The War God's Homecoming

Chapter 305 Oriana'S Demands

Chapter 305 Oriana's Demands

Hale Holmes didn't recognize Billy and his group, but his cousin, Rufus Holmes, was a minor official in the Capital Sky Office, there was no way he wouldn't recognize the renowned King of the West, Commander Gardner!

He had never expected that the person his cousin had called him to deal with would turn out to be Billy Gardner. And now he was even contemplating killing Hale Holmes, who had dragged others into this mess. Let alone Rufus Holmes himself, even his immediate superior wouldn't dare to speak loudly in front of this man. Furthermore, he knew that one of the most outstanding younger members of the Holmes clan, Simon Holmes, had narrowly escaped death at the hands of Commander Gardner after losing an arm a while back. Unfortunately, Rufus had voluntarily walked into this predicament today.

Hearing what his cousin said, Hale Holmes fell to the ground, trembling uncontrollably. The person he had been talking about killing was actually Commander Gardner.

Truly, he had brought this upon himself. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

"Wow, so this is Commander Gardner!" A chorus of amazement arose from the onlookers.

Those who came to play golf here had varying degrees of status and influence, and many had heard of the famous King of the West, Commander Gardner, who was also a senior official in the Department of War and a legendary figure.

Even in the minds of ordinary people, the name Commander Gardner was held in high esteem.

They hadn't expected that one day they would have the privilege of such close contact with this legendary figure. Everyone's eyes filled with admiration as they looked at Billy.

"Do you know me?" Billy turned to look at Rufus Holmes. "Which department are you from? State your name."

"Commander Gardner, I'm Rufus Holmes, and I serve in the Household Ministry..." Rufus Holmes stammered with great difficulty.

"Household Ministry?" Billy said calmly, then pointed at Hale Holmes and Sigmund Hampton. "Did you come here to stand up for them?"

Rufus Holmes couldn't hold up any longer and knelt down, trembling uncontrollably.

"Yes... I'm so sorry, I didn't know it was you... I'm sorry."

"From what you're saying, if I hadn't been here today, you would have taken his side?" Billy asked with a cold tone.

"N-No... that's not what I meant..." Rufus Holmes shivered and hastily kowtowed.

"I-I'm sorry, I know I was wrong, please, Commander Gardner, spare me this time. I won't dare to do it again..."

"Do you know what they did?" Billy continued to inquire.

"I..." Rufus Holmes shivered again. Then, he gritted his teeth, got up, and quickly walked over to Hale Holmes. He pulled out a dagger from his side without hesitation and struck down.

The next second, Hale Holmes' arm fell to the ground, blood spurting out.

"Ahh..." Hale screamed in pain and rolled on the ground.

"You scoundrel, you kowtow to foreigners, bully the people of Glavale, and you truly deserve to die!" Rufus Holmes pointed his dagger at his own cousin, his voice filled with resentment. Afterward, as if

feeling that it wasn't enough, he raised his wrist and seemed ready to strike again.

"Enough!" Billy said calmly.

"Commander Gardner, let me kill this scoundrel, this piece of trash..." Rufus Holmes turned to Billy.

"Go back and explain to Buck Tenny. How to deal with you is his decision!" Billy interrupted him and waved his hand.

Buck Tenny, Rufus Holmes's boss's boss, the top official in the Household Ministry.

"Commander Gardner... I..." Upon hearing Billy's words, Rufus Holmes shivered uncontrollably. He was well aware of who Buck Tenny was. If he let the man know that he had been exposed by Commander Gardner, there was probably no way he could keep his official position.

"Get out!" Billy's tone grew colder.

"Yes, Commander." Rufus Holmes, with a hopeless expression on his face, turned and left. The people he had brought with him quickly followed suit.

"Brigham, take him back to SHADOW." Billy pointed at Sigmund Hampton. "And send someone to Central Sky Office with a message. Tell them that he's in SHADOW's hands and give Oriana's people two hours to see him. If they don't show up, they'll see his body!"

After that, he and Night Orchid turned and walked towards the exit.

"Yes, Commander!" Brigham Bush responded loudly. Then, leading the SHADOW members, he approached Hale Holmes and Sigmund Hampton.

"Commander Gardner, you're so handsome!"

"Commander Gardner, we love you!"

The onlookers cheered once again.

An hour later, Billy and his group returned to the SHADOW base.

Shane Cross took his team to interrogate Hale Holmes, while Brigham Bush carried Sigmund Hampton and followed Billy and Night Orchid into the conference hall.

"Boss!" A moment after they had taken their seats, Casey and Azure Dragon entered.

After greeting Billy, Azure Dragon went straight to Sigmund Hampton.

"Is this the Orianan guy? He's really looking for trouble, daring to come to Glavale and act like this. You're very presumptuous, ain't you?" As Azure Dragon spoke, he kicked him away. His demeanor indicated that he was quite angry.

"Why did you two come here? Is the matter over there resolved?" Billy asked with a faint smile.

"Boss, since you've brought this guy here and only given them two hours, how can they negotiate?" Night Orchid chuckled.

"That's true!" Billy smiled again and then turned to Casey. "What did you discuss with them?"

"What's the point of negotiating with them?" Before Casey could speak, Azure Dragon interjected angrily. "They're a bunch of scoundrels, brazenly making several demands."

"As expected." Billy laughed and continued, "What demands?"

Casey began, "Firstly, they want us to compensate them with five hundred billion for the loss they incurred when we intercepted their intelligence last time."

"Secondly, they want us to pay another five hundred billion as compensation for killing their War Department Grand Elder."

"Thirdly, they want us to hand over Lance Glisson to them."

"Fourthly, they want us to withdraw the Eastern Territory's one hundred thousand Bloodshadow Troopers within three days."

"Oh?" Billy's eyes showed a hint of sharpness, and at the same time, a chilling aura emanated from him.

"What was Central Sky Office's response?" Billy asked, picking up his teacup and taking a sip.

"They haven't responded yet." Casey replied.

"But the other two departments have been acting as intermediaries, saying that they are willing to negotiate on the conditions."

"Interesting!" Billy narrowed his eyes slightly and paused for a moment before asking. "What's General Wilson's reaction?"
