The Ultimate Commander Cassian Chapter 285
Before Emily could slap Roy, Samuel held her back and asked Roy to stop being rude. "We are a family. Instead of fighting each other like this, we should find a way out of our problems!"Everyone was silent, trying to think of the best solution. Mental illness was a sensitive issue for a company leader like Thomas. Even if he recovered, investors would still be skeptical of him just because he had received mental health treatment.In the tense atmosphere, firm footsteps echoed throughout the hallway. The nurses blushed as they stole glances at Zeke and Elara, who looked dashing in their military olive-green uniforms.Samuel had asked Elara to come but did not expect his daughter to come looking different. "Why are you wearing an army uniform?" he wondered in amazement.With just a change of clothes, Elara had a different aura than usual. She looked more stern with her military uniform and hair pulled back into a ponytail. Even Nathaniel's jaw dropped as he marveled at her charm."Shut

Samuel did not want to return Elara to the military, but his daughter's confidence reassured him. Besides, the war was over, so he was sure Elara would only be doing light duty."I'll find someone to take over your job for now. You can focus on your duties in the military," Samuel said as Elara ended their embrace."If you run into trouble, you can ask Cassian for help," Elara whispered. "He will try to help you."For the next two days, Elara would spend her time at General Headquarters and could not pay attention to her parents. Cassian had stated that he would help them during her absence."Others will do all your work. I hope you can take responsibility for that," Scott spoke with a hint of sarcasm.Elara could see what he meant. "I'll give you my entire salary from the state.""You are indeed my best granddaughter! May you fulfill your duties successfully."The compliments that Scott usually gave to Olivia were now given to Elara. He supported Elara more since his other grandchild

Gate officers were changing shifts when they noticed an unknown jeep approaching. They were responsible for recording and reporting the identity of incoming guests. Also, they needed to ensure that all security procedures were followed before guests were allowed in.No guests should have arrived today. Even if there were an urgent visit, the gate officers would have been notified first."Did they get lost?" an officer guessed.The General Headquarters was located in the forest, far from residential areas, since they stored dangerous weapons. Warning signs had been put up, but sometimes people took the wrong path."It looks like they were hikers who got lost. The road to the nearest mountain is confusing," another officer responded.Winding roads often confused people, especially if they were not experienced map readers. Most people who got lost were beginner hikers.The jeep stopped as the officers stood in the way. In front of the tall gate, it looked like a car toy."This is Weltari

Falkner was just as nervous as the soldiers. As a lieutenant colonel, he was automatically close to Elara as he always had to report to her. He knew better than anyone how capable she was.Although not as strong as Zeke, Elara was on the list of the top strong people in the military. She was better at using weapons than fighting with her bare hands.If she had a weapon with her, it meant she would take her opponent seriously. Falkner grasped the communication device with trembling hands and immediately contacted the Command Room."Code Red! Security control reports a dangerous intruder and requests immediate assistance from the generals!"The soldiers held their breath in suspense. Code red indicates a serious threat or emergency, such as an attack. With Falkner using the code, he declared Elara a danger that had to be dealt with immediately."First of all, go to the bunker with other low-ranking soldiers," Falkner gave evacuation instructions. "I'll contact the soldiers on the practi

Zeke dodged all the shots with quick, sharp movements. His eyes stayed focused on Obi, who showed no sign of fear.Among the junior generals, Obi was the best shooter and could beat Zeke's record. When not a single bullet could penetrate Zeke, Obi managed to land one on his thigh just before he strangled him."If you calm down, we'll let you join Colonel Elara," Obi said.Zeke ignored his best friend's advice. The gunshot wound on his thigh was dripping blood, but he could still move well. He swiftly drew Obi's assault rifle and broke it in half.His eyes flashed as he exclaimed, "I'll make those bastards like this!""Keep firing!" Obi ordered as his comrades paused in shock. He was forced to retreat from the formation to retrieve another weapon.It was impossible to win against the Berserk Zeke without a firearm. His endurance increased every time he got mad, so he only felt pain from powerful weapons.Three main generals could defeat Zeke easily. The distance between the field and t

In front of the presidential palace, an old man forced the guards to let him in. But Ronin had already stated that he was busy and could not meet anyone today. "How can you block me like this? Our country is in danger, so you should get out of my way," Virgil protested, gripping the metal gates in anger.He was the Minister of Defense and had just received an emergency call from General Headquarters. News of Elara and Zeke's illegal visit had reached his ears. Seeing Ronin do nothing, Virgil thought the President was unaware of the important information. It had been so peaceful lately that people were getting too caught up in the atmosphere. A bodyguard clucked his tongue in annoyance. "Mr. President must know very well about the country's situation. Just leave here because we don't want to beat you!" "I won't give up. This is all for the good of the people!" "Ugh, you're so noisy! Even if you're the Defense Minister, you can't enter the presidential palace without permission."

