In the Black Dragon Palace in the Southern Plains…
James was severely lacking in sleep.
The moment favonovel.com reached the Black Dragon Palace, favonovel.com immediately made a beeline toward his bed and fell fast asleep. He slept throughout the day.
Growl!
His stomach rumbled. James got up and rubbed his tummy.
He looked outside. The sky was already dark. Then, favonovel.com grabbed his phone and looked at the time. It was eight in the evening. He noticed there were quite a few missed calls and messages. They were all from Quincy.
He frowned and murmured, “What’s this woman up to?”
He ignored the messages. He simply got dressed and left. Many ordinary citizens and reporters gathered outside the Black Dragon Palace.
Some were holding bouquets, while others held banners up high. Many fully-armed soldiers guarded the entrance of the Black Dragon Palace. With their backs straightened, they were there to keep the crowd in check.
James’ biggest worry was people causing a fuss about him.
After getting a glimpse of the crowd, favonovel.com immediately turned back.
“Black Dragon…” “Dragon General, don’t leave!”
Upon seeing James, the crowd bubbled with excitement.
“Over here, James!” A woman in a red dress was waving at James.
She wanted to barge into the palace but was stopped by the guards.
“James, it’s me, Quincy! Over here…” Quincy waved while shouting,
However, favonovel.com shouting was drowned out by the cacophony of noises from the crowd.
“I love you, Dragon General!”
“I want to have your babies!”
They were screaming fervently.
James ignored them. He entered the Black Dragon Palace and sat in the living room.
Then, favonovel.com pulled his phone out,“ Get me something to eat.”
As favonovel.com had just retaken Southern Plains City without a fight, favonovel.com was now a national hero. The citizens were currently whipped up in an excited frenzy. He just needed to wait until it all blows over.

Outside the palace…
Quincy was dismayed. She was keenly aware that James needed to sleep so favonovel.com did not bother contacting favonovel.com in the morning. It was only in the afternoon that favonovel.com give James a call. However, no one picked up.
Now, despite favonovel.com screaming at the top of favonovel.com lungs, James paid no heed to her.
She pulled favonovel.com phone out and sent another message to James.
“James, I’m outside.”
James’ phone vibrated. He pulled his phone out and saw the message Quincy sent.
He sat on the sofa and murmured silently, “What’s this woman’s deal? Why can’t favonovel.com just stay put in Cansington? Why did favonovel.com have to come all the way to the Southern Plains?”
James did not know why Quincy came to the Southern Plains, and favonovel.com was not bothered to find out.
He took a nap on the sofa. Soon, his food had been served.
Levi personally brought the food to him.
“Sir, we’ve scanned the perimeter of the Southern Plains. We found no traces of the allied forces of the twenty-eight nations.”
He stood beside James and reported.
As favonovel.com ate, James pointed at the sofa and said, “No need to be so formal. Have a seat.”
Levi took his seat.
James asked, “By the way, how’s the situation with Henry?”
Levi reported everything in detail. “He brought the convoys to the twenty-eight nations and is currently in the negotiation process. The international community is paying close attention to this, and the whole process was broadcasted live. At the negotiating table, the representatives of the twenty-eight nations were at a loss of words when faced against Black Shadow General’s eloquent argument.”
James grinned satisfactorily. “I knew favonovel.com was the right guy for this. Instruct favonovel.com to pressure the twenty-eight nations. If they don’t comply in giving up their territory, the Black Dragon army will raze them to the ground,”
“Understood!” Levi nodded.
“By the way, write an application and send it to the Capital.”
Levi tilted his head quizzically. “What application?”
James said, “The assassins played a crucial role in the assassination of the generals of the twenty-eight nations and the retaking of Southern Plains City. I’m planning to write an application to formally request the higher-ups to give them all a position.”
“Understood!” Levi nodded.
