"I've always been curious to know the reason why you insist on staying at the military camp. I wonder if you are still hiding something from me," Isis said suspiciously while trying to guess Rocky's intention of staying at the military camp.
"Am I?" Rocky said innocently.
"Forget it. You are never honest with me anyway," Isis said coldly. "Well, this place will be turned to a logistics camp, and since you want to stay here now, I name you the captain of the transportation squad of the logistics camp. You will be in charge of delivering army provisions. I heard from Marin that you used to be a captain. I believe you will be worthy of this position," she continued.
Rocky narrowed his eyes. He didn't want to be the captain, but it now seemed that he had no other choice, otherwise he would have no reason to stay at the military camp. If so, he couldn't carry out a lot of things.
"I also heard that you are good at curing spirit-manipulated beasts. So you can serve as a military vet too. I will send the injured spirit-manipulated beasts to you," Isis said slyly, determined to exploit Rocky to the maximum.
"Do you want me to work around the clock?" Rocky asked unhappily.
"You can say no!" Isis said with an obvious smile in her eyes. She had totally understood Rocky now, and knew that Rocky would agree to do whatever she asked.
"Deputy Commander in Chief, it seems that I have no choice but to accept that," Rocky said disdainfully with a snort.
"I am glad to hear that. So work hard!" Isis said with a tone of command, pretending not to notice Rocky's irony at all.
"If you don't have anything else, I should leave." Rocky stood up and nodded at Isis before turning around to leave.
The moment he stepped out of the camp, Rocky saw Marin standing outside the camp. It seemed that she had been waiting there for a while.
"Has the Deputy Commander in Chief told you everything?" Marin asked Rocky directly.
"It looks like I fell into the trap she had set for me," Rocky said with a bitter smile. He had expected Isis would say something like sending him to the front line, which he knew was a lie. Isis had had everything planned out. But he had no choice but to listen to her. Although he had known it was a trap, he had to fall for it.
But of course, Rocky knew what he was doing. Once he reached the Heavenly Stage, he wouldn't have to worry about moving home anymore. This was because spirit manipulators who reached the Heavenly Stage were able to open the Magic Spiritual Space which could accommodate everything. So by that time, he could do whatever he wanted without having to consider her feelings. But now, not listening to her was not an option.
"The Deputy Commander in Chief did that for your benefit. Do you really think you can escape from the Commander in Chief so easily without her help?" Marin said seriously.
"Okay, then! I would like to send my thanks to you and the Deputy Commander in Chief," Rocky said with a vicious smile before leaving.
At the same time, a soldier went into the camp of the commander on the border of the Timber Deity Empire holding a letter in his hand.
"Your Highness, there is a new message," the soldier said while presenting the letter to the princess.
Alyssa took the letter and gestured for the soldier to leave.
"Is Isis, daughter of Lance, the leader this time?" A hint of malicious calculation flashed across Alyssa's eyes upon finishing reading the letter.
"We used to prevail against the Crimson Dragon Group, but that was before Isis was in charge of the army. After she became the leader, the Crimson Dragon Group managed to win us. It seems that Isis is good at military tactics."
