The Awakened General: Dishonor His Family, Pay with Your Life

I fought for the Empire for 18 years, covered in glory as the Empire's strongest backbone, until an unexpected ambush by enemy forces left me in a coma.

When I opened my eyes again, I found my daughter stripped naked by her classmates, being led down the street on a dog leash.

My wife, whom I once treasured like a precious gem, was forced to kneel before other men with her mouth open.

My elderly mother was even forced to her knees, begging.

The family of an Empire General had fallen to such a state.

Three years—I had only been in a coma for three years...

Hatred spread through my heart. I'm back now, and from this day forward, I won't spare a single person who has humiliated my family.

In a daze, I heard my mother's hoarse crying voice.

"I'm begging you, please let my family go! As long as you spare her, I'll do anything you ask."

The man's voice carried arrogance and undisguised malice.

"Fine, then kowtow to me 100 times!"

Thud—

The dull sound of a head hitting the floor.

"I'll do it... I'll do it, just don't touch them."

My mother's hoarse cries gradually cleared the fog in my mind.

I was once the Empire's sharpest blade, a legendary soldier who struck fear into enemy forces, with unmatched military achievements.

I thought that by keeping the nation safe, I could protect my family forever, but I never imagined that after years in a coma, the first thing I'd hear upon regaining consciousness would be such desperate voices.

Moments later, even more terrible screams came.

"Let me go! Let me go! Mom... save me."

My wife's crying and struggling echoed throughout the hospital ward.

My mother rushed over, pleading.

"You can't take her away. Didn't you promise you'd spare my daughter and granddaughter?"

The man laughed cruelly.

"Who promised you that? I just wanted to enjoy watching you beg like dogs."

"Take this woman away. Godfather said this woman and her daughter are pretty enough. After we're done with them, we'll send them to auction and make a fortune."

No...

I forced my eyes open. My vision was still blurred from the long coma.

But the sight of my wife being dragged away naked was seared into my eyes.

"You can't do this to me. My husband is a General. When he wakes up, he won't let you get away with this."

The man with tattooed arms snorted at her words and groped her breasts several times.

"What General? He's been lying there like a living corpse for years. The Empire has long forgotten about him!"

They dragged my wife toward the door.

Hatred exploded in my mother's eyes. She grabbed a fruit knife from nearby and rushed at them.

But she was just a frail old woman.

One kick sent my mother flying, crashing hard against the wall.

Before she could get up, they grabbed her gray hair and slammed her head against the floor, then beat her mercilessly with fists and kicks.

"You dare pull a knife? You're asking for death!"

"Today we'll show you what happens when you cross us."

The sounds of brutal beating and crying filled the hospital ward.

I lay in the hospital bed, my body rigid as iron.

Those people soon left.

Only my mother remained in the ward, crying alone.

Hatred spread through my heart. My mother's sobs and my wife's screams exploded from the depths of my soul.

The machines let out sharp, piercing alarms.

I suddenly sat up, and my vision finally became clear.
