The Ultimate Commander Cassian Chapter 397
"Sir, are you alright?" Syla asked worriedly, but Ronin stayed silent, his eyes lifeless. The president was sitting with them in the car, yet somehow, it felt like he was far away, completely out of reach.Dean and Anne also tried to talk to Ronin, but they received the same cold silence. Eventually, they gave up, realizing something was deeply wrong.Far away from that place, in a different time decades ago, young Ronin was playing the piano while the servants smiled as they listened. For a child his age, he was extremely talented in music and could be considered a genius pianist in the making.The servants clapped as Ronin finished playing Liebestraum No. 3, a romantic piano piece by Franz Liszt that symbolized eternal love and deep emotion. Its gentle melody touched the heart, while its complex technique showed Ronin's mastery."Young Master, you were amazing! Could it be that you're the next Mozart?" the head butler praised him sincerely.Ronin smiled shyly under the sunlight stre
The Ultimate Commander Cassian Chapter 398
Ronin was stunned by the little girl's innocent yet piercing response. She was right. The road home was not far. He was the one who made it that way. In his mind, his younger self laughed at him and said, "Come on, just admit it. You're a coward! You don't dare to walk another path because you're afraid to start over!""No, I didn't mean it that way," Ronin murmured, his gaze becoming more lifeless. Syla looked worried at his reaction, thinking it was her words. Dean and Anne asked what was going on, but the President suddenly screamed while clutching his head."Don't act like you know everything!" Ronin shouted at the shadow of his younger self that kept appearing in his mind. "You don't know anything! You don't know what I've been through. I had to sacrifice everything I wanted to get to this position!""But you could have chosen not to sacrifice it," young Ronin laughed mockingly. His large, glowing eyes were nothing like the eyes of the adult Ronin, which were now burning inside t
The Ultimate Commander Cassian Chapter 1: A Sacrifice for Peace
For three long years, the battlefield echoed with shouts, cries, and clashing weapons. But now, after Weltaria's victory, a brief hush fell over the scene.The soldiers kept a firm grip on their weapons, wary that the enemies might feign surrender and launch another attack. Once they realized victory, they dropped their weapons and erupted into cheers.Compared to the ecstatic atmosphere on the battlefield, the Command and Control Center felt heavy ever since someone arrived."Our enemies agreed to a peace treaty with us, and their only demand was for Cassian to drink this bottle of medicine. If you want the war to end, just drink this. Don't you seek peace, Commander Cassian?"Cassian Valor, the supreme leader responsible for strategic decisions, sat calmly behind the desk.His physique was well-built, clad in shining armor, and adorned with royal symbols denoting his authority. With a sharp stare, he examined the mysterious bottle of medicine offered by Ronin, the President of Welta
The Ultimate Commander Cassian Chapter 2: Grand Ceremony
Three days later, the news of the peace agreement spread across the nation, capturing the attention of other countries. Walteria's war against Narman Empire attracted the attention of other countries due to its large scale.Many were skeptical that Walteria could maintain peace in the nation.The people of Walteria were pleased when they heard the war was over. They no longer had to worry about the Narman that often hurt innocent people.A group of construction workers were taking a break while talking about the news started by the foreman."The war is over! We beat the Narman!"The others responded enthusiastically."The Great Commander is really great! He can create peace that was thought to be impossible.""But isn't it strange that the Great Commander doesn't appear much in the news?""I think I'm the only one who noticed. The news only mentions him successfully handling the war, but there's no explanation of his next move."Everyone wondered where Cassian went after the war was o
The Ultimate Commander Cassian Chapter 3: File for Divorce
Cassian was surprised by Isabell's statement. Although he was able to predict the enemy's movements and devise a war strategy, he could not have predicted that Aveline would want a divorce. It was beyond his reach.He was disappointed that Aveline filed for divorce at their meeting after all this time. Apparently, she had a different idea about this meeting."Why are you doing nothing? Take these divorce papers and return them to me when you have signed them," Isabella growled in annoyance that Cassian was silent like a fool.Cassian snapped out of his reverie. Unable to see, his hand fumbled on the table for the divorce papers. But he accidentally nudged the coffee cup, spilling the contents onto the documents."I'm sorry! I didn't do it on purpose!"Isabella did not accept Cassian's apology and snapped at him, "You must have done it on purpose! Are you pretending to be blind to mess things up? I'm sure you expected Aveline to divorce you, so you planned this."Hearing the accusation
