The boss of a foreign organization called the police, claiming that he was defrauded by me

Cassir gave Suqi a brutal beating, but even that couldn't quell the hatred in his heart.

"You bastard! At this critical moment, you still have to be sneaky, pushing us into the eye of the storm while you hide in the back trying to reap the benefits."

"You seriously underestimate us. You're being far too clever for yourselves, thinking you can outsmart us."

Su Qi endured the pain, but was completely powerless to resist.

Sophie from Nebula Kingdom stood with her arms crossed, watching the farce with great interest...

He was well aware that, despite the tricks played by Tian Ye, the envoy from the Red Cake Kingdom, behind his back.

However, the allied forces failed to inflict heavy damage on Yan Kingdom and were unable to complete the mission assigned by the high command of Xingyun Kingdom.

If we were to return now, it would be difficult to explain.

It would be better to go with Cassil to the Atlan Empire and then make further plans.

Enraged, Cassirer was completely unable to stop and ignored Tianye's pleas for mercy.

He gripped Tianye's neck tightly, raining blows with his fists and feet.

He kept cursing, and the scene briefly spiraled out of control.

Tianye felt excruciating pain all over his body, and his vision blurred.

He held his head in his hands, pleading with Casillas in a trembling voice, "Please stop hitting me... I know I was wrong, I've already sincerely apologized."

"I can't take it anymore, please forgive me this time."

Cassir's anger only intensified when he heard Tianye plead for mercy.

Thinking about the schemes the other party had plotted behind his back, Cassirer was filled with resentment.

They went to great lengths to deal with the Yan Kingdom, but the Red Cake Kingdom had other plans.

He could not accept this matter under any circumstances, so Cassirer ignored Tianye's pleas.

He vented his rage wildly until he beat Tianye unconscious, leaving him lying motionless on the ground.

Cassir then stood up, panting, and kicked Tianye hard.

"You bastard... This is retribution. You probably never thought you would end up like this when you did these things."

"Since you've done this, you must pay a heavy price so that you'll learn your lesson."

The soldiers of the Red Cake Kingdom watched all this unfold, but dared not utter a sound, lest they invite trouble upon themselves.

They showed no mercy even to their own envoys; if I were to step forward, I would likely lose my life instantly.

After venting his emotions, Cassirer turned to the Red Pancake Kingdom soldiers and said sternly:
“Take him back, make sure he remembers this lesson, and tell the King of Red Cake Kingdom not to have such wicked thoughts again.”

"Don't think that the Nebula Kingdom and the Atlan Empire are easy to bully. If they have any further unreasonable ambitions, our next target will be the Red Cake Kingdom."

"We will show no mercy and make the Red Cake Kingdom pay a heavy price. If you can bear the consequences, then continue your reckless behavior."

The soldiers of the Red Cake Kingdom were terrified, standing meekly to the side, not daring to utter a single word of protest.

Everyone had their heads down, and Sophie felt quite helpless.

The Red Cake Kingdom's current predicament is entirely its own fault; it is the result of their own actions.

Sophie slowly stepped forward and came to the side of the furious Cassil.

"Chief Cassil...please calm down. The man has been beaten unconscious. I believe the soldiers will report this matter to the King of Red Cake Kingdom once they return."

"They did go too far this time, but Tianye is, after all, an envoy sent by the Red Cake Kingdom. In times of war, envoys are not to be killed, especially since we have not yet officially started the war."

"Don't let this cause any misunderstandings. Everyone, calm down and discuss what to do next. Let Tianye return to Red Cake Country as soon as possible."

"Humph……"

Cassir snorted coldly, turned and left with a flick of his sleeve.

This defeat in battle left Cassirer extremely frustrated.

The Nebula Kingdom was powerful and had always coveted the Yan Kingdom, originally determined to conquer it, but unexpectedly ended up like this.

This really annoyed him, and the fact that the Red Cake Kingdom was using such tricks made Cassir feel helpless.

He didn't want to pay attention to Sophie beside him, feeling that the Nebula Kingdom was just as vulnerable as the Yan Kingdom.

He even began to regret listening to the instigation of Tian Ye, the envoy from the Red Cake Kingdom, and letting things get to this point.

Cassir felt he was in a bind and didn't know what to do next. After this battle,
The relationship between the Atlan Empire and the Yan Kingdom has completely broken down and is probably impossible to repair.

This also worried Cassir, just as he turned to leave.

Sophie said to Cassirer with a serious expression, "Chief Cassirer... please wait, I have something to say, there's no need to leave in a hurry."

