The Strongest God of War 49. James' Determination
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 Ja

"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.

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 was

"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.Th

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 mans

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? Wh

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 wife

"General Gardner, you've always been able to read what's inside my brain," Xylan replied quietly.The corners of James' lips lifted slightly to form a faint smile."Say it, Your Majesty! I am at your disposal," James said casually.Xylan nodded his head, "It's about you.""About me?" James repeated with a surprised expression.The young man had not expected the king's answer to be about him. He thought Xylan meant his concern for the government. In a confused tone he asked, "Does anything I do bother you, Your Majesty?" Xylan shook his head emphatically, "No. You've helped me more than anything. You've actually helped me more than I expected."That certainly made James even more clueless, "So what do you think of me?""It's about our agreement before I was appointed," Xylan replied.James' broad forehead wrinkled, but he quickly realized what Xylan was referring to.As he had expected, Xylan was actually saying, "So, when are you going to start looking for my brother-in-law again?"J

The Strongest God of War 90. James' Accusation
Hearing the new war general's question, Xylan Wellington laughed awkwardly.It was a laugh that didn't really come off, in fact, it sounded so strange that it made anyone who heard the viceroy's laughter confused.Reiner also looked at Xylan with a strange gaze while James did not even blink. The look in his eyes showed a demand.A demand for an explanation from Xylan regarding what he had just said.When he saw that urgent questioning look, Xylan finally stopped laughing. He cleared his throat softly before saying, "Hm ... I know from the main soldier.""The main soldier?" James repeated as he frowned.Xylan gulped and smiled clumsily, "The king's court soldiers, General Gardner."Oh, that wasn't really what James meant. He knew without even asking that the main soldiers were the palace soldiers specifically assigned to escort and guard him.There were usually five of them and one of them was required to stay by his side
The Strongest God of War 89. He Already Knows?
James Gardner remained silent, giving no clear answer to Reiner's question.An immediate anxiety struck the ground war commander. Not wanting to be ignored by James, Reiner asked again, "James, tell me. Are you going to stay in the palace? You're not going to leave, right?"He looked anxiously at James who was staring out the car window. However, after he waited patiently enough he finally heard James answer, "I don't know."Reiner's heart was like being hit by a rock instantly."So ... are you leaving?" the man asked in a tone that sounded disappointed."It depends."Reiner, who was still staring at James, raised an eyebrow, looking confused, "Depends on what?"James sighed softly, "It depends on King Xylan's answer."Reiner was getting more and more confused. However, he did not have time to ask further as the car they were in had already entered the main gate of the Ans De Lou Royal palace. Even so, Reiner still did not want to give up so easily so he continued to stick to James e
The Strongest God of War 88. It Won't Catch up, James!
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
The Strongest God of War 87. Princess Rowena's Plan
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
The Strongest God of War 86. Veren Boutique
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
The Strongest God of War 85. Other Oddities
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
The Strongest God of War 83. The Last Quest
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
The Strongest God of War 82. A Difficult Choice
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
