2024-12-01 16:31:24The luxurious black SUV glided smoothly down the road leading to Zander’s main mansion, situated on the outskirts of the city.
The mansion was surrounded by the sprawling grounds of the Rhett Military Academy, a training facility renowned not only for its stringent discipline but also for producing the finest soldiers. This academy was Zander’s private enterprise, a strategic investment designed to secure loyalty and military strength firmly under his control. In the backseat, Zander sat silently, his cold gaze piercing through the tinted window. Outside, hundreds of soldiers were rigorously training—engaging in shooting drills, hand-to-hand combat, and war simulations. Every activity was conducted under the watchful eyes of stern instructors. As the SUV approached the academy's main gate, the atmosphere shifted dramatically. A tall, broad-shouldered commander in full green uniform stood near the guard post. Spotting the approaching vehicle, he barked a sharp order to the soldiers in training. "Commander Zander has arrived!" the commander shouted, his booming voice echoing across the grounds. Instantly, the soldiers sprang into action. Training ceased, and they hurried to form ranks. The synchronized thud of boots striking the ground created a rhythmic sound that exuded perfect discipline. Their lines were straight, their postures rigid, and not a single head moved out of place. The SUV came to a halt before the main formation. Jacky, Zander’s aide, stepped out first and briskly walked to open the rear door. Zander emerged, his imposing figure radiating natural authority. Clad in an all-black suit, he stood out starkly against the sea of green uniforms. Though no command to speak had been issued, the soldiers’ eyes shone with barely concealed admiration. Zander strode purposefully toward his opulent mansion. The echo of his footsteps on the immaculate marble floors reverberated through the grand entrance hall. Automatic lights flickered on, illuminating a modern yet understatedly elegant space. In the center of the room floated a large holographic television, displaying the day’s headlines. "Breaking news: The second grandson of the Xanta family, Ganza Xanta, has become the center of attention following an incident at their family’s celebration party. Witnesses report that Ganza assaulted a guest whose identity remains undisclosed." "Analysts suggest this scandal could significantly damage the Xanta family’s reputation, particularly given their status as a leading force in business and politics." Zander sank into a black leather sofa, his sharp eyes fixed on the hologram with a look of satisfaction. Jacky stood beside him, arms crossed, grinning. “You’re a genius, Young Master." Jacky said, glancing at Zander. “In a single move, you’ve made the Xanta family look utterly chaotic. This scandal will haunt them for a long time.” Zander leaned back, his hand casually resting on his chin. A notification sounded from Zander’s sleek, high-tech communication device, its soft blue glow indicating an incoming call. The name of the caller flashed: Joseph Guezz. Answering the call, Zander was greeted by the holographic projection of a middle-aged man with a commanding presence—Joseph Guezz, dressed in a sharp gray suit. His face reflected a mixture of concern and authority. “Was the news about the Xanta family your doing?” Joseph asked directly, his voice heavy with tension. Zander offered a faint, confident smile, controlled yet brimming with arrogance. “Of course. Just wait for what comes next.” Joseph sighed deeply, his piercing gaze fixed on his son. “Zander, stop this. I don’t want anything bad to happen to you, like what happened to your mother seven years ago.” At the mention of his mother, Zander’s smile faded. His expression turned icy, his eyes losing their amused gleam and sharpening into a cold, vengeful glare. Leaning forward, he locked his gaze onto the hologram of his father. “Dad,” Zander said, his voice lower but charged with restrained emotion, “I’m not your teenage son anymore. I’ve grown. I know exactly what I’m doing, and I know how to finish this. Don’t try to stop me.” Joseph remained silent for a moment, his face hardening. Before he could respond, Zander pressed a button, ending the call abruptly.

In the grand kitchen of Zander's mansion... The aroma of cooking wafted through the air, mingling with the clinking of pans and the hushed murmurs of conversation. In a quiet corner of the room, Leo, the new servant, stood awkwardly watching an older man with a stern face—Marcus—who was overseeing the kitchen with a sharp, discerning gaze. Leo glanced left and right, ensuring no one was too close to overhear. He swallowed hard, summoning his courage, and approached Marcus, who was meticulously chopping vegetables with the precision of an artist. “Mr. Marcus...” Leo’s voice was barely audible above the kitchen’s clamor. Marcus didn’t look up, only slightly raising an eyebrow. “What is it?” Leo hesitated for a moment, but the curiosity that had been gnawing at him refused to be silenced. “I heard... there was once a great war between the Guezz family and the Xanta family. Is that true?” Marcus’s hand froze mid-chop. The knife he had been using was slowly placed down on the

