The Great Commander Strikes Back Chapter 133-1
The sound of breaking glass echoed loudly in Stan's study, followed by a string of curses that broke the silence of the night. His harsh words echoed like thunder, filling every corner of the now cluttered room.The servants standing guard outside could only look down, their hands shaking. They had witnessed their master's anger many times, but never with such fury. Not a single one dared to approach, let alone go inside."Bastard!"Stan swung his arm brutally, throwing a large vase of flowers at the door. It hit the hardwood before shattering into pieces on the floor, water and flower petals splattering, creating a mess that mirrored his thoughts.His breathing was heavy, his chest rising and falling wildly. His eyes were red, full of unstoppable rage.The items in the room had been repeatedly smashed, but his anger remained smoldering, boiling inside him like an unquenchable fire.He clenched his hands so tightly that his knuckles turned white. "Damn it! Explain to me, Dany!"His ey

The city sky of Duskvale glowed in the dim light, leaving only the silhouettes of buildings looming in the distance. From the window, Harvey stood still, his hands clasped together, his eyes gazing far into the horizon. His breathing is quiet, almost inaudible.When the door to the room opened, the sound of footsteps echoed on the shiny wooden floor. Jordan entered without hesitation, his body erect, his gaze sharp. Harvey turned his head slowly, the faint smile on his face vanishing as soon as he saw who was coming.There are no words. Only silence hangs between them like a reluctant night fog. Jordan stops right in front of Harvey, his back straight, his demeanor disciplined. His voice was calm, but there was firmness in it. "Mr. Harvey, they have carried out your orders."Harvey's eyes flashed faintly, but his expression remained unreadable."Stan has been taken to the military base," Jordan continued. "Starting today, he will be conscripted."For a moment, silence reigned in the r

In a practice field on the border of Kaelvarion, the sound of a loud crash echoed out, mixed with heavy breathing. Boston's large body hit the ground with a loud thud, before quickly getting back up. Sweat dripped from his forehead, running along his temples, while his chest rose and fell rapidly.In front of him, Alex stood slightly hunched over, his hands resting on his knees as if exhausted. However, his eyes still blazed with enthusiasm, his lips bearing a faint smirk."Boston," he said, his voice sounding like someone who had just found an interesting challenge. "You're really hard to beat." He took a deep breath, then patted his thighs as if trying to soothe tired muscles. "I've been cornered a few times... You're great!"Boston's eyes narrowed slightly, considering Alex's expression. There was something in the way the young man spoke - as if the fatigue he was showing was just a trick.In fact, Alex's body remained dry, not a drop of sweat soaking his skin. Unlike Boston, whose

Allison stepped into the control room of the military base on the border of Kaelvarion. The air inside the room was noticeably cooler than outside, mixing with the hum of machinery and the clicks of keyboards being pressed by operators.She sighed softly before walking to a bench near the main console. Her movements were decisive, without any hesitation. Once seated, her hands deftly placed a communication device in her ears, a high-tech headset that clung tightly to the side of her head.A man in a neat military uniform soon approached her. The look on his face reflected both confusion and concern. “Ms. Allison, why are you here? You shouldn’t be-”His words were cut off instantly. Allison simply raised one index finger, a small but stressful gesture. Her sharp eyes glanced at the man expressionlessly, enough to make him gulp. Instantly, she took a step back, almost reflexively, as if the air around her suddenly became heavier.Ignoring him again, Allison directed her attention to th

The sound of high heels clashing with the marble floor echoed along the hallway leading to the women's bathroom. Vanessa strides gracefully, her red dress swaying slightly with her movements.Once inside the bathroom, she walked to the sink and opened the faucet, letting the cold water flow between her fingers. Her slender fingers moved slowly, washing her hands as if to erase something that was bothering her.In front of the large, gold-framed mirror, Vanessa lifted her face. Her eyes traced her reflection-checking the makeup that had lasted all night. Has it faded? Was it still perfect?She moved a little closer, adjusting the position of her earrings, making sure their sparkle remained visible from any angle. Her fingers trailed through her hair that was neatly cut in a butterfly cut, tucking it behind her ear to make the jewelry more visible.However, her movements suddenly stopped. For a moment, she stared at her reflection in silence. The figure of the man from earlier came back

Harvey got up instantly, his chair squeaking as it was pushed back. He caught a glimpse of something at the far end of the room, but more than that, his instincts kicked in. Another crash, louder this time-something had happened.Then, a woman's body was thrown into the air. Time seemed to slow down as Harvey moved quickly, his hand outstretched, catching the figure before her body hit the floor. The pounding on his arm was strong, but he managed to hold the woman's weight.For a moment, Harvey stared at her face. Her long black hair was in disarray, her thin lips were slightly parted in pain, and the red dress she was wearing looked rumpled from the fight that had just taken place. Vanessa Reid.Harvey's eyes widened. “This woman... What happened to her?” he wondered.In his arms, Vanessa winced, her hands pressing shakily against her stomach. Her breathing was labored, but as soon as her eyes opened and she realized where they were, her expression instantly changed.“Let go!” her vo

