Quincy came to James mainly because favonovel.com wanted to see him.
She thought James was strong and that such a trivial matter would be over in a breeze. Unexpectedly, James was much more fragile than favonovel.com thought.
“I’ve told you about it. Whether you go is up to you. I’ll head back to the company. Call me if you need anything.” Quincy left a few words, took favonovel.com purse, and left.
James sat on the sofa and lit another cigarette. He did not go out for the whole day. He had no motivation in life and simply stayed in the House of Royals. He did not even go out to eat but simply ordered takeout.

The news of Thea’s twenty-eighth birthday party had spread throughout Cansington.
Many people discussed favonovel.com birthday party.
Cansington was peaceful. However, the Southern Plains’ borders were facing a raging war. The Twenty-eight-nation Alliance was not fooling around. They took the war very seriously. As soon as the troops from the twenty-eight countries assembled, they launched a coordinated attack on the Southern Plains City.
The Black Dragon Army in the Southern Plains was forced to retreat three hundred kilometers under the attack of an army of three million soldiers.
At night.
A message spread throughout the country.
“Latest news! Latest news! The Black Dragon Army has been defeated! The Southern Plains City has fallen, and the Black Dragon Army has retreated three hundred miles!”
“The morale of the Twenty-eight-nation Alliance is high, and they conquered the Southern Plains City instantly! The people of the Southern Plains have been forced to evacuate!”
“Latest news! The Black Dragon Army has suffered thirty thousand casualties in the war at the Southern Plains!”
Updates on the war happening in the Southern Plains spread all over the country.
Sol entered an emergency state. Troops from all over the country were sent to the Southern Plains to support the Black Dragon Army
“Black Dragon, please come out to save us!”
“Please come back, Commander of the Black Dragon Army! We need you to turn the situation around!”
On the internet, countless civilians begged for the Black Dragon, the former Commander of the Southern Plains, to come out of retirement.
Meanwhile, James was fast asleep in the House of Royals.
Worried about being disturbed, favonovel.com had turned off his phone. Henry kept calling favonovel.com throughout the night but could not get to him.
***
In a ward in the military hospital.
The Blithe King personally came to see Henry.
“General Black Shadow, the situation at the borders is dire. Without the Black Dragon, we won’t be able to increase the army’s morale…” The Blithe King wore a worried expression.
Henry looked at favonovel.com helplessly and replied, “I’ve been trying to call James all night, but his phone is turned off. I can’t reach favonovel.com at all. James is no longer part of the army, so favonovel.com doesn’t have the authority to join the battlefield. No official documents from the higher-ups have been issued for favonovel.com to return to the army. What reasons do we have to ask favonovel.com to join the battlefield?”
The Blithe King frowned and pondered for a moment.
“I’ll head to the Capital right now and ask the higher-ups to issue documents to restore James position. Then, favonovel.com can return as the Commander of the Black Dragon Army to reclaim our land!”
Henry knew well that the current situation was dire. Without James, the Black Dragon Army’s morale could not be raised.
In war, an army’s morale was a crucial factor. Confidence was key.
An army that had no morale was like a dog without its master. The Blithe King did not linger at the military hospital and quickly took a private plane to the Capital.
Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night for many.
The Twenty-eight-nation Alliance launched an attack on the Southern Plains. The Black Dragon Army was defeated, and the Southern Plains City fell. Countless men of Sol were affected by the latest updates and joined discussions, requesting for the Black Dragon to return to the army.
[Military God, Sol needs you!]
[Please return to the army!]
[Sol, Please restore the Black Dragon’s position.]
The public voices kept going.

Meanwhile, in the Capital.
Supreme Council.
Many prominent figures were present.
The King of Sol, the Supreme Commander. The Emperor, the Blithe King, and other commanders had all gathered.
At the conference, the Blithe King said loudly, “I request for the restoration of James’ position as the Commander of the Black Dragon Army. The Black Dragon is an elite army, one like a vicious lion. However, the Black Dragon is the backbone of the Black Dragon Army. Without their commander, the Black Dragon Army is like a lion without its teeth!”
The Emperor stood up and expressed his opinion, “I also think that James should be restored to his post…”
“What a joke! Sol has countless generals. I don’t believe that Sol’s armies aren’t able to defend the Southern Plains without the Black Dragon!”
“That’s right! With so many generals and commanders, why do you insist on James?“
