"You're right, maybe if we knew your reasons and what they wanted, we wouldn't have to go to war," Bill replied so casually.

Jody immediately threw his darts and said, "Don't tell me that you're afraid to make a war strategy for us this time. Can't you actually make a strategy until you want to make peace?"

Bill shook his head. It seemed like he had to be more restrained in order not to be provoked by anger when he was with Jody Gardner.

"General, war is the last resort when both parties can't work together to make peace or perhaps the conflict has become too severe that the most appropriate way is by."

Jody took offence to Bill's words but before he could protest, Bill had already said again, "If the conflict underlying a war is not too strong, the best way is to negotiate to make an agreement between the two sides. Then, if there is no good agreement or the two kingdoms prefer to go to war then we go to war."

"Damn it. You think I don't know about that?" Jody retorted completely

    "That's right, Your Honour. Once again I apologize for my rudeness but it's for our own good," Bill said, looking earnest and calm. "Good?" Keannu repeated still trying to process Bill's explanation. Bill nodded, "Yes, Your Honour. You can either have General Gardner decide everything or you can keep me and have him out." Keannu's head felt as if a bomb had exploded in his head. He really did not understand. He did not expect the election between the two people who were so important to him to have started now. He thought it would only happen in the future. In fact, it was something he had to face earlier. "Your Honour," Bill called out. Keannu sighed wearily, "General, this was not a very easy decision. You chose the position yourself and now you're making me have to choose. If this is the case, why didn't you replace Jody Gardner as War General a long time ago?" Bill replied still with his head slightly bowed in deference to the king, "Your Majesty, if someone from among the c

    "War Advisor? Seizing my position? Seriously. How could there be such a thing here?" Jody replied with an awkward laugh. The man then continued his words with a rather serious look on his face. "You're not making any sense, Dorothy. Why should I be afraid of a new person like him?" Jody said who was now looking the other way, not wanting to look at Dorothy. Dorothy Winks of course laughed at that, "Me? Unreasonable? If you're really not afraid of your position being taken by him, shouldn't you be annoyed that you now have to think of a war strategy by yourself?" Jody Gardner could no longer stand his lover's offensive words. "Enough! I don't want to talk about it. He's just a bit like General Mackenzie. It doesn't matter if I hate him. I don't have to explain my reasons to you, do I?" Annoyed, Dorothy chose to leave her lover in exasperation while grumbling once on the way. She did not know why her lover had not forgotten the shadow of the great general. It was true that no on

    "Hm. No way, I'm going home," Cassandra said firmly, looking unfazed. Peter shook his head in disbelief, "Women! So easily swayed!" "Good decision, Cassie," Christopher said with a bright smile. "We'll get your new room ready," George said with a smile that was just as bright as Christopher Wood's. Christopher then said, "Of course, I'm pretty sure you're going home. Why put up with that vague Bill? Just get your divorce taken care of, Cassie!" "Do you want me to take care of it, Cassie?" George offered, looking happy to do it for his sister. "Besides, it's a very dangerous job, we don't know what might happen in the future," Shirley said. Peter snorted loudly, "Come on, Cassie. Do you believe what these guys are saying?" Peter pointed at the three people with disgust. His outlook had completely changed and he now didn't seem to be on the side of Bill's haters. "Peter, what are you saying?" Shirley said, unable to understand her husband's behaviour. Peter rolled his eyes lazi

    Bill, of course, had also calculated that this would happen, so he calmly replied, "Yes, General. I am willing to resign from this palace if I lose the war with the Mondega Kingdom." Inwardly, Jody Gardner laughed at Bill's foolishness. On the outside, however, he was acting like a cool general. "Alright, I have your word. If you break them, I will not hesitate to force you to leave this palace. Do you understand?" "Understood, General Gardner." "Good," Jody replied. He got ready to turn around, but she was unexpectedly held back by Bill. "But what if I win, General Gardner?" Jody sighed. Really? He was so arrogant to say that he could win? Doesn't he know the situation is dangerous right now? A cold war would be far worse than an open war. Did he not realize that at all? Jody wondered. "Are you sure you can win?" Jody said with a smirk, as if challenging Bill. Bill smiled and replied, "If I wasn't sure, I wouldn't have come forward, General Gardner." Jody laughed, unable t

    "Paralyse it!" Bill said. In the next second, there was a fierce fight between the two sides. Both sides fought each other with their bare hands. Bill could easily conclude that the Mondega Kingdom did not want to fight with them. At least they wouldn't kill each other this time, that was Bill's guess. This was because the troops of the kingdom that had several tourist areas in the area near the mountains did not carry weapons even though they were an armour supply country for various kingdoms. Nevertheless, it seemed that the leader of the royal army bearing the white rabbit seemed to want to test the skills of some of the bodyguards brought by Bill. However, Bill was not deterred at all. The man even managed to knock down some of the royal troops in just a short time. The enemy was unable to move freely as their attacks were always preceded by Bill. "How can he be that fast?" one of the soldiers muttered while standing next to a large, well-built man who appeared to be the

