Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master novel Chapter 635

As Rocky was leading the Crimson Dragon Army towards the border of the Timber Deity Empire, the mention of his name once again caused a stir in the Palace City. Even the royal family of the Holy Dragon Empire caught wind of it. Of course, this was all because of his marriage to Isis, as well as his appointment as Commander in Chief in the Crimson Dragon Army.

Additionally, Rocky had just saved Evian City from the Timber Deity Empire, miraculously defeating their thirty thousand strong troops. This, in addition to his sudden marriage and promotion, was absolutely unheard of. In a short period of time, some nobody named had become the talk of the Palace City.

In fact, Rocky was possibly the most famous man in the Holy Dragon Empire right now! The mere fact that he married Isis was enough to stun the royal family.

Ever since she was young, Isis had been known to be the prodigy of the Holy Dragon Empire, thanks to her outstanding talent. In addition to her extraordinary skill as a spirit manipulator, she had grown to become a fine young woman who had mastery of military strategy and tactics. Isis was so impressive that she was deemed the most outstanding woman in the empire. She had been offered multiple arranged marriages by the emperor, but Lance had declined these. Knowing that Lance had only one daughter, the emperor never forced these marriages.

Isis was also admired by the children of the royal family and the children of the famous clans in the Holy Dragon Empire. Even so, no one in particular seemed to impress her.

But now, Isis suddenly married some nobody! Understandably, this made many people feel inconsolably jealous. Everyone wanted to know just who this "Rocky" was. How did he manage to win over Isis' heart in such a short amount of time?

However, what really surprised the emperor was not the marriage of Rocky and Isis, but the fact that Lance appointed Rocky as Commander in Chief of the Crimson Dragon Army. Usually, it wasn't so big a deal if someone was appointed as Commander in Chief, but since Rocky was some unknown character, the sequence of events were utterly unbelievable.

Additionally, the Crimson Dragon Army was already preparing for their decisive battle with the Timber Deity Empire. This meant Lance should've personally led the battle, but he handed over such an important task to Rocky. This completely baffled the emperor.

Although a field commander had the right to make decisions that went against even the emperor's orders as war was afoot, he was a bit concerned that Lance's decisions were too rash.

Not only was the emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire dubious, but many military officers and even the royal family were doubtful about Lance's decision. On the other hand, some people were just thriving off of this hot gossip. First, this Rocky person saved Evian City; then, he married Isis and was promoted! If the Crimson Dragon Army was defeated this time, Lance and his Crimson Dragon Group would be in big trouble.

Meanwhile, a discussion was going on in Alston's bedroom in the Palace City.

"Who on earth is Rocky, Priest Dean? How did he manage to marry Lance's daughter and be appointed as Commander in Chief by him?" Alston scratched his chin as he pondered aloud, Priest Dean sitting beside him. He had a bad feeling about this.

"I don't know, but I'm sure that Rocky is definitely not from a noble clan or the royal family. But what's strange is that Lance could not have married his daughter to a nobody. Furthermore, with her talents and accolades, there's no way Isis would fall for some ordinary man. So, what makes Rocky so special?" Priest Dean also felt that everything that was happening was inconceivable.

"Send someone to the Gehenna Border right away to find out Rocky's background," Alston ordered after a moment's hesitation.

"What are you worried about, Your Royal Highness?" Priest Dean asked pointedly, as though he had read Alston's mind.
