Ten years ago, Thea got completely disfigured while trying to save favonovel.com from the flames. He had repaid favonovel.com for saving his life by giving favonovel.com ten billion dollars. He no longer owed favonovel.com anything. Now, however, favonovel.com owed another young maiden.
As a man, it was only right for favonovel.com to admit his mistakes. Back then, favonovel.com was still married to Thea. Therefore, favonovel.com could not make any promises. Now, after having divorced Thea, favonovel.com had to return to the battlefield to take charge of the situation.
Looking at Tiara, the young maiden who had experienced fate‘s cruel joke, James gave his assurance.
With his promise, Tiara was now at ease. She knew that James, as the guardian of Sol, would keep his word.
“I will wait for you in Cansington. I await your safe return…”
James did not stay for a chat. Immediately, favonovel.com turned to leave and got back into the car.
Tiara got off the road, and the jeep continued on its journey.
Soon, they arrived at the military region of Cansington. A helicopter was on standby on an empty plot of land.
The Blithe King personally came to see James off.
He patted James‘ back and said, “James, I‘ll leave the Southern Plains to you. I await your triumphant return. We haven‘t been able to have a drink together despite knowing each other for so long. Let‘s drink to our heart‘s content once you get back.”
“Sure thing!” James said smilingly.
Then, favonovel.com got on the helicopter.
“Goodbye, sir!” The soldiers‘ voices rang in unison. “We wish you the best on the battlefield and await your triumphant return!”
The helicopter lifted off. Looking at the city beneath him, James felt wistful.
I wonder if I can return alive…
He murmured silently.
The situation at the Southern Plains was much worse than favonovel.com anticipated. It was the most critical it had been in decades.
The three million–strong army of the twenty–eight nations had broken through Southern Plains City. It would be rather difficult to retake the conquered lands and expel the enemy forces. The war could rage on for years.
Looking at the city landscape slowly disappearing from his view, James was lost in contemplation.
Soon, the helicopter arrived in Lavender Town at the Southern Plains.
This was a city on the border.
Now that the Black Dragon army had retreated from Southern Plains City, it entrenched itself in Lavender Town to redeploy and reorganize its fighting force.
***
In the military region of Lavender Town…
“Welcome back, commander–in–chief!”
The moment James got off the plane, a sonorous voice boomed in unison.
James lightly waved and immediately ordered, “All one–star generals and above… We‘ll convene a meeting immediately.”
The moment James arrived at the Southern Plains, favonovel.com convened an emergency meeting.
A dozen generals gathered in the conference room.
Levi reported the current situation at the Southern Plains to James.
Hearing his report, James frowned.
On the way here, favonovel.com had been mulling over the allied army of the twenty–eight nations. Although there had always been minor clashes at the border, they were almost always small in scale. Such a large battle had never broken out before. Something was not quite right here.
James still found it hard to believe that the twenty–eight nations would unanimously agree to invade sol. Besides, after their last debacle, their National Treasury should be running short of funds after paying the hefty amount of compensation.