The Ultimate Commander Cassian Chapter 4: The Noble Community
The teenagers whistled to see who was helping Cassian. It turned out to be Elara, dressed in a suit that highlighted her figure. She did not make a friendly expression to the teenagers, but they still tried to tease her.One of the youths winked at her. "Sexy and nice too. How about we have a cup of coffee together, Mommy?"His friends giggled. They did not think Elara was dangerous since this cafe was not a hangout for influential rich people.The guy who flirted with Elara was Maverick. His father owned a lot of property in Lumithorn. He had influence in this city, so he was unafraid of anyone."Are you playing hard to get?" Maverick was not happy that Elara was ignoring him. He was offended that she was paying more attention to Cassian."You're going to let her be arrogant?" His friend whispered, trying to provoke him. "You're not going to jail just for hitting a woman, are you?"Maverick smirked. His juvenile delinquency had gotten him arrested by the police a few times. But thank
The Ultimate Commander Cassian Chapter 5: Blindness Cure
The atmosphere grew tense as Cassian said nothing, leaving Ace and the guards waiting in suspense. It was only for a moment, but they felt as if they had been trapped for a long time.Cassian threw the access card at Ace, saying, "Let's check if this is real!"The guards gulped nervously as his words reminded them of their impolite behavior. If it were ten minutes ago, they would not have believed that the access card was real.But after seeing Ace on his knees, it was evident that Cassian was no ordinary person. Ace took the thrown access card without offense. He walked up to the gate and swiped the card.A moment later, the gate opened. It can only be closed and opened with the access card. Victory Hill was a community of influential rich people, so there was no way anyone could forge access to it.The guards' jaws dropped in tremor. It took them some time to respond to this shocking incident."Lord, you can enter the villa," Ace bowed as he returned the access card to Cassian.Seei
The Ultimate Commander Cassian Chapter 6: Family-in-law
The next day, Cassian was going to court alone at the appointed time. Elara was not with him because he did not want to involve her in his personal affairs. Aveline was already there with Isabella. She waited impatiently for Cassian to arrive. "He will come, right? I'm afraid he ran away because he doesn't want to divorce me," she bit her thumb nervously. The thought of Cassian running away and not signing the divorce documents made Isabella anxious, too. If the divorce were not confirmed soon, Cassian would still be Aveline's husband. Divorce requires the consent of both parties because the court will not approve if there is a lack of evidence. "You and that useless man should get a divorce as soon as possible!" Isabella stated. "If he doesn't come here, I will find a way to get you two divorced." Aveline frowned. "How? Cassian didn't see me for three years, but the court could have excused it because he went to the army during that time." "That's easy. You can say he cheated

The departure of the top three richest people was not what triggered the others to leave. In fact, it was Virgil's decision and Ronin's words that convinced them that staying was the wrong choice. Besides, history has shown how the winning side always hunted the losers.Even if the people in the President's Faction tried to run, they would never live peacefully because Arlo would definitely try to capture them. In the end, they would die because of the war."I'm sorry, Sir. I can't bring my family with me if I run away. It's too risky," Mayor Warren said with a bitter smile.Without warning, Ronin punched him. "Are you going to betray me now after everything I've given you? All of you sitting here got your positions in the government because of me!"Everyone lowered their heads in shame. There had not been any opposition party in Weltaria since Ronin fully took control of the government. Even if there was one, it never had as much influence as the President's Faction. The only power t

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

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

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…"
Chapter 391
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

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
