Riley suddenly said, "You did it, right?"

James turned to Riley and then replied, "Did what?"

It was clear that James pretended to not know about that.

"Told them about General Mackenzie's son being here?" Riley said, still trying to hold back his emotions.

James shrugged, "I just told them about the possibility. Well, who knows if they believed it?"

Alen Smith snorted, "You did it on purpose because you wanted to find General Mackenzie's son, right?"

Diego said, "You think you can lure the son of the great general to show up?"

Once again, James Gardner visibly grinned and replied, "Of course. That guy will definitely show up on his own. And ... I'll beat him in every match, no matter what."

"Just keep dreaming, as long as you can," Alen said.

Riley said, "It's like you're out of work."

The smug smile vanished from James' face. "Whatever you say, but you three watch. I'll beat him."

Alen and Diego did not respond but Riley said, "Well, good luck then. We'll be your supporte

    Several other people also shouted the same thing."Traitor general's son!" "Get out of here! You don't belong here.""Leave!""Get him out of here!"Mary Kesley, who was the one in charge of the event, immediately raised her hand. "Please calm down!"Unfortunately, Marry's words were completely ignored by the people. They continued to shout excitedly asking James Gardner to leave.The shouts also filled the entire area in front of the gate. It could be said that only a few people were not shouting, including Riley Mackenzie.The young man seemed to not want to make a scene and just stayed there while waiting for them to stop on their own.However, as if deliberately deafening his ears, James Gardner confidently walked towards the front. He then nodded at Mary Kesley who was still trying to calm down the chaos, which was unfortunately still failing.After picking up his backpack, James turned around and walked back to where he had been.But, unfortunately, that was not all that happene

    Riley was quite impressed with the way James looked at the issue of fighting for the soldier's position. The young man even smiled a friendly smile, "You're right. We will compete fiercely." James quickly responded, "I won't be easy for you to beat." "Yes, that's what you have to do. If you're easy for me to beat, then how can you possibly face the person you're looking for?" Riley said. James snorted in annoyance but in his heart he was determined to use all his strength to be superior to all his rivals. "Are we going to stay here until everyone is called?" Allen Smith asked. "I think so," Diego Greco answered as he already looked bored. Riley joined in, "It won't be long. The bags in front are almost gone." "That's right. What do you think the number of potential soldiers will be this year?" Diego asked the three people around him. Alen immediately tried to remember, but Riley was quicker, "Last year there were around 3200 people registering and they only accepted 1000 peopl

    Riley replied quickly, "What are you saying? He probably doesn't even know you exist." James raised an eyebrow and looked sarcastically at Riley, "How could he not know?" Riley smiled in annoyance, "He probably doesn't have time to care about other people's lives." James clicked his tongue, he did not believe in what Riley said.Alen Smith said, "Good grief! Never mind that General Mackenzie's son doesn't have time to find out about you, we don't have either." "That's right. We didn't even think that General Gardner had a son," Diego said honestly. James Gardner looked at the three people who were in the same dorm as him, but he didn't find a lie in their eyes. The 22 year old young man sighed tiredly. "My mother never married my father." He then said.Riley was very, very surprised to hear this too honest confession. Really, he never thought that James would immediately open up like that. Alen and Diego looked at each other, too shocked and confused about how to respond to Jame

    Alen immediately stepped forward full of emotion but Riley quickly stopped the young man by saying, "Hold on!" Alen tried to get away from Riley but Riley still held his arm. "Why should I be the one to hold back, while he just goes around saying things that make people annoyed?" Alen said, looking disapproving. Riley said slowly, "Because he just made you angry. Do you understand that?" Alen was silent so that the young man Riley was calmer and then he let go. Diego was almost losing patience with James but had not done anything yet. James was already standing and crossing his arms, as if challenging Alen to a fight. Riley immediately stood in front of Alen and said in a sharp tone, "Is this all you can do?" James looked at Riley with a confused expression. "You're doing this, pissing off other people and challenging them to fight with you so you don't make too many enemies in the palace soldier recruitment selection?" Riley said. James smiled irritably, "What are you talkin

    Someone even dared to raise his hand. "General." Andrew Reece immediately raised his hand and asked the other prospective soldiers to be quiet and listen to what the young man who was standing had to say. "Yes, please!" Andrew invited the questioner. "General, is that some kind of special program?" The warrior candidate asked excitedly. "Yes. The soldier I train directly under my supervision will automatically participate in the selection of the next war general," Andrew explained. Andrew's explanation certainly made them even more excited. So many people wanted to ask questions but Keannu asked them to be quiet and calm first before letting Andrew continue his explanation. After they calmed down again, Andrew said, "So, there are three candidates who will be the next war generals, replacing me who will immediately step down from this position one year from now." The prospective soldiers looked even more shocked but none of them dared to speak because their king had instructed t

