Chapter 386
Though Ferdinand did not fear death, the other generals did.
With James’ threat looming over them, they decided to concede. “I-It was Willy. He told us to send the twenty-eight fighters to fight you at Mt. Thunder. If they lose, then we were supposed to mobilize our armies.”
“That’s right! It was Willy who planned all this.”
“He instructed us to capture the Black Shadow General of the Southern Plains to use as leverage against you. We only mobilized because he said he needed our help.” Everyone clamored at once.
James clenched his fists.
Henry’s life was hanging by a thread because of them. He wanted all of them dead, right there and then. The atmosphere in the room chilled over. The generals lying on the floor could sense his lethal intent. They quivered in fear as if they were face-to-face with a ferocious beast.
James took a deep breath.
He unclenched his fists.
Against his personal desires, he chose not to kill them. After all, killing them might make it harder for him to leave the mountain alive.
“Reporting to central command. We’ve lost the Black Dragon’s trail. Please give further instructions.”
“No Black Dragon sighted in Area C.”
Intelligence reports began flooding in. James grabbed a general and hissed, “Order the army to head toward Area D.” The general did not dare disobey him.
“This is central command. We have received news that the Black Dragon has escaped to Area D. Head toward the area immediately.”
After the general relayed his orders, James smashed the communications equipment to pieces.
