Freddy Was Dumbfounded

"Greetings, Commander Dylan."

A dark figure descended from the sky, and the soldiers standing guard nearby immediately bowed in salute.

Dylan Fikernando gave a slight nod and, without wasting any time, swiftly passed through tent after tent until he arrived before a three-story building.

Pushing open the doors, he found the simple, spacious hall already packed with people. Heavy tension filled every face, especially that of the blond man standing at the center. His eyes were bloodshot, his lips trembled, and he kept muttering under his breath.
