The War God's Homecoming

Chapter 467 A Return to the Origins of Power

A collective gasp escaped the Special Patrol officers' lips. They had heard the rumors about Commander Gardner from the western district being decisive, and today, they witnessed it firsthand. Taking such an aggressive stance, like threatening to sever a Special Patrol inspector's arm at the slightest provocation, was truly remarkable.

"Alright." Azure Fang replied, raising his blade to execute the command.

Alexandra Maynard had no strength left to resist; he promptly knelt before Nigel Hall and muttered through gritted teeth, "I apologize for my rash actions. Please, don't hold it against me."

He didn't doubt for a second that Azure Fang would have severed his arm if he hadn't knelt. He sighed in relief, knowing that he had escaped with a mere apology.

"You should be grateful you didn't harm Nigel Hall severely. Otherwise, you would be dead by now." Azure Fang said sternly.

"I'm so sorry." Alexandra took a deep breath.

"Inspector Maynard, your time in office is over." Billy then turned to Michael Hornig and ordered, "Take Nigel Hall back to SHADOW."

"Yes, Commander!" Michael replied emphatically.

Billy and his team left the scene.

"Inspector Maynard, are you alright? Please, get up." Siobhan Naylor walked over to him and was about to pull him up from the ground.

"Get lost!" Alexandra pushed him away, his eyes cold and filled with resentment as he watched Billy and his group depart. He muttered under his breath, "Commander Gardner, you will pay dearly for your actions today."
