Chapter 201 Following Billy's Arrangements

"Mhm!" Casey nodded and spoke, "Boss, if you want me to take over, I'll do it!"

Long before Billy ordered the Army of Bloodshadow to station in the eastern territory for three months, he had known about Billy's decision. For him, it didn't matter what the task was; what mattered was assisting Billy Gardner. Since Billy had made a decision, Casey would give it his all.

After taking a deep breath, Billy continued, "The situation in the east can't continue like this. Otherwise, similar incidents will definitely happen again."

"I understand," Casey responded with a nod, "I'll follow your arrangements, boss."

"What did Donald ask Casey about?" Azure Dragon asked.

"Azure Dragon, you don't know yet?" Judge grinned, "Casey is getting promoted!"

"What does that mean?" Azure Dragon blinked in confusion.

"The war zone wants Casey to take over the east area!" Judge grinned again.

"Really!?" Azure Dragon's eyes brightened, feeling happy for Casey, "Congratulations, Casey!"

They had been by Billy's side for years, like brothers, even closer than real brothers. Casey's elevation was a platform of opportunity, and naturally, they were pleased for their brother. Moreover, with this move, both the east and west territories would be under Billy's control, a great outcome for him as well.

"I could consider switching with you," Casey said to Azure Dragon, smiling.

Actually, for him, he truly wanted to stay by Billy's side. Otherwise, he could have taken over one of the territories three years ago.

"Casey, don't tease me like that. I'm not qualified enough." Azure Dragon laughed and said.

"Azure Dragon, you'll stay in the eastern territory for now!" Billy spoke again

"On the western side, choose one among the candidates below to be the Commander of the First Legion, and you'll be the Deputy Governor in the eastern territory!"

"Ah!?" Azure Dragon exclaimed.

Upon hearing this, Casey's eyes couldn't help but light up. If Azure Dragon could indeed become his deputy, it would greatly alleviate his pressure. Moreover, it would be a fantastic opportunity for Azure Dragon himself - being Deputy Governor of District One was a step higher than being a Legion Commander.

"Azure Dragon, this is good news. You better thank boss!" Stout chimed in.

"On behalf of the people of the eastern territory, we enthusiastically welcome Deputy Governor Azure Dragon!" Judge also expressed his happiness for Azure Dragon.

"Boss, are you serious?" Azure Dragon slightly paused before asking earnestly.

"The situation in the east is not easy, and Casey is a bit overwhelmed by himself," Billy nodded, "Plus, it's a chance for your development."

It wasn't a spur-of-the-moment decision. Billy had conceived this idea back in the capital a while ago.

Azure Dragon was capable of leading a legion, but in terms of coordinating the overall situation, he was still a bit green. Letting him train in the role of Deputy Governor for a while would benefit his future. Additionally, the current situation in the east was much more complicated than the west, which would enhance his comprehensive capabilities.

"Boss, what about Roderick Chasey? How does he fit in if I come?" Azure Dragon inquired once more.

"You don't have to worry about him, I've discussed it with him before." Billy picked up a tea cup and took a sip.

"His family is in the capital. Originally, he wanted to return there long ago, but Jake Hanson had an accident. If he left too, it wouldn't be appropriate. So, he's been waiting for the new Governor to take over. I've talked to him and asked him to continue in this position for another two or three months, until both you and Casey are familiar. Afterward, he can return to the capital."

"Understood!" Azure Dragon nodded and then solemnly stated, "I'll follow all of your arrangements. Wherever you want me to go, I'll go."

"Good!" Billy nodded as he looked at Casey and Azure Dragon. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

"Now that you've agreed, go all out. You have three months to turn around the situation in the east."

"Besides the ten thousand SHADOWers Azure Dragon brought, if manpower is insufficient, you can bring in some reinforcements from the west."

"Please rest assured, boss. We won't let you down!" Both Casey and Azure Dragon responded simultaneously.

After setting down his tea cup, Billy continued, looking at Casey.

"The official appointment might take a few more days to come through. Use these days to your advantage and try to make a breakthrough before taking office."

"Understood!" A fervent light flashed in Casey's eyes upon hearing this.

...

One morning, Billy received a call from Derek, saying he had something to discuss. Hanging up the phone, Billy drove to Derek's office.

Half an hour later, Billy was sitting on the couch in Derek's office.

"Mr Gardner, try this tea. It's just made from tea leaves of Mother Tree Da Hong Pao. It tastes quite good." Derek poured a cup of tea for Billy.

"You've called me here just for a cup of tea?" Billy took a sip from the cup, finding the taste excellent.

"No!" Derek shook his head. "Boss, I might have to return to Enssea first, so I came to ask for your opinion."

"Return to Enssea? What happened?" Billy raised an eyebrow.

According to what Derek had said earlier, he was supposed to stay in Ozin City for about half a year, until Ozin Tower was running smoothly before returning to Enssea.

Now, it seemed like the timing for Derek's return wasn't ideal.

"The major clans in Enssea have made a move against World Group." Derek took a sip of his own tea.

"Oh?" Billy's interest was piqued.

"Local powers in Enssea have always been resistant to the presence of World Group." Derek paused and continued, "One or two years ago, they had sent people to approach me, asking me to align with them. I ignored them."

"Since then, they've been pressuring World Group, but their actions weren't too significant. Because World Group was strong, their efforts yielded minimal results."

"However, recently, for some reason, they've begun a comprehensive offensive to completely absorb World Group. They're attacking on all fronts, including the capital market and the various industry chains."

"Have you looked into the reasons behind it?" Billy inquired after a brief thought.

"We've arranged an investigation, but we don't have results yet." Derek shook his head. "But it's likely related to the Doman family."

"The Doman family, one of the major clans?" Billy squinted.

Within the country of Glavale, there were eleven major clans, divided into two categories, Heaven- ranked and Earth-ranked. Six Heaven-ranked clans were all located in the capital, with the Leonard family being one of them. The five Earth-ranked families were situated in the southeast, northwest, southwest, and central districts. In the eastern territory, it was the Doman family from Enssea.
