Roar of the Supreme Warrior novel Chapter 1436

Thea rose to her feet and filled James’ plate.

With a gentle face, she handed over the plate to James and said, “Honey, here…”

James accepted it. As he saw Thea’s gentle face, he smiled. “Thanks, Darling.”

When he called her ‘Darling’, Thea's heart melted.

Her nose started to tingle, and she almost burst into tears.

It had been a long time since James had called her ‘Darling’. At this moment, she thought that all her efforts up until this point had been worthwhile.

It took a few moments before she managed to calm her emotions.

Showing her pearly whites, she grinned and said, “After we get through this hectic six-month time, regardless of the outcome, we're going to leave and live in isolation, is that alright?”

“Yes.” James nodded.

He had grown weary of days like these.

Ten years in the army and ten years of fighting. He was already worn out.

If it had not been for the unexpected situation at that time, he would not have gone back to the Southern Plains.

James picked up his cutlery and started to eat in silence.

“That’s right…” Halfway through eating, James suddenly put down his knife and fork, looked at Thea, and asked, “Do you know about the Phantom Army, Thea?”

“Yes.” Thea nodded and said, “After you left Sol, Maxine visited me quite often and chatted with me. We've discussed some of the Capital's circumstances. I'm aware of the Phantom Army's appearance, and I know that Tobias is the Phantom Army's commander. I'm also aware that the Phantom Army is made up entirely of ancient martial artists.”

James pondered for a while and asked, “What do you think the Phantom Army was established for specifically?”

Since leaving the Cadens' Mansion, James had been thinking about this question.

He had thought of many possibilities, but he was not entirely sure of them.

James felt Thea had changed.

She was no longer the sweet and naive young girl she used to be.

He looked at Thea and inquired, “Did Maxine tell you these or did you figure them out yourself?”

Thea laughed and said, “How would I be able to do this? I don't even know anything about these, so I can't really assess the situation clearly. All of these are things Maxine told me while we were chatting. She said that Sol's current situation is not very encouraging. It’ll all depend on who wins when several parties are vying for supremacy.”

“First, let’s eat. After the meal, I'll pay a visit to the King to learn more about the situation.”

James picked up his fork again.

When Thea noticed that James’ suspicions about her identity had faded, she breathed a sigh of relief.

With a slightly pleading look on her pretty face, she gave James a worried glance and said, “Promise me, Honey. Once the election is over, stop worrying about it regardless of who wins or loses, okay?”

“Okay.”

James nodded gently.

He did not know who could be the new King, but he was aware that for the new King’s ascension, many would be sacrificed.
