“General Caide, what do you think?” Shane probed, clear hesitation in his voice. Even
though he aligned with Julius, he deeply respected Prince Rufus of West Lucozia. If Rufus
were dead, he would have readily joined Julius in his rebellion.
However, Rufus was alive, altering the dynamics. This forced Shane to contemplate the
consequences.
It was as Elijah had pointed out. He might dismiss thoughts of self- preservation, but he
had to think about his family and friends.
“General Gilby, we shouldn’t rush into a decision until the final moment. I have faith that
Grand General Rhys will emerge victorious in the battle against Logan.
“If Grand General Rhys secures victory, we still have a chance for a turnaround.
“Everett expressed with depth.
“That’s right! Grand General Rhys has unparalleled martial prowess. He’ll surely win. How
can Logan be a match for Grand General Rhys?” Shane nodded repeatedly.

“In case of an unexpected result, you won’t be able to escape the consequences alone
either,” Everett admonished.
“I’m just offering a friendly reminder. If you don’t find it helpful, then let it be.
“Elijah shrugged.
Their ideals diverged, and as the two generals failed to grasp his intentions, it was futile to
say more. To him, survival was paramount. Power and wealth came second, and
everything else didn’t matter.
While they conversed, the dynamics on the battlefield suddenly shifted. Perhaps due to
exhaustion, Julius’ attacks had noticeably slowed down. In contrast, Dustin maintained his
vigor, seemingly unaffected in the slightest.
In fact, Dustin had yet to unleash his full strength, allowing Julius to execute his attacks
freely. On one hand, it was to test Julius’ limits. On the other hand, it was a measure of
caution.

If Julius had genuine connections to the Dragon Guard, Dragon Guard members could be
hiding within the vicinity.
In other words, formidable individuals from the Dragon Guard could be lying in wait,
anticipating an opportune moment.
While Julius posed no threat to him, the Dragon Guard was different. Their current leader,

If they were to launch a sneak attack, he could end up severely injured or even killed if he

you’ll remain the Grand General and enjoy prosperity.”
“Do you think I’m a child? If I surrender, I won’t be seeing the light of day tomorrow!”
Julius shouted. Throughout history, the struggle for the throne had always ended with
either success or death, with no third option. If he failed today, death was the only path.
“I know it’s the Dragon Guard pulling the strings, and you’ve been misled by deceivers.

“Hmph! Do you think I’ll believe you?” Julius’s expression was cold, but his attacks

Dustin said indifferently, “I’m only telling you this because we are family. If it were
someone else, they’d be dead by now.”
“Trying to scare me, are you? Do you think you can defeat me? Stop dreaming!” Julius
retorted.
