Chapter 1235
Swoosh!
Sean’s movement slowed to a halt.
However, Sean’s subsequent reaction took William by surprise.
He thought that Sean would turn around excitedly after he called him.
However, Sean did not turn around and only asked indifferently, “What is it?”
He did not sound like someone asking for help.
William was somewhat dissatisfied.
Because even Colin dared not speak with that attitude in front of him.
“You gave up easily at the slightest setback.
“You’re not persistent at all. How did you get promoted to a nine-star commander?”
William asked, looking at Sean and frowning.
“I don’t have to report my past to you, Old Master Collins.”
Sean’s indifferent words caused William to frown again.
He found Sean extremely arrogant!
Sean was polite to William when he first came in.
He became a different person in a few minutes.
“You treated me respectfully because you wanted to ask for something from me.
“Now that I refused to help you, your attitude changed immediately. Did Colin educate you this way?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThere was a hint of discontent in William’s voice.
“You’re wrong, Old Master Collins.”
Sean turned slowly and looked William in the eye.
“First of all, you have no right to judge how my adoptive father taught me, Old Master Collins.
“I’m not outstanding, but I didn’t dishonor my adoptive father.
“Besides that, I was respectful because of your relationship with my adoptive father. I thought of you as
my elder.”
Sean went quiet after saying that.
He did not need to say the rest.
He was respectful to Old Master Collins earlier because of their relationship.
However, since Old Master Collins disregarded their relationship and said something so indifferent, why
would Sean bother reciprocating?
It was not his character at all.
“Do you mean you did not come to us because of Colin but because of the Collins family’s influence?”
William asked, looking at Sean and frowning.
Sean and William looked at each other for a few seconds. He did not want to waste time on such
nonsense.
“It’s true that I’m currently down and out.
“But the outcome is uncertain, and no one can predict it.
“I asked the Collins family for help today, but you’re not my only option.”
Sean looked at William and spoke firmly.
“You can’t defeat them.”
William narrowed his eyes slightly as if he knew something.
However, Sean was not interested in knowing what secrets William knew
“I can only find out if I can defeat them after confronting them
“But the Collins family opened my eyes today”
Sean said and turned to leave.
“Stop right there!
“What do you mean by that?
“Is that how you behave because I won’t help you?
William stepped forward, his voice tinged with anger
“The Collins family is descended from a famous general
“Though you’ve been discharged from the military, you should help out the country.
“The situation is currently tense at the borders. The current commander doesn’t deserve his position as
he keeps losing our cities.
“The Collins family did nothing as they watched, allowing Dragon Kingdom’s land to fall into the hands
of the enemy.
“Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the nation. Will the Collins family not take responsibility
for their part?”
When Sean said that, William fell silent for a moment before turning his head to look at Hubert.
William understood everything when he saw Hubert blushing.
He had not paid much attention to army affairs in the past two years and knew very little about them.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHowever, Hubert’s reaction told William that Sean was telling the truth.
“So, what on earth do you want to do?”
William withdrew his gaze and looked back at Sean.
“All army matters should be taken seriously.
“Whoever’s capable must take over the position, while the mediocre ones should stand aside and
follow.
“All unworthy ones who dare to lead must die!”
Sean spoke loudly and forcefully.
He could not change the army hierarchy, so he would overthrow the current hierarchy and create his
own rules.
“Do you think you’re capable and everyone else is mediocre?”.
William narrowed his eyes slightly and asked again.
“I’ve been on the battlefield for eight years since I enlisted.
“I have killed 100,000 enemy soldiers, and I slayed 30 of their commanders singlehandedly.
“I reclaimed almost 5,000 kilometers of lost land with minimal casualties.
“I’ve fought hard to claim 4,000 kilometers of land in 8 years, yet Blaze lost it in 2 years since he took,
charge.
“A quarter of a million soldiers have died. And we lost our land at a high cost.
“I won’t say whether I’m capable, but look at my achievements.”
Sean’s words rendered Hubert and William speechless.
Sean said that to make a statement.
The Collins family was not helping Sean but the whole Dragon Kingdom.
Helping Dragon Kingdom was also helping themselves.
Therefore, it was ridiculous that William wanted Sean to beg for help.
