“Hold it.” Donald stuffed a piece of beef into his mouth. “The South Sea Military Region bears the responsibility for such matters, and it should be treated as top-secret information. You need not disclose it to me.”
“Well, you're not an outsider, Mr. Campbell. There's no need to keep any military secrets from you.”
Sophus, aware of Donald's true identity, chose to address him as “Mr. Campbell” to maintain the secrecy surrounding his persona.
“I know what you want. You want to drag me into the mess. Tell General Holk that I have a family now. It has been ages since I got involved in such dangerous missions. Tell him to find someone else.”
Donald had been guarding Quadfield for years, granting him familiarity with the elderly generals of the military regions.
Maynard Holk served as the general of the South Sea Military Region.
Although his name carried an air of sophistication, during the conflict between Astoria and Yorksland, it was Maynard who had led his troops southward to crush their adversaries.
If it hadn't been for the intervention from the government in Yaleview, Maynard would have undoubtedly conquered Astoria in its entirety.
“I knew you'd say that. Before I came here, General Holk had told me to bring something along. Don't worry. You won't serve for nothing,” Sophus said as he pulled out an exquisite wooden box from his pocket.
