Why else would he be so dedicated to doing all of this?My guess is that even if James doesn't become King, he still wants Sol to be under his control. He's going to personally trainsomeone to be the King.”“Then wouldn't that be like Mr. Lance?” said the King.“Perhaps it'll be different.” After giving it some thought, Gloom said, “At the very least, James wishes to end the convolutedconnections in the Capital, dissolve Orient Commerce, and bring Lance down right now.”“We can only take it one step at a time.” The King rose to his feet, deeply concerned, and said, “I simply don’t want the new Kingto be ruled by others after assuming the throne. | don't want him to be another puppet.”As he was saying that, he left the Peace Mansion since he had a meeting to attend.He did not go earlier because he knew James had returned.The King knew James would come to him after returning to the Capital to inquire about the Phantom Army, so he specificallywaited for James.After leaving the Peace Mansion, James went back to Thea's courtyard.According to his previous plan, he had intended to start dealing with the intricate connections in the Capital after his return fromDurandal.However, the Phantom Army sprung up.Moreover, the commander of the Phantom Army was Tobias, the same person who had made a sneak attack on Bennett for theSpirit Turtles core.The Phantom Army's presence was partially intended to thwart him.Right now, he could not make any rash decisions.“Emperor, we've arrived.”The driver's voice interrupted James’ train of thought.“Hm.”James regained his composure, got out of the car, and entered the courtyard.As soon as he entered the courtyard, he saw Thea standing in the garden.
