Andrius had spoken many famous quotes back at the Western Frontline. One of them would be ‘never lose an inch of land, never leave a man behind.’ He had said that when Severus was surrounded by a thousand enemy soldiers while having run out of ammo. Severus had been in a desperate situation, and he and his team had already given up. It was Andrius who had stepped up and volunteered to retrieve his brother-in-arms. He led the charge into the enemy and saved Severus, bringing him and his team back to the base safely. He then taught Severus martial arts and the tactics of war with reservations. To Severus, Andrius was like a God or a parent, someone whom he would serve for his entire life and pledge his loyalty to. When he finally saw Andrius after a while, he could not hold back his excitement. “Get up first, Severus.” Andrius clearly remembered when he left the Western Frontline, Severus was serving at an important mountain pass, in charge of defense. He asked, “Why aren
It would be a great opportunity to change one’s life and should not be missed because such a chance would never happen again. At River Helm, after Anthony received the news, the excitement kept him up all night. He might be the richest man in the city, but he could not dominate every aspect with his wealth. Other than him, there were three major families in Sumeria. Any one of the three families might pale in comparison to the Hendersons, but when they teamed up, their combined business chains and manpower were large as they spread across the military, politics and the business worlds. They would be powerful enough to rival the Hendersons. Now with the new military governor and the Wolf King’s arrival, Anthony spotted a chance to change the situation, or a chance to boost his name to new heights. As long as he could win the favor of and leave an impression on the Wolf King, the Hendersons could emerge a victor from this competition for control over the city. Then, they would
In the next few days, everything was peaceful and smooth. With the instructors from the military factory supervising the site, the assembly of the large machinery was completed smoothly, and the operators had gotten used to operating the machines. All they needed was the safety inspection from the General Administration of Quality Supervision and the stamp of approval, then they could start the project. Everything was progressing accordingly. On this particular day, Luna was charting out the next phase of the company’s project in her office. Danni, her secretary, rushed into the office and said, “Ms. Crestfall, the people from the GAQS are here. Director Densel Powell is leading the team himself. They are already at the site.” Luna immediately put her work aside and said, “Let’s go have a look.” At the construction site, a bloated middle-aged man was pointing at the machines. The employees of New Moon Corporation followed him around timidly and dared not raise their voi
The company could not wait any longer. Once the General Administration of Quality Supervision destroyed the machines, even if Mayor Freely could make it back, Luna would have no explanation for the situation. Disheartened, she returned to the office. Once the whole company heard the news, everyone drowned in anxiety. Meanwhile, in Team Five’s office, Andrius was engrossed in reading a military newspaper on the couch. Fatty Frank rushed in. He panted heavily as he said, “Boss, Boss! Something bad has happened!” Andrius frowned. “What? I thought everything was going smoothly.” “Sigh…” Fatty Frank gasped for air and furrowed his brows. “Boss, you have no idea what just happened. The General Administration of Quality Supervision, or GAQS, came with the director, Densel Powell leading the team. “He said our machines don’t meet the safety requirements and that they have potential safety hazards, thus they must be destroyed! He’s gone back to bring his men here! What are we go
“Director!” The receptionist immediately called Densel’s phone and told him about Andrius’ ‘crimes’. “Someone from New Moon Corporation is here! The arrogant jerk beat us all up and wanted to see you, Director Powell! Director, if you don’t come back now, he will beat us all to death! Director, please come back!” Densel was infuriated when he received the call. He was fuming with anger. “I’ll be right there! I want to see which motherf*cker is that audacious to beat our men up! He must have a death wish!” He hung up the phone. The receptionist grinned and scoffed at Andrius. The director was furious, and the punk would be dead in no time. With his arrogance fueled, he got up and bellowed at Andrius, “Punk, the director is coming over! If you don’t want to die, kneel and apolo-…” Andrius cackled with laughter when the receptionist continued to be arrogant. Sometimes, violence was the only way to silence someone. Slap! Andrius slapped the man again. His blow was so
“Hey, punk!” Densel went up to Andrius with a grim expression. He glared at Andrius and yelled, “If you don’t give me a satisfying answer today, you won’t even rest in peace when you have your funeral in three days!” Andrius scoffed. “Answer?” He sized Densel up from top to bottom. He grunted coldly and asked, “You are the one who really should give me a satisfying answer. Tell me, what is up with the machines given to New Moon Corporation?” Densel said coldly, “Your machines did not meet the safety requirements. They contain potential safety hazards, so they must be destroyed!” Andrius squinted, which was a dangerous sign. “The machines were produced by the military factory, and you are telling me they failed the safety requirements?” Densel scoffed. He added, “I don’t care where the machines are made. I call the shots for the safety inspections. If I say they failed, they failed!” Andrius finally knew what was going on. Densel was giving New Moon Corporation a hard
The person who shouted was the person in charge of the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Adam Strong. However, when Densel saw Adam, he looked more delighted than ever. He went up to the man attentively and said, “Adam, my brother-in-law, you are here! Come in! Come in!” Brother-in-law?! The minister of the General Administration of Quality Supervision was Densel’s brother-in-law? No wonder Densel showed no hesitation when voicing his threats. His relationship with Adam fueled his arrogance. “You punk…” Densel continued to mock and sneered at Andrius when he brought Adam into the lobby. “You never would have thought that the help that you called is my brother-in-law, who is my ally, not yours! “I can also tell you that in terms of quality supervision and safety inspection in Sumeria, we hold the utmost authority, and our words are the law and order here.” He continued to be arrogant and disrespectful. Behind him, Adam’s expression turned grim. Andrius gru
Densel cried a river on the spot. “Adam, my brother-in-law! My sister loves me a lot. Even if you don’t help me…” Slap! Adam slapped him once more. “Help? You dug your own grave, so who can you blame?” “A-Adam! You slapped me again!?” Adam slapped him once more. “Yeah, I have to slap some sense into you! Be grateful I didn’t slap you to death!” If Andrius investigated what Densel said, not even Adam could escape from the responsibility, so why would he cover Densel anymore?Densel got scared from all the slaps. He stopped talking and cried like a woman who had lost her child. “Stop crying! I’ll break all your teeth!” Adam shouted, silencing Densel immediately. Densel zipped his mouth and endured the grievance. Then, Adam contacted the authorities and made a report on Densel. “The ex-director of the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Densel Powell, has abused his power and position. Please take him away.” The police arrived after a while and brought Dens
