Salute To The General

Chapter 1945



Brimmopolis, Saphira Mountain.

The tranquil valleys were disrupted by a party of obnoxiously luxurious cars. They gathered at Lamburg Mountain Villa at the foot of Saphira.

In a long black skirt and tasteful makeup, Gillian Goldstein looked elegant. She led her extended family, arranging them based on seniority in a line in front of the villa.

Gazing at the closed entrance, she said in a low voice, "Gillian Goldstein, on behalf of the Goldstein family, asks humbly to meet her uncle."

"We Goldsteins ask humbly to meet our granduncle," the party of Goldsteins behind her chorused.

The combined volume of the crowd startled the roosting birds. There was 3 flurry of movement as they took flight.

Despite their pleas, the heavy doors remained shut, with no sign of movement from within.

Gillian glanced behind her.

Gritting her teeth, she knelt down. Her family followed suit.

"Uncle, our family name has been around for millennia. We have had centuries of glory as one of the most powerful families in the country." "However, my generation failed at carrying on the legacy. We are weak-willed and incapable. As a result, we were vulnerable to outside attacks." "Nathan Cross has humiliated us. He defeated all of our best fighters and shamed us in front of the world."

"If that wasn't enough, he has killed many Goldsteins with his bare hands."

"It was only yesterday that he had murdered Webb, the heir of the Goldsteins."
