Chapter 1895 The Aftermath of Assassination
ept it! Emmanuel, you have to ept it! Sage and Eve thought.
For a moment, time seemed to stand still. Emmanuel closed his eyes,
drawing in a deep breath to steady himself. When he opened them again,
determination had reced hesitation. With a crisp movement, he snapped
to attention and saluted.
“Emmanuel Lowe, epting the appointment,” he dered, his voice
unwavering.
collective sigh of relief filled the room as Sage and Eve felt the burden of
uncertainty lift from their shoulders. Their faces lit up with joy and pride as
they enthusiastically saluted Emmanuel
“Sage Payne, Northern Region’s 3–Star Lieutenant General of Field Forces,
reporting to the Commander!” Sage proimed, his voice filled with pride.
“Eve Thompson, Northern Region’s 3–Star Lieutenant General of Logistics,
reporting to the Commander!” Eve followed suit, her voice ringing with equal

enthusiasm.
Emmanuel’s heart swelled as he watched his trusted allies express their
support. He nodded appreciatively, acknowledging their loyalty with a
respectful salute.
Once the excitement had subsided, Emmanuel turned to Santiago, his brow
furrowing with concern. “What’s the deal with the Wolf Warrior Unit? I
new
remember it was disbanded by presidential order back then. How can it be
reinstated now?<b>” </b>
Santiago’s expression grew somber, the lines on his face deepening. “That’s
exactly why I was in such a hurry to reach you. Fortunately, you made it back
just in time!<i>” </i>
From his grave expression, Emmanuel sensed that something major <i>had </i>
urred. Years ago, the Northern Region suffered devastating losses due to
his earlier decisions. In response, the furious president ordered the
permanent dissolution of the Wolf Warrior Unit.

A year ago, when Santiago asked him to return to the Northern Region, he
had mentioned that even if Emmanuel agreed, restoring him to his previous
rank would be nearly impossible. Yet now, Santiago was reviving the wor
Warrior Unit and reinstating Emmanuel’s title as a 5–Star Honored Bottle
General. Such a drastic turn of events could only mean one thing–powerful
forces were at y behind the scenes.
Santiago confirmed Emmanuel’s suspicions with his next words. 24 days ago,
the president was assassinated. Although he survived, he was severely
injured and is now in a vegetative state in the ICU. This incident has shocked
the world.”
“What?” Emmanuel’s mind raced, quickly calcting the timeline. The date of
the assassination attempt coincided with their departure by ship to return to
Chanaea. Could there be a connection?
“Commander Adkins,” Eve interjected, “wasn’t there a top–tier bodyguard
assigned to the president? With such protection, how could anyone have
managed to assassinate him?”

highest–ranking general in Chanaea’s military, he had ess to almost all
ssified information.
Sage, too, was intrigued. Although it was widely known that the Southern
Lannister and Northern Wolf Warrior were the most formidable martial forces
in Chanaea in recent years, the president’s bodyguard was reputed to be
equally impressive. They had never faced this legendary figure themselves,
so they wondered about his true capabilities.
Santiago’s tone grew somber. “Indeed, the president’s bodyguard was
renowned for his skills. But even the mightiest warriors are not immune to the
ravages of time. Eventually, the old guard must give way to the new.”
His implication was clear–the once–legendary bodyguard had passed away.
The gravity of the situation settled over the room like a heavy cloak. Santiago pressed on, outlining the political ramifications of the assassination attempt.

“The country cannot be without leadership. In light of this crisis, Congress has
passed a resolution to elect a new president within three months to handle
national affairs.”
He paused for effect, ensuring he had their full attention before continuing.
“There are three candidates for the presidency. The first is Ethan Hale, the
former president’s personally appointed Prime Minister. He’s a trusted
confidant who has dedicated his life to serving the nation and its people.”
Santiago moved on to the second candidate. “Catherine Adams, the
Secretary of the Treasury. Her name might not immediately ring a bell, but
her background is significant.”
Emmanuel’s curiosity was piqued. “What is her background?”
Santiago <i>replied </i>solemnly, “Shees from the Zelinsky family of Zovince
and is married to <i>Teddy </i>Mole.”
Emmanuel’s eyes widened. “Teddy Mole’s wife?” he eximed, his mind
already racing to connect the dots between the assassination attempt and

this revtion.
Santiago noticed Emmanuel’s growing agitation and raised a hand, “Don’t
jump to conclusions just yet. There’s still the third candidate <i>to </i>consider,”
“Who’s the third candidate?” Emmanuel asked. “Could it be someone
connected to the Holy Trinity?”
A glimmer of pride shed in Santiago’s eyes at his disciple’s astute guess.
“You may seem naive, but you’re quite sharp!” He chuckled. “The third
candidate is Mason Morgan, the Secretary of Agriculture.
“Mason Morgan?” The name caught Emmanuel off guard. He wondered if he
should have brought that half–dead ke along–could this Mason Morgan
be another of ke’s brothers?
Santiago confirmed Emmanuel’s suspicions. “ording to our intelligence,
Mason Morgan is likely the younger brother of Freya Morgan, Queen of the
Dark Night Inds, and the third eldest among the Morgan family siblings.”
