"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,"

    Keannu instantly threw an astonished look with both thick eyebrows drawn together. Jody Gardner immediately realised the small mistake he had made and hurriedly corrected, "Uh, I mean. It feels impossible. I don't believe in the kingdom. They must have done something." The look on the king's face returned to normal. "We don't know for sure yet, General." "But, Your Majesty. The Mondega Kingdom clearly seems to be pulling this trick to try and lure us out," Jody said, still trying to keep his king's mind off the matter. "They wouldn't dare face ... our War Advisor." Keannu almost said the word "General" again. However, he quickly controlled his usually sharp tongue. "You seem so confident in Bill Stewart's abilities. But, I believe the Mondega Kingdom is using Bill Stewart. Prisoner of war. That's for sure," Jody said. Keannu shook his head in disbelief, "He won't be easy to defeat, General Gardner." "What if the kingdom attacks us suddenly?" Jody said. "As you said, although

    Eland Cleve replied casually, "I just spoke to him and he said that you are one of the people who know his true face." Andrew Reece was stunned, his eyes widened to perfection. The glass he was carrying almost slipped out of his hand if he wasn't careful. He immediately glanced to his right and left, scrutinising warily, fearing that someone might be listening in on their conversation. He took a deep gulp of saliva, calmed himself down and tried to return to normal behaviour. Eland Cleve was watching closely and could easily tell that Andrew Reece was both surprised and nervous. "He told you, General?" Andrew asked at last. He even had trouble closing his mouth again and began to think more broadly. He now understood the reason why Eland Cleve seemed to get along so well with the major general. That man apparently already knew the general. But how could that be? Had William Mackenzie revealed his own identity in front of this man who was their enemy before finally choosing to m

    Oh, now Eland understood it immediately. Jody Gardner clearly disliked his saviour god. That much was very clear when he saw the look of dislike in Jody Gardner's eyes when they discussed about Bill Jody Gardner looked like he did not try to hide it at all, he just show it without any doubts. "He's great. And, that greatness sometimes doesn't depend on whether or not one has been in the field for a long time. I'm sure you would agree with that, General Gardner," Eland said, adding a friendly smile to the end of his sentence. Jody Gardner no longer bothered about it afterwards and chose to keep his emotions in check. He went home with a mind filled with extreme annoyance because again he had lost face. This time, unmitigatedly, his name was not mentioned in the Ans De Lou Kingdom when they returned. Only Bill was honoured by everyone, including the king, so he didn't participate in the big celebration at the palace. However, when the celebration had only been going on for two hou

    "Cassie, listen. You ... can tell me anything!" Bill said, trying to get his wife to reveal what she was going through. At first, Cassandra looked very reluctant and seemed uncomfortable. However, after Bill patiently waited for her and tried to calm her down, Cassandra finally began to slowly open up to her husband. "I ... got fired, Bill. Imagine that! You know how much I love that job," Cassandra sobbed again. "What was the reason?" Bill's brow furrowed, he knew Cassandra was such a disciplined worker, it was impossible for his wife to make a mistake. "I don't want to discuss. It's useless," Cassandra said, looking so lazy. Bill let out a long sigh. He knew very well how Cassandra Wood loved her work and was always proud of it endlessly. Losing something she loved so much must have been very hard for Cassandra. "I'm unemployed now, Bill." "That's no problem," Bill replied calmly. "How can you be so calm, Bill? How can we afford this much rent? You-" "Wait a minute, why are

    "Just say what you have to say!" Cassandra said, already impatient. Bill took his wife's hand and said, "Before I met you, I was a soldier, Cassie. I worked in the palace, but ...." "But what?" Cassandra asked with bated breath. "I resigned over 3 years ago and on my way home I was attacked until I almost died," Bill said. Cassandra stared in shock, "Attacked how, Bill? Who attacked you?" The beautiful woman's lips seemed to tremble as she said it and it made Bill become more careful. "I don't know, Cassie. That's when I was rescued by Grandma Minerva and ended up marrying you," Bill explained. Cassandra was still a little confused, "How did she save you?" Bill couldn't possibly say he was dumped in the suburbs because that would complicate things even more. So, he chose to say, "Grandma found me dying on the road. She healed me." Cassandra was silent for a moment, "So, you're really marrying me because of that? As a favour to Grandma?" Bill nodded without hesitation. Cassa

    Cassandra became even more suspicious of her husband but she refrained from asking. The beautiful woman even handed her husband a glass of water. "Thank you, Cassie!" Bill said quickly. He hurriedly downed the water and when he put the glass on the table, he still saw his wife staring at him unblinkingly. "What are you thinking about?" Bill asked after wiping his mouth with a tissue. Cassandra made a gesture as if she wasn't thinking anything nor did she force her husband to speak. Bill was even more confused and thought that maybe his wife had found out that he had more than just one company. However, when he saw her questioning gaze, he quickly dismissed the thought from his mind. "I ... haven't thought about building a company but if you want to, I can build one for you," Bill said and he chose the safest way. Cassandra was wide-eyed when she heard her husband's words, "You ... are you that rich to easily build a company?" Bill quickly shook his head, "No, Cassie. It's jus

    Bill was still trying to be patient, "Oh, the urn. If you didn't do it on purpose, of course it doesn't matter, but if you did it on purpose, of course I'll sue for compensation." Hearing Bill's answer which was said so calmly also made Shirley annoyed, "You want to sue your own sister-in-law?" "Shirley!" Cassandra said and she was completely ignored by her biological sister. Bill shrugged, "I don't care if it's my sister-in-law or not but if someone tries to interfere with mine then I won't stay silent." Shirley only exhaled harshly and then she saw her brother as well as her grandfather and also her husband who looked so enthusiastic about entering the house headed there. Cassandra quickly greeted her family, "Grandpa, George, Peter. Welcome to our house." Christopher Wood frowned at that sentence, "Your home? Isn't it a bit much when you call a rental property your own?" Cassandra immediately glanced at her husband who still looked so relaxed even though she heard her own gra

    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.

    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
