"You're the one," Jody argued.

"We'll talk later. I have to report to King Keannu," Dorothy retorted.

Without wanting to argue anymore, Jody let her lover go and he could only vent his frustration through physical exercise in the building.

Meanwhile, in the Silver Building, Bill stood looking through his old belongings accompanied by his ever faithful Andrew Reece.

"You don't have to keep me company like this, Reece," Bill said.

"It's my duty to serve you, General."

"No, it isn't. I'm only a War Advisor now, Reece. You don't have to serve me," Bill said.

However, Andrew Reece remained adamant. "No, General. I swore to serve you to the death, so I will."

Bill sighed wearily and let Andrew follow him.

"General, it's unacceptable to me that you have to bow before that jerk Jody Gardner."

"Shh, watch your language!" Bill admonished.

Andrew said, "But he is a jerk, General. He kidnapped you, held you captive and-"

"I know. You're right about that, but you have to remember, he's

  • The Strongest God of War   100. Confidants

    Ah, James was really having his patience tested. He did not expect that his current king was not only very young, but also had a childlike nature.However, he didn't mind at all and then smiled and explained, "Because even I don't know how to explain it to you, Your Majesty."Xylan rolled his eyes, "You can't explain it or ... you don't want to, General Gardner?"James smiled wryly in response to Xylan's words.It was clear enough to Xylan that he immediately responded, "Oh, well. As you wish.""For now I'm letting you go, General Gardner. But ... remember, you owe me an explanation. You must tell me once you know how. Do you ... understand?" Xylan continued.James nodded his head at the viceroy. He smiled again and replied, "Of course, Your Majesty. I will definitely tell you everything."After saying that, James glanced at Ronald who was frowning.Apparently he was actually listening to my conversation with the king. Hm, alright. Let's see, what will you guys do? James thought.Rona

  • The Strongest God of War   99. Not You!

    As the young man was grumbling in annoyance, he suddenly heard someone's footsteps from behind him.The man wearing the uniform of the king's main soldier gave him a glance and said in a low tone of voice, "They do suspect you, Your Majesty. But ... trust me they won't find anything."Gary Davis, the young man who still did not let go of the direction of his gaze on Xylan Wellington and James Gardner sighed softly and immediately replied without turning his head, "Are you sure?""Of course, Your Majesty. I assure you, your identity remains safe," the man replied in a tone of voice that was again still very quiet.Gary let out a long sigh, "Alright, I trust you. Carry on with your work, Ron!""Yes, Your Honor," Ronald replied. "Please don't worry about anything because I ... will definitely do whatever it takes to protect you," Ronald added.Gary nodded and replied briefly, "Hm. Yes."Ronald said no more and immediately hurriedly walked in the opposite direction to Gary, leaving Gary

  • The Strongest God of War   98. Insolent!

    Jim Chesnut very reluctantly replied, "Sorry, guys. I ... couldn't tell you.""I'm sorry!" Jim repeated as he stared apologetically and asked for understanding from his best friends.Doris Tan bit his lower lip and immediately glanced at his two best friends. The man who was a year older than Jim seemed to have a strong feeling that after Jim expressed his objection to telling them, a problem would soon arise. He wanted to prevent any possible division, but he doubted he could do so.He could see the resentment in the eyes of his two best friends.Meanwhile, Jim, who had high hopes that his friends would understand, had to accept great disappointment when he saw Dylan and Ludor staring at him with dislike."Oh, so you want to keep it a secret?" Dylan asked sarcastically.Ludor clucked his tongue, looking exasperated, "You're so ... arrogant! Feeling superior because you were given an important task? Is that so?"Jim quickly shook his head, "It … it's not like that! I'm just-""Nonse

  • The Strongest God of War   97. An Important Task

    "Yes, Mr. Chesnut," Camelia replied, almost gnashing her teeth in annoyance."Y-you're sure? Is it really my name? Did the king say my name?" Jim asked as he pointed at himself with his right index finger.Uh, it looks like Camelia will have to practice her patience even more. Because, the main soldiers standing nearby were apparently not as smart as they should be.Perhaps, they were only physically strong. But, when it comes to thinking, it seems to be very, very slow, Camelia thought with a frown. "Yes, Mr. Chesnut. You have been asked to appear before the king," Camelia replied.Jim was stunned. "Is that for real? This feels like ...."Before Camelia Hart could answer Jim Chesnut's question, Ludor Flee, who couldn't contain his curiosity, asked, "What orders, Miss?""Special orders? How is that possible?" Dylan Chick also wanted to know.Camelia, who didn't want to be in that area for long, immediately replied, "Of course it's out of my control. I mean ... what the order was onl

