Riley could barely hear the conversation, but he was not distracted at all. The young man was still able to maintain his concentration.

In fact, he seemed to be much more focused now. Indeed, when it came to concentration, Riley had always been the best. His own father, William Mackenzie, had even said that his son could concentrate better than he could.

The officer watched every bullet Riley fired and was impressed by Riley's speed.

"12," the officer said with a smile.

The other officers became interested and watched as Riley returned fire. When the shot hit the target, the officers smiled happily.

The future soldiers who had been making bad comments were shocked, "How can he be so fast?"

"17," the friend counted.

They were stunned when the officer finally said, "25 with a record time of ....."

At the mention of the time Riley had spent practicing shooting, the officer looked at the young man in awe.

"You passed," the officer said.

Riley nodded and handed back the weapon he had used e

    "We'll know soon enough," Riley replied, still staring at the screen.James, still munching on his bread, commented, "There are ten planes. How many potential soldiers can those planes carry?""100, I think." Riley looked around, now searching for the two figures of his roommates who were still not there.James stopped chewing immediately, "Wow! You know a lot more than that."But Riley didn't answer, so James continued, "Hey, your father was an ex-soldier, right? Come on, be honest!"Hearing this, Riley immediately turned around, "So what if my father was a soldier? And what if he wasn't?"James sighed and quickly finished his remaining bread before speaking again. "Then all the abilities you've shown so far make sense if you had a father who was a soldier."Riley looked around again, keeping his eyes peeled for Alen and Diego. But he still replied, "Makes sense how?"James was about to answer, but Riley interrupted him first, "Jason Hoult is not the son of a soldier, but he managed t

    Alen and Diego's faces immediately turned pale, but Riley tried to reassure them by saying, "I hope my assumptions are wrong. Although these bags are provisions for us, I hope they don't make us thirsty and hungry later.James said, "I disagree with you this time, Wood. Looking at Greg Sehel's madness, it looks like he's going to make us really die of hunger and thirst."Riley gave the young man a sharp look, but James just shrugged. The four youths were silent, waiting for the first exercise, which looked more like a selection of incompetent soldiers, to end.There was no conversation between them. This was because they were still too preoccupied with their own thoughts. They saw one person after another running towards the field."Oh, that's Jason Hoult." Riley pointed at the young man smiling broadly at his friends.Diego commented, "Even the third place finisher seems overwhelmed to be on this stage.""How did you know that?" Alen asked with a raised eyebrow."Look at that pale fac

    Diego ignored James' words, not bothering to answer the man who often threw out annoying sentences that only irritated him more.Then he read through the list of prospective soldiers he might know and came up with a few names from Dorm 2. The young man immediately nodded in relief, "At least I know three people from our dorm.""Good. Someone to calm you down when you start crying in the middle of a mission," James commented again.Riley really wanted to take a cloth and gag James' mouth so he couldn't talk anymore. Unfortunately he couldn't do that because Greg said again, "Your mission will be known when you are in your respective planes."Again they made no sound and waited for the examiner's instructions."And now please go to your planes and assign a group leader immediately," Greg ordered."Oh, one more thing," Greg said before officially dismissing them, "there are only a few food stores at your mission site. So ... you'll have to move faster later on so you don't starve."This l

    The well-built soldier, around 40 years old, said, "The group leader is chosen based on the highest points, but again, this has no effect on the final selection result of the soldier candidates.Alen gaped, "Damn. Why didn't I expect that?"The other candidates, who felt that they had not done their training perfectly, could only sigh."Oh, I can't possibly be elected chairman," the one standing next to Riley said in a disappointed tone."And the one who got the highest score for the first exercise in this group is ... Riley Wood," the officer said deeply.Alen almost applauded when he heard that, some people looked happy that the candidate who had been number one before the ranking system was abolished was in their group."Riley Wood, please step forward," the soldier of the second class ordered.Riley stepped forward and saluted before the officer explained a few things to Riley.Warren Clay was naturally upset to see one of the people he hated become the leader of his group.

    "Yes, but ... not to the point of hurting them, just to subdue them by taking away their pins," Riley explained.Alen, hearing this, frowned and immediately asked, "Pins? What pins do you mean?"Riley replied, "Pins worn by some future soldiers."Warren Clay, still confused, asked again, "Some? Are you saying that not all future soldiers will have the pin?"Riley nodded, "Yes. There are 100 of us, which means that 50 people will wear the pins that can be captured by other groups.""While the other 50 people don't wear the pins," Riley continued as he looked around, hoping that his group mates understood his short explanation.Alen nodded and burst out laughing.Warren gave the young man a strange look, while another prospective soldier commented, "You can laugh under such dire circumstances?""You're not crazy, are you? I don't want our group to lose just because of one crazy person," another prospective soldier continued.Riley shook his head and waited for Alen's answer, which he was

