Jack Hughes did not sleep long that night.

The reason was he had to report his safety to Mr. Ward. Moreover, the sound of the wind wailing outside in the freezing Northern Territories was not ideal for him to sleep.

With a fireplace burning nicely in the room, alongside a heater, the room was not cold at all.

However, the wind wailing in the middle of the night made it an ordeal for anyone to get some sleep.

Moreover, horns and gongs sounded occasionally inside the "Thegiant City". There were also noises of troopers in armor patrolling the place.

The entire Dragon Cavalry strictly followed the protocols from ancient armies.

Jack, who had newly arrived in the "Thegiant City", was not used to his new lifestyle.

He was silent for the whole night.

Jack was woken up by the noise of an army drilling in five in the morning.

The sun had not risen by then, the whole place was still covered in darkness.

"Is this why the Dragon Cavalry conquered the border of the Northern Territories?"

Jack rubbed his nose and chuckled. However, he was excited for the coming three months of his life in the Dragon Cavalry, as he would never back down from a harsh experience.

He had been treating himself harshly for his entire life. He was certain that he could only be in a better place if he treated himself harshly.

This aspect of Jack fitted perfectly with the Dragon Cavalry.

If he spent three months just hiding in the Dragon Cavalry, it would be a colossal waste of time for him.

Three months were not long, but they were not short, either. Three months were long enough for him to make a lot of drastic changes.

Dedicating three month's time into training was the best choice for Jack.

As he wasn't drafted into duties yet, he was not keen on joining the troopers in drilling.

Jack recalled that Zenith Harol told him about a surprise, so he took out his phone and started searching for online news.

All he found was articles after articles of boring news, his so-called surprise was nowhere to be found.

However, he trusted in Zenith's words on a surprise, so he kept on refreshing the news feed when all of a sudden.

A newly published news article caught Jack's attention.

The words that made up the title of the article were striking to his eyes.

When all of the words were put together, they became Jack's promised...surprise.

The article was the headline and reported about an incident that happened overseas. The content was, the Sunder Cathedral was bombarded by an airstrike during midnight!

The simple title was able to capture Jack's interests and made him extremely happy.

When he started learning about the Bloody Angel group from Brent and his associates, he remembered hearing from Brent that the headquarters of the Bloody Angel was in the Sunder Cathedral. Well, if he recalled correctly. This news was a massive surprise for Jack!

He started working things out in his mind immediately.

He rubbed his nose and muttered, "Zenith told me about the surprise, then the Sunder Cathedral was bombarded by jets, don't tell me...Zenith sent out jets in the middle of the night and bombarded the place? A short while had passed.

Jack said while laughing, "If it really played out that way, then I assume that the bastard of a fighter jet that intercepted me yesterday was sent by the Bloody Angel."

In the blink of an eye, everything was clear to him.

For Jack, it was the only way to explain everything logically.

Thanks to Zenith, Jack really was surprised by the news.

He pressed the article to read more about the incident.

However, he was disappointed that the article did not go into more details other than the fact that the Sunder Cathedral was bombarded.

"As expected of Zenith."

Jack laughed uncontrollably. While the article did not provide more information to Jack, the news of the bombardment was enough to satisfy him for the meantime.

The Bloody Angel group being bombed was nothing but a small loss in a materialistic point of view, the larger matter was the fact that the bombardment also bombed the prestige and pride of the group.

A group that could shift the world on their own, with immense influence and power over their territories.

It was no doubt that their prestige and pride were held to a very high degree.

However, Zenith merrily turned the Sunder Cathedral into a pile of rubble overnight on a whim. This extremely ballsy move acted like a massive slap to their face. If that wasn't enough, Zenith basically stomped on their already swollen face into the mud, and inviting spectators from around the world to take a look at their pitiful state!

This kind of moves could never be done so cleanly by other organizations in the world.

Only Zenith, with his absolutely unmatched achievements and influence, could pull of such dominating actions.

Other than that, Jack guessed that even if the leader of the Bloody Angel group knew who was behind the bombardment, they definitely would not dare to call Zenith out for it, and would rather swallow their pride instead.

If they didn't...the Sunder Cathedral wouldn't be the only place being forcefully leveled by Zenith's Re-landscaping Service. owns this text.

Zenith would lead his Dragon Cavalry to trample Bloody Angel.

"Knock knock," someone was knocking on the door.

"Come in," said Jack while he recollected himself.

The door was pushed open and Zenith walked in, his shoulders still carrying some snow.

"You're up this early, eh? I thought that you won't be used to the daily life in the Dragon Cavalry that quickly."

Jack lifted his phone and waved it around. He said while smiling, "Didn't you say to wake up early to look for your surprise?"

"The surprise is out already?"

Zenith smiled calmly, "It wasn't completely demolished, as I only sent three jets over. Thinking back, I am kinda regretting sending this little planes now." Jack was speechless.

Whatever Zenith did, other people with power and influence would not even dream of doing anything of that margin.

His tone...was not right!

"If they messed with people within the Dragon Cavalry, they're gonna pay for it." Zenith explained, then sat in front of the fireplace to warm his hands.

He lifted his eyebrow and told Jack, "Wait here for a little longer until the drills are finished. After that, follow me and join the new group of recruits coming in today. Then, you'll be distributed into your platoon." Jack nodded, eyed the news on his phone and thanked Zenith sincerely, "Thank you, senior."

This would be the first time that he could fight back ever since he was engaged with Bloody Trap.

When facing Bloody Trap, even his father chose to hold his horses.

With his power, he could barely fend off the attacks from Bloody Trap. He did not fight back even once all that time.

This time, he would finally be able to fight back, thanks to Zenith!

Zenith also immediately thunderstruck Bloody Angel's headquarters.

His anger in his chest was also slightly dissipated.

"No need to thank me, I am your senior after all.”

Zenith replied, focused on the ember in the fireplace, and said in a deep tone, "However, Jack, you must be prepared during your time as a diving dragon for these three months. You could lose your life any moment during this period."

"The moment I chose to be a diving dragon, I was ready." Jack said in a similarly serious tone.

"No, you probably aren't ready yet."

Zenith shook his head and said, "Since you don't know enough about the Northern Territories yet. All you know is that the Dragon Cavalry and I conquered the Northern Territories and drove out outsiders. However, conflicts and outbreaks happen almost everyday in this supposedly peaceful land, which is why Thegiant exists..."---------------
