The men were silent, resigned to what the war general ordered.They realized they were just men who had to obey a leader's orders and if they didn't, they would be in trouble themselves."After this long war, I can determine the positions according to your respective abilities. And don't feel inferior if you're not in the front row. This is not the time to feel jealous or resentful just because you are placed in the middle or back row."Greg sighed softly and then continued after he was sure that all the soldiers who only numbered in the hundreds looked ready, "Remember, all you have to do is survive. We ... are attacking them but ... we are not allowed to kill them."Hearing that Ben, Shin and some of the senior soldiers who were used to finishing off their enemies gaped in shock. Not only that, some of them also seemed to be babbling as if it was impossible to do.As for Riley, he did not look nervous or agitated. On the contrary, he was relieved by the new rules. He could also gue
In a firm voice, Riley replied, "I am ready to do whatever it takes to defend this kingdom, Commander."A satisfied smile appeared on Greg Sehel's lips just before he closed the glass of his protective helmet. The commander immediately gave the order for all of them to get ready and within seconds they were off to storm the first point Andrew Reece had directed. The journey took almost an hour, but none of the four hundred soldiers seemed to want to retreat from the battlefield. Ryan said, "It won't be easy, but I won't lose to that young man."He clearly pointed at Riley and his best friend, Morphy immediately commented, "Ben told me that kid can attack enemy soldiers without killing them and Shin has confirmed it."Ryan sighed in exasperation, "It's very annoying but I have to admit ... that kid's abilities must be pretty decent for Commander Sehel to seem to like him.""Well, at first I thought it might be because he happens to be the king's future son-in-law, but ... after seei
Riley did not answer him, but Alen was sure the young man heard him.An hour later, in another place only a few miles away, Andrew Reece had just secured another base and was now checking on the enemy troops who had been taken prisoner by his side.Andrew Reece smiled with satisfaction that thanks to the new strategy proposed by William Mackenzie they had managed to turn things around.They were slowly reclaiming the area that was almost taken by the Fermoza Kingdom."General, there's a report from headquarters four," a staff liaison said.Andrew immediately turned around with a serious look, "What is it?"The staff showed a video recording that had been sent by the staff from base four.Andrew hurriedly took the videotape and played it. After a few minutes of watching the videotape, the man smiled, "General, he really looks a lot like you."He saw Riley bring out his best and set an amazing record. The young
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
Then, after knowing about the news he should think how to stop his grandfather-in-law. In the evening, when he had just locked Emma's fruit stall, he was suddenly approached by a number of large men who Bill guessed were common thugs. "I'm tired, don't bother me now!" Bill said with a face that looked so tired. A thug who appeared to be their leader came forward carrying a barbell. Bill scowled, "What are you going to do with that?" "You're the one who broke Baron's arm yesterday, right?" The thug asked with the fierce look. Bill frowned and suddenly remembered a thug who had come to Emma's stall and intended to disrupt it. "Ah, I didn't know that I broke it." "Hit him!" the leader ordered with anger. Bill casually engaged the men without expending much energy. He managed to land several punches on target. However, Bill was caught off guard by his cell phone which suddenly vibrated. The leader took advantage of Bill's unpreparedness and hit him rather hard in the stomach. "Fe
Bill walked into the Woods' house in confusion. He wanted to help his wife but he still didn't know what to do. In the midst of his confusion, Andrew Reece, who was his trusted man, came back. "No, General!" Andrew said. "My wife is inside. I have to help her." "General, how about we make a deal?" Andrew asked. Bill frowned, "What deal?" "If you are willing to come back, we will help you, General." Bill exhaled harshly, realizing that nothing in this world is free. Very reluctantly, Bill said, "Alright, I'll be back." Andrew smiled happily. Andrew then took an action to help Bill. "Good morning, General!" Andrew greeted on the day of Bill's return. "How are you today, General?" the young man asked with a bright smile."No need for pleasantries. Get on with it, Reece." Andrew even smiled nervously from too much excitement, "Yes, General." "But before that, I'll have a word with King Keannu first." "Yes, General. He will be happy to see you." "I'll take my leave," Bill sai