Darren exhaled deeply, trying to remain calm. He knew his father was nearly impossible to reason with when angry. “Dad…” Darren began, his voice firm but respectful. “I can’t speak directly to Mr. Death. In fact, I’ve never even met him.” Mr. Hammo narrowed his eyes, displeased with the answer. “What do you mean? You’re my eldest son! You’re responsible for this family’s safety!” “Mr. Death isn’t someone who can be contacted carelessly,” Darren replied. “Our partnership with V-Tech happened through his mediation, but Mr. Dom was the one who handled everything.” Mr. Hammo frowned, confusion and anger battling on his face. “So, what are you saying? That we should beg Dom for help now?” “That’s the issue,” Darren continued. “Asking for help through Mr. Dom could strain the business relationship we’ve built. If we appear desperate or reckless, he might pull out. You know how crucial our relationship with Dom is for the family’s business, Dad.” Mr. Hammo stepped closer, his eye

In the Morning, at the Golf Course... The expansive golf course stretched under the warm morning sun. The neatly trimmed green grass and the soft breeze carried the fresh scent of earth. Zander stood confidently, dressed in a sleek black polo shirt and crisp white pants. In his hands was an expensive-looking golf club. Beside him, Jacky stood casually, wearing a baseball cap. Zander took his position, his sharp eyes fixed on the golf ball resting on the tee. With a precise swing, his club struck the ball, sending it flying far into the distance and landing perfectly in the hole. “Nice shot, Young Master!" Jacky exclaimed in admiration. Zander offered a faint smile. “Golf is like warfare strategy. It’s not about power—it’s about precision.” Jacky nodded with a grin. “No wonder you always win.” Zander prepared another ball. But before he could take his swing, a faint buzzing sound filled the air. A small black drone emerged from behind the trees, flying low over

Darren didn’t answer his friend’s question. His phone rang again—another unknown number. Hesitant, Darren picked up. "Finally, you answered," a cold, heavy voice spoke from the other end, intimidating in its tone. "I’ve been trying to reach you, but you kept ignoring my calls." Darren recognized the voice immediately. It is Huros—the notorious crime boss known throughout Venua as a deadly shadow. His reputation in illegal dealings was unshakable. Darren sighed, realizing he hadn’t noticed Huros’ repeated attempts to contact him because he’d been partying. "Yesterday, you hired me to kill someona. I used my best method—the lethal drone." "Every target I’ve ever gone after has always ended up dead. But...He survived," Huros reported, his voice sharp and blunt. "I paid you $20 million, Huros. And what’s the result? He’s still alive! You’re incompetent!" Darren snapped, his anger spilling over. "Watch your mouth!" Huros replied coolly, his voice now edged with a dangerous thr
I AM COMMANDER ZANDER: Your Good Villain 0009-Give Me A Job
Dom began to explain, “After Mr. Xanta’s death, the position of head of the family remained vacant. During his lifetime, he had never named an heir to the family, so his wife—Madam Vioga Ode—temporarily assumed leadership of the family. However, it didn’t last long.” “Before her death, Madam Vioga declared in her will that the next head of the Xanta family would be Biella.” Jacky raised an eyebrow. “Why Biella? Isn’t the heir usually the eldest son or a male descendant?” “True,” Dom nodded. “However, in this case, Madam Vioga didn’t see any leadership potential in her three sons—Hammo, Galio, and Carrez. Moreover, the three of them have a terrible reputation.” “The public has long rumored them to be men who indulge in same-sex relationships, which is still taboo and illegal in Venua. Additionally, there is evidence suggesting their involvement in satanic rituals.” Zander slightly raised his head, his sharp eyes focusing intently. “Is that just a rumor, or is there concrete e

The Next Day, at Net TV Headquarter... Darren strode confidently through the main entrance of the Net TV building. His tailored blue suit fit him perfectly, and his dark sunglasses added an air of authority to his presence. He paused briefly, scanning the room with a satisfied smile. However, that smile quickly turned into a smirk when he spotted a familiar figure. Zander, dressed in a gray janitor’s uniform, was mopping the floor near the entrance. His movements were steady and unhurried, seemingly indifferent to the glances from passersby. Darren approached him, dramatically removing his sunglasses, and let out a small laugh. "HAHA! So," Darren said mockingly, "after seven years in the military, you’re back here… as a janitor? How pathetic!" Zander stopped his work for a moment, meeting Darren’s gaze with a blank expression before giving him a polite nod. There was no anger, no retaliation. Darren leaned in closer, his voice dropping but still dripping with disdain. "Yo

