The Great Commander Strikes Back Chapter 16
“Finally!” Andreas exclaimed, the corners of his lips lifting, forming a wide, almost cocky smile. The morning air felt fresher as he stepped out of the cold bars, his mind light as if a huge weight had just been lifted. He strode with his chest puffed out, as if this vast earth was his again. “This is how a member of the Brown family should feel!” As soon as the police station door opened, Andreas looked back with a sharp gaze full of mockery. He spat on the ground, his spittle landing with a low sound that sounded piercing amongst the silence. In a deliberately slow motion, he pointed his middle finger at the officers on duty. “You should know who you're dealing with!”The policeman on guard could only hold his breath, his eyes narrowed with seething anger. His hands were clenched at his sides, but he remained motionless. In front of him stood a man dressed in military garb, his aura stern and intimidating, a figure he clearly did not want to challenge. Acting rashly would only mak

Harvey's steps sounded soft on the busy sidewalks of Duskvale, blending in with the roar of vehicles and the boisterous chatter of pedestrians. The morning sun hits his skin, warm but not stinging. He walked slowly, his hands hidden in his pockets, his movements relaxed yet thoughtful.The cool morning air pricked his nose, carrying the scent of the streets mixed with the fresh leaves of the nearby park. Harvey took a deep breath, letting his eyes close for a moment. A small smile appeared on his lips, a smile that brought a brief sense of calm. Like this, he thought, a sense of freedom he never felt at the Smith family residence-a place full of rules and pressure.When his eyes opened again, his gaze fell far ahead, piercing through the crowd that seemed to blur in his mind. His lips formed a faint smile, almost like an inaudible whisper. “This is your hometown, Dad.”Harvey bowed his head slightly, his shoulders dropping slowly, like someone carrying an invisible burden. His breathi

Harvey's hand slid right into the can. The sound of the catch loudly split the air. It turned out to be an unopened drink. Harvey gave Don a knife-sharp glance. “What you're doing is dangerous. You might hurt someone.”The can in Harvey's hand shrivels, the metal dented by his firm grip. With a slow motion, Harvey tosses the can aside. The clinking sound of the can broke the silence between them. Slowly but with a heavy aura, Harvey turns his body around. So that he and Don were now facing each other.Don clicked his tongue. He strides over haughtily, pointing at Harvey. “This is all because of you!”His voice held a firm emotion, as if ready to ignite the fire of rage within him. “You caused this accident and now you want to run away. You want to run away from responsibility, huh?”The people who had gathered earlier now began to swarm around Harvey and Don like ants. They were looking at Harvey with piercing gazes, like they were looking at a hunted animal caught in a trap.One man

Two policemen jumped out of the patrol car, their footsteps echoing through the streets before stopping near Don who sat limply on the sidewalk. One of the cops crouched down, tapping the man's shoulder carefully. “What's going on here? Are you okay?”Don tried to speak, but only the sound of his labored breathing came out, raspy and disconnected. He squeezed the side of his stomach, the expression on his face one of pain. “He... he attacked me-”The cop glanced at Don's hand clutching his solar plexus. His forehead wrinkled, as if he realized something. “A blow to the liver. It must hurt a lot.”Don took a deep breath, but only half the air made it in before it stopped with a raspy sound, like a rusty wheel trying to turn. He looked up, his eyes red with anger even as his body faltered. “He... he's a thug! Made me crash, then hit me!” His voice rose, though his breathing was intermittent. “He thinks he's... untouchable!”The policeman shook his head softly, his palm remaining on Don

Harvey closed his eyes slowly as if he was holding back something big. Slowly, he took in his surroundings as he opened his eyes. Then with a slightly faint but firm gaze, Harvey exhaled a long breath.The sound of the exhale was like a wave breaking the air. In an instant the atmosphere became more tense than before. Immediately the tension crept into Jordan's mind. He who was standing next to Harvey could feel something was wrong. “Is there something going on? The General doesn't seem happy.”With authority and firmness, Harvey turned to Jordan. Making Jordan immediately stand up straight, ready to listen to the general's orders. His eyes were straight ahead, unable to look at Harvey's sharp as a sword gaze. He knew that Harvey was about to say something.Harvey squinted slightly, implying a slight feeling of disappointment. He slowly opened his lips. “How did this happen?”Jordan tilted his head slightly. Harvey's short speech was still like a riddle in Jordan's head. “What do you

Harvey set foot on what used to be his father's land. His steps felt heavy, even though the road in front of him looked smooth. It was as if there was a rope holding him down.Magnificent buildings stood firmly along the road, their shadows creating a chilling impression. Between the concrete corners, Harvey could re-imagine the green expanse that once existed, the cheerful sound of birds that used to chirp in the morning, and the laughter of his father when he told him about future dreams. But all that is now buried under layers of asphalt and bricks.Harvey stopped in front of a large building with the Comber family logo emblazoned across the top. His jaw hardens, his teeth chattering as he recalls how the family took this land from his father ten years ago. Harvey's hands clenched tightly at his sides, but he let out a long breath, trying to calm the anger that began to creep into his chest.Harvey muttered to himself. Along with a long exhale. “I'm late for this place, Father.” H