"You must be pretending to help me!" Vanessa stared at Harvey with piercing eyes, her breath catching. Even though she had just seen him take out her kidnappers with ease, she still did not lower her guard.Slowly, she backed away. Her movements faltered, her body was unsteady-her injured leg forced her steps to falter. But that didn't stop her.Her hand was raised, her fingers tightly gripping the pepper spray. When Harvey steps closer, she raises it, ready to spray him in the face.Harvey halts his steps. Letting out a long breath. "I'm just trying to help."Vanessa clucked her tongue, her jaw hardening. "Bullshit," she hissed, her eyes narrowed with suspicion. "You're going to take me away soon, aren't you? You're going to kidnap me and do bad things to me."Her hands trembled slightly, but the spray remained firmly in her grasp. Harvey just stared at her silently. Harvey only slightly furrowed his brow, understanding the panic that surrounded the woman.When his hand moved slightl

"What does that mean?" asked Vanessa, her eyebrows rising high, creating a fine frown on her forehead.Harvey didn't answer right away. His gaze fell on Vanessa's arm, probing yet calm. Although the long-sleeved shirt covered her skin, his eyes seemed to pierce through the layers of fabric-observing the invisible details.Harvey let out a smile that was so thin, it was almost imperceptible. "You have a lot of potential," he said calmly but confidently. His gaze remained locked on Vanessa's eyes, as if trying to convey something deeper than words.Vanessa swallowed. Her heart fluttered, not out of fear, but because she felt something new-recognition. Beneath the defensiveness and the wounds that had not fully healed, this man's words pierced her outer layers and touched a side that had long been buried: trust in herself.With slow, non-threatening steps, Harvey approached. His every movement was controlled, like someone who never rushed because he knew his own strength. "What you'll le

The four men on the roof glanced at each other, their expressions tense. Foreheads furrowed, jaws hardened. Harvey's figure standing below-with blood dripping from his sides and an expressionless face-sent a warning louder than a shout.One of them clenched a fist, trying to subdue the subtle trembling in the fingertips. "Don't let your guard down," he hissed. "The wound is severe, but the body..." He swallowed. "Not the body of an ordinary person."The other three nodded slowly. Doubt crept in behind their heavy breathing. But there was no turning back. Not now.They knew: stepping down meant battle. But staying up meant more than cowardice-it meant failing the mission.They hadn't expected to encounter someone like Harvey.One of them - with short hair and a tattooed jaw - grinned faintly. A smile that was more like a nervous twitch. "Do you remember what happened a few weeks ago?" he whispered hoarsely. "The one that tried to get close to Miss Vanessa. His fingers were crushed... e
Harvey 150-1
"This situation is quite familiar, isn't it?" Harvey glanced briefly at Vanessa, his eyes remaining alert at the threat before them. His calm voice implied something-a reminder of a not-so-distant past.Vanessa frowned, her eyebrows rising slightly, a puzzled expression on her beautiful face. "Familiar?" she asked in an innocent tone, as if trying to ignore the reality that was beginning to catch up with them.Harvey moved one foot forward, his body slightly lowered into a defensive position, ready for the worst. His breathing was still regular, but his shoulders were tense."Why are they after you? It is also happened in the first time we met," he asked without taking his eyes off the big men across the street.Quietly, Vanessa shook her head. Her smile was faint, but her eyes did not share it. "A lot of people are after me, Harvey. The entertainment world is full of fanatics." She took a quick breath. "I thought... they were just one of them."But Harvey could catch the faintest not

“What do you think I am, Harvey?” says Vanessa as she bends one leg lightly, one hand perched casually on her waist. Her smile is curved, confident, like someone who knows all the attention is always on her. “I'm a movie star and host at Kaelvarion.”Harvey frowned. From the way Vanessa straightened her body, chin slightly raised, and shoulders unmoving under people's gazes, she didn't need to be given a stage to shine.“Yes?” he replied softly, half astonished, half amazed.Vanessa cast a quick glance at the clothing store behind them. Behind the glass display cases, the customers were pretending to be busy choosing clothes, but their eyes kept stealing glances, as if they didn't want to miss a second of the drama happening outside.Vanessa's eyes narrowed, her gaze now frozen. The warmth that had enveloped her voice earlier disappeared, replaced by a piercing cold like an uninvited winter wind. “It's not the first time or twice I've met someone who can stab me in the back,” she sai

