After that, everyone at the venue gave a loud round of applause. And now Ivan was the new commander of the Kepler united army.
Gideon watched all of this with a sense of amusement. Could he make Ivan owe him a favor since he technically has his position because of him? That would be fun.
The event finally ended. Well, the first part of it anyway.
