Chapter 2014
Sophia couldn''t stand it anymore. She red at Raida who was struggling to stand from his humiliating position. "Mr. Khaiden, I will ask you this onest time. Are you or are you not the Chief Military Governor?"
Raida turned an ugly shade of purple.
"What if I am? And what if I am not?" he answered evasively.
Sophia''s eyes shed with murder. "If you are, I will assist you as best as I can, and help avenge you for the shame you''ve suffered in Nathan''s hands. He needs to be stomped on so hard he loses prestige and dignity."
"If you''re not, however, ho ho. Sophiaughed as if to say that he is in massive trouble.
Raida gulped, his heart pounding frantically.
He was able to sense the malicious intent behind Sophia''sugh.
She was the one who mistook me for the Chief Military Governor! How could she me me for that and use it to destroy me?
He felt like a victim of injustice.
"Of course I am the Chief Military Governor," he said, standing upright and puffing out his chest.
"Then why weren''t you able to defeat him earlier?" Sophia was dubious.
"He is a very skilled fighter. I am no match for him," Raida answered truthfully.
"You''re right,” Sophia said, her doubts alleviated. “Even though Nathan is stripped of everything, his martial prowess is something that cannot be taken from him."
“I have not encountered anybody who was able to defeat him. I did not even expect you, the Chief Military Governor, to lose embarrassingly in his hands."
"Yes indeed. He is too skilled an opponent.” Raida nced around wildly, with beads of sweat forming on his temples.
"Even if you''re no match for him in singlebat, you do have the resources and authority to summon the Felidae Battalion to wipe out this punk." Sophia stared at Raida with narrowed eyes, her suspicion arising again.
"You suffered so much indignation and embarrassment in his hands. Are you really willing to let him get away with this?"
"It... it''s a small matter," Raida mumbled, turning red. "It''s unnecessary to summon an entire army for that."
"I don''t think so," Sophia said. "Unless, of course, you do not have the authority because you are an imposter?"
"I''m not an imposter," Raida said
quickly. "If you don''t believe me, kwill

minutes."
Felidae
"Okay, dial it," Sophia said. "If the Battalion shows up, I will apologize to you for ever
doubting you. And as a sign of my sincerity, I will do anything you want."
Raida looked at the seductive figure before him and gulped. "Anything?" he asked hoarsely.
"That''s right," Sophia smirked.
"However, if the Battalion does not arrive as you promised, and I find out that you are an imposter, you will not be allowed to leave Brimmopolis." "You''ll still be able to go back to the West, but only as a dead man."
Raida''s heart leaped with fear.
This Sophia is a princess of the Daviers. She was beautiful and seductive, his type of
wo man. However, he was not the
n
Chief Military Governor. It wasn''t meant to be. He wouldn''t be able to summon the Battalion, that''s for certain But he could pretend to, and slip away from the meddlesome woman.

"I''ll make that call now." Raida feigned a confident air.
He pulled out his phone and pretended to dial while sauntering away.
"Where do you think you''re going?" Sophia''s bodyguards said roughly, blocking his path. "Ms. Davier wants you to make that call here.”
"I am the Chief Military Governor!" Raida eximed, looking outraged. "Every word from this conversation concerns national security. No one is allowed to overhear. You fools dare to stand in my way?"
The bodyguards nced at their employer.
"Let him pass," Sophia said calmly.
They parted, and Raida walked quickly towards the exit.
Sophia turned towards one of her bodyguards who wore an eyepatch. "Follow him. If he tries to escape..." She drew a finger across her neck. Eyepatch nodded. "Yes, Ms. Davier."
