Chapter 27: The Legacy of General Fahar



Hansen stepped out from inside the base, accompanied by three Lieutenant Generals who had from the beginning been in charge of escorting Hansen.


"General Fahar!" Hansen called as he continued his steps.


"Sorry sir, I'm not a four-star general anymore. So just call me Lieutenant," General Fahar said as he stepped closer, his head seemed to be bowed because it felt bad about the story in the past.


" ... " Lt. Balin and Lieutenant Eliza looked at General Fahar because they had long been curious about what kind of mission General Fahar received to make his position demoted.


"Did you just interrupt me?" Hansen stopped his steps and glanced at General Fahar, who was standing right next to his right.


"Sa .. I don't dare sir!" General Fahar broke out in cold sweat and stopped his steps.


Hansen stepped forward, then turned around and patted General Fahar on both shoulders.


The atmosphere at that time felt so tense, especially for General Fahar who was haunted by events in the past.


"If I repeat the same mission to you, will you accept it again?" Hansen looked so serious. There was no doubt in his words or views.


"Not that I don't want to, but .. ," Fahar paused and said, "I'm afraid to let you down again, sir." General Fahar seemed so lethargic and insecure.


"Right now, only you are qualified to undertake this mission. There's not a single elite left that I can trust in this task. Neither in terms of strength, nor in terms of trust." Hansen looked at General Fahar expectantly.


"I know that, but ... ," General Fahar still seemed hesitant.


"Zero!" Hansen suddenly looked upset and full of emotion. "He has returned!"


"I know," General Fahar lowered his head with a face full of regret.


'me?'


'Why did Lieutenant Fahar suddenly change his formality?' Eliza looked curious.


"Fahar, stop blaming yourself. I never blamed you, really .. ," There was no doubt in Hansen's words at the time, and General Fahar was aware of it. But his heart and mind did not want to forgive the failure of his mission in the past.


"If I take this assignment, and then fail again, will you quit the military again?" General Fahar is still in his worst mood.


"If the events of the past happened again, leaving nothing for me, maybe it wasn't just this military that I'd leave." Hansen clasped Fahar's shoulder tightly as he gritted his teeth.


"You mean?" General Fahar started to raise his face.


"What does it mean to live without them" Hansen removed his hands from General Fahar's shoulders, then smiled while covering up the tears that had been painted on his face.


Seeing Hansen's expression that seemed so confident in him, General Fahar immediately bowed and said, "I'll make sure the events of the past will not happen again!"


"If I fail again in this mission, failing to protect either one or both, then I promise to live this life right then and there!"


" ... " Lt. General Balin and Lieutenant General Eliza could only fall silent while trying to understand what they were talking about.


'It appears that General Fahar's secret duty is related to the protection mission. And based on what I just heard, it looks like the person being protected is either Mr. X's family or loved ones.' Lieutenant General Eliza concluded very precisely. He realizes that most likely in the past General Fahar failed to protect one of the people that Mr. X or Hansen cared about.


'General Fahar is known for his record of never failing a mission, his failure to protect someone should not be the reason behind his demotion.' Lieutenant General Balin stared at Hansen along with Lieutenant General Eliza who concluded the same.


'The reason behind the demise of General Fahar, is because of the cessation of Mr. X from the military, which resulted in the dissolution of thousands of elites.' Lieutenant General Balin and Lieutenant General Eliza were convinced of their conclusion.


........


"Greetings sir!" everyone saluted, as Hansen walked out from inside the secret military headquarters building. They saluted along the red carpet as when Hansen had just come before. And at the end of the carpet, a luxurious black car belonging to the government used Hansen before.


There is also a look, Lieutenant Daffin who is holding the car door and waiting to invite Hansen in.


" I'll leave now, please protect them for me!" Hansen turned his back while looking at General Fahar who was already standing at the starting line of the red carpet, along with Lieutenant General Eliza and Lieutenant General Balin who were right beside him.


"Ready Sir!" General Fahar saluted without any more hesitation or guilt. There is only a sense of responsibility and wanting to make amends in the past.


"Then, I go first," Hansen saluted briefly by attaching his right index finger tip like what most soldiers do.


"Good way, sir!" Lieutenant General Eliza and all the soldiers there saluted simultaneously and never left, until Hansen really returned to his car.


Kink ...


"Take me to the jewel hotel!" Hansen gave instructions without hesitation.


"Do you not want to see your new villa and car first?" Lieutenant Daffin confirmed.


"Just do what I ask" Hansen said without hesitation.


"Good, Sir!" Lieutenant Daffin started running his car without asking much more questions.


....


" ... " Zaskia Arista waited at the reception desk while occasionally looking at the door to await Hansen's arrival. 'Is he really coming today?'


"Are you waiting for someone, Mom?" the long black-haired girl who served as a receptionist at that time, seemed to be astonished by what Zaskia Arista was doing.


"Just focus on your work" Zaskia Arista turned her head for a moment while smiling fiercely.


'Ah, I forgot. Ms. Zaskia hates people who interfere too much in their personal affairs, especially when they are in working hours, ' the receptionist girl was immersed in her wild thoughts.
