FreeGoodNovelElias' eyebrows furrowed together slightly as he said in a displeased tone, "Con, you're the deputy commander of the Divine Strategy Squadron. Can't you act a little more mature?" "Ahem, sorry. I didn't mean to offend!" Dallas cleared his throat and gathered himself.
Elias asked calmly, "So, what's the good news?" "It's about Ben. Ben has achieved a breakthrough into the Profound Oriental Realm!" Dallas sounded extremely excited.
Elias' phone landed on the table.
His eyes widened.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtBenedict had managed to achieve a breakthrough into the Profound Oriental Realm?! How... How was that possible? He was only 28 years old! Profound Oriental Realm experts in their 20s were extremely rare, even if they searched the ancient records.
"Elias, what's got you all flustered?" Kaden gazed at Elias, a curious look on his face.
No matter the issue, Elias was never one to lose his composure.
He only lost control over his emotions when arguing with him. Thus, he was curious about what had gotten Elias to chuck his phone away from him.
Nash sipped on his tea calmly. He looked calm on the inside, but inwardly, excitement was washing over him.
He had expected Benedict to develop quickly after Anton's death.
However, he had only been expecting growth in the sense of mental maturity.
Was it not ridiculous that Benedict had gone from the late-stage Mystique Loyalty Realm to the Profound Oriental Realm, skipping right past the peak Mystique Loyalty Realm? Elias hurriedly picked up his phone, his voice shaking as he said, "Dallas, y-you aren't joking, are you?" Dallas said excitedly, "Sir, I would dare lie to anyone but you!" Elias thumped a fist against his chest, his heart racing as his face paled.
Upon noticing, Nash hurriedly placed a hand on Elias' shoulder, transferring a soothing gust of spiritual energy into his body to lower his blood pressure.
He decided he would prescribe Elias spills that helped fortify one's health before leaving.

After Anton's death, the government had not been able to show that they had even one Profound Oriental Realm expert working with them.
Now that Benedict had achieved the Profound Oriental Realm, he was more than capable of taking on Anton's role! Kaden pursed his lips. "What's the matter? Look at how excited he is!" Nash smiled. "Benedict has achieved the Profound Oriental Realm!" "What?!" Kaden sprang to his feet like a cat whose tail had just been stepped on. Then, he gave Elias an inquiring look.
Elias did not spare Kaden a look as he walked toward the window, his phone in his hand as he said guiltily "Dallas, about the commander position for the DivinSquadron... Kaden, Nash, and have all agreed that we'll appoint Benedict as the new commander. W-What are your thoughts on that?" Content belongs to en.kikistories"That's fine. Ben has achieved the Profound Oriental Realm and is more than capable of assuming that position!" Dallas did not hesitate before replying. Not an ounce of unhappiness could be heard in his tone.
"Do you think this decision is unfair to you?" Elias smiled sadly, the guilty expression on his face becoming even more pronounced.
Dallas hurriedly said, "Don't worry, General Copper. The Divine Strategy Squadron and the Celestial Dragon Squadron are just as prestigious as the National Martial Bureau and the Special Security Department, which means they need to be headed by powerful martial artists too.

After a moment's silence, Elias asked quietly, "Is that really what you're thinking?" "Why would I lie? "How much power does one need before it becomes too much power? "Ben has to addressas Mr. Cricton. Why would I want to be the commander when the actual commander has to addressso respectfully?" Dallas chuckled as he spoke.
"Haha... You're right!" A smile finally appeared on Elias' face as he said, "Bring Ben along with you to Capiton. He can attend the internal meeting tomorrow!" After exchanging pleasantries, Elias ended the call and returned to his seat.
Kaden looked like an excited child as he leaned toward Elias and said, "I've got a good eye, don't I, Elias? Don't you think Benedict has a bright future ahead of him?"