When Cassil heard Sophie calling him, he frowned and finally stopped.

After a moment's hesitation, Cassirer slowly turned to face Sophie.

Hearing Sophie's voice now filled him with utter disgust...

He felt extremely annoyed when he recalled Sophie's arrogant demeanor earlier.

He had no liking for Sophie and cast a disdainful glance at her.

Originally, Yan Kingdom hoped to rely on Xingyun Kingdom to defeat Yang Xia and profit from it, thereby strengthening the Atlan Empire.

Unexpectedly, things didn't go as planned; instead, the situation worsened.

Cassir harbored resentment, feeling deceived by Sophie and the Red Cake Kingdom, and was therefore very dissatisfied.

His face was grim, and he frowned slightly as he looked at Sophie: "Lady Sophie...is there anything else?"

Cassir asked impatiently, clearly not in the mood for further conversation.

Sophie hesitated slightly, and Cassirer turned to leave again. Seeing Cassirer's impatient attitude, Sophie felt a surge of displeasure.

But knowing that he hadn't completed his task, he could only swallow his anger.

"Chief Cassil...please wait!" Sophie called out to Cassil again.

Cassir was seething inside, his anger barely contained.

"Lady Sophie... just speak your mind, there's no need to beat around the bush."

"Things have come to this point, you don't need to put on airs in front of me."

Sophie's face turned ashen, but she dared not say a word and slowly walked up to Cassil.

Suppressing his displeasure, he forced a smile and said to Cassirer:
"Your Majesty... I only wish to stay for a few days to inspect the Atlan Empire. I hope you will grant this request."

Cassil glanced at Sophie helplessly, too lazy to bother with these matters, and didn't want to waste any more words on him.

Cassir turned to his subordinates and ordered impatiently, "Arrange accommodations for Lady Sophie."

With that, Cassirer turned and left without looking back.

Sophie was left standing there alone, feeling incredibly awkward. She watched Cassil's retreating figure, gritting her teeth in anger.

But now that he had suffered a defeat, he could no longer be as powerful as before. So... he could only endure Cassirer's contemptuous attitude towards him.

"Thank you very much, Chief..." Sophie replied hastily.

He must not provoke Cassirer at this moment, otherwise he would truly have nowhere to go, making the situation of Nebula Kingdom even worse.

Sophie was well aware of this. Back at camp, Sophie looked somewhat dejected.

His expression was conflicted, but he finally mustered up his courage.

He took a deep breath and muttered to himself, "Some things have to be faced sooner or later, so it's better to say them sooner rather than later." Sophie quickly contacted the high-ranking officials of the Nebula Kingdom and reported the situation of the battle and the matter of Tian Ye, the envoy from the Red Cake Kingdom.

The high-ranking officials of Nebula were deeply shocked after hearing Sophie's report.

"What did you say... that Yan Kingdom possesses powerful weapons? This is indeed beyond our expectations."

"But how could this Red Cake Country have such a despicable idea? I never expected the war to turn out so badly."

"These unexpected situations have occurred, it seems that Yang Xia and Yan Guo are indeed not easy to deal with."

Sophie couldn't help but sigh, feeling a pang of self-reproach that she couldn't quite express.

Thinking about their current predicament, they couldn't help but feel aggrieved. The mighty Nebula Kingdom had come from afar, only to end up like this.

The high-ranking officials of the Nebula Kingdom also understood Sophie's situation and were working to stabilize the current situation.

The high-ranking officials of the Nebula Kingdom patiently instructed Sophie: "Lady Sophie... although we know you are in a difficult situation due to the defeat in this battle."

"But... as a member of the Nebula Nation, you have a responsibility to bear everything for the development of the Nebula Nation. Therefore, you must remain in the Atlan Empire for the time being."

"We are aware of your situation and will send someone to handle it as soon as possible. Until then, please remain calm and do not act rashly."

Sophie listened to the instructions from higher-ups, feeling helpless. The situation was already set in stone.

There was really no other way but to stay in the Atlan Empire and wait; they couldn't possibly return to the Nebula Kingdom at this point.

This matter has not been completely resolved, so it's not time to leave yet.

"Yes... I will stay in the Atlan Empire as instructed. But I hope you will send someone as soon as possible."

"These matters need to be dealt with as soon as possible, otherwise our situation will be very awkward."

Sophie hung up the call and slumped to the ground, feeling utterly powerless.

For a long while, Sophie was unable to come to her senses, her gaze blank and lost, staring out the window.

