Salute To The General

Since Malcolm was not only the President of Volk but also the host, Max, Catherine, and the representatives of other nations came forward to greet him after the soldiers were done saluting him.

After returning their greetings calmly, Malcolm swept his gaze across the devastation that resulted before turning his attention to Nathan.

Despite being a pacifist, Malcolm wasn't a weakling at all.

He remarked with a grim voice, "Chief Cross, this is the second time you have trespassed into Volk. Don't you think you owe me an explanation?"This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

At that moment, everyone turned their attention to Nathan who replied calmly, "Mr. Stryker, we have been planning for a long time to have a meeting. It's just that we were unable to decide on a suitable time and place. Hence, I have decided to come today without advance notice."

Malcolm snorted, "I have been sincerely trying to hold discussions with Eurasia. However, the West Army has been constantly provoking my nation. Now that even you have encroached upon our territory with your men, how am I to believe that you are looking for a peaceful solution?"

Max was aware that Malcolm was a pacifist who had refused to join the alliance.

As a result, he was secretly delighted to hear Malcolm speak to Nathan in a hostile tone.

If Eurasia's Chief Military Governor is unable to give Malcolm a satisfactory explanation, Malcolm would likely turn from a dove into a hawk. Despite the circumstances, Nathan replied with a plain smile, "I had the impression from the multiple conversations we shared that both sides intend to resolve the conflict peacefully. Moreover, I never had the intention of coming to Volk until I learned that your country intended to participate in the S8 Summit to announce your entry into the alliance. Furthermore, when I heard that a conflict had been ignited between the West Army and Volk's Ares Squad, I had no choice but to come."

Nathan was obviously telling Malcolm that he had to put them in their respective place after Volk had decided to join the alliance in an attempt to blockade and subdue Eurasia.

In addition, his words also served as a warning to Volk that if they carried out their plan, self-annihilation was the only thing that awaited them. Initially, Malcolm was outraged by the fact that the Chief Military Governor of Eurasia had trespassed on Volk and beaten up Isaiah and his men. But having heard Nathan's words, the flames of his anger were doused a little.

During his calls with Nathan, he had declared with conviction that Volk wouldn't join the alliance to blockade and go against Eurasia.

However, he failed to suppress

Isaiah's influence internally which

led to Volk becoming the special guest at that 88 Summit.

Subsequently, news of Volk joining the alliance began to spread.

Given that he was the one at fault, his courage to speak weakened accordingly.

The moment the words left Malcolm's mouth, Max's expression darkened significantly, for he had spent a significant amount of effort in recruiting Volk.

However, he didn't expect Volk to finally reject joining the alliance out of fear of Eurasia.

Despite the anger he felt, he could only look in Isaiah's direction, for the latter was a hawk compared to the dovish Malcolm.

Unfortunately, Isaiah no longer had

the authority of the past, as his arm had been severed by Nathan, while his body was being restrained by Eurasian soldiers.
