The Blithe King smiled. “Black Dragon, I’ve been cleaning up the mess you created all this while. Shouldn’t you at least help me out here?”
James glanced at the Blithe King and asked coldly, “What do you want me to do?”
The Blithe King immediately said, “You’re a legendary figure in the army worshipped by many. I plan to make you the Chief Instructor of the special training…”
James immediately lifted his hand and interrupted the Blithe King.
“Forget it. I’m living as free as a bird. I’m not creating trouble for myself.”
The Blithe King explained, “You’ll just be a figurehead. It’ll certainly motivate those who are participating in the special training. If we announce that those who pass the special training will get to meet the Black Dragon, those guys will do their very best. There’s no need for you to personally direct the training. You just have to make an appearance and give a motivational speech every once in a while.”
“I see…”
James was deep in thought.
After arriving in Cansington, the Blithe King had been helping him out on many occasions.
It was a two-way street.
“Fine, I’m in.”
Upon hearing this, the Blithe King was delighted.
With the Black Dragon participating, the mission would be a resounding success.
Who was the Black Dragon?
He was a commanding presence molded from the carnage of war. From a common soldier, he climbed his ranks by stepping on the corpses of his enemies.
The Blithe King had seen the Black Dragon’s hand. He knew one could not stand against him in a fight.
“Umm… Black Dragon… There’s one more thing…”
“Cut to the chase.”
The Blithe King pulled out another document and handed it to James. “These are orders from the higher-ups. Have a look.”
James glimpsed through the document and frowned. “Were you behind this? Henry’s taking a temporary post at the Southern Plains. What does forming a special forces team within the country have to do with the Southern Plains? Why did you appoint him as an officer?”
The Blithe King smiled. “Since he’s free, I might as well give him some chores.”
James said coldly, “Since the higher-ups have issued the document, why don’t you go straight to Henry? What’s the point of showing me this?”
