"At first, I thought this was just a routine report. But the number of troops being moved is too large," Silas said.Callen picked up one of the documents and read through it quickly. "They really prepared everything well. These troops were moved little by little to avoid drawing attention."He paused for a moment before continuing. "But if all of them are combined, the number is enough to surround an elite force."Callen continued reading the report for a while. His eyes moved from one red dot to another on the map before finally stopping at a specific location."Blackwater Summit."Silas nodded slowly. "I noticed it too." He pulled out a more detailed map and placed it in the center of the table. "Most of their movements are heading there. Lucas never intended to play fair."Callen's finger pointed at several locations around Blackwater Summit. He tapped a few spots one after another."They're stationed far enough away to avoid attention. But they're all within a distance that allow

"I'm going to be honest with you, Vito. The Supreme General is guaranteed to lose this time," Matthew said with complete confidence.Vito raised an eyebrow and began taking a piece of meat from his plate. "You sound very confident. Even though the Supreme General's influence in Valdera is almost as great as the Emperor's. If an open war breaks out, no one can guarantee the outcome."Matthew gave a faint smile. "That's the problem. I'm not talking about an open war."Vito stopped chewing while Matthew continued his explanation."The Emperor is allowing both sides to bring ten people. But that's only what appears on the surface. The Emperor has been moving troops in secret. Without anyone knowing.""Most of them don't even realize they're being relocated."Vito narrowed his eyes. "Including the Supreme General?" he asked doubtfully."It's a high-level secret operation that's only known by people inside the Imperial Vanguard," Matthew replied with the same confidence."As you know, the o

The next morning, the entire city of Valdera was filled with rumors. At first, only a few people were talking about it.Before noon arrived, almost everyone had already heard the news. An unknown person had attacked the Sullivan family mansion.Although the media tried to cover up the story, the damage was far too severe to hide. Some roads around the area were still closed for repairs.Gossip spreads much faster than official news. Vito was sitting in his office while reading the morning reports.Several newspapers were lying on his desk. One of them contained a small article about a "security incident" in the Sullivan family's territory.Vito snorted."A security incident?" he muttered. "That's a nice way to describe a mansion that's almost been flattened to the ground."He put down the newspaper. Then he picked up his phone. His thoughts immediately went to one person.The Supreme General. It didn't take a genius to guess who was responsible.Vito quickly dialed Callen's number. Th

No one moved. Those thousands of people needed several seconds to understand what they had just heard. Then anger exploded."What?!""THE EMPEROR KIDNAPPED A CHILD?!""That's insane!""He's completely lost his mind!"Angry voices filled the plaza. Many soldiers who had been standing just moments ago were now clenching their fists. Their expressions darkened.Even darker than when they had heard about Project Genesis. Because this time, the victim was a child."He's holding a little girl hostage?""That's a coward's act!""Since when does the Emperor use methods like that?""There's no honor left anymore!"More and more voices rose. Their anger couldn't be hidden at all.Rosalin watched their reactions without saying a word because she felt the same way. Lucas had crossed the line.Suddenly, a soldier stepped forward. "I'll join!" His loud voice echoed throughout the plaza.Another soldier stepped forward as well. "Me too!""And me!""Us too!"One voice after another rang out. The numb

Thousands of soldiers glanced at one another. Some looked hesitant, while others lowered their heads as they thought about the question. Of course, they respected the Supreme General.But the principles of the Valdera military had been ingrained into them for years. It wasn't easy for them to answer."What does he mean?""What exactly happened?""Is he asking for personal help?""But that goes against military rules..."No one dared to say it out loud. Finally, Rosalin stepped forward."Supreme General, using the military for personal interests violates the principles and laws of the Valdera military," she said firmly.Whispers immediately spread among the soldiers."General Rosalin is right.""We really can't do that.""The military isn't anyone's personal tool."Many people looked uncomfortable saying those words. But they knew it was the truth."Therefore..." Rosalin continued as she took a step forward. "I won't move as a general of the Valdera military."Many eyes widened instant

"If I mobilize the entire military now, Lucas will know," Callen said in a flat voice. "And if Lucas feels threatened, the first person who'll suffer the consequences will be Lily."Allison fell silent after hearing that answer. Even Oliver, who was standing beside her, couldn't argue with that logic.Callen ended the call without saying anything else. Then he opened the jeep door and stepped out into the cold night air.The guards were still on duty even though it was already late at night.At first, no one paid attention to his arrival. But a few seconds later, one of the soldiers on guard widened his eyes when he saw the figure stepping out of the jeep."Wait," the soldier muttered while narrowing his eyes. "Is that..."Another soldier turned in the same direction and immediately froze in place. Shock spread across his face."SUPREME GENERAL!"That shout caused more heads to turn toward the gate. Within seconds, dozens of soldiers straightened their backs on instinct.Their eyes fi