Meanwhile, on social media, Biella Xanta’s name had once again become a hot topic. Internet users recognized her as a famous beauty influencer with over one billion followers before she vanished from the digital world two years ago. "Where is Biella Xanta? Why did she disappear so suddenly?" wrote one social media user. "She was such an inspiration to young women like me. I hope she's doing okay," wrote another. Biella was also remembered as a brilliant and accomplished young woman. Three years ago, the official Venua magazine named her the most influential young woman in her country. Her achievements in business and her efforts to inspire young women to pursue higher education were widely discussed topics. However, for the past two years, all of Biella's social media accounts had been inactive. There was no official announcement about her departure, and since then, her name had nearly disappeared from the news.*** At the Xanta Family Mansion... The grand hall of the Xanta f
I AM COMMANDER ZANDER: Your Good Villain 0012-Huros Vs Zander
Huros stood with a confident posture, his muscular frame casting a massive shadow under the streetlight. Every inch of his body showed the perfection of a man sculpted by two decades of experience as an elite soldier and martial arts trainer. His gaze was cold, radiating an unwavering belief in his own victory. He clapped his hands slowly, as if giving Zander a moment to prepare. “You know,” Huros began in a calm yet sharp tone, “I’m not just some street brawler. Twenty years in the military, internationally certified, and recognized as one of the top five fighters in the world—those aren’t titles you earn by luck.” Zander stared at him without emotion, his body relaxed yet ready, poised in a defensive stance. Huros smirked and lunged forward with incredible speed for a man of his size. His fist sliced through the air, aiming straight for Zander’s jaw. Zander tilted his head slightly, dodging the attack with minimal, efficient movement. In retaliation, Zander delivered a low kic

Biella sat in the CEO’s chair, her head lowered, her hands trembling as she read report after report filled with complaints from long-time employees of Xanta Corporation. Tears welled up in her eyes, eventually falling one by one. She couldn’t begin to imagine what her employees had endured over the past two years. Before she disappeared, the company had been running smoothly. Employees received fair benefits, opportunities for promotion were wide open, and the work environment was comfortable. But now, everything had been destroyed in the hands of Darren and Hammo. Zander, standing nearby, noticed Biella’s shoulders shaking. He knew how devastated she felt. Without a second thought, Biella stood up and threw herself into Zander’s arms. Her sobs broke against his shoulder, shaking her small, fragile body. Zander could feel Biella’s pain. His hand lifted, gently stroking her back. His anger toward Darren and Hammo burned even stronger. How could they treat this company so cruelly,
0071-At the Xanta Company
Madam Nousa stared sharply at Nora, trying to find a way to change her mind. However, Nora did not show the slightest hesitation. She stood tall, arms crossed over her chest, her eyes fixed straight on Darren, who remained silent in shock. "I've made my decision," Nora said, her voice cold and unwavering. "There’s nothing left to expect from this marriage." "Our agreement clearly stated that this marriage should be mutually beneficial. But look at your situation now, Darren. Your father failed to become governor. You're no longer the head of the Xanta family business. So tell me, what do I gain from this anymore?" Darren remained silent, his face pale and expression blank. From the beginning, he knew this marriage was nothing more than a business arrangement, but hearing Nora say it so bluntly still pierced deep. Madam Nousa glanced at her son, hoping for a reaction, but Darren simply lowered his head, as if accepting this bitter reality without resistance. "My father was suppos

A few days later, the day of the Venua governor election arrived. However, the tense political atmosphere had now shifted into a major scandal. The Xanta family’s name was once again the subject of heated discussions in the media and among the elite after shocking news about Hammo’s condition spread widely. Hammo was still lying weak in the hospital, his body paralyzed, unable to speak or move much. He was officially disqualified from the gubernatorial race. However, it was not just his physical condition that became the talk of the town—it was the reason behind his downfall. No one knew where it started, but rumors spread that Hammo had suffered severe shock after hearing the news of his same-sex lover, Voss’s, death. Darren, now the central figure of the Xanta family, felt the need to act immediately. Standing before dozens of reporters at an impromptu press conference, he firmly clarified that the rumors were untrue. "My father is not paralyzed because of the news circu

Hammo snatched the tablet from his informant's hand with a rough motion. His sharp eyes scanned the screen, but slowly, his expression changed. His pupils widened, his mouth parted slightly, and the confidence that usually radiated from his face was now replaced by a deathly pale complexion. His body stiffened instantly. His fingers, gripping the tablet tightly, began to tremble. Across the table, Darren noticed the drastic change in his father's expression. "What happened?" The informant swallowed hard before leaning in and whispering once more into Hammo’s ear, "Mr. Voss is dead, Boss… His head was delivered to the Avoja mansion as a warning." It was as if the world had stopped spinning! The fine porcelain plates and silverware on the dining table became nothing more than silent background noise. Hammo opened his mouth, but no words came out. He tried to breathe, but his chest felt tight. Voss… dead? Impossible! It couldn’t be! "How… how did he die?" Hammo’s voice trem

