"General Mackenzie would never kill an unprepared enemy, sir," Giorgino's men said. Giorgino sighed, "There are many people like that. I don't think anyone can really point to this until there is clear evidence." The conversation between Giorgino and the other officials and men ended there. Meanwhile, now William Mackenzie, the person they were talking about was sitting in the airplane facing Jody Gardner who had yet to open his mouth. Bill did not open the conversation or even look at Jody. It left both men looking confused. Of course, that didn't apply to Andrew Reece and Steven. Steven was still looking sarcastically at Andrew, while Andrew looked relaxed and calm. "You must have the upper hand because your war general managed to defeat two kingdoms," Steven said. Andrew smiled casually, "Before General Stewart defeated those two kingdoms, I was already on top." "Wow, you've only won twice and you're so arrogant. General Gardner has won dozens of times," Steven retorted. "
Keannu looked surprised and confused at Bill. The king replied, "Why do you ask like that, General Stewart? It's of course to celebrate your victory. You have defeated two kingdoms at once. Yoi deserve to be welcomed." Monica Wilhem who was standing beside her husband immediately realized that Keannu had committed an upset. She could see it in William Mackenzie's unflattering gaze. Instead of feeling happy about the celebration, Bill's face showed dislike and there was even a look of sadness on it. "Is this not enough welcome for your victory, General?" Keannu asked. Jody Gardner who was standing not far from Bill snorted. He thought to himself, of course that's what he was thinking. What else could it be? Steven who was accompanying him said quietly so that no one could hear, "I never expected that, General. I thought General Stewart had a humble nature but apparently he likes compliments. Well, that's very surprising." "That's right. He looks so dynamic from the outside but h
"Yes. Bill has upset you," Monica said casually. Keannu replied, "You're dead wrong. He hasn't just upset me, he's angered me." Monica, who seemed to have guessed what her husband might do, immediately stepped back. Sure enough, Keannu immediately grabbed the various trinkets that were going to be given to William Mackenzie for his victory and threw them all over the place. Not only that, but he also damaged so many other items that the area used to welcome their War General became chaotic and dirty. His anger was so uncontrollable at the moment that Monica did not dare to approach. She was still keeping a safe distance of about five meters so as not to be hit by her husband's rage. However, she certainly couldn't leave her husband in such a chaotic state so she still stayed there. Even though Keannu was still raging now, Monica was no longer afraid. This was because she was used to the man's strange behavior whenever he was angry. After he was satisfied messing up the place,
Keannu once again leered at his wife and instead smiled and kissed her briefly on the cheek and then said, "Do you now mind me bringing women into my palace?" Hearing Keannu's words, Monica Wilhelm almost lost her mind, "You ... wouldn't do such a shameful thing, Kean, would you?" "Who knows?" Keannu replied with a mysterious look in his eyes. Not wanting to get any crazier, Monica chose to say, "You ... don't deserve to be called human if you get-" "Just wait, my Queen! Just wait for a moment!" Keannu retorted. Monica, who could no longer contain herself because of the anger that overcame her, stomped her foot hard and left the welcoming area, leaving Keannu alone. When she reached her palace, Monica ordered, "Bring me some cold water, Magdalena." The trusted maid quickly fetched and handed Monica a glass of cold water which she quickly drank with her hands shaking violently. Magdalena, who had not been allowed to accompany her queen while talking to the king, immediately bega
William Mackenzie paused for a moment, then without thinking he immediately took out his cell phone and contacted the bodyguard he had assigned to protect his wife. Andrew Reece, who didn't understand what the major general was doing, remained silent and waited. "James. Is there a problem in the house?" Bill asked quickly. "Nothing, sir." Bill breathed a sigh of relief, "So, where's my wife?" "Madame has just fallen asleep, sir. Do I need to ask Mary to wake her up?" James asked. "No need, tomorrow morning I'll call her cell phone directly," Bill declined. "Yes, sir." Bill said again, "Tighten the guard throughout the house. If anything happens, call me immediately." "Yes, sir. Yes, I'll do it." After disconnecting the call, Bill turned to Andrew Reece whose face was slightly flushed. "Did you hear that, Reece?" "Yes, General." The young man replied in a very low tone of voice. Bill said, "King Keannu may not be a great king but that doesn't mean he would do such a low and
"Your Majesty," Bill called with a slightly trembling voice but his eyes staring straight ahead without the slightest wavering. No one knew at this moment whether the war general was angry or just surprised or shocked. However, what was certain was that an uneasy expression could be seen on the man's face. Keannu Wellington stood up from his throne, "General Stewart, this is just a surprise for you." "A surprise? What do you mean, Your Majesty?" Bill replied. "You've just won two battles. Of course you need to be rewarded," Keannu said. Everyone began to whisper. "A gift? Does she mean a gift for General Stewart?" "But it seems General Stewart knows her." Steven stood nervously behind his master and was obviously afraid that something might happen. Bill stepped closer and said, "A gift? What do you mean by gift?" "General Stewart, you must have missed your wife here very much. You must be very happy to see her again." Bill remained silent, waiting for Keannu Wellington to co
"He reversed King Keannu's attack, General," Steven said as he swallowed nervously. Jody Gardner couldn't even comprehend what Bill had said. The man stared at the kneeling freak in confusion. Bill said again. "Your Honor, please punish me for making you act like this." Hearing Bill's words, Monica Wilhelm blinked and would have laughed again if her husband had not suddenly stood up. "General Stewart, I don't think we need to prolong this matter," Keannu said, who no longer knew how to reply to Bill's actions that he never thought of. "Your Majesty, but I am guilty. I deserve to be punished." Keannu said in exasperation, "What's wrong with you, you've been asking to be punished?" Bill was silent. Keannu, not wanting to lose his authority, said, "It's not your fault. Never mind, there's no need to discuss it anymore." "Does this mean you forgive me, Your Honor?" Bill asked again. Keannu turned his head in annoyance, "You ... how can you be forgiven when you're innocent?" Every
Bill replied, "You're ... just thinking too much." Cassandra wanted to ask again but Bill said, "Take a rest. I have to go to the practice building. I'll be back in the afternoon." Cassandra nodded and let her husband go. At the training hall, Bill found a number of bodyguards who were his men who had fought alongside him at that time. Andrew Reece said, "Are you about to start training, General?" "Yes," Bill replied. All the soldiers immediately stood at attention, looking refreshed and ready for the day's training. "Are you ready to train?" Bill asked. "Yes, General," all his men replied. Bill nodded, "Your enthusiasm makes me proud. But, this time I'm not going to ask you to train physically, but strategically." Some people looked a bit confused. One of them raised his hand, "Why not physical training, General?" Bill flashed a faint smile, "I know you're incredibly strong. But, you still need to take care of your physique. Therefore, in a few days you will be practicing

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
