The Almighty Dragon General novel Chapter 6699

James remained silent after listening to what Morgott said.

Behind him, Herodias and Yegor exchanged a glance. Both of them were frowning slightly.

If James were to agree to cooperate with Morgott, the two of them would make an indestructible team.

Even though they were both Ninth Xaeclon Rank cultivators who possessed the Tirta Power, Yegor and Herodias were still no match for the pair.

Still, the couple believed that James would not do that. That was because James was very different from Morgott, especially in terms of his personality.

The Yin governor, his wife, would always be James’ first priority. She meant the world to him. Moreover, they just had another kid. The child’s presence would also give James courage and a sense of purpose.

A short while later, James glanced over his shoulder at Yegor and Herodias, who were staring at him.

Then, he turned his eyes to Thea, who was still lying on her back while levitating mid-air.

There was a flash of determination in his eyes. It seemed like James had come to a decision.

“What’s there to consider about, James?” Morgott prodded him.

“You can achieve great things instantly if you just agree to my terms. What’s holding you back?”

James drew a long breath. Then, he beamed a smile at the baby.

“You possessed my child’s body, but you said you want to be my friend. Isnʼt that too much of a loss on my side?”

Morgott paused briefly. “What do you mean?”

James replied, “Shouldnʼt you call me daddy?”

Morgott paused again for a few seconds before shouting angrily, “I see you as a friend, James! Yet, you want to be my father?! You…”

“That’s right.” James interrupted, “If you truly see me as a friend, get out of my child’s body right now. Otherwise, you’ll forever lose the chance to work with me again.”

Morgott fell silent.

“There’s no good in forcing people with different ideals to work together.” James explained, “What I want is to have a happy and peaceful life with my family.

“On the other hand, you aim to get your revenge and rule over all the worlds.

“I can’t deny that we may face the same enemies and probably even work together to solve certain issues in the early stages. However, we will have to part ways eventually.

“It might sound like a joke, but I was the one who married into my wifeʼs family. However, I donʼt think that’s a shameful thing.

“On the contrary, my wife and I share a close relationship. We are complete when we have each other.

“If I die, my wife and my friends will try everything they can to avenge my death. I would do the same for them too.

“It’s probably something you won’t ever experience. Similarly, I have no desire to experience the thrill of killing and trampling over others that you crave.”

After listening to those words, Morgott sighed in resignation. It seemed like he somehow had a better understanding of James now. “Frona, you were right. I simply don’t know what to do with this guy now.”
