They did not come out often as they were usually guarding the president by his side which was their sworn duty.
Contrary to what the Four Royal Guards were anticipating, the four heads did not intend to declare war.
Instead, they were merely demanding that the president hand over the dominion over the martial arts scene in the
country.
By doing so, the military force of the entire nation would be in the hands of the four elders.
At that point, the government would be acting as a puppet with its strings being pulled by Four Hidden Sects.
“Emerald Dragon,” Jaime said coldly. “We would like to speak with the president regarding some urgent matters.
Kindly remove yourself from our path. The consequences which will arise from our failure of seeing the president
today is more than what you can afford to bear.”
Emerald Dragon did not budge.
Everybody and their mother knows that Jaime intends on taking over the country today. I am not going to believe a
single word out of his mouth.

“Yes, sir!” they shouted in response. The combined might of their voices echoed through the mountains in the
distance.
“The time to defend Eurasia is now. Nothing is more honorable than to die for our beloved Eurasia. Fight for your
country!”
“Yes, sir!” the guards replied as they bristled with pride.
Jaime sighed. “Emerald Dragon, why pick a losing battle? You know that you are outnumbered and outmatched. I
will give you one last chance. Allow us to pass and I assure you that I will see to your training and guarantee
massive progress.”
Emerald Dragon drew Emerald Scythe in response. It glittered in the sunlight like the eyes of an enraged serpent.
“Kill whoever attempts to force his way into the president's residence!” he shouted, raising his weapon in the air.
“You have picked the wrong choice today,” Jaime said with an exasperated shake of his head. “Enough chatter. Kill
them all who stand in our way!”
At the battle cry, the combined forces of Four Hidden Sects swarmed around the presidential residence to meet the
onslaught of the president's forces.
The Four Royal Guards themselves prepared to take on the four heads.
Though the guards of the city were numerous and were deemed unusually talented fighters by the outside world,
they were still no match for the hundreds of King Class warriors and thousands of Archdukes that made up the
force of the Four Hidden Sects.
In the face of overwhelming odds, the guards fought bravely but still fell in droves.
At the sight of the city's failing defense, the Four Royal Guards were forced to back away under the relentless
pressure of the four heads and their men.
Though they were similarly matched against the four heads, the Four Royal Guards were kept busy in defending the
city walls on top of the fierce assault upon their bodies by the four heads.
Despite it all, the determination of the Four Royal Guards did not falter in the slightest as they were aware that they
were their nation's last line of defense.

As the battle raged on, Jaime continued to persuade Emerald Dragon to surrender.
“Emerald Dragon, there's no need for any more lives to be wasted. Tell your men to lay down their arms. You will be
branded as heroes once we gain control of the nation's military force. Otherwise, you will be branded as traitors of
the nation. Even after your death, your reputation will be trodden and spat on by mere peasants! This will be your
last chance to do so.”
In response, Emerald Dragon spat a mouthful of blood onto Jaime's face.
“Attempt to extort a guard is punishable by death! I will have your heads!”
Jaime lost his temper. “You'll pay for this!”
Incensed by the four heads, the advance team was sent into a frenzy. Soon, the Four Royal Guards and the city
guards found the pressure they were facing to be increasing.
At this rate, the president's residence will collapse before the night is over!
Suddenly, Jaime's phone rang.
He glanced at the number to discover that it was the man he had left behind to guard the Carter residence.
“You three,” he snarled with a ferocious swipe toward Emerald Dragon which forced him backward. “Keep him at
bay for a moment.”
Though Jaime stepped out of the fight, the Four Royal Guards did not find the battle to be any easier.