    Bill glared at him in shock. "General Cleve, what are you doing?" Bill looked around him and now the royal troops were staring at them with looks of surprise and shock. "I ... it's me, Eland Cleve. The boy you saved ten years ago. General Mackenzie, have you forgotten me?" Eland asked with a questioning look. Bill stepped back, his expression full of shock. "You know who I am?" Eland nodded with certainty, not looking the least bit hesitant. "How'd you know about me?" Bill asked in confusion. As far as he could remember, few people actually knew their identity. And certainly the person who recognized him was certainly someone from his own kingdom, not from another kingdom. However, this person who served as the highest troop leader in the Mondega Kingdom could recognize him and even claimed to have been saved. How could that be possible? He himself had just set foot into the land of the greatest weapon maker in the European region for the first time. Then, how did that ma

    "See you next time, young man," Bill said. "But, sir. Your hand-" "Uh, this little wound? It's not a problem. It's nothing for a man to have a wound on his body, young man," Bill said. Teenage Eland stared questioningly. Bill smiled gently and then declared, "A wound can be likened to a sign of effort or struggle. So, isn't it cool that a man has this kind of mark?" Eland was stunned. He was very amazed with those words. He never expected to hear such a thing. "A man without a wound is a man who never fought, young man," Bill said. The gallant soldier then flashed Eland a warm smile just before he left him alone there. When he was only a few metres away, he turned around and waved his hand once more, "Be a strong soldier, young man!" "Yes, sir," Eland replied with a shout. "I will be a strong man, I promise," Eland added. Bill then turned around and continued walking. Eland stared at the sturdy back of his saviour who was walking away until he was no longer visible to his e

    "Of course, General. You may do everything," Eland replied. The great general smiled. "General Cleve, you know ... I might misinterpret your kindness. Do you not mind?" "Not at all, General. My life belongs to you," Eland said. William Mackenzie suddenly said, "Your life is your own. I did not ask for it." "General," Eland said, startled. "Oh, let's put it this way. I ask only one thing of you," Bill said. Eland immediately got ready to receive orders. "Make peace with my kingdom and become an ally of my kingdom. Can you do that?" Bill asked. Eland Cleve was speechless with disbelief. He was lost for words for a moment and only regained his speech. "Is that all, General?" "Yes." Eland didn't understand, "Are you sure this is all, General?" "Yes. I just need that," Bill said. Eland looked down. With his head slightly bowed, the young man said, "Yes, General. I will convey this to the king." Bill nodded happily, "Will your king listen to you?" "I will do my best, General,"

    At first Michelle Veren didn't understand what James Gardner was asking. However, when she saw the look on the general's face, she immediately knew he meant the time of the departure of the three people they were looking for.So, the Veren boutique owner replied, "About an hour ago, General Gardner."Hearing that answer, Reiner immediately went limp. But, it was inversely proportional to James who was even full of enthusiasm. This could be seen from James who even said, "Come on, Rei. Let's go after him."Reiner looked sadly at his best friend and replied, "It won't catch up, James. It's been too long."James did not even listen to Reiner's words and ordered some of his men, "Prepare the car, let's go after them!""James," Reiner called softly.James ignored the call and kept saying to his men who were still quietly waiting, "Find out through the CCTV which area they are currently in. They ... should be visible if they take the highway from behind this building."Reiner bit his own

    Unfortunately it was all too late for the young girl to realize. All the words of the girl named Alice Porter were clearly heard by Reiner Anderson and James Gardner.With a dark look on his face, James said, "Miss, you-""No, no. I just misspoke, I ... I don't know anything. You heard me wrong," Alice said, whose face paled even more. Especially when she saw the aura of James Gardner, the terrifying war general, she found it even harder to breathe.Reiner also could not help himself so he said in an exasperated tone, "Tell me everything you know or you ... will know how terrible it is when you face the two of us.""I don't care if you are a woman. I can still find a punishment that you deserve," Reiner continued coldly.Alice swallowed harshly. Of course the young girl was very confused. Moreover, no one was trying to help her at all. All the employees in the boutique looked so frightened that no one dared to open their mouths."Say it now! We don't have much time, Miss!" James gro

    James' question immediately made Reiner silent for a few moments. He stared at the boutique with a confused look on his face.Meanwhile, James didn't want to waste any more time so he wordlessly walked towards the boutique owned by Michelle Veren, a forty-year-old female designer who was quite famous in the country.Reiner didn't just stand by and do nothing, lamenting his inaccuracy. He followed James with a small trot right behind James without a word.As soon as James was faster than him to reach the door, he immediately saw the two boutique guards who opened the door for them."Can I help you?" one of the boutique guards asked James."I'm looking for Princess Rowena. Where is she now?" James asked back matter-of-factly as he darted his eyes all over the first floor of the boutique.Although there was a suspicion rising in James' mind, the young man put his anxiety ahead of his suspicion."You're looking for Princess Rowena? Who are you? You-""James Gardner. Royal War General Ans

