Robinson opened the ID uneasily.
Nathan's name and photograph were on it.
Other than that, his rank and appointment were written there as well.
Unit: North Army Headquarters
Appointment: Commander-in-chief of North Army
Rank: General
Robinson's hands started shaking uncontrollably.
His men and especially Cassandra, was shocked when they saw the contents on the ID.
Don't tell me this brat is really a general!
Robinson glanced at Nathan and refused to believe that this man was General of the North.
Cassandra came to her senses and retorted, "No wonder this man was bold enough to call himself a general! He's even gotten himself a fake ID!"
Robinson's eyes lit up, "Fake?"
Cassandra smiled, "Robinson, don't be intimidated by him. There are forgers for all sorts of documents and IDs everywhere. Graduation certificates, licenses, and even military IDs. Any forger could get you one for the cheap price of a hundred.”
A look of realization dawned upon Robinson.
He spat, "Darn, I nearly got fooled by this fake ID."
Several patrols had arrived to back Robinson up.
Robinson immediately commanded these men with live ammunition, "Arrest these troublemakers and scammers!"
"Roger!"
Dozens of fully-equipped soldiers approached Nathan and surrounded him.