"I-I..." Susan's voice was hoarse. "Mr. Fred... I didn't mean-"Before she could finish her sentence, Vanessa's voice cut in. Cold. Firm. "Your salesgirl made a fatal mistake."The words were spoken without raising her voice, but each syllable echoed like the clink of a hammer in the suddenly silent room. The people around held their breath, the atmosphere tense. Fred turned to Susan, then back to Vanessa - her face had paled, as if she knew a big storm was about to hit her shop.The manager's eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe what he had just heard. "I'm sorry, what exactly happened, Miss Vanessa?" his voice was low, almost trembling.Vanessa didn't answer immediately. She lifted the cell phone in her hand slowly - the movement alone was enough to shake things up. The screen faced Fred, displaying a row of secretly snapped photos. Vanessa's gaze was piercing, sharp like cracked glass about to shatter."Your salesgirl is playing the role of paparazzi in this shop," she said cold
Harvey 148-1
Vanessa furrowed her brows. "Photos?" she asked quietly, but her tone was stressed.She turns quickly to Harvey, searching for an explanation with her eyes. But Harvey remains calm, like a stone statue who knows the storm is coming - and he's ready for it.Harvey's gaze never leaves Susan. His eyes are sharp and frozen, like an eagle that has locked onto its prey. His cold aura made the air around them feel tense.Susan, who had been so loud, now seemed to lose her breath. Her throat moved up and down as she gulped. The hand holding her cell phone began to sweat. Her fingers trembled slightly, trying to keep herself from panicking.Vanessa leered at her. "What do you mean about photos?" This time her tone was darker, almost a warning tone.Susan fell silent. Her lips parted, but no sound came out. Her eyes moved nervously, looking for an excuse, an opening to escape, or even just air."Don't pretend to know nothing," Harvey's voice was quiet but firm, still without looking away. "You
Chapter 147
The tip of Harvey's smile was still hanging on his face when Susan's gaze changed - just for a moment, before settling back down. But for Harvey, who was used to reading gestures like an open book, that was enough. He saw how Susan's shoulders tensed slightly, and her fingers gripped the end of the cell phone too tightly."What do you mean, sir?" asked Susan in a sweet voice that was no longer as elegant as before. Her eyeballs were piercing, trying to find an opening, confirming whether Harvey really knew... or was just guessing.Harvey just stared at the clothes on the hanger, his fingers gently touching the fabric, as if he didn't care. "Only people with bad intentions disguise themselves as walls," he muttered softly. "And only cunning people need proof of stealth."He turned around slowly, finally facing her directly. Her eyes were calm, but they contained something that made the air between them harden-like the air before a heavy rain.Susan tried to chuckle, but it sounded dry.

"Mr. Harvey-" Vanessa turned her head with a bright smile, like a morning glow through the fog. However, her steps were halted when Harvey raised one hand, palm facing his chest.His smile was thin, barely visible, but enough to show his typical cold manners. "Call me Harvey," he said calmly. His voice was soft, but firm, like the tone of a man who had long been accustomed to formality, but never really enjoyed it."After all, you are a big star, Ms. Vanessa. It would be strange if you were the one to call me 'Mr.'."Vanessa frowned, sweet but amused. Her hands folded lightly on her chest, one of her fingers rose, tapping lightly on the corner of her pink lips. Her gaze seemed to be considering something."Hmmm... Then," she said as she tilted her head slightly to the right, "We agree not to use formal language. Agreed?"Her eyes looked at Harvey like she was challenging, but more playfully than seriously. The atmosphere becomes a little warmer - as if two polar opposites are trying t

Harvey stepped out of the apartment, letting the afternoon light greet his face. Rainvale's air smells of warm asphalt and coffee from the small shops lining the sidewalks. The sky casts an orange tinge onto the windows of the tall buildings, creating a glaring yet beautiful reflection.The quick steps of people crowded around him-uniformed clerks, young men with sling bags, couriers with helmets still on their heads. No one notices Harvey. And Harvey has no intention of revealing himself.He walks slowly, letting the heels of his shoes make light contact with the surface of the busy street. His eyes traced the passing faces-focused eyes, deft hands holding a document, a cell phone, or a hot cup of coffee.Unconsciously, a faint smile appeared on his lips. "They don't waste time," he murmured softly, almost as if talking to her own reflection. "Just like us... on the battlefield."Harvey's steps led him to the city's shopping center-a district of tall, glass-fronted buildings, storefr

Harvey tilted his head slightly, like an eagle assessing its prey from a distance. His gaze is sharp, yet his face remains calm, almost lifeless. He didn't speak, just let the silence bind Jacob tighter.Jacob's small movements didn't go unnoticed-the way the man crossed his fingers near his knees, the way his breath faltered before coming out slowly. The pressure was real."Tell me," Harvey said softly, almost a gentle command that left no room for refusal.Jacob lowered his head slightly, as if summoning courage from the remnants of his breath. "We found... something," he said quietly. "A strange signal. Very alien. The source is from the border-we think it's Jorania."Harvey let out a long breath, then slowly leaned back against the couch. His movements were calm, but there was a faint note of boredom at the edge of his voice. "After Daso tried to play with fire by infiltrating spies, now it's Jorania's turn to stir up trouble."Jacob turned his head quickly, as if jolted by a fact
