Female Novel
Chapter 831
Meanwhile, at the Cansington Military Region...
In an open area, a helicopter was at the ready.
On the ground beneath the helicopter…
“James, congratulations on regaining your former position! Now you’re off to the Southern Plains to
resume your command of the Black Dragon Army. If the news gets out, the people of Sol will seethe
with excitement.” The Blithe King laughed as he patted James’ broad shoulders.
James, however, had a look of resignation on his face.
Regaining a former position may have appeared to be a good thing, but the higher the rank, the greaternovelbin
the burden. Furthermore, once he was in command of the Black Dragon Army, he would have to lead
them into the Capital, obtain the Blade of Justice and kill the Emperor.
What would happen after the Emperor's death was still unknown.
“I’m hoping nothing major happens after this,” he said apprehensively.
“What could possibly happen?” The Blithe King chuckled. “In any case, if something goes wrong,
someone higher up will take care of it. You don’t need to be concerned.”
“You’ll be returning to the Southern Plains with me,” James said to the Elite Eight.
“Yes.”
The Elite Eight responded in unison.
Then, he turned to Blake and said, “You’ll resume your command of the Dark Castle.”
Blake rubbed his hands together and asked, “Ja… Dragon King, what about the thing you promised
me?”
James knew exactly what Blake was requesting.
“Don't fret. I’ll resume my research after I finish off the Emperor. Then, when I’m thoroughly done with
it, I’ll pass it on to you.”
James had just received the second volume of the medical book and had not yet thoroughly studied it.
Besides, he could not possibly give Blake the complete version of the book. He needed to read through
it, improve it, and give him a simplified version.
Blake could not do anything about James’ repeated evasions. He could only blame it on his poor
upbringing and his numerous crimes in the past.
“Then I'll wait for your return,” he said.
James did not say anything else before boarding the helicopter. The Elite Eight followed suit.
Slowly, the helicopter took off.
James closed his eyes and rested.
The Elite Eight were beaming with delight. Compared to the Dark Castle, they much preferred being in
the Southern Plains.
“We're finally returning.”
“I hope the world will be at peace after this. Then we'll be able to relax.”
“James will regain his command over the Black Dragon Army. We’ll then lead the troops to the Capital,
get the Blade of Justice, and kill the Emperor. After his death, the position of General of the Red Flame
army will be vacant. Who do you think will fill it?”
“Certainly not you.”
“Of course, I know that. I'm simply curious.”
They gathered around and gossiped. Meanwhile, James had a lot on his mind.
Gloom had revealed a great deal of information. In the Capital, the bigwigs were playing a game of
chess. The Emperor was merely a pawn. Someone else was responsible for his actions.
Besides that, he believed someone behind the King too.
At that moment, he had a premonition. The Emperor’s death would serve as a catalyst, and the Capital
would be in utter chaos after his death. The bigwigs who had been hiding would then emerge from the
shadows one by one.
Dance Dragon noticed his anxiety while sitting next to him. “James, what are you thinking about?” he
asked quietly.
James paused his rumination and shook his head gently. “No, it's nothing,” he said. “That’s right. I have
a plan.”
Everyone turned to look at him when they heard that.
