“Commander-in-Chief?!”
Albin was surprised to see Emmanuel step forward.
“Lethandle this.”
Emmanuel said only three words before walking out.

It wasn’t that he doubted Albin’s abilities. This matter required a severe response to these arrogant Shoiyans-a
lesson so profound that they would never forget it.
Given Albin’s capabilities, achieving a crushing, intimidating effect would be hard, so Emmanuel chose to
intervene despite his injuries.
“Ha! Did you see that? You Chanaeans are utterly pathetic in front of us, Shoiyans, not to mention we have
plenty of powerful allies!”
“You'd better watch yourselves. If you insist on provoking us, the consequences will be unbearable for you. Who
knows? This might send Chanaea back to the Stone Age!”
The two Shoiyan fighters continued to gloat.
Wendy, like many others, was furious but powerless. Her team couldn't match these two.
“Is that so? Let's see who's truly pathetic.”
A voice rang out as Emmanuel, bandaged and all, strode toward the two Shoiyans.
He deliberately gave them tto react, ensuring they wouldn't accuse him of a sneak attack.
The moment they noticed him, he suddenly vanished, appearing right in front of them in a blink.
“So... so fast!”
The two Shoiyans’ eyes widened in shock. Before they could even finish their exclamation, a violent surge of pain
erupted in their stomachs.
Emmanuel struck with both palms, unleashing an aura that left everyone speechless-like meteors crashing into
the earth.
The once arrogant Shoiyan fighters were serft flying, utterly defenseless.
Remarkably, Emmanuel ensured they didn’t destroy any part of the venue. Instead, they landed just outside the
doors, coughing up blood, unable to get back up.
Gasp!
Many present audibly drew in sharp breaths.
This had never happened in Chanaean diplomatic history before!
It took Willow a moment to react. He immediately pointed at Emmanuel and scolded, “Is this how you

Emmanuel sneered. Exactly. This is our way of hosting Sholyans like a sparring session? We're always happy to
oblige anytime, anywhere. It's our pleasure to satisfy our guests’ requests,”
Willow wanted to retort but found himself silenced by Emmanuel’s piercing gaze.
The Shofyans were, at their core, a predatory nation. They feared the strong and despised the weak.
When crushed, they becobedient. Otherwise, they would continue to push boundaries.
“Haha...”
Ethan suddenly laughed and turned to the Shoiyan delegate, Mr. Kashimoto. “Mr. Kashimoto, Birdsong Island has
always been part of Chanaca. If there are inaccuracies in your modern historical records, | suggest consulting
older ones.”
Mr. Kashimoto put down his teacup, glanced at Emmanuel, and immediately adjusted his previously superior
demeanor.
“I recall it belonged to Shoiya, but I'll follow your advice and check older documents. However, | have a request,
Mr. Kashimoto said earnestly.
“Go ahead.”
Ethan, ever the composed president, didn’t lose his temper or act condescendingly. He simply gestured for
Mr. Kashimoto to continue.
“The sparring earlier was an accident. Those two Shoiyans somehow slipped in; they're not part of my
delegation, nor was it our intention. | kindly ask that the incident not be disclosed.”
Ethan neither agreed nor refused. Instead, he said, “Regardless of their affiliation, they entered with your
delegation. The protocol was disrupted. Shouldn't you apologize?”
To everyone's surprise, Mr. Kashimoto stood up and bowed at a full ninety degrees toward Ethan.
“I apologize for the disruption. We're willing to re-record the discussions, and we'll fully cooperate.”
Seeing the once-proud Shoiyans bow their heads in apology left many astonished.
Even Ethan was a bit surprised but maintained a gentle smile. “Then let’s redo it. | hope Shoiyans can learn that
while Chanaea is a land of etiquette, we are far from weak.”
Applause broke out across the venue.
The Shoiyan delegation’s smiles turned awkward and strained.
Emmanuel noted that Ethan was still the sapproachable leader people knew. However, he wasn’t weak; he
was simply measured.
The two delegations resumed their diplomatic talks, with the proceedings taking a completely different tone than
before. Both sides adopted a broader and more formal approach to their statements.
Mr. Kashimoto also adjusted his rhetoric, carefully avoiding any mention of the territorial dispute over Birdsong
Island.
The discussions, while significant, lacked the excitement of earlier exchanges and felt rather monotonous.

Ethan concluded the state visit and surprisingly extended a dinner invitation to Emmanuel.

Though initially hesitant, Emmanuel eventually accepted, only to discover that Ethan had arranged a private
dinner exclusively for the two of them.
It was a fortunate coincidence, as Emmanuel had a few pressing matters to discuss with Ethan, making this
arrangement perfectly aligned with his intentions.
“Commander Lowe, if it weren't for you stepping in today, things might have taken a dire turn. Letroast to
you.”
Ethan said proactively.
Emmanuel quickly reciprocated, though he couldn’t hide the curiosity in his voice. “Mr. Hale, why do you say
that? Would the outchave been any different had | not stepped in?”
“Absolutely!” Ethan responded with conviction.

expression grew serious, his tone

“Then, if | hadn't intervened, would you not have had any alternative plans in place?” Emmanuel asked,
gesturing politely for Ethan to elaborate further.
Ethan sighed, his candor unwavering. “Even if I'd intended to take other measures, there likely wouldn't have
been enough tto act effectively.”
Ethan spoke candidly, admitting that his invitation to Emmanuel for dinner wasn’t just an expression of gratitude
but also an opportunity to share scritical information.
“Commander, I'm sure you're aware that Shoiyan is little more than a pawn of a certain Western superpower,
aren't you?” Ethan asked directly.
Emmanuel nodded. “Of course.” This wasn’t news-every Chanaean knew it, even children. Calling Shoiyan a
pawn was generous; to Emmanuel, it was more like a crippled watchdog, barely able to fend for itself.
Ethan leaned closer, his tone lowering. “Within Chanaea, there are also individuals colluding with that Western
power-or, to put it mildly, leveraging mutual benefits.”

Emmanuel stiffened slightly but didn’t hesitate to probe further. “Are you referring to Teddy or someone else?”
Ethan didn’t mince words. “If I'm not mistaken, Catherine is orchestrating something behind the scenes. She
likely wants to seehumiliated by the Shoiyans, enduring their provocations without retaliating. Such a
spectacle would undoubtedly tank my approval ratings.”
Emmanuel raised an eyebrow in surprise but couldn't dismiss the plausibility. Though a military strategist, not a
politician, he understood one thing with absolute clarity-Ethan’s political battlefield, rife with
