourn our family members, right? You have not forgotten that Keannu Wellington was not only the king of this country, but he was the head of our family. He is my husband, the father of my two children and a grandfather to my grandson," Monica said in a flat but firm tone.The queen's words apparently succeeded in making the palace officials look at each other and finally fell silent.Some of them seemed to take a few steps back as if they really didn't want to disturb members of the royal family anymore. James Gardner himself smiled to see the palace officials, some of whom were important ministers, not moving in front of the queen. James could not help but be impressed by the queen's ability to make people obey her orders. It was because according to James it was very rare.Before he gave up his post as a deputy general of war, he had met so many queens from various kingdoms around the world. However, not many queens had authority. Monica Wellington wa

    Since James had not moved from where he was standing and was instead as still as a statue, Rowena immediately glanced at Xylan.Xylan of course understood her sister's meaning so she quickly said, "General Gardner, are ... are you alright?"James snapped out of his reverie and nodded at Xylan. With confusion ruling his mind, he still stepped into the king's room.Once he entered the area for the first time, James could see the body of the king of Ans De Lou Kingdom lying stiffly on the luxurious bed. He could only exhale softly at the sight of the person who had been responsible for the complicated relationship between his father and Riley's father. As a result of the dead king's mistake, his relationship with Riley was strained.However, the king had apologized to him and he had forgiven all his mistakes so there was no anger or resentment in James' heart.Instead, he was saddened by the loss of Keannu Wellington.
