The interrogation hall in the Inspection Bureau was so silent that the air itself felt heavy.

Eugene was now feeling an unfamiliar chill creeping up his spine.

He had been unsettled earlier when Robin threatened to expose his hidden dealings, but the worst–case scenario was just public disgrace.

He could disappear for a while, wait for the storm to pass, and then return to his old ways.

But now, hearing Robin’s icy tone, a deep fear took root in his heart. He had heard rumors about the former general of the Special Operations Military Region.

Robin wasn’t the usual kind of officer–he had come from an unusual background, parachuting into the military world with a style completely different from the traditional chain of command.

He ignored the rules, disregarded hierarchy, and carried himself with an air of defiance that set him apart.

It was said that he had ties to the World of Darkness, and ever since he left the military, there had been endless speculation about his true role.

Many assumed the higher–ups needed someone capable, so they placed him in a position of authority. To them, Robin was merely a pawn in a much larger game.

Eugene had always believed in the power of social circles, strategy, wealth, and connections. He was deeply skeptical of Robin’s so–called legends.

As a deputy director from a prestigious family, he refused to believe that an ordinary person like Robin had ever experienced the ruthless political maneuvering of the elite.

And yet, after all that, Robin still dared to ignore the constraints of rules and regulations, forging ahead without hesitation or retreat.

Since ancient times, it was an unspoken rule that commoners didn’t challenge officials.

The so–called heroes of history were merely pawns in power struggles, conveniently placed at the right

moment.

Those in power manipulated others to achieve their goals, using them to eliminate threats while orchestrating everything behind the scenes.

After a brief moment of unease, Eugene scoffed at himself and gradually regained his composure.
