"Brigadier General..."
The leading military officer shuddered, immediately saluting Martha Barnes with the precision of a military ritual.
The soldiers standing on both sides of the gate also reacted, all saluting Erina uniformly.
Erina's face remained cold as she returned the salute.
The leading officer immediately beamed and jogged over, standing at attention in front of Erina.
On his dark face, a blush of embarrassment and nervousness appeared.
"Brigadier General Coldwell." The young man reported energetically, "We are on a mission, and we received orders to come and seal this shop."
Brigadier General Coldwell?
Lily noted the officer's address toward Martha Barnes.
Shouldn't he be calling her Brigadier General Barnes?
Erina nodded to show she understood, her demeanor still soft and cute, but her words carried an air of authority.
