Riley kept a calm expression and replied, "Why are you asking about one of the war generals of our kingdom?"The enemy soldier suddenly smiled wryly, "Because you bear a lot of resemblance to him, young man. Tell me! Are you his brother? Or are you ... perhaps his son?"Hearing that question, Riley immediately tried to dig into his memory for all the information he had read in the book about the kingdom before he left for the battlefield.As he tried to recall everything, he came up with a name that he managed to remember."You're ... Bradley Martin?" Riley asked with a furrowed forehead, wanting to make sure he had not guessed wrong."A commander who was defeated by General Mackenzie," Riley added.Bradley was dumbfounded. The man was silent for a few moments and then returned to his gruesome smile. "Well, you're right. He did defeat me and because of his cunning strategy, my kingdom had to surrender to Ans De Lou.""Cunning strategy? You've misspelled it. General Mackenzie was just
Meanwhile, Riley was still moving with great agility and didn't seem to be under any pressure. Bradley could feel it in Riley's shots that were not too far apart."That young man is crazy! How can he be patient like that?"The man shook his head, "If I were him, I would have killed my enemy already. Why does he persist in attacking like that?"And again, he marveled at Riley's vision. Bradley thought that the young man seemed to have the eyes of a cat that had clear vision in the dark of night.However, he was wrong. Riley actually felt a bit clumsy when fighting in the dark."Oh, damn! When will he give up?" the young man muttered in frustration. He could have shot Bradley right through the heart. During the battle that had lasted several minutes, he had only memorized how Bradley moved and it had worked quite well.His predictions were pretty much fixed. Bradley was actually moving according to what he learned when he took out Bradley's friends who were still lying not far from wh
William looked at Andrew intently from where he was sitting, but Andrew did not answer. William could only sigh softly.Keannu who heard the sensitive conversation chose to respond, "Bill, come on! Andrew isn't the one who has the great ability to defeat enemies without killing. He is not you.""If he hadn't done that ... he could have been the one who got killed. You ... wouldn't want one of your most favorite soldiers to get killed?" Keannu continued, clearly defending Andrew.William exhaled harshly, "We'll talk about that later when you get to the palace, Reece! And now ... listen to me!"The discussion resumed and the king kept his mouth shut while listening to William explain his war strategy. Meanwhile, apart from asking the soldiers he was with to head to the area where the battle was, Greg Sehel also reminded them to be more careful when approaching.It was obvious that it must be a battle that took place between his kingdom's army and the enemy kingdom. However, since he
After hearing that stern voice, the person who was hiding finally revealed himself.One of the soldiers standing beside Greg pointed a flashlight at the person quickly so that they could find out the person's identity.Morphy glared in surprise, "Wood!"Greg looked up at the young man walking toward him."Commander," Riley greeted with a grimace, really not expecting to meet one of the commanders of his kingdom's army.He glanced at the figure of the soldier who had fought with him. He let out a long sigh, knowing that the man named Bradley Martin was dead.I'm sorry, you shouldn't have to die. I never really intended to kill you, but you died at the hands of someone else, Riley thought, quite sorry for what happened to the man who had a grudge against his father.The young man then raised his face, looking at Greg Sehel. He had a guilt-ridden expression and was already preparing himself for a spanking, just like when he met with Morphy and Ryan earlier.He knew he had broken the rule
Riley did not immediately answer Greg's words.The young man took a few seconds to reply, "I ... really can't know what might happen in the future. But ... what I do know is that I currently have a pretty close relationship with him."Greg's long sigh was audible to Riley. The commander could not say too much at that time due to the situation. So he simply whispered, "Let's talk about this again later, after we return to the palace."Riley nodded obediently, not arguing. He then looked back and saw that James was being carried by Ben. "Do you want me to take over carrying him, senior?"Greg heard that, but he could only shake his head."No need, it's close," Ben replied as he didn't look tired at all.They didn't encounter any obstacles as they walked towards the base. There were no enemy soldiers blocking them either. Morphy breathed a sigh of relief, "We're lucky we didn't run into them in the dark and with limited weaponry like this."However, Shin seemed to disagree, "This is ver
The Wood family was currently gathered together in their living room after the engagement ceremony between Shirley Wood, the youngest of the Wood family and Peter Green, the son of the gold mine owner at Carlo Hill. Cassandra Wood who was the older sister of Shirley, was sitting on the edge and didn't seem to like being there. Several times she saw her husband being a servant to her family. She was upset. Very upset. How could she not? Her husband had no authority whatsoever and was often the target of her family. She really wanted to see her husband fight back, at least once. But, in fact, until they had been married for almost three years, Bill was still the same. Still becoming a useless son-in-law to her family. "Hurry up and fill this glass, Bill!" Shirley ordered her brother-in-law. Bill calmly picked up the bottle of red wine and opened it quickly and refilled Shirley's glass. He then stood next to the old man who was Cassandra's grandfather, Christopher Wood who had a po
It was clearly seen that Bill was very angry. A shocked Christopher immediately asked, "Why are you yelling at Peter, Bill?" Bill pointed at Peter with his index finger with uncontrollable anger. "He's-" "What are you doing? Why are you pointing at Peter like that?" Shirley said, already approaching her future husband, visibly annoyed by her brother-in-law's behavior. "He said he wanted to get close to Cassandra," Bill said with an angry growl. Shirley was wide-eyed and immediately raised her hand, intending to slap Bill. But swiftly, Bill managed to brush it off. "How dare you make such a dirty accusation. He's not as low as you are, Bill!" Shirley said with great annoyance. "He said it himself. He-" "Enough, Bill!" Christopher shouted, looking furious. Bill let out a long breath. His chest was heaving, indicating he was furious. Peter said, "What do you mean by that? I'm just saying your wife is beautiful. Is that wrong?" He turned to Chistopher, "Mr. Wood, I was just bei
Bill sat in front of Emma's fruit stall until morning. The stall owner was quite surprised to see Bill there in the same clothes. However, she didn't ask any questions because she saw Bill's somewhat rumpled expression. As Bill was cleaning up the fruit scattered on the floor, a fruit buyer who had been there since before Bill arrived approached him. Bill turned to him with an astonished look. "Yes, Sir. How can I help you?" "Yes, General." Bill's pupils suddenly dilated at the call. Why was this man calling him 'General'? Did he recognize him? But how could he? Bill quickly put down the fruit basket and looked at the neatly dressed young man with a probing look. "Who are you? Why are you calling me 'General'?" The young man, who Bill guessed was much younger than him, said, "It's me, General. Your subordinate. Andrew." Bill squinted, trying to remember. Only a few people knew his real face. Was it perhaps someone he knew? But, it doesn't feel like his face is what it look
