The Guardian’s Sword By Talking Cigarette Chapter 205

Chapter 205 Sean Lennon was silent after he heard what Zander Young asked,

The godfather that had adopted him from the orphanage had already died on the battlefield,

The brother that he had trusted in the past had stabbed him in the back at the most crucial time.

It did seem like there was nothing much for Sean to look forward to at that place.

However, when he met Zander‘s hopeful gaze, Sean could not bear to blatantly reject Zander.

Sean hesitated for a while before he delivered the blow with a nice packaging,

“Willow had been by my side, protecting me for the past two years without any complaints.

“I want to make it up to her. When things are done, then we can move on to other things.”

“Commander, no matter what you want to do, I will support you sully.

“However, after you‘ve made it up to Madam, please, you have to go back!”

Zander‘s tone was immensely firm.

“Things are critical at the border now since we practically lost every battle we fought. The army needs a

boost in morale.

“We need you there, our brothers need you, the entire Great Solaria needs you!

“You know, a lot of our brothers have died in vain on the battlefield because of wrong commands!”

Zander‘s hands were tightly clenched into fists when he spoke about this. His fingernails cut deeply into

the flesh of his palms.

As a soldier, they were not afraid of death.

For the responsibility entrusted to them, to protect the ones they had placed deep in their hearts, they

were ready to guard the peace of the entire Great Solaria with their fiery passion, and their lives.

The one that they were most afraid of, was to die, in vain, for nothing, for no reason.

They could have won the battle with a huge advantage on their side, but because of false commands,

countless soldiers died in vain on the battlefield.

How could Zander not seel enraged about it? How do the soldiers not feel bleak and hopeless about it?

When Sean heard that many of his brothers clied in vain, liis lands trembled.

He was aloof, and he was a man of a few words.

However, the sense of brotherhood was deeply ingrained in his lieart.

He was someone with high morality, and lie was loyal and riglilcous.

Even after being backstabbed, he still lield onto those values.

“Tell me about how our brothers are doing.”

Sean was quiet for a moment before he asked in a faint sigh.

There were some things that he could not escape from.

Blaze Lake betrayed him, but not everyone was like Blaze.

The lundred thousand personal guards were filled with loyal people like Zander, and Sean could not

just turn a blind eye towards them.

“Yes, Commander.”

Zander stood up and started reporting to Sean.

“That time, you were betrayed by Blaze after the exhausting battle to avenge your godsather.

“Then, Blaze had twisted things around and with the power given to him by the Lake family, they had

rumormongered to discredit you.

“Myself and a few other personal guards did all we could to ship you out in secrecy and have tried to

look for many doctors, but to no avail.

“As things were about to be exposed, we could only temporarily send you over to the Quinn family in

River City.”

When Zander paused, Sean nodded slightly.

Even though Zander may recount it with ease, Scan could only imagine how much Zander had to do to

protect him, and how many brothers‘ lives were lost because of it. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

“Initially, I thought since Old Master Quinn was the one that had begged for this engagement 10

happen, and since Levi Quinn was a righteous man, I thought the Quinns were the same.

“We thought that they would take good care of you...

“Alas...”

When Zander spoke about all these, he could not help but grit his teeth in regret.

If only he knew things would turn out to be like this, he would not send Sean over to the Quinns, no

matter what.

“Okay, enough about this.

“What happened after I left?”

Sean did not care much. In the past two years, he was already used to low the Quinns had treated him.

Zander nodded and continued with liis report.

Two years ago, Blaze betrayed Sean, causing Sean to disappear overnight without a trace.

After that, the Lake family, wlio was the force behind Blaze used a lot of their connections to cover up

regarding this treachery.

Their explanation to Zander and his brothers was that Commander Lennon was exhausted mentally

and physically, so he had retired early to take a break.

The handful of people who knew the truth were quickly executed silently by Blaze.

Immediately, Blaze started to rise rapidly in the ranks.

Then, he quickly disbanded Sean‘s troops and separated them into different other teams.

The hundred thousand personal guards were disbanded as well and were forbidden to gather.

Once Sean had fallen, his trusted lest and right hands had all experienced a similar fate.

To be stripped of their military ranking was the better outcome since some of them were stripped of

their lives.

Blaze, on the other hand, had chosen all his confidants to assume high–ranking positions.

“Even though they were really greedy, what they could do was limited.

“After Blaze liad risen up, all we‘ve had are lost battles. We were completely defeated.

“The lands you conquered and took over were gone, and are once again back in the hands of the

enemy.”
