Chapter 477: Summon
Vale’s eyes widened upon hearing those words. He didn’t expect Pierce to make that suggestion.“What the hell are you talking about?” he asked, the annoyance evident in his voice. “Why would she join the intelligence department?”“Because her knowledge is crucial to the mission, and like what Reynald said, the knowledge gap increases over time,” Pierce explained, clicking his tongue.“Why? You don’t want to? You’ll have Zerenette under your authority. What is there to lose?”Vale didn’t answer immediately. Instead, he clenched his fists, doing his best to control his emotions.For other people, Zerenette working in the intelligence department wouldn’t be a problem. But Vale thought it could bring him to a disadvantage.It’s because Zerenette was somehow more intelligent than all of them, and if it was confirmed, then Vale would lose his position as the head to a mere child.“She’s not suitable for the intelligence department,” Vale said, the finality evident in his voice.Pierce tilte
Chapter 476: Knowledge Gap
The board of directors exchanged glances. Halden, Vale, and Caleb were doubtful, while Pierce and Nancy were intrigued.Reynald, standing beside her, folded his arms but didn’t intervene.His eyes flickered with quiet satisfaction. He wanted to see how far she’d go. But if things went out of hand, that’s the time Reynald would include himself again in the conversation.“I’m sure that you’ve seen the drawing already. It wasn’t just a random structure. It was connected to Project Nuclear, a dangerous experiment they have been creating for the past years.”Zerenette paused, then spoke again,“If Devoran Corporation continues with those experiments, we won’t just lose the Legion, but the entire balance of Colossia’s military structure.”The board of directors couldn’t believe that they were hearing those words from a young woman.And the way that she speaks… It was full of authority. She doesn’t even have any hesitations while saying what was on her mind.Also, they were aware that Zeren
Chapter 475: Let Me Prove My Worth
“You know what I’m capable of. But why are you placing me on something that wasn’t my expertise in the first place?” Zerenette added, not even hiding the annoyance in her tone.Upon hearing those words, Vale chuckled sarcastically.“And what’s the expertise you’re talking about, Zerenette?” he asked, raising an eyebrow. “Someone of your age doesn’t have any expertise yet. You’re at the age of exploring things.”Zerenette clenched her fists.Before, the board was only subtle in showing disapproval of her being a part of the Legion, given that Reynald was backing her up.However, this time, as a few years had passed and they had gained more power, they aren’t bothering to hide it anymore.“She’s capable in the strategy department. Everyone knows that, but you’re just denying it,” Pierce said, his tone low and authoritative, looking Zerenette in the eye.“I’m not defending her, but I’m the one who worked with her before she got sick. You don’t have the right to invalidate her capabilitie
Chapter 474: Finance Department
Everyone looked at him, the smiles evident on their faces as it had been a while since they saw the current ruler of Colossia.“Good day, Reynald,” the five of them greeted back.It was too late when they realized that Reynald wasn’t alone. Someone else walked beside him.Their eyes widened upon seeing who it was.Zerenette, no longer in her disguise, but dressed in a fitted black uniform marked with the Legion’s insignia, something only the higher-ups were allowed to wear.‘I never thought that Dad kept a uniform for me even after all those years,’ she thought, smiling in the back of her mind. ‘This still fits like he’d known how grown I would be.Then, both of them stopped at the front.The board of directors looked at Reynald, acknowledging his presence, but they couldn’t help but look at the young woman on the side.Some were filled with disbelief, while amazement was evident on the others’ faces.“I know this may be confusing for you, but you’re not seeing it wrong,” Reynald said
Chapter 473: Board of Directors
Reynald paused, then he spoke,“Not only should the employees know about her return. The board of directors must be informed, too.”Upon hearing those words, Oliver immediately knew what Reynald wanted to do.“You’ve got to be kidding me.”But it only shocked him to see the seriousness in Reynald’s face.“I understand that they need to know about Zerenette’s return, but combining it with the statement you said about the Legion’s business side…”His voice trailed off, while Reynald’s lips curved into a smirk.“Yes,” Reynald said, his voice lower than before as he looked Oliver in the eye. “I wanted her to take an active part when it comes to business.”Oliver’s jaw fell.‘Instead of being in the strategy department, helping us on the ongoing mission, he’ll place her directly in something that requires higher experience and authorization?’“You told me to recognize her skills, and that’s exactly what I’ve been doing,” Reynald said, looking Oliver in the eye, his brows furrowing.“But wh
Chapter 472: Strategy Skills
Even though the other Legion V members had an idea about it, the confirmation still sent shivers down their spines.It was hard to ignore the bad news.“If the Devoran succeeds, he’ll have an army that doesn’t need rest, food, or loyalty,” Reynald spoke, his voice low but resonant. “Colossia will fall, not through invasion, but through infiltration,” he added. “And once he starts to infiltrate this country, it will be hard to stop. The next generations will suffer.”Charlie clenched his jaw. “He’s preparing for a war that hasn’t started yet.”Reynald looked at his employees, then at Charlie and Oliver.His expression became colder and more determined.“We’ll make it our mission to end it before it begins.”He added, “Locate and dismantle every ongoing project under Devoran’s authority. I don’t care how deep we have to dig. There could be an official project that they’re using for illegal purposes.”Oliver’s gaze steadied, yet his brows furrowed. “That includes Project Nuclear?”Re
