Chapter 88
Evangeline smiled softly and whispered something in his car,
Riley blinked, fially understanding.
Don’t… you can’t do this to me… Norber whimpered, panic written all over his face.
His weak, frightened cries were met with stone–cold silence from Riley and Marian. No one was feeling particularly merciful today. Norbert had brought death to countless others with his cruelty, and this punishment was just a fraction of what he deserved.
“While I was out looking for ginseng.” Evangeline suggested, “I spotted a little grove of bamboo. Let’s move him there so he can at least enjoy a bit of shade.”
Riley and Marian hoisted Norbert up, following Evangeline as she led the way. Soon, they arrived at the small bamboo grove she
Without a word, Riley Jud mentioned.
There were only about twenty bamboo stocks–scarcely enough to be called a grove. Evangeline pointed to a patch of ground that had a few new shoots breaking through the surface. “Let’s put him there.”
Riley and Marian quickly understood her plan, and Norbert did too. His face contorted in horror, and his body trembled in terror. “No. Evangeline, you can’t do this to me!
Ignoring his pleas, Riley and Marian placed him on the ground and found some sturdy branches to stake his arms and legs, preventing him from moving.
“Let’s go.” Evangeline said coolly, turning on her heel, Riley and Marian followed her, leaving Norbert behind.
From the grove, Norbert’s weak pleas echoed back at them. He begged them to just end his suffering and put him out of his misery.
In the growing season, bamboo shoots could grow 4 to 8 inches in a day. In a tropical forest like this, where rainfall was abundant and the soil rich, they would only grow faster. Bamboo had a powerful penetrating ability; it could break through even concrete if pushed hard enough
In the observation room, Kenji watched Norbert’s terrible plight, shaking with rage. “Evangeline is absolutely ruthless! She’s already flayed Norbert, and now she’s using such a vicious method to torment him. She’s like a monster!”
Even knowing that the white tiger was unleashed and that Evangeline wouldn’t be able to be this arrogant for much longer, the sight of a fellow citizen in such a state kept Kenji furious. He couldn’t help but feel a chill of fear. If Evangeline could be this cruel, what would happen if we fell into her hands? he thought
“Calm down,” John said, his voice steady. “She won’t be able to flaunt her power for much longer. Let’s get the livestream back on. I want everyone in the world to see how the white tiger scares her so badly she’ll be begging Jeffrey for mercy!”
He smirked, his eyes gleaming with determination. “And I want Jeffrey to conquer the white tiger live, so everyone knows that we Atharians are the best. Nobody can shake our standing in this world!”
The group around him nodded in agreement, praises flying back and forth.
Meanwhile, in the forest, a new drone buzzed into view, its red light flashing as it hovered in front of Evangeline. The livestream was back on
Evangeline didn’t react much to the drone. If it was going to stream, so be it, she could shut it down at the crucial moment
Even though what she had done was legal within Nardor, the collective judgment of the online community could still be harsh. She was aware that her cruel methods could attract online backlash back home, and while it didn’t bother her too much, it was always better to avoid unnecessary trouble if she could. After all, nobody wanted to be on the receiving end of harsh criticism; she was no exception.
In Clusia’s livestream room, comments flooded back. The livestream finally switched back to Evangeline’s side. What had just happened? Why slid the stream cut away from her?]
Could it be that Evangeline was torturing Norbert and the production team thought it was too much, so they shut off her camera!]
[Why wouldn’t they show Evangeline teaching Norbert a lesion! That’s a good moment)]
I checked with my buddy in Japrium, and he said their stream has switched to the coverage from Atharla, Norbert should be offline by now.
[LOL, that’s great! Norbert got what he deserved!
[Am I the only one who thinks Evangeline went overboard? She may be abroad, but as a Clusian, she should follow our laws and maintain our dignity Cursing and physically hurting someone on camera? That damages Clusia’s international image. When she comes back, I think the country should hold her accountable. Hurting someone overseas is still a crime.]
[I think Evangeline took things too far too. This is a global livestream, and she actually injured someone on camera. That’s way too violent–it could

set a bad example for kids]
[Clusia has always been a friendly nation, and now Evangeline is ruining that image. From the moment she showed up, she insulted people from other countries and hurt them without a second thought. I’ve wanted to say something about this for long, but I felt I couldn’t because her mindless fans are everywhere.]
[If you want to cower and live in the shadows, that’s on you. But don’t criticize someone who fights against unfair treatment! Evangeline only lashed out after being provoked. Where were you when other countries insulted her and Clusia?]
