Fine! Fine!" the bandit shouted as he looked at Hugh's dark, cold eyes. "I'll tell you, so spare me, please!" Hugh let go of the bandit and gave him a breathing room. The torture was done, and now, it was his time to reap the rewards. "Who sent you the information?" Hugh asked. "We don't know who he is, but we know he is from an organization," the bandit said with his head down. Hugh looked at the bandit and saw that he was telling the truth.

Hugh sat right next to the commander of the whole army. The pressure he was feeling was the most immense that anyone had ever felt. He had to get sued to the pressure early, which was a thing that he could do since he had a strong body. The only thing that he could not numb down was the internal pressure he was feeling. One wrong move and he could get found out by the commander. There was no other else that could have done this job, and Hugh was ready to take on the mantle. "Let's head out," the…

Hugh picked up the skin from the floor and looked at it. It was very lifelike, and Hugh could feel the skin and the hair like it was real. Hugh would have thrown up if not for the fact that this might be the only thing that could keep him from dying. Right now, he needed to get to the commander's place. However, Beru had exhausted himself after that charade back at the camp. So, Hugh had to take on the mantle and go by himself.

"What happened?" Serena asked. At this point, most of the soldiers had gathered around Hugh and looked at him with anxious eyes. They wanted to know what happened to Beru. "It's okay," Hugh said. Immediately, everyone heaved a sigh of relief, including Serena. "He's on his way back now." However, Serena noticed that Hugh's face still had a severe look. She guessed that something terrible had happened. "Did we not get the assignment to search for Mia?" Serena asked. The soldiers looked at Hugh with…

Fortunately for Hugh, the commander did not seem to be trusty angry. He seemed to be intrigued at the reason for Hugh's answer. "A conqueror is someone who dominates. A king is a title. There's a difference," the commander said as he looked at Hugh with a sharp look. Hugh gulped. It was indeed the right decision to get the commander's respect by challenging him. This was a way of earning the concern that not most people would dare to try. Challenging the commander like this was like balancing on a steel…

Hugh swam harder and harder as he got slower and loser to the dark blue aura. Beru's was now in trouble, and he needed to save him. Just as the commander opened his mouth to order the killing of the platoon leader, Hugh finally touched the blue aura and connected with Beru. He did not simply connect with Beru, but simply overtook all of his senses. He could hear, see, smells, and touch everything as Beru felt it. This meant that Hugh could finally take control of Beru's vocal cords and speak. "I'm…

Although it felt good to finally teach the platoon leader the lesson that he was supposed to learn, it still posed a problem for Hugh and Jane. Now that the platoon leader was unconscious, the other upper ranks would get suspicious. If the platoon leader even missed one cabinet meeting, he would be searched for. This was not good for their plan, especially since they wanted to go to the search party for Mia. Ideally, they could have persuaded the platoon leader to ask the other upper ranks to join the…
