Chapter 610 I Have Made Up My Mind

"Here, take a seat." Lance sat on his chair and gestured for Rocky to sit down.

Rocky obliged. As soon as he was seated, Lance expressed his gratitude. "Thanks to you, Evian City was saved," he said. "I have made sure that His Majesty is aware of the contribution you have made to the Crimson Dragon Group."

To Lance's surprise, Rocky did not look pleased. He looked shocked, as if he was reminded of something. The emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire reminded him of his early days at the northwest military camp. Back then, he was known as Rocky instead of Basil. However, the military camp merged with the main camp and so Rocky figured his identity might have been known to some, including the emperor. After all, Marcia sent an apprentice to protect him in secret. Perhaps the emperor was also spying on him.

"To express his gratitude, His Majesty had issued an imperial decree. You will be rewarded generously. I made sure that the reward is not anything you can say no to. I intend to restore you to Crimson Dragon General. This time, I will announce it to everyone," Lance stated.

"There is no need for that. You shouldn't have troubled yourself just to tell me this. If you have nothing else to say, I think I will have to excuse myself." Rocky was not interested in rewards. He got up and proceeded to the exit.

"Please let me finish." Lance was familiar with Rocky's cold attitude. He did not let himself be swayed.

Rocky stopped in his tracks

d felt that something was wrong.

"What about?" asked Rocky.

"I want you to marry Isis," Lance said.

Rocky did not know what to say. He never would have guessed that Lance would make such a proposal. He was one of the Three Great Generals of the Holy Dragon Empire. Why would he want his daughter to marry a commoner like Rocky?

"What do you mean?" Rocky looked perplexed.

"As you heard, I want you to marry Isis," Lance repeated.

"Are you serious?" Rocky could not think of any reason why Lance would force it. Obviously, there was a bigger reason behind it. Something was unknown to Rocky at that moment. Rocky guessed that Lance had known his real identity.

But even then, the request was still ridiculous.

"Why would I joke about this?" Lance said sharply.

"Why are you forcing us to get married? Even if I am willing, I am pretty sure she would never agree to it. She does not like me," Rocky responded calmly and waited for Lance's comeback.
