Scott's face tensed up in anger. He could not believe Cassian still dared to interfere after being threatened by him.

"You seem to have grown bold just because you are a soldier," he scoffed at Cassian. "But this isn't a battlefield where you will be praised for your bravery. You will die young if you behave like this in front of a first-tier family!"

Since Cassian was not afraid of the second-tier West family, Scott deliberately brought in the first-tier family to pressure him. Even if someone had been on the battlefield, they should have known that first-tier families were influential.

An ordinary soldier who did not come from any great family like Cassian would tremble in fear. The first-tier families could destroy anyone they wanted in this country.

"And the West family will soon become a first-tier family. Bridge Point will help us achieve that position," Scott continued.

But even after those words, Cassian remained unaffected. His gaze seemed to say that any family did not matte

    Benecio, the President of the GPC, glared at Andres, signaling him to sit down quietly like the others. Argon's delegation was the first to arrive at the headquarters. That was to be expected since Argon was one of the countries that produced high-quality weapons.The existence of the Soul Essence could cause serious problems for Argon's weapon sales. Other countries would likely prefer to buy Cassian's newest energy weapon since it could kill easily. Anyone who possessed a weapon like that would instantly have a powerful military."I understand that all of you here are anxious about the Weltarian Commander breaking the rules. He secretly produced a dangerous weapon and didn't report it to the GPC like he was supposed to," Benecio began before anyone could raise their hand to speak.He pointed at the screen behind him, which showed drone footage taken from the live national broadcasts. The GPC had quickly deployed its IT team to erase all leaked footage from public access. As a result

    "You can still be with me while caring for your family's business. I don't mind that," Cassian replied with slight confusion."I know," Elara tightened her grip on his hand. "But I want to follow you wherever you go, without thinking about anything else.""Still, they're your family. You don't have to go that far just for me.""We can build a family of our own in the future. Besides, I want to be the place you come home to. I saw you when you stepped down from that stage alone, Cassian. Can't we be home for each other?"Cassian fell silent. He did not expect Elara to leave her family to be with him. As someone who had lost his parents at a young age, he could not agree with her decision to walk away from Samuel and Hannah.But at the same time, his heart softened when she spoke about home. He did not really have one. There was no place in this world to which he truly belonged. The elders were there because he was the last descendant of the Valoric bloodline. The soldiers respected him

    Hannah hugged Elara tightly, knowing she would rarely see her again. Whether her daughter was returning to the military or following Cassian to a faraway place, Elara would not be around much anymore."You've grown stronger than I ever imagined. May every step you take be guided by the strength I see in you!" she said, holding Elara even tighter."Thank you for everything, Dad and Mom," Elara wiped the tears that had welled up in her eyes. "I will cut all ties with our family because I love you. I don't want bad people to target you, so I'm sorry if I can't see you again later.""It's alright, Sweetheart. We had already prepared ourselves for the day you would leave to chase what you truly want," Samuel replied, hugging both Hannah and Elara. He kissed his daughter's forehead several times, just like he used to when she was a baby.When he first held Elara in his arms, he felt like he never wanted to let her go. But as time passed, he understood that one day, he had to."I will come t

    Elara watched Cassian from a distance, her smile growing with every second. Before he became a Commander, he never seemed to contact his family like the other soldiers regularly did. He also rarely took any days off, as if he had no home to return to.Out of concern, Elara had gently asked him about his family. The answer he gave was, "I can't contact anyone in my family yet because I need to prove myself first. It's not something you need to worry about. I'm sure I can make them acknowledge me!"But even after he became a Commander, Elara never saw him contact his family to "celebrate" his taking over the military. He had sent a few messages to a mysterious number about his progress, but not to rejoice.The elders had high expectations for Cassian since he was the only one left from the Valoric family. But when Elara saw how they interacted now, she knew the elders truly cared about Cassian. She also believed Cassian felt the same toward them because he worked so hard to make them pr

    Cassian stopped in his tracks when the five elders walked toward him. He had planned to visit them after this victory because GPC would try to arrest him. However, their presence at the border was a surprise.They rarely appeared in public unless it was related to Valoric. Right now, Cassian was not announcing to the world that he was the last remaining descendant of that legendary family. In other words, the elders actually had no reason to be here."Are you alright, son?" Wendell reached out his hand as he stood in front of Cassian.That simple gesture brought Cassian back to the moment he survived the destruction of his family. Back then, Wendell had asked him the same question while carrying him away. He cried for weeks after losing his parents at such a young age.The elders knew little about caring for a child, so they would only feed Cassian when he cried. His lips twitched, holding back a laugh as he remembered how Elowen and Clarissa had tried to be substitute mothers for him

    The chosen soldiers waited at the border shore, standing tall as they looked straight at the sea. The sun had already set, and the lights that had been installed only illuminated a small area. The border was extremely dark, surrounded by mountains on every side.The smell of blood still lingered in the air, a sign that the infiltration attempt by the Narman troops had taken place not long ago. All of them had been defeated by the soldiers of Weltaria when they tried to force their way in. A large-scale war was avoided thanks to that duel.In the previous war, Arlo had refused the challenge of a duel because he held complete control over his country. But this time, it was different, as even his own people had grown tired of being used by him. As a result, the ongoing conflict was prevented and ended in less than three days."Everyone, get ready!" Ruth shouted when Weltaria's fleets were seen approaching the border.All the soldiers immediately stood at attention and saluted in unison.
