The Ultimate Commander Cassian Chapter 315
Hawthorne was one of the influential families in Weltaria due to the success of its manufacturing business in recent years. The company contributed a large amount of taxes to the country. Zeke, Gabriel's only son, was set to inherit the Hawthorne Industrial Group (HIG) in the future.However, some time ago, Gabriel announced that Zeke was no longer part of Hawthorne. The data had been updated, and Gabriel was declared the fifth richest person in Weltaria. This was a huge loss for Zeke, who should have been able to replace his father as one of the wealthiest people.Instead of feeling regret, Zeke casually responded that losing the company's inheritance was not a big deal. "Wow, my cousins must be so happy that I've been kicked out of the heir's chair! Dad, you'll be busy dealing with all those people trying to suck up to you from now on.""How dare you joke in this situation! I'm serious!" Gabriel snapped."So am I," Zeke replied, his humorous tone turning serious. His determined gaze
The Ultimate Commander Cassian Chapter 316
The military needs strong fighters to support the country's defense. But when war happens, powerful weapons are most needed. Even the strongest soldiers would find it hard to win without good weapons in this modern era.That's why the Soul Essence project is such a brilliant idea. With the weapons developed by Cassian, other countries would not dare to attack Weltaria.Elara continued her explanation, "The project is nearly finished. If you get involved now, the Hawthorne family name will get credit for it."Isadora became even more excited. She hugged her husband and exclaimed, "We must fund the project, Darling!""That's exactly what I was thinking." Gabriel had made his decision. He looked at Elara and declared, "The Hawthorne family will fund the project!"From the outside, Elara looked normal with her light smile. But inside, she was cheering with joy. The materials needed to make the Soul Essence weapons were hard to get and expensive.Cassian did receive large funding from the

The guards were surprised that Cassian would give such an answer. Everyone in Axion knew that Rasmus controlled the city. No one was stronger than him, so he had been the leader for many years.Axion had different rules compared to other cities in Weltaria. Even the President dared not touch Axion since powerful people inhabited the city. Rasmus was the absolute leader here, and everyone who wanted to enter or stay in Axion had to follow him."It seems like you're here to commit suicide. How dare you insult Rasmus with your filthy mouth!" one of the guards shouted angrily.Cassian shrugged, not caring. "If you don't believe me, you can ask Rasmus. He will surely allow me to enter without any conditions.""Rasmus is an honorable man. We've never seen your face anywhere in Axion. You're nobody, so you're not worthy of meeting Rasmus," another guard replied cynically.Only important people could meet Rasmus, the Leader. They had to have a high position in the country or extraordinary cul
The Ultimate Commander Cassian Chapter 318
Everyone in the hall felt the tension, their bodies stiff as they waited for what would happen next. Not everyone in Axion had seen the previous leader's face because Cassian was secretive. However, they all knew he had amber-colored eyes.Anyone with amber eyes was scrutinized more closely than others. This happened because Rasmus had anticipated Cassian's arrival. Unfortunately, the security team led by Jason had made a huge mistake."Why are you asking me, Rasmus? These guards said you are the absolute leader here. You should know what punishment should be given," Cassian responded with his usual calm smile.Rasmus swallowed hard, his tongue feeling dry. Anyone who did not know Cassian would feel safe with his calm demeanor. But Rasmus was uneasy because he did not know what Cassian was thinking since he always remained so composed."I'm no longer the leader here," Cassian continued, staring at the mayor's office. "Why should I be responsible for your careless guards?""Master, I d
The Ultimate Commander Cassian Announcement
Hello readers, this is an announcement but will be titled Chapter xxx due to the system. I apologize for the long hiatus. The reason might be classic, but I’ve been facing issues that have affected my mental health. I didn’t make an announcement earlier because reality and hallucinations were often distorted in my mind. I couldn’t write properly when I was struggling. I didn’t want my announcements or writing to be a mess, and I didn’t have anyone to trust for help.I’m feeling better now. I almost gave up, but I remembered the stories I hadn’t finished. Readers, you don’t know how much your support means to me. I’m grateful to write here because of you, my readers and editor. You’ve given me a reason to keep going. I know some of you may be going through tough times, too, and I hope you keep fighting.

Rasmus's breath caught as his gaze fell on the wolf logo on the assault rifle's body. His hand clenched tightly at his side, trying to appear calm, but his eyes could not hide the overflowing emotions."Master, I'm truly grateful to be on your side," he murmured with deep emotion. "I don't know what to say. Thank you for your hard work in developing Soul Essence.""There's no need to thank me. I had to do it," Cassian said, his eyes shifting to the next weapon, which was being laser-etched.He continued, "Once the conflict with the Narman Empire is over, everyone will know about the Soul Essence project. I will only sell these weapons to countries that are subordinate to or affiliated with Weltaria.""What if a group tries to steal the material for Soul Essence? It would be a disaster if they succeeded," Rasmus asked, still worried."Before that happens, I'll have the support of many nations that want Soul Essence. Instead of stealing, save up and buy what you desire. Wise people will
The Ultimate Commander Cassian Chapter 320
Everyone in Axion had heard that someone had breached the protective formation. They were ready to fight if the intruder arrived, but the guards had announced that it was the previous leader's action.Rosalie was practicing in the mountains when she received the news. She was still in the Energy Gathering stage, and the mountains were the best place to absorb pure energy."Who was the previous leader of Axion? I've only heard that he was stronger than Master Rasmus," Rosalie asked, curious.Kevin, another disciple in the training group, immediately explained, "You're still new here, so it's understandable you don't know the details. The previous leader was called Master Valor. He was tall and always well-dressed. The most striking feature of his appearance was his amber-colored eyes, which looked like fire!""Huh? That sounds like someone I know.""Maybe it's just someone who looks similar. Master Valor joined the military and handed over the city's leadership to Rasmus. You'd unlikel

Cassian wore a mask when he attended the film premiere, but Callista was sure that the mysterious man was him. The man had the same physique and eye color as Cassian.Suddenly, Terrence's words flashed through Callista's mind. The director had told her not to talk about Cassian if she wanted to keep her career safe. Her body stiffened as she remembered the misfortunes that had befallen Ashlyn, Tate, and Cade."Who do you think you are, trying to kick me out? Even the President allowed me to stay here," Zeke responded to Gina's rude remark, furrowing his brow."The President is a generous man, so he didn't ban you from staying anywhere," Gina said, her opinion of Zeke worsening. "But you should leave rather than ruin the reputation of Victory Hills!""The requirement to live in this neighborhood is owning property, and I've met that requirement. In fact, Victory Hills' reputation would be ruined if they kicked me out, as I'm a legitimate resident here.""I heard the Hawthorne family re

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
