Salute To The General

Cedric Zartman, Svend Zuckerberg, Olaf Jimmerson, Ulric Gilham were the four Patriarchs of the four Reclusive Families. Soon, news that they were leading the top fighters of their families to Brimmopolis to celebrate Cayden's birthday spread around.

The Reclusive Families were renowned, so Cayden's reputation reached a new height after everyone found out they had come all the way here to celebrate his birthday. Various consortiums and wealthy families had high hopes for Cayden.

There was even a rumor circulating around that Cayden would be the next President and Chief Military Governor.

After hearing the news, Cayden's ex-colleagues and students were delighted beyond means.

However, Cayden was furious. He summoned Frode and demanded frostily, "I heard there's a rumor saying I'm the next President and Chief Military Governor?"

Isn't this good news? Why is he mad?

Despite thinking that way, Frode dared not revea his thoughts honestly.

He replied respectfully, "General Quillen, there is indeed this rumor, but I have no idea who is behind this."

Layden's expression was dark. "Find out if it's our men who spouted nonsense. If so, punish the culprit for spreading rumors."

Frode was stunned. "General Quillen, but-"
