"You have to pay taxes to us," a thug said with a scaring expression.

Despite his fear, Morgan still had the courage to fight the thugs. "We already pay taxes to the state. No need to pay to a bunch of thugs like you!"

"If you don't want to pay, we have no choice but to destroy this place."

"The police can help us deal with this problem. After all, you're at fault here for illegal taxation and harassing the residents."

The thugs burst into laughter.

"We are from the Twilight. Do you still dare to fight us, huh?!"

The faces of the investors changed in an instant. Who did not know about the Twilight Family in this city?

As people involved in the business world, they often crossed paths with underworld organizations.

The Twilight's position was higher than theirs. If they insisted on fighting back, they were the ones who would suffer.

"Are you even aware of your current position? You should have bowed to us long ago!"

Derek immediately knelt, "Please forgive our ignorance. We'll stop thi

    The teenagers' commotion drew attention from others in the park when the word Commander was mentioned. They were all surprised by Cassian's unexpected presence. How could they have failed to notice him?Cassian smiled as he saw the teenagers panic. He amazed them, but seeing him in person must have made them feel a subtle pressure. Even though he had suppressed his aura, it was ineffective against people not trained to resist such energy."W-Was that homeless man really you?" the girl asked, her mouth open in disbelief."Yes, I remember you gave me bread and money," Cassian replied with a light laugh. He was not expecting to run into the same girl, but seeing that she had grown into a teenager made him realize how much time had passed."But what kind of mission would make you become a homeless person?" a young man asked, curious. His legs felt weak standing before Cassian, but he did not feel the urge to run away."That was during my early days in the military," Cassian explained, wit

    The man called Mr. Hart raised his hand, and the music stopped. Everything fell silent immediately. Only the soft clinking of wine glasses on the table could be heard, filling the silence with a tense mood.Under the lights of the luxury villa, his face was clear. He had only one eye. The other was gone, replaced by an empty socket and a rough scar around the wrinkled skin. His single eye was sharp enough to make anyone bow their head without daring to ask."The situation in Narman is not good either. We can no longer use Arlo since he is dead. Then, the compensation for his violation was to give the Narman border region entirely to Weltaria. We cannot attack from there if we want to finish off the Commander," Marcellus explained carefully.Hart laughed so loud that his chair creaked. "I never said we would go to Weltaria to finish that kid off. My time is too valuable. He will come to me himself!""What about the Soul Essence? I did not expect a Valoric descendant to remain alive and

    In the central office, Benecio was busy reviewing reports about Narman and Weltaria. It turned out that Defense Minister Virgil had submitted a report about Arlo breaking the peace agreement by starting a war. However, no one from Narman had reported Cassian for breaking the rules by targeting civilian zones or using the Soul Essence."Are the Narman people so busy with their new conflict that they don't care enough to accuse the Commander?" Benecio lifted his head from the pile of documents and glanced at Judith, his assistant.Judith adjusted her glasses before answering, "I have sent a delegation there to get more information. But from what I see in the data, the Narman people don't care that the Commander broke the rules.""Didn't Lieutenant General Neron want to control Narman after the Emperor died? He should have filed a report that the Commander broke the rules.""Emperor Arlo had become a dictator a long time ago. His death brought a big change. Even if someone else wants to

    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
