"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?"

    "Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I ... will stop talking and listen to you," Gary Davis said, who after saying that immediately closed his mouth tightly. The young man also bowed his head as if afraid that he would anger the viceroy.Xylan sighed softly at the compliance of his personal assistant and then responded, "Gary, I ... have broken my promise. I can't make you occupy an important position in this palace."He observed Gary's facial expression which was unfortunately invisible to him as his head was bowed rather deeply.But, looking at Gary who didn't move an inch Xylan was sure Gary was listening to everything he said carefully."But ... that doesn't mean I can't do it forever," Xylan continued.Xylan's words managed to make Gary move his head slightly but still remained in a downcast position.Xylan smiled faintly and added, "Yes, Gary. You didn't hear wrong. I only delayed your appointment. This means that my decision has not changed."Slowly Gary raised his head until Xyla

    The 23-year-old loosened the collar of his shirt and then sat down comfortably. His face was bright with a smile. In fact, one of the other passengers sitting in the same compartment with him felt that the young man carrying a backpack with the emblem of the Ans De Lou Kingdom was a very cheerful young man."Excuse me, where are you getting off?" Gary asked to make small talk with his compartment mate.The man who looked about the same age as him replied, "Vues Hill."Gary nodded, "Oh, you mean getting off before me.""Where do you get off?" the man asked back. "Uh, I'll get off at the last station, Wenderstein," Gary replied.The man frowned, "Wenderstein? You're from an area ... that once belonged to the Sealand Kingdom apparently."Gary smiled kindly and nodded, "You seem to know my area."The man immediately nodded, "Of course. I've been there a few times."Gary was reluctant to respond, but the young man sitting in front of him still seemed interested in the topic and asked agai

    Tired of hearing Nick Collins' questions, the chatty guy, Gary Davis finally replied, "Nothing. I just want to sleep. Do you mind if I close my eyes now, buddy?"Nick Collins winked, looking visibly disappointed.But, Gary didn't care and added, "I'm so tired. Today is King Xylan's coronation. I have so many things to do."Gary sighed tiredly and made a pitiable facial expression that Nick felt sorry for.He immediately responded, "Oh, I'm so sorry. It's because of me that you can't rest. Well, please take your time, Gary."Gary Davis smiled gratefully and closed his eyes."Have a good rest, buddy!" Nick said when he saw that Gary's eyes were closed.Not forgetting to add, "We can chat later. Okay?"No, there's no need, Gary thought while still closing his eyes.He certainly didn't bother replying to Nick and kept pretending to sleep. He actually couldn't sleep. Even on long journeys, Nick could never sleep sitting up. Basically, he had such a habit of having trouble sleeping that he

  • The Strongest God of War   60. Riley's Purpose

    Being treated like a child by Rowena, of course Xylan would not accept it. He was a king. He didn't want his prestige to fall before everyone just because he was still treated like a child by his older sister.He quickly looked around to see if anyone had seen his sister touching the hair on the back of his head. However, he breathed a sigh of relief when no one saw him.Uh, I've become a king. No one will dare to look at me if I don't give them permission, Xylan said to himself. The young man shook his head, feeling like he was worrying too much about something that didn't really matter."No, no. It's not that I don't trust you, Rowena. The thing is ... it's ...."Oh, Xylan was at a loss for words. He had trouble stringing words together, afraid that his words might offend his sister.However, he noticed Rowena's silence, as if she was waiting for him to say more so he said, "Look, sis. Riley is married to you and you have a child. How could Riley have disappeared on purpose?"Rowen

    With limp shoulders Rowena nodded slowly, agreeing to Xylan's words which were true according to her.Xylan was dumbfounded, disbelieving. There really was such a person? War general is not an arbitrary position. How could anyone willingly give such an important position to someone else? It doesn't make sense, Xylan thought with his forehead folded.Rowena watched her younger brother's reaction and then she too sighed softly. The young woman said, "Yes, I know people won't easily believe that there's someone like Riley. However ... everyone who knows Riley very well would think that the things Riley does are no big deal for him." "He's not a person who's crazy about important positions and he wouldn't hesitate to sacrifice himself, including his position and even his life for others," Rowena added, reinforcing the argument she believed to be true.Xylan still looked unconvinced and instead completely doubted his sister's thoughts. Hm, she could have temporarily let James Gardner ta

    Rowena's blunt statement was right on target. Xylan Wellington was rendered helpless. The young king of the Ans De Lou Kingdom was not even able to reply even a few words.Meanwhile, Rowena, who felt that her brother was beginning to understand her explanation, finally breathed a sigh of relief.Rowena said softly, "I don't think I'm better than you in terms of government. Of course you're much smarter than me. You're the king. However, I know how to judge people. And I don't think ... you should just trust Gary Davis until you're absolutely sure and find out a lot about him."Xylan remained silent.The young man was not unwilling to reply to his older sister's words. He just didn't know how to do it.At that moment he just felt very careless. Hearing his sister's words, he was really very embarrassed."Well, I have to go see Kharel. I've left him alone too much," Rowena finally said after looking at the large clock above the wall.The young woman hurriedly walked away without another

    Not knowing how to answer, he thought for a while."I-I dare not give my opinion, Your Majesty," Ronald said in the end.Suddenly, Xylan was dissatisfied. The young man exhaled harshly, seemingly displeased with Ronald's answer. Xylan coldly said, "Your king is asking you a question and you refuse to answer?""You want to defy me, Ronald?" Xylan continued.Ronald hurriedly knelt before Xylan with his head bowed deeply. He swallowed hard, realizing that the viceroy was angry with him. He immediately regretted having made the foolish mistake of not answering the king's question.The young squire stammered, "I beg your forgiveness, Your Majesty."Xylan remained silent, reluctant to reply to Ronald as his temper was rising."Your Majesty, I didn't mean to upset you. I-""Then answer!" Xylan commanded through gritted teeth.Ronald caught his breath and then said quietly, "I think he's good, Your Majesty."Xylan raised an eyebrow, looking at Ronald who was still kneeling."So what?

    Ronald was a little surprised by the king's sudden words. Although it was very natural for Xylan Wellington, the new young king of his country to give an order to anyone, including him.Xylan had indeed given him orders, but only as ordinary orders when he was still a crown prince.And that time the situation seemed different. Because, that day was the first day Xylan gave him an order after Xylan assumed the title of king. So, it was obvious that the serious tone of the order made Ronald a little nervous. Even though he didn't know the king's orders yet, he still replied, "Yes, Your Majesty. I am ready to accept your orders."Xylan said again, "Then prepare yourself because you will be going outside the palace."Of course the order shocked Ronald even more, "What's going on, Your Majesty? Have I made a mistake that you are angry with me? Then, then ... you want to throw me out of the palace."Ronald's body began to tremble slightly. The young man was very frightened if what he was th

  • 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

    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
