The Ultimate Commander Cassian Chapter 380
Olivia took her mission from Ronin seriously and investigated Georgia as quickly as possible. Her secretary reported that Georgia was a heavy burden because her father had been diagnosed with liver cancer and needed a large amount of money for treatment.She once submitted a request for a salary increase, which Elara immediately accepted. However, only Hayden knew why Georgia wanted a raise. He had overheard her phone conversation with the hospital and quickly reported it to Olivia."I didn't expect such a coincidence," Olivia laughed, determined to use Georgia. "God must be on my side because there's no way something this convenient would happen at the perfect time!"The guards left after pushing Georgia down to the ground. They ignored her hand, which was scraped from catching her weight during the fall.Olivia walked toward Georgia and greeted her in a half-pity, half-mockery tone. "Oh dear, aren't you the assistant assigned to Elara? What a shame you've been left behind like this
The Ultimate Commander Cassian Chapter 381
Finally, the long-awaited moment had come for the dismissed soldiers—the time to take revenge on Ronin. After being dishonorably discharged by him, they had been training privately at Axion. Although the training period was not long, they believed they could match all the current soldiers in the military."Where is the Commander? He should be here with us," one soldier asked, unafraid, as it was the question in every soldier's mind.Elara could not answer truthfully because Cassian had gone to meet the elders of the Valoric family faction. He had not yet given permission to reveal his identity."The Commander has gone somewhere," Elara replied, which only raised more curiosity. "He said he would only appear if Ronin were begging at his feet.""As he should!" a loud voice echoed from the sky.When everyone looked up, they saw the silhouette of a man diving from the sky and landing smoothly beside Elara. It was Zeke who ran his fingers through his hair in a showy style while scanning th

Everyone at the town hall had become part of the Phantom Legion, including the Axion fighters in attendance. Therefore, they had the right to know information about the Narman Empire.Cassian asked Bertolt to deliver this while Elara and Zeke left to handle the weapon distribution for the soldiers."Everyone, I will reveal important information from the Phantom Legion's intelligence division. All members do not know this secret, so listen carefully!"Those who came from the intelligence division and were involved in spying on Emperor Arlo did not look as enthusiastic as the others. Instead, they wore sour expressions because they knew what Bertolt would reveal next."The spies from the intelligence division have gathered evidence that Emperor Arlo and President Ronin are connected. Emperor Arlo pressured Ronin to dismiss the Commander as a condition for peace in this war. As you know, Weltaria is in a more favorable position in the war."The truth is, Emperor Arlo needs time to gather

This moment was the soldiers' first encounter with Cassian after the Commander left the military. Thunderous applause erupted, followed by excited cheers. Some soldiers bowed respectfully, while others stood tall with their chests out, eyes glistening as they looked at the man they had longed to see."Welcome back, Commander!""We never forgot you, Lord!""We are ready to fight under your command again!"Cassian raised his hand—a simple gesture that instantly silenced the entire field. Silence wrapped around the formation instantly as if the world held its breath. Without a word, the soldiers tightened their formation at once, standing firm like a steel wall.Only the sound of Cassian's black leather shoes echoed as he stepped onto the platform. Even though he was only wearing a formal suit, his aura remained powerful—unchanged. His gaze was sharp, his steps steady. The soldiers stood still, bowing their heads in respect, for their leader had returned."Comrades, today we rise again,"
The Ultimate Commander Cassian Chapter 384
The Weltaria military forbids mixing personal matters with duty. A soldier cannot abandon his post, even if his loved one is dying. Cassian being the last descendant of the Valoric family is a personal matter, and the soldiers should not support him.However, Ronin had dismissed those soldiers. They had been unfairly discarded. Their only place to return to was Cassian, and they did not care what they had to do to remain by his side."I respect the five elders of the Valoric family," Cassian said, glancing at the five elders still standing beside him. "But I will not force you to respect them since they are only loyal to Valoric, while you are loyal to our homeland."That statement made Thaddeus, the soul cultivator, raise an offended eyebrow. "Did you come all the way to our hiding place just to humiliate us?" he criticized."I don't think that's what Lord Cassian meant," Wendell, the wind-element cultivator, defended Cassian. He was quite close to Cassian since he had passed down Le

"Commander, I think I should go," Elara said to Cassian after making a quick decision. "My assistant needs my help.""Isn't that a bit suspicious? The timing is too coincidental," Zeke commented with a raised eyebrow. He had not heard much about Georgia from Elara, indicating that their relationship was not close enough for mutual assistance.Elara was aware of the oddity but simply shrugged indifferently. "Georgia said her father has terminal cancer. Whether she's honest or not, I won't lose anything by going to her.""That's true," Zeke nodded. "If she's one of Ronin's lackeys, we might get new information!"With Cassian's approval, Elara finally left the town hall. Everyone was still shouting curses at Ronin, venting their long-held anger. Many people were still lined up outside the city, doing the same.Elara did not intend to greet anyone. However, she could not ignore Rosalie standing in the crowd."Long time no see!" Elara called out, suddenly appearing behind Rosalie and start

Ronin left all his work when he received the report that Olivia had successfully captured Elara. He was still surprised by how useful Olivia was, so he began considering using her even more."The girl from the West family is quite useful," said Dennis, Ronin's trusted man who once killed Aveline. He was acting as the president's driver this time. "I don't think you need to tell me to kill her like I did with Cassian's ex-wife.""I knew you could read my mind. That's exactly what I want!" Ronin exclaimed with a sly smile.People like Olivia tended to stay loyal because they did evil things for their gain. Aveline was a bit different because she was foolish, unaware that leaking information about Valoric could end in disaster."You just need to wait for the confirmation of Cassian's death, and everything will go as planned," Dennis said cheerfully while turning the steering wheel.Ronin showed no excitement. Killing Cassian was not easy. Even though Olivia reported that her plan had suc
The Ultimate Commander Cassian Chapter 387
"Did you hear that?" Ronin turned to Elara, who had definitely heard Cassian's voice through the loudspeaker. "Your lover doesn't care much about your life. Pathetic, isn't it?"Elara shrugged, showing no disappointment on her face. "I agree with the Commander. My life is not worth that exchange.""You two are the same. You really know how to make me angry! Dennis, finish this bitch with the Soulpiercer Dagger!"Veins bulged in Ronin's hand as he ended the call and stepped back to give Dennis space. The Soulpiercer Dagger would not be enough to kill Elara since it only weakened her core, but she would surely die if Ronin kept torturing her for the next few days."I must admit, you have a certain charm, Colonel. You're not even shaking when you know what's coming," Dennis threw a compliment as he pulled the dagger from its sheath.Elara clenched her fists, ready for whatever would happen. The Soulpiercer Dagger would not kill her today, so she just needed to hold on until Cassian's hel

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
