Everyone held their breath as Sylas saluted and announced. “Salute to our Chief! Salute to our Hero!”
…
Sylas’ voice was like a wake-up call to everyone else as they quickly saluted to the God of War with their body
trembling and eyes filled with tears.

living in.
Everyone was excited. It was as if they had returned to the military camp.
“We will fight by your side if there is war!” Sylas shouted and everyone repeated after her.
Even Phoenix straightened his body as he remembered the time when they fought the invasion from the alliance.

award, it’s still an honor that belongs to me. It’s proof of my sacrifice. Phoenix, take these medals away and strip
them of their achievements!” Levi ordered.