    Without further delay, Riley immediately replied, "I'll explain after the pins are distributed."Alen and one of the other future soldiers volunteered to help Riley distribute the pins. It turned out, however, that in addition to the pins, they also received another identifier in the form of a blue cloth to be tied to their arms.This scarf allowed them to identify their teammates. They also had the task of memorizing the identifiers of other groups."I want to capture group nine," a soldier said after each group's ID was displayed on the monitor.Alen, who had finished distributing the pins and returned with one in his hand, said, "Why is that?""It seems to be the weakest, look at him! The leader of that group is not one of the top candidates," the soldier explained.Riley immediately looked at the screen and recognized the candidate because he had been in the same building during training some time ago. But his eyes widened when he read the young man's name."Justin Donovan," Riley

    Riley immediately replied, "Maybe they discussed their strategy on the way or when we arrived at De Frost Forest."When Riley said the name of the forest, everyone fell silent. Riley knew immediately that they had probably heard stories about the forest.So Riley decided to ask, "Has anyone been to this forest?"Warren was shocked, "Are you crazy? Why are we going there?""That's right. De Frost Forest is a direct border area to the Erest Kingdom, a kingdom that once overpowered our kingdom," someone explained with a horrified expression.Alen nodded and answered, "It was there that General Reece was hit by an explosion that damaged his face and he had to undergo a major operation.Riley knew that too. His father, William Mackenzie, had once told him about his meeting with Andrew Reece after he had decided to retire.William couldn't recognize Andrew because his face had completely changed. But even though the forest had a bad history, it was still one of the training grounds, sometime

    When she heard the words 'final inspection', Rowena, who was still sitting there with her mouth shut, immediately swallowed hard. She actually started to sweat, even though it wasn't hot in the room.Then she also heard Keannu say again, "The inspection was done by someone not related to General Mackenzie, the results should be accurate."Greg took a deep breath, "If that's the case, then Mary Kesley is innocent. My God, Your Majesty. You have punished this innocent girl."Keannu shook his head quickly, "I didn't punish her, I just made her unable to do her job for a while so she would admit what she did."Andrew Reece replied, "I understand what you are doing, Your Majesty. You would think that Mary Kesley, Amanda Clark's daughter, would help General Mackenzie's son.""Of course she would. Amanda is friends with General Mackenzie, they are very close. In fact, she was the one who gave General Mackenzie the name 'Stewart'. So it's natural for me to suspect her, isn't it?" Keannu said,

    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

    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.

    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

    Instead of answering James Gardner's question, Xylan Wellington said, "I ... I know what you're trying to say, General Gardner."Great, so what's the answer? Reiner thought, starting to feel lazy.James raised an eyebrow, "Yes, Your Majesty?"Xylan sighed softly, then closed his eyes for a few seconds. After regaining control of himself he replied, "It was my negligence, General Gardner.""Negligence? About what, Your Majesty?" James asked, sounding like he wanted a clearer answer."My sister. I ... know she has done wrong," Xylan said quietly.The viceroy bowed his head for a few seconds, while James remained silent, waiting for him to speak again.And without James pressing him, Xylan said, "I've actually noticed something strange about her. This ... even, before you set out to find my brother-in-law again, General Gardner."James' eyes widened instantly, but he still refrained from commenting.Xylan cleared his throat softly before continuing, "But ... even when I felt something wa

    Hearing the new war general's question, Xylan Wellington laughed awkwardly.It was a laugh that didn't really come off, in fact, it sounded so strange that it made anyone who heard the viceroy's laughter confused.Reiner also looked at Xylan with a strange gaze while James did not even blink. The look in his eyes showed a demand.A demand for an explanation from Xylan regarding what he had just said.When he saw that urgent questioning look, Xylan finally stopped laughing. He cleared his throat softly before saying, "Hm ... I know from the main soldier.""The main soldier?" James repeated as he frowned.Xylan gulped and smiled clumsily, "The king's court soldiers, General Gardner."Oh, that wasn't really what James meant. He knew without even asking that the main soldiers were the palace soldiers specifically assigned to escort and guard him.There were usually five of them and one of them was required to stay by his side

    James Gardner remained silent, giving no clear answer to Reiner's question.An immediate anxiety struck the ground war commander. Not wanting to be ignored by James, Reiner asked again, "James, tell me. Are you going to stay in the palace? You're not going to leave, right?"He looked anxiously at James who was staring out the car window. However, after he waited patiently enough he finally heard James answer, "I don't know."Reiner's heart was like being hit by a rock instantly."So ... are you leaving?" the man asked in a tone that sounded disappointed."It depends."Reiner, who was still staring at James, raised an eyebrow, looking confused, "Depends on what?"James sighed softly, "It depends on King Xylan's answer."Reiner was getting more and more confused. However, he did not have time to ask further as the car they were in had already entered the main gate of the Ans De Lou Royal palace. Even so, Reiner still did not want to give up so easily so he continued to stick to James e

    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
