King’s Awakening - Chapter 370
Chapter 370: Chapter 370: The Matters that Martial Department Can’t Handle, I’ll Handle!
Upon receiving the command, Kylin immediately made a phone call to Asher.
However, soon, Kylin furrowed his brows and said in a peculiar tone, “Asher has already arrived. He’s been waiting downstairs, just waiting for me to contact him. He’s coming up now.”
Oh?
White Mitchell was taken aback, wondering what Asher was playing at.
Shortly after, White Mitchell met the Commander Asher of the Sayon armed forces at Kylin and Beckett’s residence.
However, the current state of Asher was far from good, one could even say he looked miserable.
Asher’s right hand was completely covered in plaster and his face bore a savage slap mark. He looked utterly disheartened, much like an eggplant beaten by frost.
As soon as he saw White Mitchell, Asher fell to his knees in front of him.
“Sir, forgive me, I betrayed your trust. I should die!” Asher said, looking utterly dejected.
White Mitchell’s face was cold as iron as he demanded sternly, “What on earth happened?”
Hearing this, Asher let out a long sigh. As the saying goes, don’t air your dirty laundry in public, but at this point, he had nothing left to hide.
Turns out, ever since Noah Weiden’s death, Asher had been keeping in touch with the higher-ups in the military department. However, the Highest Commander of the Military Department, Jayden, was out leading a training mission.
Moreover, White Mitchell’s identity was top secret, so he couldn’t casually reveal this to other people.
This led to the situation at hand.
Jeremiah Weiden, with the twelve flying tigers of the military department, had defied orders and forcefully returned.
Though he had not yet arrived, the advance troops had already entered Sayon and directly took over the Sayon armed forces.
As the saying goes, one rank higher can kill a person, let alone the arrival of the elite twelve flying tigers of the military department.
Whether in terms of position or actual power, Asher couldn’t compete with the people brought by Jeremiah Weiden.
Asher had stood his ground and suffered the consequences.
Currently, he had been suspended from his duties and severely injured, but the key issue was that the entire Sayon armed forces had fallen under Jeremiah Weiden’s control.
Asher knew White Mitchell was going to be angry, so without waiting for a summons, he came forward to apologize.
“Get up, you’ve tried your best. I’ll handle the rest.” In the face of Asher’s apology, White Mitchell couldn’t bear to blame him further. Asher had done everything he could.
If the military department couldn’t manage it, White Mitchell would solve it in his own way.
Hearing such words, a hint of desolation flashed in Asher’s eyes, and he couldn’t help but think of Noah Weiden’s fate.
If all twelve flying tigers fell, it would be a devastating blow to the military department.
As a member of the military department, although he disapproved of Jeremiah Weiden’s actions, he also didn’t want to see the department suffer such a calamity.
After a fierce internal struggle, Asher couldn’t refrain from pleading, “Sir, please give the military department another chance, I will definitely find a way to contact Commander Jayden.
If he knew about Jeremiah Weiden’s audacious move, he would definitely intervene and personally give you a satisfying response.
Please, sir, give me a bit more time, give the military department a bit more time.”
Asher knelt on the ground, pleading bitterly.
In response to Asher’s plea, White Mitchell coldly replied, “No need, I have given the military department enough time.
Since your military department can’t handle this situation, then I, White Mitchell, will take care of it for you.
From this moment on, you don’t need to interfere in this matter!”
“Kylin, see the guest off,” said White Mitchell expressionlessly.
“Sir, please give the military department another chance, please…” Asher continued begging earnestly.
But all he received in return was White Mitchell’s utterly indifferent face.
It’s over, White Mitchell is furious, the military department is finished this time!
Jeremiah Weiden, oh Jeremiah Weiden, this time you’ve really ruined the military department!
Asher was crying inside, but facing White Mitchell’s hard orders, he was powerless. He knew from the beginning, White Mitchell had never been the one to initiate a fight against the military department.
It was Noah Weiden, Jeremiah Weiden and the Weiden Family who crossed his line time and time again.
Now, White Mitchell is so intent on killing that he probably wouldn’t be stopped even by Commander Jayden, the Highest Commander of Military Department.