All the soldiers gathered in the hall without exception. The generals forced out even those already in the banker's quarters. They could not fight back because the generals were higher rank than them.Even if they protested, they could not win since the top three generals stood next to Elara and Zeke. That was enough proof that the generals were beside the 'rebels.'"Everyone is here, right? It's good because I don't have to look for the people I must beat up!" Zeke was the first to speak up.Not all the soldiers had sour and nervous faces. Some stood up happily because the one standing before them was the Great Commander's messenger."Can you explain this, Legendary General?" A soldier standing in the front row asked while staring intently at Bertolt. He was General Stefan, who belonged to the Ronin side.Bertolt smiled. "That is the same question I asked you when you defected from the Great Commander. Like your answer back then, I also took the favorable side.""You fool! You'll onl
The Ultimate Commander Cassian Chapter 292
The soldiers who could hear Bertolt's words were upset. They felt the Legendary General had demeaned the Stealth Brigade."You've already committed a grave offense by supporting the rebels. And now, you insult an elite unit!" Major Vienna exclaimed loudly, her voice reaching to the very back of the line.Francesca snorted. "You got promoted without merit for sucking up to the President. A talentless person like you doesn't need to speak up!""Junior General Francesca, I will report your disrespectful attitude! When the elite unit comes, you can no longer be so arrogant. Your rank will be lowered!""I'm not power-hungry like you, Major. You used your family's wealth to get your rank. Do you think I'll be afraid of your threats?"Vienna's face flushed with anger and shame. A major was indeed lower than a general. Nevertheless, since Vienna belonged to Ronin's side, her position was higher than Francesca or Cassian's other supporters.After Ronin became the highest leader, the Great Comm

Stefan's actions triggered several other soldiers to do the same—remove all the symbols that marked their positions in the military. While it looked like the same action, they had different reasons for doing so. Not everyone feared the Military Prison.People like Stefan simply wanted to fight because it was their duty to protect the country. Not many soldiers thought this way, as most of them chose to fight to avoid punishment.Cassian raised an eyebrow when he realized that some soldiers were still unwilling to surrender to him. It caught his attention because they were faces he did not recognize."I appreciate differing opinions. Therefore, I will not force anyone to go to the battlefield. Anyone who prefers punishment can line up over there," he instructed, pointing to the left.The soldiers who refused to fight quickly formed their line. Major Vienna stood at the front, pride still etched on her face."I'm sorry, I don't recognize all of you." Cassian walked toward the line on th

Cassian walked with his hands resting behind his back while Elara and Zeke fell into line with the other soldiers. Rasmus did not join the formation since he was not part of Weltaria's military. He stood at the very back, alone, in a rigid posture.The soldiers, who had initially been standing in disarray, automatically corrected their formation. Cassian gazed at any soldiers who had been out of line for a long time, urging them to follow the rules. Though they did not want to obey, their muscle memory forced them to comply with their commander's commanding gaze."A fine day, isn't it, comrades?" Cassian greeted, lifting his head to look at the clear sky. "This weather is perfect for the Narman Empire to strike. They would suffer great losses if they attacked during winter and rain."He looked back at the soldiers, still wearing his usual calm smile. "I heard that you've become weak lately. Why don't you head to the border and hold off the enemy forces?"The silence was thick, and no

All the soldiers at the General Headquarters were sitting quietly in the shared lounge when they received the news that the Narman forces had breached the northern border near the cities of Valen and Hawke. The military base in Weltaria had fallen, allowing the enemy to enter easily. Virgil had deployed the soldiers from the branch headquarters, but everyone knew that it would not hold for long."What are we going to do? If we keep staying still, the enemy will eventually attack us," Major Vienna said, hugging her trembling body.A lieutenant general named Agnes snorted. "You got promoted because of your connection to the President. No wonder you're scared. If it were me, I'd face the enemy with my strength," she responded sarcastically."How dare you insult me! You wouldn't dare say that in front of the President, would you? You coward!" Vienna retorted."That's true," Major General Sylvia responded, rolling her eyes. "But we're all tired of this new system. How can someone get promo

