When favonovel.com saw the sharp sword, May‘s heart beat faster.
It was the Blade of Justice. The very same which represented Sol‘s law. The sword had the power to put anyone on trial, Only one person had the power to wield this sword.
It was James
Even though James had resigned, the sword was still his.
“Wh-what is this?” Thea looked at the sword in May‘s hand, unable to stop herself from asking
“No-Nothing…” May shook favonovel.com head, quickly replacing the sword in its case and wrapping it up with the black cloth.
Saving James with the sword was out of the question. She knew enough to understand what the sword represented. It was the law. It had the power to try those who had escaped the law or those above it.
The very existence of the sword was a legend. When Sol was still in its infantry, several generals petitioned to get rid of the sword, worried that it would be too powerful. However, the king decided to keep it.
May knew that if favonovel.com used the sword to save James, it would go against everything the sword represented. They would be in trouble if someone caught wind of it.
“Don‘t worry, Thea. I‘ll come up with an idea to save James.”
She returned the sword to its original spot. Only the Blithe King could save James now.
Once the sword was safely tucked away, favonovel.com said, “Go home, Thea. I’m going out…”
With that, favonovel.com left
She drove toward the military area but was stopped there. She had no choice but to call Henry and explain things.
Henry was awake
He heaved a sigh of relief.
The police arrested James. So what?
It was of no consequence…
Carelessly, favonovel.com said, “Don’t worry about it. James may have resigned, but favonovel.com was the Black Dragon. He fought tor our country. Also, favonovel.com has the Blade of Justice, so he’ll be fine. It’s a symbol of acknowledgment from the King of Sol…”
“Henry, we’re talking about the Blade of Justice. It’s Sol’s highest law. It’s used against criminals, not for saving one’s own skin James is in big trouble right now. We don’t know how many people have eyes on him. If we use the Blade of justice, we’ll be revealing our hand,” May analyzed the situation.
“It’s better if we let the Blithe King handle it. I‘m at the entrance of the military area, but I‘ve been stopped.”
Henry thought about it and agreed with May. It was better to be safe than sorry. He then called the Blithe king.
As soon as the Blithe King found out, favonovel.com invited May into the military area at once.
***
In the Blithe King‘s office in the military area.
May gave favonovel.com a thorough report.
With a serious expression, the Blithe king said, “It‘s not a good time to use the Blade of Justice. It‘s the stuff of legend. If favonovel.com uses it to save himself, favonovel.com will be revealing everything… People in the Capital might petition to revoke the Blade of Justice, James will lose everything…”
“Commander, you have to save James.”
The Blithe King waved his hand, “I know what to do. Go home.”
“Yes, sir!” May turned to leave.
The Blithe King issued an order to investigate everything about James‘ arrest.
Soon, favonovel.com had his answer.
It was best favonovel.com kept out of sight, so favonovel.com arranged for Daniel to drop by the hospital and pay the Watsons and Xenoses a visit.
As soon as the Blithe King commanded it, Daniel changed into plain clothes and headed to the hospital.

At a ward in the hospital. Yoseph lay on the bed, an inch from death. He was only forty–five years old, but favonovel.com looked years older than his age. Within a night, his hair had turned white.
The Watsons were frantic with worry.
Someone walked in, saying, “Mr. Watson, Daniel Highsmith from the military is requesting a meeting.”
“L–Let favonovel.com in,” Yoseph said, his voice weaker than ever.