“Ah! That hurts!” Wade groaned while holding his shoulder. The pain was still great even though the collision had passed.Wade's other friends came over and tried to help him up. Their faces were filled with confusion. Because what they saw wasn't anything big.Nika frowned, she looked worried about Wade. “What's wrong, Wade? Are you okay?”Being asked that by a woman stirred Wade's ego. It would feel weak if Wade continued to behave like that.Forcibly, Wade moved his body to stand back up. Then he furrowed his brows as he stared at Harvey. The flames of hatred rose in his chest. In his mind, he was still holding back. “Damn it... why did a small collision cause me this much pain?”Because of the pain, Wade held his shoulder again, but then he pointed at Harvey. “He hit me! Look, he's deliberately trying to harm me. Poor bastard! How dare you do this to me.”All eyes were immediately on Harvey. Their gazes were like hawks spotting prey. Ready to pounce at any moment.Harvey faced it

On top of the building, Harvey looked down. His gaze was sharp, unwavering, piercing straight through Wade and his entourage. They look around, searching, but they can't find Harvey anywhere. Slowly, their expressions changed. Fear spread across their faces, and finally, with hurried steps and pale faces, they fled.Harvey took a deep breath. Cold air flowed around him, as if every molecule was frozen by his presence. His eyes closed for a moment, giving room to the firmness that seeped from within him.Harvey recalled Wade's words that he was going to hold an arbitrary concert in this place. Something that shouldn't be done on Harvey's father's land. "This place is not for concerts."As his last breath was exhaled, the air heated up again. It was as if the world was obeying his command, as if it was responding to the warmth Harvey was offering. The fire of determination in Havey's chest burned to reclaim this land.With slow, calm movements, Harvey turned around. Behind him, Jordan a

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

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

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

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

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

Stan felt the heat radiate to his ears. His jaw hardened, his teeth grinding together until there was a faint sound of enamel scraping. His eyes widened, staring at Harvey as if he wanted to swallow him alive."Damn it! This guy is getting sassy!" he thought, hands clenched at his sides. His breathing began to get heavy, his chest rising and falling as a wave of anger boiled inside him. "I'm already groveling, and he's acting like he has all the power here?"Stan remained bent over, his body rigid as if there were invisible ropes holding him in that position. His jaw clenched tightly, and for a moment, his breath caught like a stone in his chest.He glanced to the side, looking for some support from Hillary and Gwen. Instead, both women looked at him with furrowed brows, their gazes demanding. Secretly, they were giving Stan the code to find a way out of this situation immediately."Shit! They want me to solve this problem myself?" Stan's eyes twitched. His throat felt dry. He knew fu

"We..." Hillary opened her mouth, but her voice caught in her throat. Her throat felt dry, as if the air around her had turned to dust that clogged her breath. She glanced at Stan and Gwen, hoping for support, but they looked away. Their gazes were blank, their faces slightly pale, as if they had just realized the fatal mistake they had made.In front of them, Erik Reinhart stood tall. His eyes were sharp, almost piercing, as if to expose their lies and arrogance. The silence that hung in the air was oppressive, making every second seem so long.Hillary wrung her fingers, trying to quell the anxiety that was starting to creep in. She knew that one wrong word could backfire. Erik Reinhart was not a random person. If he wanted, he could make Julius Claymore literally throw them out of this party. One more mistake, and they would be the talk of all Duskvale-not as the elite, but as an embarrassing joke. For the first time that night, Hillary realized that they had lost control of the sit

Stan, Hillary and Gwen were frozen in place. Their minds were spinning, trying to make sense of the reality that had just hit them mercilessly. Harvey. The man they'd been insulting and belittling. Not a beggar, not a loser, but someone who was able to donate 200 million dollars with a single touch on his phone screen.Gwen bit her lip, as if hoping this was all a misunderstanding. Hillary swallowed, her throat suddenly dry. Meanwhile, Stan, who was usually full of confidence, could only grin stiffly. Their foreheads furrowed, looking for a way out of this situation.Finally, Stan laughed softly-a forced laugh, more like a face-saving attempt. He glanced at Erik with hopeful eyes. “Forgive us, Mr. Erik,” he said, his voice softer than before. “We didn't really mean those things.”Hillary tried to smile, but her facial muscles tightened, making her expression look more like a stiff grin than a genuine smile. Her eyes glanced at Erik carefully, gauging his reaction. “Really, Mr. Erik Re
Chapter 130
The three froze in place, glancing at each other with expressions that were difficult to translate. Hillary bit her lip, as if to argue, but the words stuck in her throat. Stan growled softly, his chin raised a little higher, as if refusing to be humiliated. While Gwen, who was usually calmer, finally clicked her tongue.She let out a long breath, then crossed her arms in front of her chest. Her eyes flashed sarcastically as she looked at Erik. “We simply can't donate as much as 200 million dollars,” she said, her voice laden with skepticism. “But does Mr. Erik really believe that this veteran can keep his promise?”Erik responded calmly. He gave Harvey a quick glance, then flashed a faint smile-not a mocking smile, but the expression of someone who knew more than others.He knew Harvey. Not just as a soldier, but as someone who held a high position on the battlefield. However, even with all his knowledge, Erik still did not realize that the man before him was a God of War.More than
