Soon, James had finished eating.
He wiped his lips. “Alright now, you’re free to go. Call the assassins here.”
“Alright!” Levi quickly cleared up the dishes.
After that, favonovel.com left.
Soon, May and the others were here.
Looking at the assassins before him, James said, “We can drop the formalities, guys. Have a seat…”
Hearing this, they took their seats.
When they faced James back in Cansington, they did not feel that intimidated by him. Now, facing favonovel.com as the Black Dragon in his Black Dragon robe, they could feel an inexplicable pressure. It was suffocating.
James looked at them. “You were instrumental to the assassination of the enemy generals. I’ve written an application to the higher-ups requesting that you be given a position. Once they agree to it, you’ll be deputy commanders of the Black Dragon army, the elite of the elite.”
This was a high-ranking position. This was proof that James recognized their abilities.
The assassins were over the moon at the news.
“Thank you, James…”
“Thank you very much!”
James waved them away. “Don’t call me that. From now on, you’re my subordinates. Address me as the Dragon General…”
“Affirmative!”
Their voices rang in unison.
James looked at them. They were highly-trained assassins with great physical attributes.
After brief contemplation, favonovel.com said, “You’ll officially be the Elite Eight, the elite secret agents of the Black Dragon army that only answers to me.”
“That’s great.”
Their faces lit up.
The Elite Eight… What a majestic title!
James smiled.
“Little Sis, there will be no Little Sis from today onwards.”
Upon hearing James mention her, favonovel.com instantly stood up.
She was dressed rather ordinarily today. She was wearing a black dress instead of a student uniform. Her long black hair and favonovel.com pure and innocent look belied the fact that favonovel.com was a cold -blooded assassin.
James continued “I’ll give you a title. How does the Phoenix Dragon sound?”
Little Sis nodded profusely, “T-Thank you, sir.”
James looked at Wanderer and said, “How does the Wave Dragon sound?”
Wanderer smiled awkwardly, “What an old-sounding name, but since the Dragon General personally gave me this title, I’ll keep it!”
“Midnight Wind, you’ll be the Midnight Dragon from now on.”
“Savage, you’ll be the Barbarian Dragon.”
“Grim Reaper, you’ll be the Immortal Dragon.”
“May, since you were called May Argentum, you’ll be the Argentum Dragon.”
“Scorpion, you’ll be the Scorpion Dragon.”
“Death Dance, you’ll be the Dance Dragon.”
James gazed at them and gave them their respective title.
“Feel free to voice your opinion if you don’t find your title satisfactory.”
“We have no objections!”
They said in unison.
“Thank you for giving us a title!”
James stood up and said with a grim expression. “From today onwards, you’ll be the Elite Eight of the Black Dragon army, the most elite of our forces. The Southern Plains require your protection. This is a huge responsibility for you to shoulder. Do you understand?”
James said solemnly. Their blood was boiling.
They never expected they would become the Elite Eight of the Black Dragon army, which was tasked with protecting the borders of Sol. They also knew that the world would be shocked once news of the formation of the Elite Eight spread throughout the world. That was because they were instrumental in the assassination of the enemy generals.
“We’ll keep your reminder at heart!”
The eight of them said in unison.
James looked at them and said with finality, “You’re now comrades-in-arm. I hope you’ll open up to one another. I do not wish to see any form of infighting and back-stabbing here. You’re now brothers and sisters. You can leave your back to the other and trust them wholeheartedly.”
“Divided, and you’ll be conquered… United, and you’ll be invincible…”