No one could guess what he was thinking. After a long while, he took a deep breath and slowly stood up.

He had no choice but to accept this reality. In the days that followed, Sophie indeed remained in the Atlan Empire.

But he did nothing all day, as if he regarded this place as a vacation resort, and had nothing else to do but eat, drink and enjoy himself.

However, in Cassirer's eyes, Sophie was living a far too carefree life here...

Seeing Sophie hanging around him all day, either indulging in pleasure or buying all sorts of strange and unusual items, with no other serious behavior, he was shocked.

This displeased Cassirer greatly, and a shadow of gloom flashed across his eyes.

"This Sophie... really treats the Atlan Empire like a playground, spending all her time either indulging in debauchery or buying all sorts of random gadgets."

"He's always hanging around me, and seeing him makes me feel upset, and all the unpleasant memories come flooding back."

"It even makes me doubt whether the Nebula Kingdom truly wants to gain my trust. This is just a smokescreen; it seems they intend to use the Atlan Empire. It's utterly despicable."

At this moment, Cassirer felt deeply troubled and regretted his rash decision.

But it's too late to say anything now. He's been thinking about these things every day, and he's already quite restless.

Upon seeing Sophie, he would be filled with suspicion and feel even more uneasy.

The strength of Yang Xia's Yan Kingdom also made Kasir, the leader of the Atlan Empire, feel threatened.

"Someone come here!" Cassirer called out loudly.

Several soldiers hurried inside and bowed respectfully to Cassir:

"My lord... what are your instructions?"

Cassir said angrily, "Lock up this Sophie from Nebula Kingdom. I don't want to see him loafing around here anymore."

"It's really affecting my mood. He does nothing all day and just wanders around aimlessly; it's so annoying."

Upon hearing Cassir's order, his subordinates naturally carried it out without hesitation.

Previously, they were wary of the strength of the Nebula Kingdom, but the successive defeats have made them no longer afraid of its power.

"Yes, sir... my lord."

The soldiers hurried away. Meanwhile, Sophie was leisurely enjoying the beautiful scenery of the Atlantean Empire.

But then she saw several soldiers approaching menacingly. Sophie didn't notice anything amiss.

But when these soldiers came to his side, their attitude was very tough.

"Lady Sophie...please come with us."

Sophie was stunned by what she heard, momentarily confused as to what mistake she had made.

Why do these soldiers look so hostile? He asked, full of doubt:
"What do you mean...where are you taking me?"

“If you don’t explain yourself clearly, I will never go with you. I am not a prisoner of the Atlan Empire, so why are you treating me like this?”

Seeing that Sophie was unwilling to cooperate, the soldiers became less polite.

"Take him away!"

Sophie struggled desperately, but to no avail, and was forcibly taken away by the soldiers.

They unceremoniously locked him in the room and said in a warning tone:
"Lady Sophie... From this moment on, please stay in this room and do not wander around."

"This is the leader's order. We hope you will abide by the rules, or don't blame us for being rude."

Sophie was furious at how they treated her and lost all interest.

He was locked in this room all day, and the sudden loss of his freedom was hard for him to accept.

He kept banging on the door and cursing loudly inside.

"Cassir...you bastard, let me out! What did I do to displease you? Why are you locking me up?"

"Aren't you afraid that I'll report this to the higher-ups in the Nebula Kingdom, causing trouble for the Atlan Empire?"

"I will never forget how you have treated me today. Just you wait and see!"

Sophie shouted until she was hoarse, but no one paid any attention, which made her feel desperate.

He sat down in a fit of rage, his heart filled with rage. The thought of how Cassirer had treated him made him grit his teeth in hatred.

Meanwhile, Cassir had just finished his official business when a soldier hurriedly entered.

"Your Majesty... Someone from the Kingdom of Red Cake has come to visit."

Upon hearing the soldier's report, Cassirer's gaze sharpened and his face darkened.

"What... People from Red Cake Country dare to come? They've got some nerve, coming to our door at a time like this."

"Looks like I'll have to give them a good talking to and see how they explain this. They're shameless."

Cassir cursed angrily, his anger rising uncontrollably at the mere mention of the Red Cake Kingdom.

The Atlantean Empire today truly regards the Red Cake Kingdom as a thorn in its side, hating it to the core.

“Bring them in…” Cassil said irritably.

"Yes... Chief."

The soldiers obeyed and withdrew. Cassirer sat there, his brow furrowed and his face contorted with anger.

Before long, Cassirer saw a familiar figure stop in front of him. (End of Chapter)
