Chapter 1430
At Durandal’s Royal Military Region… James was standing in front of a helicopter. Before him was the Queen of Durandal. Though James came here on a military exchange between the two nations on the surface, he left to sort out his affairs. By the time he returned, the military exchange was already completed. “Are you really going back?” The Queen of Durandal looked at James. Although she was in Durandal the whole time, she knew about the events that unfolded on Mount Olympus. That was because the Knights of the Louis family who participated in the conference had narrated the chain of events to her. She knew that James had defeated Archbishop Polaris, ranked third on the Elysian Ranking, and saved the martial artists who were abducted. “Mhm.” James nodded and said, “Actually, I came here to sort something out. Now that the matter is resolved, I’ll be returning to Sol.” The Queen of Durandal was reluctant to let James leave. She planned to further enhance her cooperative r

He kept thinking about the identity of the Celestial Sect’s Sect Leader.The Sect Leader of the Celestial Sect had saved him several times, and the scent on that person was very familiar.It was the same as Thea’s.In addition, there was the Malevolent Sword.He had always felt that the Celestial Sect's Sect Leader was Thea.Leaving aside the strength of the Celestial Sect's Sect Leader, this would be Thea.The only thing keeping him from being certain was the fact that Thea did not possess such potent strength.They were fighting alone against two opponents.They were fighting alone while up against Lucjan and the first Blood Emperor.What the hell was up with that?Even Callan in his prime would not be able to defeat the current Lucjan and the first Blood Emperor if he faced them.However, the Sect Leader of the Celestial Sect did just that.“James, what are you thinking about?”Henry's voice came from beside him.James regained his composure and shook his head slightly

After being on a ten-hour flight, James finally arrived back in the Capital in Sol.It was morning when he reached the Capital.He had a meeting in the military region after he returned to Sol, according to his schedule. He was required to speak at the meeting and provide a summary of what he had learned at the military exchange conference between the two countries.However, he did not have the luxury of time for that. He immediately left it to Henry to deal with it instead.Then continued on his way to Thea's residence without pausing.Thea had also calculated the exact time and knew when James would return.When James arrived at Thea’s residence, the gate to the courtyard was unlocked. He walked straight inside.In the courtyard, a tall, beautiful woman in a slim-fitting dress could be seen. She was trimming the flowers and plants in the courtyard with a pair of scissors in her hand.It was indeed Thea.When Thea noticed James had entered, she could not help but put down the

Thea panicked for a few seconds before letting out a sigh of relief. With a smile, she said, “So you're checking my strength, Honey. During this time, I didn’t slack off in the Capital and was completely focused on cultivation. I’m already in the fifth rank now.”James had assessed the strength of Thea's True Energy.It was in the fifth rank and almost in the sixth rank.It was indeed very powerful.However, compared to the Celestial Sect’s Sect Leader, it was not even close.With this kind of power, she would not even be able to defend herself from a single attack from Lucjan, much less defeat Lucjan and the first Blood Emperor.“Hmm. Not bad. I didn’t expect you to be a cultivation genius,” James said, beaming with praise. “You’ve only been practicing martial arts for a short time, but you've already risen to the fifth rank.”James was certain that the Sect Leader of the Celestial Sect was not Thea based on his assessment. Despite the fact that all signs pointed to Thea as t

After learning that Thea was not the Sect Leader of the Celestial Sect, James felt relieved.However, he also felt a tiny bit of disappointment.In his subconscious mind, he had hoped that the Sect Leader of the Celestial Sect was his wife.With such a powerful wife, he would no longer have to work as hard. He would be able to live off of her.He shook his head, tossing away the jumbled thoughts in his head.“Right, do you know of the Valhalla Sect?” James asked while looking at Maxine.“The Valhalla Sect?” Maxine wore a confused expression and cast a glance at James. She asked, “Why are you asking about the Valhalla Sect out of the blue?”“On my trip to Durandal, I learned a few things. They have some connections to the Valhalla Sect,” said James.Maxine pondered for a while and said, “I’ve heard Grandpa mention it before. It seems to be an organization from a hundred years ago. Their president was a traitor who served hostile nations. After Sol was founded, the Valhalla Sect

James' expression became more solemn.He sat down, took out a cigarette, and lit it.Smoke swirled around his fingertips.Maxine continued, “I've asked around and heard that the Phantom Army has a lot of power. According to the latest information, even the commander of the military region will be required to obey the Phantom Army's commands when necessary.“What else?” James asked while maintaining his composure.“Something else has happened in the military region. Halvor, who was being held in the underground prison, was released after being acquitted of all charges. The Phantom Army was responsible for bringing him out of the underground prison.”James continued to ask, “Has the King's side taken any action recently?”“No, nothing was going on. Everything is as usual.”“Hmm, understood. I’ll be heading back then.”In a grave mood, James got to his feet.“Wait,”Maxine called out to him immediately.James turned around to face Maxine.Maxine stood up as well and reminded

Thea rose to her feet and filled James’ plate.With a gentle face, she handed over the plate to James and said, “Honey, here…”James accepted it. As he saw Thea’s gentle face, he smiled. “Thanks, Darling.”When he called her ‘Darling’, Thea's heart melted.Her nose started to tingle, and she almost burst into tears.It had been a long time since James had called her ‘Darling’. At this moment, she thought that all her efforts up until this point had been worthwhile.It took a few moments before she managed to calm her emotions.Showing her pearly whites, she grinned and said, “After we get through this hectic six-month time, regardless of the outcome, we're going to leave and live in isolation, is that alright?”“Yes.” James nodded.He had grown weary of days like these.Ten years in the army and ten years of fighting. He was already worn out.If it had not been for the unexpected situation at that time, he would not have gone back to the Southern Plains.James picked up his

Now, all James desired was to put everything to rest and give Sol a peaceful Capital.Whether it would succeed or fail would depend on how the second half of the year played out.If he was unable to resolve all of this before the election, it would be due to his lack of ability. He would then stop being concerned about it.James' promise put Thea at ease.“I’ll help you, Honey. I'll get you to retire with me, feeling relieved, and leave the Capital without any regrets. When that time comes, you'll be free of worries, and be fully committed to being by my side.”James was unaware of the underlying meaning of her words. He had no idea what Thea meant when she said she would help him.From his point of view, Thea simply did not want to lead such a life and was wishing for less complicated and simpler days.After the brief meal, James quickly departed and made his way to the Peace Mansion to see the King.Thea, on the other hand, stayed at home to clean up the mess, wash the dishes
