"… …"

The waiter had known Selia for a long time. He had been able to see her in the general's manor since he had followed the general. He had heard the general mention that she was his close friend, but he had never met her.

The general had no children, and the general had treated her like his own daughter since she had arrived. He wondered what the general's expression would be when he saw her like this.

Speaking of which, the relationship between him and Princess Anna seemed to be pretty good, and the other two female students also seemed to have made him angry.

Damn it, this damned man was actually so good-looking.

Liang Yue came back to her senses and felt somewhat uncomfortable. Seeing the profound expression of the attendant leading the way, she felt somewhat puzzled. Following that, she seemed to see a gaze that seemed to have some sort of objection to her floating out.

"What?"

He remembered that he shouldn't have provoked this person …

"This way, please." The waiter stopped walking and opened a door, inviting Liang Yue and the others in.

With a "ka" sound, the door was closed.

Waiting in the room was an old man in a military uniform. He was wearing a black military uniform and was sitting at a desk in the center of the room. Both of his hands were placed in front of his eyes, making it impossible to see his eyes.

Liang Yue and the others looked at him. The wind blew in from outside the window, causing them to feel unexpectedly comfortable.

The waiter walked up to the old man, coughed, bent down and whispered in his ear.

"General, the guests are here. It's time to wake up."

His voice was very soft, but because the room was very quiet, Liang Yue and the others could still hear what he was saying.

A light snoring sound came from inside the room, making the atmosphere a little awkward.

"General Edward, General Edward!" The attendant spoke loudly, revealing an apologetic smile towards Liang Yue and the others.

Ah!" The old man heard the servant's voice and woke up from his sleep. He raised his head and somewhat frantically wiped his mouth. Liang Yue could faintly see that there were some reflective things growing on his grizzled beard.

There was a flurry of hands and feet, making the atmosphere less awkward.

After tidying up his appearance, the old man turned around. It was only then that Liang Yue could see the old man's entire appearance.

The black military uniform and the old man's white beard formed a sharp contrast, the golden tasseled belt hung from his chest, then Liang Yue saw the legendary scene, on the left side of the military uniform hung a dense collection of medals, shining his eyes to the point of causing him some pain. He glanced at his left side, but saw nothing.

Not good.

The epaulettes on each side had three twinkling stars indicating the rank of general.

The old man looked like he had already seen over a hundred. His temples had already turned white, but he looked exceptionally spirited. He looked different from before as he entered this place. The old man opened his mouth to speak.

"Hello everyone!"

The old man's voice was full of spirit, he did not seem to be over a hundred years old, and it was surprisingly very amiable.

Liang Yue looked into his eyes.

His eyes were like the ocean. They seemed calm and peaceful, yet they were incomparably deep and broad, hiding countless storms and waves.

He also looked at Liang Yue. He was very curious about how this young first lieutenant dared to look into his eyes. He suddenly recalled that today was the day that a first lieutenant was awarded the Silver Wings medal.

"Salute!"

Salia's voice rang out by his ear, and the orderly sound of military boots stepping on the ground could also be heard. Liang Yue didn't react and just stared at the old man.

What's the matter with you? Little brother?

Liang Yue did not salute. He just looked at the old man, and the old man also looked at this young first lieutenant.

"Pah!" Liang Yue felt a pain at the back of her head. Just as she turned around to see which younger brother dared to pat her head, an arm grabbed her head and pressed down.

"Are you stupid?" Salia pulled Liang Yue's head to her side and looked him in the eye.

"Hmm?"

"Hmm?"

Looking at Selia's bright and clean eyes, Liang Yue nodded and slipped out from under her arm. She turned around and looked at the old man.

"…" Just as he was about to say something, he stopped and saluted.

Edward looked at the man in front of him. This young man should be the main character of today.

"I am General Vincen of the Principality's Army. Edward "

"Hello, I'm the first lieutenant of the Duchy. I'm currently a member of the Sword Arts Department in Hetton Mal Academy."

Although Edward had already heard Selia mention how Liang Yue looked, he still felt somewhat surprised. After all, he had never seen a man with such good looks before, at least not before.

Edward waved his hand, gesturing for Liang Yue to step back. The waiter and Edward introduced Xiyue and the others.

"You are Liang Yue?" General Edward stared at him and asked a question he already knew.

"Yes sir!"

Liang Yue was a bit nervous. After all, this was her first time meeting with the higher-ups of the duchy, and they were even generals. Although he was now a first lieutenant general, he was still a small soldier to the general.

"I won't speak any more nonsense. The reason I called you guys over today is because I have something to tell you."

"Read it!" Edward asked the waiter to bring out four boxes inlaid with the emblem of the Duchy.

"Yes sir!"

"We have already read your report. After an interview with the workers who were rescued, the Duchy decided to award the four people who completed their mission as medals."

"First Lieutenant Liang Yue!"

"Yes sir!"

"This general will grant you the Silver Wings from here."

"First Lieutenant Xiyue, Sergeant Xiyue!"

"The Copper Wings."

"Sergeant Corey, award the Iron Wing Medal!"

The attendants handed the boxes over to the four of them one by one. Liang Yue's Silver Wing Medal was the highest award among the four of them. It was a medal given to officers who had contributed greatly to the Duchy.

"There was originally a bunch of proclamations, but I found it troublesome and decided not to read them. You can go back now!"

Edward casually waved his hand to allow them to leave. The servant opened the door and they all prepared to leave.

"Bye bye!" "Uncle Edward!" Selia and Anna were obviously acquaintances of Edward, and as he turned to say goodbye, Edward suddenly thought of something.

It was as if Selia had whispered something to him while he was holding him by the neck.

Edward felt that Liang Yue was a bit unsightly. After all, he had taken Sally Adam's daughter in his eyes. However, his daughter seemed to have a tendency to be taken in by others.

The waiter was the last to leave. Just as he was about to close the door, he heard Admiral Edward's voice from inside.

"Wait a moment, tell General Liang Yue to come back. I have something to say to him!"

Edward's tone was very calm, but the waiter knew that this was the expression of anger on the face of the general. He looked at Liang Yue with some sympathy.

"First Lieutenant Liang Yue, wait a moment." The waiter stopped her.

"The general wants to speak to you alone."

"Me?"

"Yes."

"Then wait for me, General Edward seems to have something to talk to me about."

Salia suddenly thought of something. When the general saw her holding Liang Yue, he whispered into her ear, "Be careful, I feel like Uncle Edward doesn't like you."

"What?"

After hearing what Selia had told her, Liang Yue entered the room that she had just entered with an uneasy feeling.

"Close the door."

The general's voice came from inside.

"… …"
