Chapter 1054 Do You Still Want Me To Kneel


    "Quick!"


    "Quick!"


    Just as Morris Cross knelt down in front of Nathan, sounds of people shouting as well as orderly


    footsteps pounding on the ground could be heard from outside.


    Soon enough, Fang appeared in his military uniform; he was followed by his squad and other


    warriors.


    He marched in while ordering his men, "Surround this area. No living creature is allowed to leave


    without my permission. How dare this family try to hurt the General! It looks like they''ve gotten tired


    of living!"


    "Yes, Sir!"

    Almost instantaneously, the Cross n was boxed in by Fang''s five thousand warriors.


    Fang and his squad marched up to Nathan, where they stood to attention and saluted him.


    "General!" they shouted, their voices booming with respect.


    General?


    When the Cross n heard Fang and his squad address Nathan as such, they started trembling


    uncontrobly.


    This was especially the case for Morris, who was quaking so badly he was nearly t on the ground.


    Nathan looked at Fang in surprise. "Why are you here?"


    Fang grinned. "We were running a drill with troops from Brimmopolis. The gist of it is that something


    happened in Brimmopolis and they needed the North Army''s assistance, so we''de to take care


    of the opposing forces together. We finished the drill and were on our way back to the North via


    Johnstone City when we received news that you are here and that the Cross n has ill intentions


    towards you. So, we came over as fast as we could."


    Ah... So that''s why.


    Nathan nodded, then turned to instruct Fang, "Get all irrelevant people out of here."


    Fang immediately had his squad round up the n members and their subordinates, sequestering


    them to the front yard. All the dead and injured were carried outside, too.


    Soon, Nathan, Colin, and Fang and his squad were left in the hall alongside Morris Cross.


    Colin personally brought a chair over to Nathan, who casually sat himself down.


    Nathan gazed at the trembling Morris kneeling before him. "Raise your head," he instructed


    monotonously.


    Morris had no choice but to do so. Huge beads of sweat had formed on his forehead; his face was


    filled with terror.


    Nathan looked at him coldly. "Do you still want me to kneel before you?”


    Morris shook like a leaf when he heard Nathan''s question. He quickly went on the floor and bowed,


    knocking his head on the tile. With a trembling voice, Morris then squeaked, "General, I''m sorry. I


    was wrong! Since we''re both Crosses and we''re distant rtives, I''m begging you to give me


    another chance!"


    Nathan stared at him indifferently. "Do you know why I came to look for you personally?"


    "Because we were dumb enough to offend you, General. We deserve any and all punishment!"


    "Yes, you do. But other than the grudges between you and me, there''s a more important reason."


    Morris lifted his head slightly and looked at Nathan. "Another reason?" he asked tentatively, "I really


    don''t know how else I''ve offended you, General. Please enlighten me."


    "Do you remember The Omniscience?"


    With pupils dting in disbelief, Morris stared at Nathan as fearpletely engulfed him. Morris was


    about to instinctively deny any knowledge of his involvement with The Omniscience when his eyes


    met Nathan''s cold, omnipotent gaze.


    He quickly averted his gaze and lowered his head again. "Yes, I do."


    "You joined The Omniscience?"


    Morris clenched his teeth. "Yes. When we first expanded our business overseas, we were regrly


    met with unfair treatment. Someone told us that if we joined The Omniscience, we wouldn''t be


    ostracized or bullied anymore, so...”
