Chapter 79: Operation Skybreak, part 4/11 [Bonus]

The time seemed to slow down as Tia looked at the trio before her, her eyes slightly dilating. Her hands trembled, a cocktail of emotions surging through her as she faced the man, her own uncle, who betrayed her for nothing but personal profit.

Seeing her anger, the two people flanking the man retreated back without any care for him. Tia briefly suppressed her anger and smiled at the platinum-haired cousin brimming with youth who was waving at her.

'At least she is as kind as she used to be.'

Her eyes briefly paused at a young, dark-haired man sharing the same crooked nose and squinty eyes as the older man, her second cousin.Read latest chapters at novelhall.com Only

'He should be the collaborator the Empire wanted to inherit the company by killing the rest of my family. You almost caused the death of my sweet cousin, but I still need you.' After her parents' deaths and her imprisonment, the entire company was split between her two uncles and her aunt, splitting the shares evenly.

She thought her anger had subsided over the years, but she was wrong, and the moment her eyes landed on one of the perpetrators of her suffering, it erupted like a volcano.

"Uncle, look at me now. I'm not that naive, vulnerable child you manipulated anymore," Tia declared, her frozen smile unfaltering as she advanced, a step reverberating with her newfound power.

"How dare you side with the Empire, abandoning the principles of freedom!" The words struck her like a burning hot knife, the irony of someone who helped strip her of her own freedom calling her an enemy of freedom making her burst into laughter.

An office worker in a black suit rushed at her, scissors gleaming in his hand, his eyes burning with blind fanaticism. In her sight, he moved slowly and pathetically, not even evoking any sensation of threat.

It was laughably pathetic, and the naivet of the attacker's faith in a corrupt system nudged her into a wild laughter that reverberated ominously in the tense atmosphere.

"Haha, truly? Who else wants to die for the so-perfect Federation?" Her amused glare made the still-conscious employees avert their eyes.

In an attempt to maintain some semblance of order, Tia raised her voice, offering a lifeline to the terrified onlookers. "I told you, remain on your spot, and you will survive," she declared, knowing fully well that hysteria could easily engulf the room and complicate her mission.

The soldier's report on the intercom jerked her back to reality, replacing her frenzied joy with a sharp, urgent focus. "Mam, the military and planet's guard drones and dropships are quickly approaching; we are opening fire."

Ignoring her suffering uncle on the ground, she waved at her two cousins, "My sweet cousin, and the other one I don't care about, I need your cooperation."