    Andrew Reece replied, "Your Honor, I don't think any of this has anything to do with you at all." "How could it have nothing to do with me? Since he left the palace, he immediately disappeared. His companies were also sold and he must have started a new company. His wife's family also never talked about him, so what if it wasn't because he didn't want the palace to know? By me, to be precise," Keannu explained in a disappointed and sad tone. Andrew Reece turned to the king and said in a calming tone, "Your Majesty, if General Mackenzie hated you, it would be impossible at the end of his reign for you to be close to him. I'm sure you also felt that General Mackenzie was actually friends with you at that time." "Yes, but only for a moment," Keannu replied. Andrew nodded, understanding, "But that's enough to show that your relationship with General Mackenzie has improved since then. So it can't be the main reason." Keannu was silent, trying to believe Andrew's words. "I think he dis

    "Yes, Your Majesty," Andrew Reece answered firmly, as if there was no doubt about his decision. Keannu looked at his war general with a strange look, as if the person sitting beside him had lost his mind. "Are you crazy or what, Reece?" Keannu said with confused eyes. "Your Majesty, I am still very sane. Please listen to my explanation first," Andrew Reece said in a serious expression.Keannu snorted in annoyance but the king who had two children still said, "Say it!" Andrew Reece nodded, excitedly, "James Gardner is said to be looking for General Mackenzie's son. His determination must be very strong. This must be related to events in the past, where Jody Gardner, his father was killed by General Mackenzie." "I already know. That's the problem, Reece," Keannu said through gritted teeth, trying hard to suppress his annoyance at Andrew Reece. "Yes, I understand, Your Majesty. However, that is also what we want, isn't it?" Andrew asked. He tried to make Keannu understand."What do

  • The Strongest God of War   12. You're Wrong!

    James Gardner was silent for a moment, but the young man immediately replied, "Of course I learned about it. That's why I know who killed my father." Several people who initially wanted to attack James with words finally chose to abandon their intentions after they heard the bitterness in James' voice. Riley Mackenzie was at a loss for words. James said again, "You may know all the history of this kingdom better than me, Riley. But ... I certainly understand more than you when it comes to matters related to my father, including my father's murderer." You're wrong, James. I understand the same as you about that problem, Riley thought. The two of them looked at each other as if they had been enemies for a long time, but Riley did not reply to James' last words. "Come on, restrain yourself a little, Riley! You know he's crazy, you don't need to pay attention on him!" Alen said, to which Riley only responded with a small nod. That evening at the palace, all prospective soldiers were

    People were eager to approach Riley, to help him. However, when they saw James Gardner moving toward Riley, they stayed where they were.James quickly caught Riley's staggering body as if he couldn't bear the weight of his own body.James sighed softly, “What are you doing?”“Preventing you from leaving,” Riley replied weakly.James exhaled roughly and picked up Riley who was still so weak.“You don't have to waste your time and energy,” James said.“Why? You don't have to go, James. You-”“It's my decision,” James cut in quickly.Riley shook his head, staring at the young man who was only one year older than him. “You're not guilty. I'm an asshole for wanting to keep you as my best friend.”“It's nice of you to admit that,” James replied with a faint smile.“If anyone should leave here, it's me, not you,” Riley said.James frowned, “Don't be crazy! You're the general of war in this kingdom. You can't-”“I lied to everyone from the start, not just to you,” Riley cut James off.Riley's

    Rowena nodded weakly, while the four soldiers who were also inside the infirmary immediately looked at each other. Riley himself took some time to process the information.However, Reiner immediately asked, "Your Highness, then ... where is the deputy general of war right now?"Rowena turned her head quickly, "I don't know. I ... only heard the news from the palace maid, just now. Perhaps ... he has already returned to the dormitory or-"Thank you, Your Royal Highness," Reiner cut off Rowena's speech quickly due to being too panicked.After that Reiner immediately paid his respects to the king's daughter and quickly left the area together with Diego.Ben also said, "Riley, I'll be there first. Later I ... will be here again."Alen nodded, "Don't worry! We'll let you know when we know what's going on."Riley could only stare at his friends' departure with a look full of confusion.Rowena was the only one left in the room and was accompanied by several staff, soldiers and servants.Row

