Salute To The General

Will's expression became complicated when he saw Nathan.

Likewise, Nathan had the same expression when he saw Will. Before he came, he had already thought of a thousand things to say to Will. However, in the end, he could only say, "How are you, Will?"

Will flashed a smile. "Well, I feel like I've just placed a huge bet and lost, and I haven't been able to catch my breath yet."

Right then, Colin brought a chair over for Nathan, even wiping the seat.

Nathan sat down casually and lit a cigarette. Puffing out a cloud of smoke slowly, he carried on with the conversation like he was chatting with a friend. "You shouldn't have placed that bet!"

Will smiled weakly and uttered, "I had no choice. Since Erwin and I are such good friends, we ought to rise and fall together. He even promised me he would make me the Chief Military Governor after he became the President. Since I've been the commander-in-chief of Brimmopolis' Capital Garrison for over ten years, I thought a promotion would be nice."

In response, Nathan answered flatly, "Is it really so nice to be the Chief Military Governor? Why don't I think so? Is your post that bad? Do you not feel powerful enough to have over two hundred thousand troops at your disposal? You shouldn't have selfishly led the troops onto the streets, and you shouldn't have sent your men to attack the Headquarters of the Chief Military Governor and the White House. Your actions aren't lawful at all. Hence, I've come to kill you."

Once Nathan's words poured out of his mouth, Will's subordinates were startled.

At the same time, the look on Will's face turned even more sorrowful.

However, he seemed like he had accepted his fate as he smiled and said, "I chose this path, so I know what's coming my way."
