The War God's Homecoming

Chapter 85 Eugene's Question

“Eugene!” Shana furrowed her eyebrows slightly before turning to Billy.

“I'm sorry, Mr Gardner, Eugene didn't mean it that way. Don't take it to heart. He..."

"I meant exactly what I said!" Eugene interrupted her. "I can't stand people who pretend.”

"What do you mean you don't have a rank? Except for new recruits, all soldiers have ranks, that's common knowledge. And he doesn't look like a new recruit at all, so how could he not have a rank?"

"Mr Gross, please watch your words.” Harleen was slightly annoyed. "My husband said he doesn't have a rank and that's the truth, he has no reason to lie to you."

“Ms Knight, I'm just trying to help you!" Eugene turned towards Harleen. "All soldiers have ranks, if he doesn't have one then he must not be a soldier. Don't let him fool you!"

"Eugene, what's gotten into you? Can't you keep quiet for once?" Shana looked embarrassed and her tone turned cold. She then turned towards Billy and Harleen. "Harleen, Billy, don't be angry with him, Eugene's father being in the military, it's something important for him.”

“It's okay." Billy replied Shana and turned to Eugene, "What you call common knowledge is only the tip of the iceberg within military systems, there are countless pieces of information that are beyond your understanding. Don't mistake your ignorance as something worth showing off about, it only makes yourself appear more ignorant.”

"Hmm? What did you say? How dare you say I'm ignorant? Do you know who my father is?"

“I don't know and I'm not interested either.” Billy gave a faint smile.

"Mr Gardner, I advise you to apologize to Eugene. Maybe he'll let it go for Ms Knight's sake.” Lawrence said with a disdainful look at Billy.

"His father is a colonel in the Ozin military district. If you make him angry, you'll have a hard time.” He added.

"Oh! A colonel?" Billy laughed again and turned to Eugene. "Does your dad know Roderick?"

"Of course!” Eugene snorted coldly. "Who in Ozin military district doesn't know him?"
