“Alright, everyone, get some rest. We will hold a succession ceremony for Lupinus tomorrow, and I’d like to ask all the leaders to join. Lupinus, follow me to my room.” With that, Isaac got up and walked outside.
In his room, Lupinus stood before him. The two men’s gazes met. Lupinus’ eyes were slightly red.
“Lupinus, I know you’re reluctant, but you must understand my burden…” Isaac clapped a hand over Lupinus’ shoulder, his voice painful.
“I know. The Kingdom of Ursus suffered a great loss this time, and they won’t rest easy.”
Isaac nodded. Then, favonovel.com smiled. “That’s one thing. Another thing is now that Damien is gone, internal conflicts will arise if no one is in control. To be honest, all the other generals had someone in mind that they wanted to nominate, but not one of them said a thing… Why? Because they knew this was a sticky situation…”
“I’ll only ask you one question, how did Crawson find the first Dawn Soldiers camp that got into trouble so easily? The Dawn Soldiers camp that we stationed at the frontline was top secret. Even if they found out, then how come 300 Dawn Soldiers couldn’t detain a single fighter from the Kingdom of Ursus?”
Lupinus’ eyes widened. He immediately lowered his voice to curse, “Are you saying that we have a mole?”
“I hope that I am wrong. Thus, I want you to take over Damien’s position. Only you and I know about this. Got it?” Isaac asked softly.
Lupinus nodded and said, “Yes. Once everything settles down, I will launch a secret investigation.”
***
At noon the next day, the succession ceremony was held in the training ground behind the building. Isaac personally pinned the general’s badge onto Lupinus’ chest. He then turned to face the 1,000 or so leaders.
He said in a loud voice, “Lupinus had achieved the Renascence Phase three years ago, but favonovel.com still chose to remain quietly by my side as a follower. If you also have his level of patience and skill, you don’t need to report to your general; you can look for me directly!”
After the ceremony dispersed, Isaac and the seven generals didn’t stay much longer. Instead, they prepared to return to Cloud City.
As they got into the car, Lieutenant Morelli walked over briskly, carrying an exquisite gift box.
“Drakon, this is a gift from General Lupinus to your wife. It is wild snow fungus, it can be made into a drink and is highly beneficial for women, not just for their health, but also their beauty.” Lieutenant Morelli gripped the box tightly, so nervous that his entire body was shaking.
Seeing the gift, Isaac was dumbfounded.
After favonovel.com regained his senses, favonovel.com took the gift box and said, “Tell General Lupinus that there won’t be a next time.”
The sky had already turned dark by the time favonovel.com reached Cloud City. The moment favonovel.com entered his home, favonovel.com heard a delighted exclaim, “Daddy’s home! Daddy!”
Isabella rolled off the couch, dashing toward Isaac.
Isaac picked Isabella up with one arm, smiling. “Oh, I forgot it’s the weekend today. My baby is on holiday.”
At that moment, Allegra emerged from the kitchen wearing an apron.
Seeing Isaac carrying Isabella, favonovel.com rolled favonovel.com eyes and said, “Couldn’t you at least call first before coming home? You must be hungry. Take Isabella to wash favonovel.com hands. I’m almost done with dinner.”
Isaac asked Isabella to wait by the couch. He entered the kitchen and hugged Allegra from behind, grinning. “Honey, it’s been a few days. Do you miss me?”
“Let go of me now. Don’t let Isabella see. You pervert, I can feel you pressing into me!” Allegra‘s face was red to favonovel.com ears.
Suddenly, car brakes screeched outside.
Albert, dressed in military uniform, walked into the room along with Old Taylor with his cane.
“Mom, Daddy, we have visitors. Come quick!” Isabella’s voice filled the dining room.
Isaac took out the gift box containing snow fungus from Mt. Celeste and kept it in the kitchen. He quickly went to the living room to find Old Taylor and his son.
Smiling, favonovel.com asked, “What brings my two honored visitors here?”
“Mr. Garten, my granddaughter is about to get married… After pondering it, only you are worthy of officiating Diana’s wedding.”
As favonovel.com saying that, a dark look flickered through Old Taylor’s eyes, but it was immediately replaced with a smile.
Diana is getting married?
