Chapter 849
James stayed in the military region for the night.
In a room in the military region...
The table was littered with plates from dinner earlier.
James and Henry were each holding a bottle of wine in their hands.
Henry took a swig and said, "Now that the Emperor is dead, peace has finally returned to the Capital."
James shook his head to refute that statement.
"Peace? I'm afraid this is only the beginning of something terrible."
Although there were a few mishaps during the plan to assassinate the Emperor, James still managed to accomplish his mission.
However, he could see a storm brewing on the horizon.
The mysterious God-King Palace had appeared.Why did they suddenly show up and assist him? No matter how he looked at it, James could not understand.
Henry tilted his head.
"Why?"
"Forget it.Bottoms up! Tonight, we drink to our heart's content."
James did not want to continue dwelling on something so complicated.
At the same time, in a presidential suite of a hotel in the Capital...
A woman wearing a black dress gazed at the elderly man before her.
Thea asked doubtfully, "Why do we have to wear these masks? If we cover our faces, James won’t know who helped him."
Thomas, who was fiddling with a cross in his palm, simply said, "To prevent others from knowing your identity, of course.We don’t want outsiders to start looking into God-King Palace, after all."
Thea was still perplexed, "What should we do next?"
"Do as you please.However, be mindful not to reveal your identity.Otherwise, we’ll be in deep trouble.Not only will James be involved, but you will also be implicated in whatever ends up happening.When that comes to pass, you’re on your own."
After giving his strict reminder, Thomas languidly left the room.
Thea sat on a chair and mulled over Thomas’ words.She could not understand what Thomas intended to do.
However, she was content as long as she was able to help James out.
All this while, she had been the subject of ridicule for dragging James down.
The claims were not exactly untrue.
