Beep. Beep. Beep.
The radar information transmitted in real-time from the unmanned reconnaissance aircraft caught nothing. From the fortified line to the main battlefield, and all the way to the end of the last continental shelf.
As the highly excited gazes of the people turned towards the dignified man, the commander-in-chief in uniform finally opened his mouth.
“The war is…”
Over.
“Woohoo!!!”
“Victory for humanity!!!”
With those words, the command center of the headquarters was filled with a magnificent cheering.
They embraced each other and rejoiced.
They shed tears for their fallen comrades.
There were also men and women sharing passionate kisses.
The commander-in-chief looked at them and burst into a smile, then turned his head and spoke to a man sitting next to him.
“This is all thanks to you.”
“No, it’s not.”
The man replied briefly.
He was not a person who easily expressed his emotions, but nevertheless, the commander-in-chief could sense that he was truly happy.
Joy, regret, relief, a sense of liberation.
Various emotions were mixed in those words, and the commander-in-chief put his hand on the man’s shoulder and added.
“The honor of being a war hero is yours, Major General Luthers Edan. What would you like to do from now on? Humanity owes you a great debt.”
He meant it sincerely.
Invincible in battle. The Lion of Defense. The Empire’s Watchman.
The commander in charge of the “Graveyard” Fortress Command, the empire’s frontline and invincible fortress.
If it hadn’t been for Luthers Edan, who was praised with all sorts of titles, humanity would have already failed to stop the attack of the “Titans” and perished.
Of course, apart from his brilliant achievements, his subordinates’ evaluation of him was at rock bottom due to his unique rough personality and incomprehensible behavior.
But didn’t he prove it all with the results in the end?
The commander-in-chief vowed to support this great war hero with all his authority, even if he had to use all of it.
Luthers pondered for a moment at the commander-in-chief’s words, then opened his mouth that had been closed.
And it was.
An answer that no one dared to expect.
Three days after the victory.
Suddenly, Major General Luthers Edan declared his retirement from the military.
Although they were not on good terms even in words, they couldn’t help but be surprised by the sudden news of his retirement.
“Suddenly…? What do you mean?”
“Thank you for following the orders of someone like me so well. You won’t have to carry out incomprehensible orders given by someone anymore, and the annoying training will be over too.”
“Commander, sir!”
Leaving behind a farewell that was as indifferent as the 5 years they had spent together and.
“With this, you are disbanded.”
Only his last command.
