With his digital weapon neutralized and his tactical advantage instantly evaporated, Victor’s arrogant composure shattered completely into dust.
He lunged toward the console with a feral, animalistic roar, but Julian moved faster, tackling his estranged brother hard across the metal platform.
A brief, violent physical struggle ensued before Julian pinned Victor firmly to the floor with practiced martial arts precision, snapping heavy tactical zip-ties securely around his wrists.
