Salute To The General

The next day was the day for the usual meeting between the President, the military, and the Cabinet.

The members of the military and the Cabinet had long arrived at the White House, and they were waiting for Nathan, the acting President, to arrive.

Soon, Nathan appeared in the meeting room with a few National Guards in traditional garb.

Nathan usually wore casual clothes. If he was working at the Headquarters of the Chief Military Governor, he would then wear his military clothes. It was only after becoming the acting President did he wear the traditional garb according to the traditions for the monthly meeting.

Anyone who looked at him would have to admit that Nathan seemed even more graceful in that attire.

When the people saw him, they all rose to their feet to greet him.

Nathan gave them a slight nod. "Since we're all here, let's start the meeting."

The people then took their seats according to their identities.

Right as the meeting was about to start, a guard rushed in and uttered, "Sir, Mr. Freeman is here!"

Nathan asked coldly, "Who?"

The guard paled. "Nelson Freeman."