  • The Strongest God of War   96. Orders from the King

    The young maid whose full name was Camelia Hart immediately lowered her head and replied timidly, "No, Your Majesty.""Yes, Your Majesty. I ... go first," Camelia said.The young girl turned to her companions, giving a code which was an invitation to leave the king's residence.The servants nodded and were about to follow Camelia. However, before they could take a step they heard Xylan's voice saying, "You stay here."They immediately turned around and with confused expressions stood silently. Meanwhile, the astonished Camelia Hart opened her mouth, "Your Majesty, I-""The one I ordered to meet Jim Chesnut was you, Camelia. As for them ... well, I still need them here," Xylan explained.Xylan's words seemed odd because he usually didn't want to be served without Camelia, but as if to reassure that there was nothing strange there Xylan hurriedly said, "I have something I want to do and I think they can help me. You ... just do the job f

  • The Strongest God of War   95. So What?

    Xylan Wellington did not immediately answer Ronald Wings' question. The viceroy looked thoughtful with furrowed brows."I ... can't confirm that yet," Xylan said, sounding hesitant.Ronald bit his lower lip. Uh, his words were actually the same as accusing one of the servants of betraying the king. Because, only the servant who was around at the time of his conversation with the king. However, all of the king's servants who were close to them at that time were women. Ronald felt that he had spoken wrongly.But, just as he was about to open his mouth to correct his words, Xylan said, "I will do something to check."Ronald widened his eyes, looking shocked. "Your Majesty, I beg your forgiveness. What I said earlier-""What you said could have happened. Well, I think I have to consider many things. So, it's not a big deal if I have to check on the maids," Xylan cut off Ronald's words.The twenty-seven-year-old soldier blinked, looking surprised that Xylan could read what he was thinkin

  • The Strongest God of War   94. Guesses

    James shook his head, "I can't say right now."Reiner immediately let out a disappointed sigh. "You are ... making us curious.""Right, why can't you say it now?" Ben asked with a curious expression."Can't you give us just a little ... bright spot?" Shin tried to persuade hopefully.James chuckled softly, "Sorry, I really can't tell you guys right now, but ... I'm sure it won't be long before we know everything."Diego gave him an unsure look, "Will it be us or will it be you?"James flashed a bright smile, "Of course we all will.""I don't believe it," Alen said quickly.The war general blinked repeatedly and looked at each of his good friends with a puzzled look.He then pointed at himself with his right index finger and said, "You think I'm lying? Since when did I lie or break my promise?"Ben frowned and looked thoughtful. He looked up as if he was considering something.An exasperated James said, "Damn it! Do you have to think just to answer a simple question?"Diego held back a

  • The Strongest God of War   93. Bad Situation

    Ben immediately grimaced. Meanwhile, Alen and Shin laughed crisply together. Then, Diego pretended to look up.However, Reiner boldly replied, "It's not about feeling sorry for you. I ... just think Riley is too much."James clucked his tongue and took the empty seat next to Diego who immediately turned to him with the same look."That's his right," James replied, sounding casual."Rights? What right do you mean, the right to put his best friend in trouble?" Reiner replied cluelessly.James shrugged, "I've been causing him trouble for the past few years as well."Shin widened his eyes, "Hey, what are you talking about? What trouble? He-""I left this palace and let Riley handle all the problems in this kingdom by herself. I mean ... I know you guys have always been there for him and so many great warriors have helped him, but ... yeah it's still hard for him," James explained after cutting off Shin's words that he hadn't finished yet.

  • The Strongest God of War   92. How Long Do You Want to Wait?

    Reiner frowned when he saw James' expression which he found very strange. Moreover, he also saw how James' lips suddenly formed a smile."What's wrong with you?" Reiner finally chose to ask.James once again smiled at Reiner, making Reiner wink.Reiner also got goosebumps instantly. "What's wrong with you? Don't tell me you're going crazy, James!"A sigh was immediately heard from James. He snorted in exasperation, "Damn it! I still have hopes of meeting Riley, even if it's not now. Why should I go crazy?"Hearing that, Reiner let out a sigh of relief. Because, James' nagging was one of the ways that showed that his good friend was really just fine. "Then, why are you being like that? Smiling horribly. Very strange, just so you know! Not like your usual self," Reiner explained, who still looked a bit horrified.James grinned again, revealing his row of clean teeth. He then said, "Oh, it's about Gary Davis. You ... just made me realize something, Rei.""Realized? About what?" Reiner a
