The War God's Homecoming novel Chapter 464

Chapter 464 Case Handed Over to the War Department

Without any hesitation, all four of them knelt down, trembling uncontrollably.

"Commander Gardner, spare us, we truly didn't know that the House of Harvey would commit such treachery. We wouldn't have dared to come here to plead on their behalf if we had known."

"P-please, Commander Gardner, have mercy... we had no idea they were capable of such treachery..."

"We beg Commander Gardner for another chance..."

"..."

The four of them kept begging fervently for mercy.

"Take them away and have them explain everything about their involvement. We'll strictly adhere to SHADOW's regulations, anyone found guilty will be executed!" Billy waved his hand.

"Understood!" Michael Hornig acknowledged loudly.

"Commander Gardner, I'm deeply sorry. I had no idea that the House of Harvey would commit such treachery. I promise to thoroughly investigate this matter and give you a satisfactory answer." Andre Cato said with a deep breath.

"Didn't you know, did you?" Billy asked with a suspicious look.

"Commander Gardner, I..." Andre was slightly taken aback.

Just then, a heavy footstep resounded, followed by the entrance of seven to eight people into the courtyard. Billy's eyes narrowed as he slightly raised the corners of his mouth.

"General Wilson, hello! General Grimes, hello!" Recognizing the two men leading the group, Andre hurriedly approached and saluted them with a standard military salute.

The newcomers were none other than Glavale's top commander, Cole Wilson, and the Central Zone War Department's Commander Gavin Grimes. The latter was under thirty years old, and he was considered one of the rising stars among the younger generation in the prestigious Grimes family, a significant force in the capital city, despite not being officially recognized as a noble house. Their influence in the capital city was not much less than that of the noble clans.

"Commander Gardner, I apologize for not visiting you earlier when I heard you were in Celestiford. I hope my presence has not been too intrusive." Gavin ignored Andre and walked directly to Billy, without any extra expression on his face, speaking with dignity and respect.

"Hello, General Grimes," Billy replied with a friendly smile and then greeted Cold Wilson, "General Wilson, you're here too."

"I just happened to be here today to discuss some matters with Grimes. I heard that you had also come to Celestiford, so I came to pay my respects. I hope I haven't disrupted your plans." Cole replied with a smile.

"General Wilson, your presence is always welcome."

Just then, Frank Harvey struggled to stand up and approached Gavin Grimes before kneeling down and bowing deeply.

"General Grimes, I beg you, save the Harvey family..."

"Andre, what's going on here?" Gavin Grimes didn't pay attention to Frank and turned to Andre Catro.

"General Grimes, the Harvey clan has committed treason and collaborated with the enemy." Andre repeated what Azure Fang had said earlier after taking a deep breath.

"You scoundrels!" After hearing Andre's words, Gavin roared in anger. He then took two steps forward, drew a dagger from one of his attendants without hesitation, and slashed it down toward Frank.

"General Grimes, have mercy..." Frank's voice trembled with despair.

After the blade passed, Frank's head flew into the sky, blood spraying everywhere. Billy and his group didn't intervene, watching as Frank was beheaded.

"Andre, listen to my orders!" Following that, Gavin spoke in a solemn tone.

"Please instruct, General Grimes!" Andre responded loudly.

"Take your men and surround the Harvey clan. Bring all their clan members back to the War Department, and investigate each of them thoroughly. Anyone involved in these crimes is to be executed without mercy!"