    At first Riley was eager to force James to answer him, but he stopped doing so when he finally understood that James might need some time alone.He sighed softly, “I'll talk to him later.”Meanwhile, outside Riley's room, all the people who were good friends of the two young people who were having complicated problems were staring at James with questioning eyes.While Alen and Ben were silent because they didn't dare to ask, Diego casually asked, “Did you ... talk to Riley?”James nodded.“Then ... how?” Reiner asked in an anxious tone.James did not answer Reiner's question and only said, “I'm going back to the dorm first.”Shin, who heard that, bit his lip and replied, “I'll accompany you.”James did not refuse and let Shin come with him, while Diego and Reiner remained there.After James and Shin were no longer there, Alen decided to go inside with Ben.Not long after, Diego and Reiner also entered Riley's hospital room area.“He already knew about it,” Ben said when he first looke

    James laughed disappointedly when he saw Riley's silence.Riley suddenly stared at him wordlessly.“Why, did you ... did you never even have the intention of telling me about it?” James said in a sharp tone.Riley opened his mouth but not a single word came out of it.James was getting annoyed at him, “Uh, I see. I see now.”James nodded and stepped back, making Riley surprised.“James, it's not like what you're thinking,” Riley finally managed to reply to James.James shook his head.“Do you really know what I'm thinking, Riley?” James said in a sarcastic tone.The young man could no longer hide his immense disappointment, “You don't know, Riley. But ... I can tell what you're thinking.”“James, I ... know I've wronged you. But, please understand, my position is very difficult. I don't want you to ... hate me, James. I don't have-”“It must have been a lot of fun for you, huh?” James cut off Riley's words quickly.Riley who was originally leaning back immediately leaned her body, fac

    Shin and Reiner glanced at each other, as if they were both confused about whether or not to leave the area as James had requested.However, the reason they hesitated was certainly not because they were both worried that James would hurt Riley. Instead, both of them were more worried about James.Unfortunately, James, who did not get an answer from his two friends, turned his head with a furrowed brow, “Why? Don't you two trust me?”“You guys ... think I would do anything ... to hurt Riley? Is it like that?” James added with a sad look on his face.Shin quickly turned to James, “Of course not. I am sure you wouldn't do anything that bad.”“Don't get me wrong, James! We're ... just very worried about you,” Reiner said quietly.James was startled and when he looked at his two friends in turn, he instantly knew that they were not lying at all.The young man closed his eyes and instantly realized his mistake, “I'm sorry, senior. I ... I ....”“No problem, we'll leave you so you can be alo

    Ben suddenly bowed his head.James immediately closed his eyes, completely unable to believe the painful reality that had slapped him.Meanwhile, Shin looked at his friend with a look of disappointment.He touched Ben's shoulder and asked, “You knew about this big secret and you ... did nothing? What have you done?”Ben was silent.Shin took a deep breath and watched the expressions of all the soldiers who were his best friends. The man sighed softly, “Aren't we ... all friends? How could you ... and you hide this important thing?”Ben raised his head, “Then, what do you expect me to do?”“What did you say?” Shin retorted fiercely.“You think it's easy? Hiding a secret of this magnitude? You think ... what happens if I tell you and the others? Especially James. He ... would definitely fight with Riley. They'll-”“Damn it!” James cursed because he couldn't stand it anymore.The young man said, “Don't act like you know about me and can guess what I might do or happen. You think you can

    Meanwhile, William also began to be confused to calm his wife who was crying more and more.However, Cassandra's crying finally stopped when she saw the operating room door open.Everyone also immediately stared at the door, waiting anxiously.As several people from the medical team came out, William and Cassandra walked over.“Doctor, how is my son?” William asked.The elderly doctor looked up at the middle-aged man who was staring at him anxiously.“General Mackenzie,” the doctor greeted after he noticed William's face.William nodded, “Yes, Doctor Sigmund. It's me.”Sigmund was surprised, “Riley Wood, I mean General Wood is ... your son, General?”“Yes, Doctor,” William replied.James just stared blankly ahead, as if he was ready to hear that statement. Meanwhile, Reiner and the other soldiers could only squeal in shock as an important fact had j

    It didn't take long for James Gardner to understand everything. In fact, afterward he saw Alen Smith greeting the woman and middle-aged man who were obviously a married couple. “Alen, Alen. You're … a medical staff, aren't you?” Cassandra asked the young man she had already met.“Riley will be fine. Isn't he?” Cassandra said frantically.Alen nodded, “You don't need to worry, Mrs. Mackenzie. We will do our best to save Riley.”James was still silent where he stood. Alen's words had explained everything. Alen, one of his best friends, also knew everything that happened. James closed his eyes for a few seconds and chose to hold himself still.The young man took hold of the edge of Riley's bed and helped him to push again. He then said softly, “Alen, hurry up a bit!”Alen was immediately surprised and looked guiltily at James as if he already knew what James was feeling. However, he did not have time to say anything and quickly went about his duties while asking people not to come
