"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

    "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

    Cassian's departure from the military gave Ronin a huge advantage, as he had always been worried about the Commander's popularity. Now, with full control over the military, Ronin finally felt like a true leader. He was so blinded by power that he ignored the possibility of Arlo betraying him.Every time a thought like that crossed his mind, he would always push it away, convinced that he and Arlo had the same enemy. But in truth, Arlo never saw him as a partner. He saw him purely as a servant, just as Elara had said.Ronin's eyes twitched and narrowed as he recalled Elara's insult. He returned to her, not with violence but with suspicion."Wait a minute. Not long ago, you called me Emperor Arlo's slave. Does that mean you know about our secret cooperation?" he asked, hoping for a no.But Elara gave a firm nod. "Phantom Legion has an intelligence division. Why do you think Weltaria has the upper hand in this war with Narman? It's because we planted spies to monitor Emperor Arlo's movem

    The opening of the emergency meeting did not give enough motivation for those present to open their eyes fully. Most of them were still yawning, silently complaining that they should have been able to sleep peacefully tonight.Only a few of them seemed serious, including the Minister of Defense, Virgil. He had already sensed something was wrong since Ronin and the Commander never had a good relationship. Slowly but surely, Weltaria would suffer from the decisions of those two influential figures."Mr. President, sorry to interrupt. Is it true that the Narman Empire has declared war?" Virgil asked, still finding it hard to believe that Arlo would break the agreement.Ronin let out a heavy sigh as if he were the most exhausted one in the room. With a wave of his hand, he signaled Jolene to play the recording of the call between Arlo and him."I was reviewing a military training report when I received that call," Ronin lied, making Jolene slightly frown because she knew the President was

    Allen responded irritably, "Are you suspecting me now? I was only close to Cassian's parents. He comes from a family of fighters, which is why he's so strong.""What family is he from? I don't know any powerful family named Valor," Waylon interrogated in a demanding tone. He had long been curious about Cassian's background, so he was not going to miss the chance to find out.Everyone wanted to know what made Cassian different from the others. If they learned about his background, they could follow his example and gain as much power as he did."His family used to produce many great fighters, but that doesn't matter anymore because they're no longer around," Allen replied flatly, refusing to reveal any information about the Valorics.Waylon folded his arms, his eyes sharply focused on Allen. "I don't care about your identity as the richest man in the country, Mr. Vanderlyn. The fact is, I fight to protect wealthy people like you, so you should be honest out of respect for me and the oth

    Cassian's absence in this war did not intimidate the President's Faction. They believed they could outmatch their enemies with better weapons. The Narman Empire's economy crashed after surrendering with terms, while Weltaria continued to grow stronger.Financially, Weltaria's military was in a much better position. Humans were powerless when faced with weapons. That's what Ronin's supporters believed until they were shocked by the soldiers' response."I immediately announced the news to everyone at General Headquarters. Most of the soldiers refused to go to the battlefield. Only a few were willing, and we won't win even with good weapons," Stefan answered, trying to hold back his frustration.Ronin slammed the podium again. "What made them brave enough to make that kind of decision? They must fight for the country because it's their duty!""They're tired of the system that keeps changing. During Bertolt's leadership, the military was stagnant and didn't change much. Then, the Commande

    Vance and Asher should have been seated at the military table with the others. Both of them had been sidelined from their duties in the West region because the situation there had already been under control. They were supposed to be present at the meeting, especially considering the emergency."Jolene, contact General Vance right now!" Ronin ordered, not suspecting anything. He had been observing Vance ever since Cassian was still in power and believed that Vance was an opportunist.The soldiers who had left to support Cassian were nothing more than active-duty soldiers currently under Ronin's control. Because of this, Ronin was confident that Vance would not turn against him."S-Sir, it seems General Vance has blocked your number," Jolene said nervously.Ronin frowned. "How could he dare do that? He must be drunk somewhere in a bar and hasn't read my message. Try contacting him again!""I sent him a message from my number, and it went through, but your number can't reach him at all…"

    Jolene flinched in shock when Ronin snatched the phone from her roughly. The trace of anger on his face grew more intense. It was understandable, considering the only thing he received after waiting for fifteen minutes was an insult."Do you think just because you're the underground ruler, you have the right to insult me? Your position is not higher than mine. Just wait and see until I destroy you!" he shouted, saliva flying from his mouth."I don't believe you can win the war," Daisy continued, mocking Ronin. "General Vance didn't come to me, but I know about the Narman Empire declaring war. Clearly, you're short on manpower if you're contacting me.""How do you know about that war?""Ghost Network can get information fast, even if it's a few minutes late. I received a report that soldiers from the Narman Empire were seen bringing several people who looked like doctors to the border."Ronin gripped the phone tightly, his strength cracking the screen until it flickered. Even so, the p

    Ronin's arrogance was what brought him to the position he was in now. He looked down on everyone in Weltaria, including Cassian. If he had discarded his pride long ago, Cassian would probably still be in the military now.But Ronin thought too highly of himself, believing he could make Weltaria reach the top under his rule. His arrogance slowly faded when Cassian appeared and shook his power.At that moment, the President realized he had been defeated by someone greater than himself. However, he refused to accept this reality and eventually allied with Arlo. Even after betraying his own country, he still could not defeat Cassian. He would have done so long ago if he could."Are you serious?" Virgil asked in disbelief.Ronin gave a wry smile. "The soldiers won't obey me since I am only respected. They need someone they fear to force them to fight on the battlefield."Everyone fell silent at that answer. They had had Ronin as President for almost five years, so they were familiar with a

    The suffocating silence swept across the room following Waylon's blunt statement. Everyone's words got caught in their throats, and no one dared to say a word. The truth was, they had already doubted Ronin's ability to handle the war ever since he started throwing tantrums during the meeting.The one leading the battle should possess a calmness as vast as the ocean amid a storm. How could Ronin, who was so temperamental, stay composed when things did not go according to plan?Whack!Finally, the sound of a slap shattered the silence. Waylon did not move an inch despite Ronin slapping him hard, showing his incredible physical strength.Ronin grew more offended by Waylon's reaction to the slap. Arlo's betrayal had already weighed heavily on him; now, someone from his faction added to his burden."You dare—""Of course, I dare," Waylon interrupted, his gaze growing colder. "I hate the Commander for being too hard on their soldiers. That's why I sided with you instead of him. But now I th
