Everything had happened all of a sudden.
Levi did not have time to react.
He thought that the twenty–eight nations were merely bluffing. Hence, when they attacked the
Southern Plains City, he was caught with his pants down. James did not blame him for this..
“Since there‘s nothing we can find here, let‘s return for now.”
James got onto the jeep. Henry and Levi followed suit. They returned to Lavender Town,
By the time they arrived, it was already noon.
To prevent the allied forces of the twenty–eight nations from launching another attack, James began
making preparations to defend the city.
After the preparations were made, he waited.
After James returned to the Southern Plains, the world paid close attention to the situation on the
battlefield. However, days passed, and nothing happened. The twenty–eight nations did not launch
another attack, nor did the Black Dragon army take the fight to them. Many military experts all over the
world were analyzing the battle. Three days later... The assassins James had ordered to infiltrate the
enemy nations had returned.
As they were assassins, they had to know their targets inside out. As such, their reconnaissance and
intelligence–gathering abilities were top–notch. In just a few days, they had accomplished their
missions.
In the office of Lavender Town‘s military region...
The assassins revealed their findings to James.
James scrutinized each piece of information.
Through the intelligence gathered, James found out that the passengers on board the tour bus had
committed wrongdoings in their home countries. Not only that, but before arriving in Sol, their families
had received a hefty sum in their bank accounts.
James was now sure that this was a ploy. Besides, before these passengers arrived in Sol, they had
met with someone – Floyd Zink.
Sex: Male
Age: 34 Occupation: None
Floyd Zink, the man who killed Scarlett‘s fellow grave robbers and snatched the ancient box from the
ancient tomb of the Prince of Orchid.
“To think it was Floyd who contacted them.”
Seeing this, James frowned. In this case, the Emperor must be the mastermind behind the scenes.
That was because Floyd was the Emperor‘s subordinate.
“James, this is information regarding Pablo Qadir. According to what I found, the Emperor‘s forces are
spread all over the world. He even has men in Ishkabar. It was only because of the Emperor secretly
helping him out in the shadows that Pablo was able to climb the ranks so quickly from a common
soldier to a five–star commander–in–chief of Ishkabar.”
May told James everything she had found. Flipping through the pages, James scrutinized each and
every piece of information.
After he finished reading it, he said, “Got it. You must be tired. Go and take a rest. Once you‘ve rested
enough, I‘ll assign you other missions.” “Understood.”
She turned to leave. Meanwhile, James called Henry and Levi. He trusted both of them the most
among the generals of the Southern Plains.
That was because he was sure there were moles among them who reported to the Emperor. He just
did not know who the moles were.
Soon, Henry and Levi arrived. “Commander–in–chief.” They greeted. James lightly waved. “Have a
seat.” The two sat. Henry asked, “Is there new intel?”