This is a catastrophe for the Military Department, equivalent to a total disaster!
Asher left the district in a lost and devastated state, looking up at the clear sky above, which seemed as ominous as storm clouds in his eyes.
Elsewhere, after Asher left, an order was quickly distributed to the heads of all major departments in Sayon.
[Effective immediately, all departments in Sayon, excluding the Military Department, are not allowed to interfere in the affairs of the Weiden family. Offenders will be subject to military law! –Order from the White Army Master!]
Wow!
As soon as the news was released, it caused an uproar among the various departments.
“Everyone, gather in my office within half an hour, fast! Fast! Fast!” Said Andrew, the head of Sayon, who was shocked and immediately summoned his colleagues after receiving the news.
At the same time, the heads of various departments hurriedly made their way to his office, even before Andrew summoned them.
This matter was of great importance, its impact no less significant than the incident with Myles the day before.
Ten minutes later, Andrew’s office was packed with department heads.
All who were present were powerful figures holding considerable authority in Sayon. To put it bluntly, under normal circumstances, a simple foot stomp from any of them would cause Sayon to shake.
As it stood, however, these departmental heads were restless, as if sitting on pins and needles.
“This is madness! Jeremiah Weiden is seeking his own doom! Didn’t he learn anything from what happened to Myles? He’s going to ruin Sayon!”
“Jeremiah Weiden has lost one grandson to disability and the other to death. While it’s understandable that he’s enraged, he doesn’t even realize who his enemy truly is.”
“Jeremiah acts without regard to law and propriety, arbitrarily calling upon the power of the Military Department without even a hint of notification. He’s clearly taking us for granted. Should we still care about his wellbeing?”
The crowd babbled on, indecisive about how to handle this situation.
At this point, Andrew, the head of Sayon, waved his hand and sternly said, “Silence!”
Upon hearing his command, the crowd immediately hushed, all eyes directed towards Andrew.
Andrew, seated in the central position, said forcefully with an iron expression, “Gentlemen, I believe we all know who has given the orders this time. I won’t waste time rehashing it. Today, I called you over here for one purpose.
Effective immediately, all departments in Sayon will cooperate in this operation. If anyone dares to leak information, I, Andrew, will not let them off!”
“Understood!”
The crowd stood in response, their eyes filled with a determination.
Jeremiah Weiden was being too audacious this time, completely disregarding the departments of Sayon. Since they were unable to handle him, the best they could do was to cooperate in every possible way with White Mitchell.
This time, they will make Jeremiah Weiden understand that Sayon is not his private backyard!
…
While the heads of numerous Sayon divisions were passing down orders, a black military helicopter slowly landed at Sayon Armed Forces’ helipad.
As the cabin door opened, an elderly figure appeared before everyone, his hair white but body robust.
“Salute to the instructor!”
The moment he appeared, the dozens of figures who had been waiting on the helipad kneeled in unison, their expressions extremely reverent.
Clearly, this was none other than the former Head Instructor of the Martial Department’s Flying Tigers and the Family Head of Weiden Family, Jeremiah Weiden!
“Thank you for making a special trip for my family matters.” Jeremiah responded with a stern face. Although his words held a hint of formality, his expression was filled with an air of expectation.
At this moment, a member of the Tiger Guard, who had arrived early in Sayon, reported, “Instructor, according to reliable news, all major departments in Sayon have begun to shrink their manpower today.
Even the local Patrol department near the Weiden Family has evacuated all their patrolmen, I’m afraid…”
Before the man could finish, Jeremiah interjected indifferently, “Andrew and others are just a bunch of worthless strays.
I’ve yet to exact my revenge for the murder of my grandson, Noah, in Sayon. It’s only natural that they’re tailing between their legs, fearing that I will ask them to be accountable.
Pay them no mind. Deliver a message on my behalf to the young man with the surname Mitchell. Three days later, I will hold a funeral for Noah, and I plan to use his blood as a sacrifice to my grandson’s spirit in heaven!
If he wants his friends and family to survive, he must obediently surrender his life. Otherwise, three days from now, I won’t spare a single one!!!”
