    As he entered the military region, many soldiers greeted him respectfully upon seeing him. James


    nodded and went straight for the office.


    Smack!


    Before he could enter Henry’s office, he heard amotioning from inside.


    “I’m warning you, ck Shadow. Release him now, or else you’ll face the consequences.”


    James could hear rebukesing from inside.


    Opening the door, he could see an elderly man in a military uniform pointing his finger at Henry. “This is


    the Capital, not the Southern ins. You don’t call the shots around here.”


    Henry, who did not dare utter a single word in retaliation, stood up and greeted James respectfully


    upon noticing his arrival.


    “Emperor.”


    “I don’t care if James is here. Release him now,” the elderly man said coldly.


    “Is that so?” James said nonchntly.


    The elderly man turned his head. Upon seeing James, he yelled, “You came at just the right time.


    Release Halvor Tuckson at once.”


    Halvor Tuckson was the Patriarch of the Tucksons. A while ago, James came across the Tuckson


    family because of Delh Kimberley’s matter and abducted Halvor. Though he wanted to make a move


    against him, the chain of events that followed prevented him from doing so. As such, he could only


    temporarily imprison Halvor in a dungeon.


    James looked at the elderly man before him. He was wearing a military uniform and a five–star badge


    on his shoulder.


    James recognized him. The elderly man was a former Emperor andmander–in–chief of the Red


    me Army who assumed the position before Theodore Johnston. He had long retired after reaching


    old age. However, even though he was no longer in position, he was still a renowned figure in the


    military.


    “Yasir Parker, what are you doing here?” Looking at him, James said coldly, “If I’m not mistaken, you


    should be almost ny years old. What are you doing out here when you’re supposed to enjoy your


    retirement?”


    Henry was standing by the side. Though he wanted tough, he had to hold it in. Yasir was a former


    commander, so Henry did not dare utter a single word when faced with rebuke. All this while, Yasir had


    been applying pressure on him. Henry had no choice but to avoid him at all costs. Now that James had


    returned, he breathed a sigh of relief.


    “James, release Halvor immediately. There are some people you can’t mess with,” Yasir threatened


    coldly. “You don’t call the shots around here,” James said nonchntly. “Halvor Tucksonmitted


    many crimes. I’ll never release him before the investigation ispleted. Mr. Parker, please return at


    once.


    Once I’ve finished investigating the matter, I’ll visit you personally and inform you of the oue.”


    “James…” Yasir gritted his teeth.


    “Men, send themander back,” James yelled.


    Immediately, two soldiers walked in. However, the moment they saw Yasir, they froze and looked at


    one another, unsure of what to do.


    “What are you standing there for? Hurry up and escort Mr. Parker back. If anything happens to him


    while he’s in the military region, you will be held responsible for this,” James reprimanded them.


    “Understood.”


    “Please follow us, Mr. Parker.”


    Yasir red at James and said coldly, “You will regret this, James. Just wait.”


    Then, he turned to leave.


    “Pfft!”


    The moment he left, Henry burst into a peal ofughter.


    “You’re finally back, James. Yasir has been pressuring me all this while. I couldn’t stand it any longer.


    Only you have the audacity and the authority to rebuff him. Damn, that feels good.”
