Chapter 265
Oscar stood before the towering walls of Happy House, retrieving his pocket watch to check the time.

“Whatever the case, this isn’t where I belong.”
No fool would send an administrative officer to the frontlines. Of course, with a designated operations commander in place, Oscar wasn’t expected to do much.
He sighed, thinking of Monica.
