The 5,000 light cavalry marched day and night, and within just ten days, they reached Kellingtown, looking worn out and tired. Only when they witnessed the delivery and ensured that the supplies had safely reached the army did they finally breathe a sigh of relief.

After resting for a night, the next day, Erik personally met with the fifth-rank officer leading the troops, Jax Shaw.

Jax, overjoyed by this honor, turned red in the face. His eyes were full of admiration and respect for Erik, almost speechless.

Although Jax was a few years older than Erik, he genuinely admired this young general.

A couple of years ago, he had questioned whether Aurelius favored his relatives by letting such a young man lead an army into battle, but after witnessing the countless victories and being continually amazed by his brilliant strategies, Erik had become for Jax the embodiment of the star of war.

Jax was a straightforward military officer, always simple-minded with little to no complexity in his thoughts. When someone

capable impressed him, he would genuinely admire them, no matter their age or status.

Last year, Erik injured his leg, and Jax also wallowed in depression and sorrow for a long time.

But unexpectedly, fate smiled upon him. Now, Erik had returned to the battlefield, and Jax had caught Aurelius's eye, gaining favor and even the chance to fight alongside his idol.

Tilting his head back, he drank a full cup of wine, and the more he thought about it, the more excited he became, causing his scalp to tingle.

He knelt and loudly declared, "His Majesty has commanded that there is

something in the supplies that must be delivered to General intact, to be managed and disposed of as the General sees fit."

Ten telescopes filled a box that he had carried with him throughout the journey, never letting it out of his sight, fearing something might go wrong.

With just a glance, Erik would know that the box came from his own craftsmen.

He reached out, took it, weighed it, couldn't guess what was inside, but didn't rush to open it. He helped Jax up and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

"N-No trouble," Jax stammered, scratching his head and hesitating for a long time before adding, "His Majesty said... this... this was designed by your wife."

Erik's cold face revealed no emotion, but if Jax had been a little more observant, he might have noticed his ears turning slightly red and that he held the box even tighter.

Back in his room, he closed the door and dismissed everyone. He quickly pressed a few buttons on the mechanism, and with a "click," the box popped open slightly.
