Chapter 673
In the commander-in-chief’s office in Lavender Town’s military district at the Southern Plains… James, wearing his Black Dragon robe, was looking through documents. Knock! Knock! Knock! Knocks came from the door. “Come in.” Henry walked in with a file and handed it to James. “This is information regarding the allied forces of the twenty-eight nations. The generals and the commander-in-chief of this campaign are listed on it.” James opened the file. The commander-in-chief of the twenty-eight nations’ allied forces is a five-star general by the name of Pablo Qadir from Ishkabar. Pablo was born into a family with a military background. However, during the unrest in Ishkabar twenty years ago, his family was accused of treason against the state. As such, both his father and grandfather were executed. He alone survived and became a commoner. Relying on his efforts, he became a soldier and climbed to the rank of a five-star commander-in-chief. James had never fought

A voice spoke, “The Black Dragon has sent his subordinates to the twenty-eight nations to investigate the background of the deceased of the hijacking incident. As his subordinates are competent people, they should get to the bottom of it soon.” Pablo asked, “What should we do now?” “We’ll stay put. Let him investigate. The more he finds out, the better. I know him well. He’s an advocate for peace. Once he finds out, he’ll make his way here and try to deal with the current crisis without any unnecessary bloodshed. That will be when he meets his doom.” “Understood.” Pablo nodded. They hung up the call. Looking at the generals, Pablo instructed, “You heard him. We’ll stay put. Order your men to behave. Do not do anything they aren’t instructed to.” “Understood.” The generals nodded. At the same time, James, Henry, and Levi left Lavender Town in secret and headed toward the outskirts of the Southern Plains City where the hijacking incident occurred. A jeep that was driv

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.

“Mhm.” James nodded. “All our intelligence reports point toward a single man.” “Who?” Henry and Levi were perplexed. “Commander-in-chief of the Red Flame army, the Emperor.” James uttered grimly. “What?” They exclaimed in shock. Stunned, Henry asked, “The Emperor? How can that be? He’s a Solean. Are you saying he planned all this just to get you killed?” “I’m afraid it’s not as simple as that.” James wore a solemn expression. He still could not figure out what the Emperor was up to. He only knew that he was on the move. Back then, during the incident at Mt. Thunder Pass, he was forced to head into a trap after Henry had been kidnapped and fought against the elite fighters from the twenty-eight nations. The mastermind behind this incident was the Doctor King. The Doctor King, a.k.a, Jonathan Harris was one of the Emperor’s men. Ronald's findings revealed that Jonathan and the others were secretly constructing a research laboratory in Cansington. The laboratory

Everyone fell silent. Sneaking into Southern Plains City, which was heavily fortified by a three-million-strong army, and assassinating the generals of the twenty-eight nations? This would be the most daunting assassination mission they had ever received. They looked at one another. No one said anything. Scanning the crowd, May stepped forward. “I’m going with you, James.” May grew up in the Dark Castle and was brought up as an assassin. Throughout her life, she had lived in bleak despair. After following James, she finally understood the meaning of life. It was James that gave her everything. Now that James had a mission, she was duty-bound to fulfill her responsibilities. James looked at the others and asked, “Anyone else?” The assassins were hesitant. Although they were loyal to James, the current mission was extremely dangerous. The chances of returning alive were close to zero. They did not wish to lose their lives so easily. “I’ll follow you.” Death Danc

Floyd said confidently, “Rest assured. There’s a three-million-strong army garrisoned here. If the Black Dragon comes, I assure you he won’t be leaving here alive.” “Failure is not allowed. If you fail, there’s no need for you to return.” The other side hung up the phone. Floyd stood up. He tossed the cigarette bud in his hand on the ground and stomped on it. Then, he headed back toward the conference room. The generals of the twenty-eight-nations gathered in the room. Floyd walked over to them, and they immediately stood up. Floyd gestured for them to relax. Only then did the generals take their seats. Floyd scanned the crowd. “There’s news from the boss. The hijacking incident has been exposed. The Black Dragon now knows everything.” “What!?” They turned pale. Pablo eyed him coldly. “You promised us that the plan would be flawless. If word spreads, I’ll no longer have a place in Ishkabar.” Floyd dismissed his concerns. “Calm down. The only one who knows about

James watched them leave. He only left when he made sure all of them had entered the forest. He slowly approached the city. Almost immediately, he spotted a patrol team. The patrol was made up of five convoys, an armored car, an emergency unit vehicle, and a tank. James hid in a tree by the roadside and waited for them to leave. After they left, he secretly followed them. However, he could not find the opportunity to infiltrate the patrol. The next moment, the sun had already set. The number of patrols increased with the coming of night. Unable to find an opportunity, James gave up on following the patrol. He avoided the sentries and approached the city. He was only ten kilometers away. The enemy forces had increased in size. There were even soldiers garrisoned in the barracks. James watched them from the shadows. Finally, in the middle of the night, an opportunity presented itself. He found a lone soldier and finished him off silently. Then, he removed his clot

The woman left the tent. Jose looked at James, who was standing by the entrance, and beckoned, “Come closer.” James walked over to him. “So what do you know about the Black…” Before he could finish his sentence, a cold muzzle of a gun was pressed against his forehead. He froze. James grinned smugly at him. “I’m the Black Dragon.” “You…” Hearing this, a chill ran down Jose’s spine. He almost fell off his chair. Keeping the gun pressed against Jose’s forehead, James sat opposite him. After taking a moment to process the situation, Jose composed himself. His face darkened, and he said coldly, “How audacious of you, Black Dragon. Do you know soldiers are just outside? All I have to do is to call for them and you’ll be surrounded and shot to death.” James’ eyes shone coldly. “You can try. I don’t know about being shot to death, but I know I can kill you before that happens.” “Wh-What do you want from me?” Jose was frightened. He knew that James was fully capable of