    Reiner Anderson did not answer James' question. Instead, he had a facial expression that looked both hesitant and confused.Of course, that made James Gardner even more annoyed. "Come on, tell me quickly! What's so strange about Princess Rowena?" James urged, impatiently.Reiner swallowed and scratched his ears before answering, "Well, I'm not sure if this is strange to you. But ... I think it's very strange, James."James gritted his teeth in growing annoyance and impatience.Luckily, he didn't need to ask anymore as Reiner added, "So, according to reports she went outside the palace."Hearing Reiner's answer, James snorted rudely. "What's so strange about that? I know she often goes outside the palace."Reiner sighed softly, "Indeed. But, this time ... a few hours ago, she left without a bodyguard. And she ... left with their son, Prince Kharel."Instantly James glared in shock, "What? Are you ... sure?""Yes, James. She just-""How is that possible? King Xylan ... didn't forbid he

    Gary Davis did not answer Xylan's question. He just wore a pitiable expression. It instantly brought out the guilt in Xylan Wellington.Oh, no. What have I done? Did ... did I go too far in becoming suspicious of my own personal assistant? Xylan thought to himself as he stared at Gary's innocent face.The viceroy sighed softly. He went back to thinking hard. He tried to remember everything about Gary. He had never made a mistake, not once. He also never did anything suspicious all this time. Gosh, am I suspecting the wrong person? Xylan thought.However, he shook his head quickly as he realized something.But, wait a minute. It was James Gardner who suspected him. He couldn't have spoken carelessly. Otherwise, there was no way he could have been selected as the deputy war general. His instincts must be very strong that he has suspicions of Gary Davis, Xylan thought seriously.He then looked at Gary once more and finally nodded his head.He does look very innocent, but he could be h

    Ben didn't know how he should respond to his friend's words, but all he could do was go over to James and pat him gently on the back repeatedly in an attempt to calm him down."He's really not coming back, Ben.""No, he's not. It's just-""He wouldn't give that kind of message if he didn't mean what he said," James cut Ben off.Ben sighed softly, "James, what I meant was ... he probably doesn't want to be looked for anymore because he wants to go back to the palace himself."Ben's words made James, who had been so frantic, straighten his back. The war general then turned to Ben and responded, "What do you mean?"Ben wasn't sure what he was thinking but he said it anyway, "I think ... he just wants to go home alone."James paused, trying to digest his friend's words."Tell you what ... how about we just go back to the palace, who knows if Riley might actually be home," Ben explained.Ricky and Steven Drilon were silent as they listened to Ben's words.They also didn't have time to reac

    Ricky Drilon could only stare at the question.Oh, he often found himself in a confusing situation. But, he had never once felt depressed.Though he was also very often faced with a difficult choice. However, again, such things could be resolved well without any inner turmoil.However, one question asked by Riley Mackenzie put him in his most difficult phase. "Why are you doing nothing? Who are you going to obey? Me or General Gardner?" Riley repeated his question.Ricky swallowed harshly, getting more and more confused.His forehead was furrowed, clearly showing a great deal of indecision. He repeatedly smoothed his hair in just one minute. That made Riley smile strangely, "So, what? Who are you going to choose to obey?" Ricky bit his own teeth.How is this? What am I supposed to do? And why am I in this situation? Ricky thought.He looked indecisive, full of doubts. Riley himself looked very calm and relaxed at Ricky's confusion."Why aren't you answering me?" Riley asked with a

    Ricky didn't answer James' question immediately, instead he looked back at Steven, his brother. From the look in his eyes, it was clear that the young man was seeking Ricky's approval. Apparently, James Gardner noticed this habit and with an exasperated look on his face, he commented, "Come on, do you have to have a discussion before answering a simple question like the one I asked you earlier?" "Don't you have your own opinion?" James continued in a cold tone. Ricky and Steven's faces turned a perfect shade of red. Ben grimaced at James' assertiveness but he didn't make an interruption. Not wanting to make James even angrier, Ricky finally replied, "If it's an ordinary person, we can probably still go after him. However, if it's General Mackenzie, I ...." The young man did not dare to continue his words. From the look on his face he looked hesitant until James continued his words by saying, "You're not sure we can catch up with Riley?" Ricky stammered, "Absolutely, General Gar

    Benedict Arkitson instantly froze like a statue as if he dared not move his body at all. The thirty-four-year-old senior class one soldier was stunned without being able to issue any rebuttal to the junior soldier's explanation.He thought that he had no reason to doubt Lory Blackwell's words. Meanwhile, the strangely gloomy James Gardner looked the other way, as if reluctant to meet Lory Blackwell's eyes that were staring at him innocently. The young war general then said, "It's Riley. It must be him, it can't be wrong."Lory smiled with satisfaction and nodded with relief. The young man let out a long sigh after his statement was beyond doubt.However, he saw the sad look on James Gardner's face that the war general couldn't hide.He even heard James mutter softly, "It really is him. But ... he must be angry with me. If he wasn't angry, why would he leave?"That of course made Lory very surprised. James Gardner had always been known as a very rigid and cold person. He never imag