That morning, sunlight streamed through the large dining room windows of the Xanta family estate, illuminating a table filled with luxurious dishes.Zander sat calmly in one of the chairs, enjoying his breakfast without haste. Beside him, Biella, as elegant as ever, spread chocolate truffle jam on her toasted brioche, a delicacy favored by aristocrats.The silence in the room was not a comfortable one. Hammo stared at Zander with a cold, questioning expression. On the other side of the table, Darren also watched his father, seeking reassurance. Wasn’t Zander supposed to be dead? Hadn’t Voss guaranteed that Zander would be dragged to Avoja’s mansion and executed? Why was this man still sitting here so casually, as if nothing had happened?Hammo finally broke the silence, his voice sharp and filled with restrained anger. "How dare you come back to this house? Even stay the night? Do you think you own this place?"Zander set down his coffee cup with a composed movement and met Hamm
0067-Recall About 3 Years Ago
That night, at the luxurious Avoja mansion. In front of the towering gate, heavily guarded, Gamin stood tall, carrying a wooden box that felt heavier in his hands with each passing moment. His breath was steady, his eyes fixed straight ahead as a guard approached. "I have a message for Mr. Avoja," Gamin said, his voice calm yet firm. Without much hesitation, the guard opened the gate, allowing Gamin to step inside the grand mansion, dimly illuminated by soft lighting. Inside, Avoja was already seated in his chair, his sharp eyes scrutinizing Gamin’s every move as the man approached. With steady hands, Gamin placed the wooden box on the table before Avoja. In one swift, practiced motion, he opened the lid—revealing Voss’s severed head, frozen in death. The dried blood on his neck still bore the mark of a clean separation, a sign of an execution carried out without hesitation. Avoja showed no sign of shock. His gaze lingered on Voss’s head before shifting to Gamin. A heav

Footsteps echoed from behind. The door to the room swung open again, and three figures entered quickly. Jacky, along with two senior members of Rhett Academy, stepped inside. Their eyes immediately fell on Kai, who was still lying weakly on the floor, bound with coarse ropes. “Young Master,” Jacky said respectfully, casting a brief glance at Zander before turning his attention to Kai. “We’ll take him out for treatment.” Zander gave a slight nod, granting permission without uttering a word. The two senior members of Rhett Academy moved toward Kai, untied the ropes around his body, carefully lifted him, and carried him out. The room fell silent, with only the sound of heavy breathing and the pounding heartbeats of those kneeling before Zander echoing in the air. Zander’s gaze, as cold as ice, pierced through Gamin and Voss. He stood tall, entirely unfazed by the metallic scent of blood that saturated the atmosphere. Without much preamble, Zander spoke. His voice was low, almo
0065-He is Mr. Death
Voss held back the rage that was already blazing within him. His eyes glared at Gamin with disbelief, while his voice rang out, high-pitched and full of anger. “Gamin, what is this?! Have you lost your mind?” Voss shouted, his tone dripping with disgust. “You're actually bowing to... a YOUNG PUNK like him?!” Voss jabbed his chin in Zander's direction, his breathing heavy. Gamin furrowed his brows, his fear-filled eyes now sharpening into a glare. He strode quickly toward Voss and grabbed his collar roughly. “Listen! I know you think you’re smarter than everyone here, but this is your final warning!” Voss raised his chin defiantly. “I won’t submit, Gamin! I won’t kneel to a kid like him.” “Avoja is my boss, not Zander, and I’d rather die than give up!” Gamin’s hand flew swiftly, delivering a hard slap that echoed through the room. SLAP! Voss’s head snapped to the side. A red handprint instantly blossomed on his cheek. Before he could say a word, another slap struck the othe
0064-Forgive Me...Mr. Death
Gamin let out a low chuckle, his deep voice echoing through the room. “You’re too loyal to a man who doesn’t even care about your life.” He stepped closer to Kai, his cold eyes locked onto him. “But that doesn’t matter. In the end, I will drag Zander’s body before Avoja, whether you help me or not.” Gamin glanced at Voss, a smirk tugging at the corner of his lips. In Gamin’s mind, he could already envision the rewards that awaited him once this mission was completed. Avoja had promised him a fortune beyond imagination: a 10-hectare cannabis plantation ready to generate millions, and two sacks of cash. For Gamin, it wasn’t just about wealth—it was a ticket to a limitless life. “Just imagine,” Gamin muttered to himself. “A relaxed life without having to fight anymore, with that plantation making money every day. And those sacks of cash…” He chuckled. “One day's work, and I'll be a billionaire!” Voss, standing beside him, only smiled. Voss thought that without much effort
