Her Majestic Battle Cry Chapter 1002

Chapter 1002

Kevin wanted a martial arts mentor for two reasons. The first was because he genuinely loved martial arts. The second was because it was a means to an end, a stepping stone to his promotion.

But he had plenty of patience. If it didn’t work in three years, he would wait five. If five years passed with no success, he would wait ten. The longer he stayed at Salvador’s side, the more experience he gained. If he didn’t give up, he would eventually succeed.

Of course, he had his sights set on specific goals–he aimed to be promoted to deputy captain and then captain within three to five years.

So, when Salvador summoned him and granted him the position of deputy commander of the Nightsteel Guard, Kevin was completely stunned.

He had never been caught off guard in court before–this was the first time.

It was Ian who kicked him sharply, muttering with a laugh, “What are you daydreaming about? Don’t you know how to thank His Majesty?”

Kevin’s trembling hands pressed against his chest as he bowed deeply and said, “Your Majesty, I thank you for your trust and this promotion. I will surely remain loyal and devoted, giving my all in service.”

Salvador smiled at the words, clearly pleased. “Ian, take him out. Have him buy drinks for your men to celebrate.”

Three men had been promoted. Kevin was overjoyed, Galen felt a bit disappointed, and Ivan showed no emotion at all. Having worked as a spy before, Ivan wasn’t one to let anyone read his inner thoughts. Whether he was happy or upset, he kept it all to himself.
