“Got it.”
Holding the Blade of Justice in his hand, he hurriedly left. He immediately headed over to the military region.
“Emperor.”
As he entered the military region, many soldiers greeted him respectfully upon seeing him. James nodded and went
straight for the office.
Smack!
Before he could enter Henry’s office, he heard a commotion coming from inside.
“I’m warning you, Black Shadow. Release him now, or else you’ll face the consequences.”
James could hear rebukes coming from inside.
Opening the door, he could see an elderly man in a military uniform pointing his finger at Henry. “This is the Capital,
not the Southern Plains. You don’t call the shots around here.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHenry, who did not dare utter a single word in retaliation, stood up and greeted James respectfully upon noticing his
arrival.
“Emperor.”
“I don’t care if James is here. Release him now,” the elderly man said coldly.
“Is that so?” James said nonchalantly.
The elderly man turned his head. Upon seeing James, he yelled, “You came at just the right time. Release Halvor
Tuckson at once.”
Halvor Tuckson was the Patriarch of the Tucksons. A while ago, James came across the Tuckson family because of
Delilah Kimberley’s matter and abducted Halvor. Though he wanted to make a move against him, the chain of
events that followed prevented him from doing so. As such, he could only temporarily imprison Halvor in a
dungeon.
James looked at the elderly man before him. He was wearing a military uniform and a five–star badge on his
shoulder.
James recognized him. The elderly man was a former Emperor and commander–in–chief of the Red Flame Army
who assumed the position before Theodore Johnston. He had long retired after reaching old age. However, even
though he was no longer in position, he was still a renowned figure in the military.
“Yasir Parker, what are you doing here?” Looking at him, James said coldly, “If I’m not mistaken, you should be
almost ninety years old. What are you doing out here when you’re supposed to enjoy your retirement?”
Henry was standing by the side. Though he wanted to laugh, he had to hold it in. Yasir was a former commander, so
Henry did not dare utter a single word when faced with rebuke. All this while, Yasir had been applying pressure on
him. Henry had no choice but to avoid him at all costs. Now that James had returned, he breathed a sigh of relief.
“James, release Halvor immediately. There are some people you can’t mess with,” Yasir threatened coldly. “You
don’t call the shots around here,” James said nonchalantly. “Halvor Tuckson committed many crimes. I’ll never
release him before the investigation is completed. Mr. Parker, please return at once.

Once I’ve finished investigating the matter, I’ll visit you personally and inform you of the outcome.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“James…” Yasir gritted his teeth.
“Men, send the commander back,” James yelled.
Immediately, two soldiers walked in. However, the moment they saw Yasir, they froze and looked at one another,
unsure of what to do.
“What are you standing there for? Hurry up and escort Mr. Parker back. If anything happens to him while he’s in the
military region, you will be held responsible for this,” James reprimanded them.
“Understood.”
“Please follow us, Mr. Parker.”
Yasir glared at James and said coldly, “You will regret this, James. Just wait.”
Then, he turned to leave.
“Pfft!”
The moment he left, Henry burst into a peal of laughter.
“You’re finally back, James. Yasir has been pressuring me all this while. I couldn’t stand it any longer. Only
you have the audacity and the authority to rebuff him. Damn, that feels good.”
