Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master -
Chapter 405 Who Is The Suspect (Part One)
"Commander in Chief, I am of the point of view you passed the judgment without a second thought.If Rocky were to be eligible to have the same power as the Deputy Commander in Chief, theCrimson Dragon Group would be in grave jeopardy if he would act in defiance. No one can getone's mitts on his allegiance to the Crimson Dragon Army..." Marin lodged a revolt as she got windof Lance's offer to Rocky. She didn't perceive why she kept guarding against Rocky. Even though heassuaged her from desperate straits in many cases, she sensed he was extremely mystical to beexemption from cynicism. She noticed there was a peculiar sense of distance from him. So, she feltan instant perturbation in her mind when she got wind that the Commander in Chief broughtforward such a fundamental position to Rocky. Although there was a time that she lacked convictionabout herself being exceedingly sensitive, she did not think she did anything faulty in any situation."Father, you need to have a second opinion before you make this declaration!" Isis also had asneaking suspicion her father's resolution was an impulsive one. It was not because she consideredRocky was not worth her credence. What induced her uneasiness was the impressive change inRocky's position in the military camp. Rocky was a mere captain of a small squad not long ago, butin no time, he would be a Crimson Dragon General who owned the same power as she did. It would,without a doubt, be a bolt out of the blue and generate an enormous turmoil among the entireCrimson Dragon Group if the news spread
"I have pondered things over concerning this promotion offer. I indeed am of the impression thatRocky is proficient in this position. He will be a qualified Crimson Dragon General," Lance replied ina reverberating voice as he peered single-minded to the two girls.
At that moment, Rocky also fell into deep contemplation in front of such an irresistible offer fromLance. He had to be of the same opinion that it was nearly in line with what he hankered after. Heyearned to secure the support of the Crimson Dragon Group. So, it would be crystal clear to see thathe would be an irreplaceable member in the Crimson Dragon Group if he could assume the title ofthe Crimson Dragon General successfully. That would be one step closer to his ultimate objective."What do you figure out?” Lance fixed his eyes on Rocky as he posed a question. His eyes, whichhad witnessed the critical junctures of slackening and flowed in life and the intricacies of times, werenow full of firmness and assuredness as if he was aware Rocky would doubtlessly accept his offer."It sounds like a pretty good offer to me! But I would like to make it crystal clear beforehand. As aCrimson Dragon General, I am not compelled to work in a daily routine. I will only present myselfwhen of the essence. Such as the call for me to take part in mapping out the strategy to respond toa critical moment or dire straits. This shall be the prerogative I am awarded with. If the Commanderin Chief can give credence to the conditions cited above, I will bite the bullet.” Rocky did not missthe slimmest opportunity to blackmail the Commander in Chief.
"Hey! Rocky, you overstepped the boundaries on that..." Marin yelled to Rocky with evidentindignation. Her holler reverberated in his ears like a clap of thunder; such was her rage. It was aroar of pure anger.
"That does not sound like a thorn in my side to me.” Lance actually gave it an acknowledgment onRocky's demand without any disinclination.
"Then, I will give the appointment a whirl as you wish. After all, it is said that acquiescence is betterthan sacrifice.” Rocky curved his lips as he saw that things were proceeding smoothly towards histarget. Everything went so well as his prediction. It made him be of the judgment that he was nowonly one step away from the ultimate goal.
Lance handed the Crimson Dragon Token and the top Dark Heaven Egg to Rocky as the latter hadcomplied to receive the offer. Rocky took both items and put them in the chest pocket inside hisclothes. And without any hold-up, he exonerated himself in a dash.
"Father, why do you vouchsafe to a title as the Crimson Dragon General to Rocky? And on top ofthat, you allocate the right to him a power to command thirty thousand soldiers!" Isis posed a quizto her father right after Rocky left the scene. She was conscious there must be a logical thought forher father's conferment to Rocky. It would seem anomalous for her father to make the judgment ona without notice impulse since she perceived her father always took everything with a heedfulattitude. Not to mention, it was a position equal to her in power, the Deputy Commander in Chief."Do you cast your mind back that I spoke briefly to you about the news I picked up from the PalaceCity?" Lance inquired as he looked exceptionally calm at his daughter.
Isis nodded in a flash as she peered, waiting with bated breath at her father for more information."Although I haven't figured out Rocky's identity, there is one thing about him that I can be free fromambiguity. He is in all likelihood a member of the royal family." Lance surprised everyone by thenews. Their faces were washed blank with confusion like their brain cogs couldn't turn fast enoughto take in the information from their wide eyes.
"What!" Isis and Marin were left open-mouthed as they perceived the unhoped-for informationfrom Lance. It was entirely beyond their quick-wittedness that Rocky could have such a prestigiousbackground.
"A member of the royal family? If Rocky were a member of the royal family, then why was hedispatched into exile to the Gehenna Border? This has, on no occasion, occurred to a member of theroyal family in the history of our country!" Isis popped a quiz in total perplexity. Her queries wereactually key to figure out the identity puzzle.
"That was specifically what I had been struggling to rattle out. If I could figure this puzzle out,Rocky's genuine identity would have been made public.” Lance looked grave in reflection. No onecould have any slightest clue on what he was putting on his thinking cap.
"Then, would it be feasible that Rocky is a royal spirit manipulator?” Marin could not help hazard aguess as she, in an instant, took a trip down memory lane Rocky had driven her Verdanim twice.
