"Yes, that's right. My personal assistant who ... is currently outside the door of my father's residence," Xylan replied, not seeming to find anything strange about his answer.

James was still so shocked that he was left speechless, at a loss for what to say in response to Xylan's explanation.

"Why, General Gardner?" Xylan asked as he looked at James who was not speaking.

James moistened his lower lip, still thinking of the right words.

However, Xylan couldn't wait for him so he spoke again, "General Gardner, I know what you're thinking."

James blinked his eyes, looking stunned.

Xylan let out a long breath, "This must be the status of Gary Davis who is my personal assistant, right?"

James' eyes widened slightly until he then looked at the crown prince with an astonished look.

That's what I mean, why would you even think of making a personal assistant an advisor to the king? Have you ... lost your mind, Your Royal Highness? James thought to himself.

    Kharel was about to answer Elliot's question, but his best friend spoke first, "Kharel, have you forgotten my father is James Gardner and ... my grandfather is Jody Gardner?"Kharel's right eyebrow rose slightly. Elliot smiled crookedly, "I inherited two different traits from them. So, you ... don't need to worry. No one can fool Jody Gardner's grandson."Actually, Kharel wasn't surprised that Elliot was proud of his origins. He knew that Elliot's father was indeed a great war general. No one would dare doubt the abilities of the man who was his father's best friend.However, this was the first time he had mentioned Jody Gardner, a soldier who had been labeled a traitor because of his many actions that had harmed the Kingdom of Ans De Lou in the past."My grandfather did make many big mistakes, but ... I don't think anyone can deny that he was also quite clever ... cunning, right?"Elliot’s ears turned red, but he continued with a slightly embarrassed expression, “Ah, I mean … I inhe

    Some participants looked very surprised by the names that came out for the group of eight. Even Elliot Gardner, who had joined Knox Mest, his friend in group six, gave him a surprised look. However, Kharel Mackenzie didn't think there was anything strange about it because the selection was done fairly, so he hurried to the right without hesitation. Richard De Kruk immediately followed him and stood beside his friend. "Did you think we would be in the same group?" Richard suddenly asked Kharel without turning his head."Never. It was all done randomly, anyone could be my groupmate," Kharel replied.Richard chuckled when he heard Kharel's words.And that laugh immediately made Kharel turn to him with a questioning look. Richard also immediately turned to Kharel and said, "It means you missed something."Kharel furrowed his brow and immediately asked, "What do you mean?"Richard didn't hesitate and began to explain, "Look at those colorful balls!"Kharel immediately obeyed Richard's

  • The Strongest God of War   82. How Is That Possible?

    Joseph stared in shock, looking at Kharel with an incredulous expression. So much so that the young man asked in a trembling voice, "Are you serious?"However, it turned out that Joseph from the Kingdom of Blueming wasn't the only one who was shocked. Four participants from the Kingdom of Jorar suddenly glared at him. In fact, Remus Light quickly commented, "Have you gone crazy, Mackenzie?""Have you lost your mind, huh?" Jerry Glow asked.Kharel replied casually, "Why would I?"Remus snorted impatiently, "Hey, Mackenzie. Have you forgotten who he is? He's ... our enemy. You haven't lost your memory, have you?"Drew Mosh, who was usually calm, also responded, "Crown Prince of the Kingdom of Ans De Lou, I can understand if you and your friends don't want to kill. But ... bringing an enemy into our group, I can't accept that.""Why not?" Kharel replied, still looking calm.Calvin Reid quickly responded with a displeased tone, "You're still asking why? How can you-""If the four of you

    Gale More shook his head. "I think ... it's like when we're on a train. I feel completely blinded or ... numb."Kharel bit his lip and nodded, "Then it's most likely the work of the event staff."Gale sighed softly, looking resigned. "Besides, who has a tool like that? I mean, a drug that makes people lose their concentration like that. Only the staff organizing this competition would have that. Right?" Kharel added.Gale nodded, "Yes, you're probably right."First swallowed hard and quickly said, "Once again, I'm really sorry."Gale widened his eyes, "Why are you apologizing? It's not your fault. You-""The needles came from the Kingdom of Kiansa. I-""Enough, no need to discuss it anymore. Gale is fine," Kharel cut First off and then got up and joined his other friends. Now only First was still sitting near Gale. Gale, seeing the confused look on First's face, said, "Hey, come on. Don't think about it anymore!"“Gale, I-”“Enough, First. The important thing is that I’m fine now,”

    Leo snorted in annoyance, confused by Jimmy's slow thinking, "Jimmy, come on! Can't you see what's happening?"Jimmy frowned, looking confused."Jimmy, are you serious ... are you really the Crown Prince of the Kingdom of Sealand? Why is your brain-""Damn it! Just tell me what your plan is!" Jimmy cut him off impatiently.Leo rolled his eyes lazily, "Gale More. You know what happened to him, right? You're not blind, are you?"Jimmy raised his eyebrows, looking serious. He turned his gaze to First Kiansa, who was sitting near Gale More. He could clearly see the discomfort on First's face.Slowly, he understood."I know now."Leo almost clapped his hands in excitement. "But ... who will influence him? Me ... or you?"Leo smiled crookedly, "That ... has to be you.""Why?" Jimmy narrowed his eyes, looking suspicious."Because you two are both princes. So ... I think you can find a safe way to talk to him. As for me ... I'm just an ordinary soldier, how could a noble prince like him list

    Richard was about to speak, but Kharel held his hand back. Richard finally understood and left the matter to Kharel.Kharel turned to First and asked, "First, do you know anything about these needles?"First Kiansa, whose condition was improving, immediately approached and carefully examined the needles behind Gale's body, his face immediately turning serious. "Yes, I know. This ... is one of my ancestors' secret weapons."Niall, who was listening to First's explanation, quickly asked, "Secret weapon? Is it dangerous?"First nodded with a grim face, "These needles can make you lose consciousness and ... stop your heart in just three hours."Elliot's eyes widened in shock, "What? Are you serious?"Kharel bit his lip and immediately asked, "Do ... do you know how to handle these needles, First?""Yeah, I know that." First Kiansa immediately said to Kharel and his friends, "I need a few things.""Tell us what you need!" Niall said, his face already tense."We'll find whatever it is," Kha
