Riley even smiled when he heard it."Oh, that's right. Having skills in two areas isn't bad," a soldier said as he had called himself an aerial expert.Alen nodded enthusiastically, "Oh, I'm right."Riley shook his head and shifted back a little to say, "You ... since when did you become a motivator?"Alen grinned and replied with a very quiet tone, "It's nothing like that. I just don't want our troops to decrease.""It's dangerous if the number of prospective soldiers is reduced," Alen added.Riley chuckled softly, his brain that had been a little full of his plans to get close to Rowena now relaxing a little.He then looked at the monitor again and heard some of the prospective soldiers retreating. Instantly Riley saw Greg's expression and at that moment he was sure there was a hint of disappointment on the stiff man's face.However, Greg didn't say anything about their withdrawal. Once the time was up, he simply said, "Well, 300 prospective soldiers chose to fight with me. So, from
Alen immediately looked around, trying to locate Riley. However, he still couldn't find his friend. "Did he leave? I don't see him."James let out a long sigh, "Damn! Didn't I just ask you that? He left without telling us."Alen quickly responded, "Oh, never mind. He probably had other things he wanted to do."James twisted his chin, "Does this have something to do with those two girls?""Who are those two girls?" Alen asked after removing his gloves."Princess Rowena and Mary Kesley. Who else are the two girls he's close to besides them?" James replied in an exasperated tone.Alen grimaced, "Oh, I thought there was another girl."James frowned, but Alen quickly said, "Let it go! Maybe he feels like he needs to get his love affairs sorted out before we go to war.""Oh, right. Maybe so," James said as he now sounded indifferent.He chose to wait for Riley in the park close to their dormitory with Alen. Meanwhile, Riley had just arrived at the princess' palace. The princess servants we
The princess immediately turned around and looked straight at the mirror. She then said, "He's my future husband. What will the people say if I refuse his arrival?"Celia immediately bowed and understood what she had to do, "Then I will ask the guards to escort him in, Your Highness.""Hm," Rowena replied briefly.Celia turned around and left, while Rowena again ordered the servants to re-dress her. About five minutes later, the girl went to meet Riley in her living room. The young man who was not sitting and still standing saluted her and it made her frown.She looked at Riley's handsome face and strangely enough, she immediately realized that he had something to say to her. "Servant, guard. Leave us alone!" Rowena ordered.Celia gasped when she heard that, so she quickly replied, "But, Your Highness. You can't just be alone with ... Mr. Wood."Rowena sighed, "This is our private conversation. I think you might also be embarrassed when you hear it."Hearing the princess's words, the
Riley certainly could not reply and that made Rowena chuckle."Calm down, I know that this status is only temporary, but ... hm, never mind. You'd better get back to your training," Rowena said and the girl pushed the stunned youth away.Actually, Riley still wanted to talk. But since Rowena had told him to leave, of course he had to leave.Riley rushed to the resting place for the prospective soldiers. In just a short time he had managed to find his two room mates who were lying on the grass with their eyes closed as if they were exhausted after the intense training they had done.As soon as Riley sat down next to James, the young man immediately opened his eyes and got up. His eyes looked questioningly at Riley, "So, how was it?""How what?" Alen asked with his eyes still closed, not knowing that Riley was already there.James clucked his tongue, "I'm not asking you."The short-haired boy opened his eyes instantly, tilted his head and smiled widely when he saw Riley sitting facing Ja
With great enthusiasm Rowena added, "You can ask him for advice. I'm sure he'll be able to help us."The girl's face even looked radiant, but Riley shook her head."Why? You don't want to?" Rowena asked with a confused expression.Riley sighed, "My father ... he's been in that field, risked his life and has done a lot for this kingdom. And right now he's living his life like an ordinary person."He then turned to the princess and continued, "I don't want to see him thinking hard about the war anymore. I want my father to just relax into his current life with my mother without thinking about things like this anymore, Your Highness."Rowena was silent.The girl was instantly reminded of her meeting with William Mackenzie some time ago. If Riley wanted his father not to worry about the kingdom, his father, the most powerful general ever, did the same.The god of war also did not want his son to know of his arrival. He also wanted his son to not worry about anything and focus on his goal.
Alen shook his head and then replied, "It's possible that the design of this shirt is old, only the name is designed suddenly."James immediately scowled. "Damn you, Smith, why do you always enjoy destroying people's imaginations?"Alen chuckled, "Oh, that's not it. I just knew what you were going to say so I wanted to make you realize and remember the reality first."James did not reply again because he was still annoyed, while Riley just appeared with a clean face, "What's wrong?""Oh, you're so slow! Look at your uniform!" James said.Riley's reaction was more or less the same as Alen or James. However, the young man did not even hide his smile."Hey, are you so impressed with this outfit that you're smiling like that, Wood?" James said with a lopsided smile.Riley didn't take offense and instead said, "This is actually a battle suit for future soldiers like us. I wonder what the soldiers wear nowadays."Alen nodded and quickly took all the uniforms. Riley and James raised their ey
Not wanting to make James Gardner suspicious of him, Riley quickly replied, "Of course not. How could I be afraid of something like that?"James squinted, looked questioningly at his friend and then grinned as if he had caught his prey. "But, what I saw wasn't like that. You're ... scared. Come on, be honest with me, you're afraid of the camera, right?" James said with a lopsided smile still gracing his lips."It's obvious, Wood. Your expression says it all." James continued cheerfully.Riley immediately corrected his facial expression and replied in an exasperated tone, "Nonsense. My facial expression is flatter.""So?" James said while raising an eyebrow."I'm not scared, James. I just don't like it. Satisfied?" Riley replied, gritting his teeth in annoyance.James giggled, ignoring his annoyed friend. Unwilling to hear that annoying laughter, Riley chose to walk faster and left James who was forced to run after him.Oh my! Riley had almost forgotten what he was supposed to be thin
James Gardner let out another long sigh, "Oh, this is what happens when you choose to make out with the king's daughter over eating dinner on time."Riley really wanted to sew James' mouth shut for saying words that he thought were unimportant before getting to the point."Come on, don't play games, James!" Riley said as he bit his teeth.James grinned, "Fool, it's because there was a big war last night. The remaining soldiers were sent to the Fermoza Kingdom."Hearing that, of course Riley was very surprised, "What do you mean? Does that mean there are really only a few soldiers in this kingdom in total?""Yes, it does," James replied.Riley instantly fell silent, starting to panic. "What did they do? How could they do something like that? What if we get attacked? I mean, if the kingdom is abandoned by-""Calm down, Wood! There are still about twenty-five percent of the soldiers in the palace. That's still enough to protect this kingdom and the members of the royal family. So ... all
