The Almighty Dragon General

The Almighty Dragon General Chapter 5918
Soon enough, nine epochs had passed.
With enough supplies of Genesis Cores and the effects of the time formation, Stephen managed to enter the Yuraeceon Xaelm
Rank's Second Tribulation eventually.
Surprisingly, he did not experience much difficulty when facing the Heavenly Tribulation triggered by his leveling up.
It turned out that the Quasar Lightning found on James' Golden Body could affect the intensity of a Heavenly Tribulation. The
lightning had attracted and absorbed a majority of the Heavenly Tribulation's powers aiming for Stephen.
After that, Stephen healed all of the injuries sustained during the Heavenly Tribulation by drawing the powers of three Yuraeceon
Daelm Rank Genesis Cores.
James undid the time formation not too long after that. When all of them exited the main hall, they saw someone standing in the
distance with their backs facing the entrance.
“It's Mr. Truett," Stephen lifted his brows as he whispered to the others.
“Didn't he leave after throwing a tantrum?" Quattro muttered, "Why is he back again? Does he want to have another battle with
the Dragon General because he finds it unfair?"
"Keep your mouth shut." James sent Quattro a glare. "Don't poke fun at him like that again later. Otherwise, I'll roast you for
dinner tonight."

Quattro hurried over to Xzavion's side and hid behind him. Currently, James was the only person who could truly keep Quattro
under control.
"Mr. Truett seems a little different than how he used to be." Xzavion looked at Truett. "Did losing the battle that time really crush
his ego and pride?"
"No one can destroy something that you truly take pride in," James replied. Then, he walked down the stairs and went up to
Truett.
Truett turned around and gazed at James. "Are we friends?"
"We weren't." James said flatly, "However, we are friends now since you've come back."
"So, all of you plotted those plans to test me?" Truett's eyes narrowed. "It's as though I am just a pawn that you can use and
manipulate as you please."
"I have nothing to say if that's what you've concluded after all this time." James shrugged.
Truett knitted his brows. "Those with power or status would often use their tactics to manipulate the fates of people or our worlds.
I never thought you would be someone like that too!"
“I have always been like that." James lifted his gaze and stared into the distance. “It's not too late for you to leave if you're
regretting this."
Truett stared at him with a piercing gaze. “Why? Why can't we just live a simple and happy life?"

“If you don't become the person to manipulate things, you'll be manipulated instead." James said indifferently, “If you don't see
others as pawns, you'll end up becoming someone's pawn.
“I want to lead a simple and happy life too, but the world is a harsh place. Those who live that life would mostly end up miserable
instead."
Truett had a conflicted look on his face. “You and my father are very much alike. No wonder you two had no trouble working
together."
James glanced at him. “Your father was trying to do what was best for you. If you weren't Yegor's son, you might not have been
able to achieve so much despite being extremely talented. You might have even been exterminated a long time ago."
“You must think that I'm pretty hopeless. Perhaps others think the same way about me too." Truett slowly shook his head.
“They might respect or fear me on the surface. However, they probably think that I am just a good-for- nothing who's gotten so
far because of my father."
With his arms crossed, James merely listened to Truett silently.
The truth was always harsh.