Ronin's departure left a sorrowful silence for a while. Those in the President's faction did not understand why they should feel sad when Ronin had betrayed them. They thought they would be indifferent after their former leader left, but instead, they felt an indescribable emotion.However, there was no time for mourning. Cassian clapped his hands a few times to regain everyone's attention."I do have a personal vendetta against Ronin, but he has also committed crimes that deserve punishment. This means I will drag everyone involved with him to trial," he declared.Everyone in the President's faction stood tense, unhappy with the topic but knowing it was coming. Cassian must be saying this because he had irrefutable evidence."But instead of conventional punishment, I want to give you a noble chance to redeem yourselves," Cassian said with a smile.Rather than feeling relieved, the President's supporters grew anxious because they knew Cassian would not let them off easily."I'd rather

The hall was filled with murmurs of surprise from the participants about the Soul Essence. Since cultivators existed, all the military forces in the world had to develop weapons that could match their power. This was the beginning of the creation of energy weapons, as not everyone could cultivate.For instance, Weltaria had more soldiers who could not cultivate than those who could. To balance the gap, the country had no choice but to invest heavily in purchasing energy-based ammunition that could only be used on special weapons.The price was beyond question. It was undoubtedly expensive, and Weltaria lacked the funds to purchase enough energy weaponry. This is why Ronin called upon wealthy, influential families, including the Hawthornes, as he needed their help."Can your words be trusted? I've never heard of energy bullets that can destroy cores. If it only weakens them, that's still reasonable," Ronin voiced his skepticism, hoping that Cassian was exaggerating.Cassian placed his

Valoric was a word that none of the participants had expected to come up in this emergency meeting. They could indeed use the Valoric inheritance to benefit the country, but Mabel would not let that happen because everything had to follow the law.Everyone was shocked by the reality that the heir to the legendary family still existed. The officials had already imagined that everything Valoric owned would fall into their hands within the next fifteen years. Even though they would not be in office by that time, they could still place their relatives in government positions to corrupt it."W-Wait a minute!" Mabel stuttered, raising both of her hands. "You need to discuss this with the President first."Cassian glanced at Ronin briefly and laughed. "I'm sure that's unnecessary. The President already knows I'm the only remaining heir of Valoric.""What? He should've told me immediately!""Well, there must be a reason he kept it a secret. Even the top three richest people in the country hav

The officials who came from various regions grew even more uneasy because of Gabriel's words. They had no idea what had happened to the Commander in Lumithorn City or the capital. Cassian had never disturbed them, so they had no interest in finding out anything about him. It was natural that they felt the most disadvantaged in this situation."Sir, I have worked well as the governor of Nothford. I feel it's unfair that I'm trapped in the internal conflict between you and the Commander," said Jed, speaking on behalf of the other officials who had no involvement in the President's personal issues.Ronin raised his hand while shaking his head, signaling everyone to stop talking. "The Commander didn't bother you because there was nothing in your region that caught his attention. But do you think he truly ignores you? He must have secretly investigated your crimes ever since you actually sided with my government.""Are you trying to provoke the officials to hate the Commander?" Gabriel int

"I will remove Ronin from his position and claim the Narman Empire as part of Weltaria once we win. We can do anything once we have power," Cassian continued as he applied ointment to the wound on Elara's leg.It was a medicine he had developed together with Franklin, using rare new herbs they cultivated at the villa in Victory Hills. The ointment was effective for healing wounds caused by cultivation attacks or other objects with similar effects, such as energy bullet rifles.The ointment had been in development for a long time and was only perfected after the three-year war ended. Narman was currently detaining Franklin because he had been involved with Ronin's secret project. However, the ointments had been safely stored in the basement of the Victory Hills villa."Doctor Franklin succeeded," Elara said as her wound slowly closed and the pain subsided. "We can use this ointment for the injured soldiers later!""That was exactly my plan. Doctor Franklin also developed a stronger ant

Cassian did not accept the paper and merely read the address once to memorize it. He walked out of the Weltaria Hall of Culture without saying anything further. After his departure, people could finally breathe a sigh of relief as his dominating aura vanished.They rubbed their throats, which had previously felt constricted, making it impossible for them to speak. The air around them returned to normal, and they were never more grateful to breathe freely."What was that just now? I wanted to flee quickly, but I couldn't move my body," one of the guests whispered when he finally managed to move again.Others had the same reaction once they could move their bodies. They cheered in joy, forgetting that they had just been throwing things at Ronin. Cassian had quietly calmed them with his dominant aura, allowing them to think clearly.The most important task now was evacuating civilians to a safe zone. Cassian would not prioritize his revenge on Ronin or the people who had once humiliated
