Chapter 1924


    Colin lowered his head and sighed. “Not so good. We lost arge chunk of our men in the Air Force


    on the very first day, but the casualty rate went down sharply from then onwards. About ten


    thousand men perished on the battlefield... “


    Nathan grimaced. “When was thest time we suffered such a loss?”


    “The Xyperian forces suffered an even greater loss, Chief,” Colin said. “They lost twice as many


    men as us.


    “Yeah, Chief!” a member of the Elite Eight said while nodding. “The whole world knows of our victory


    against the Xyperians and the Dragonyer Special Troops!”


    “By the way, Chief, President Woods has made sure to prevent news of your incapacitation from


    reaching the ears of the media. There is no need to worry about it,” Colin added. “President Woods


    is waiting for your return to Brimmopolis, Chief! He promised to bestow the title upon you officially!”


    Suddenly, the door to the ward open, and in came Rupert Rothschild, who was the director of North


    Army Hospital, as well as Fang, Destroyer and Heptakill.


    “I''m d you''re awake, Chief!” Fang cried.


    Nathan smiled. “Did I make you worry?”


    “We were terrified, Chief,” Fang said with a sigh. “Don''t you know how many Critical Illness Notices


    Dr. Rothschild has given us over the past two weeks?”


    Nathan''s eyes widened in shock. Critical Illness


    Notices?


    Rupert nodded. “That''s right. The poison has spread to your entire body after the battle. The


    average person would have died by then, but you hung on due to your sheer will and determination.


    Whenever your condition worsened, I would ask the nurse to read you your daughter''s letter, and


    you would magically stabilize within seconds.”


    Nathan chuckled. “Looks like my condition was worse than I thought. I didn''t even know that


    happened.”


    Suddenly, he sat up straight on his bed, as though he had been reminded of something. “You didn''t


    send the Critical illness Notices to my family, did you?”


    Rupert shook his head. “I didn''t. President Woods has made sure to keep your injuries a secret, and


    even the cab didn''t know about it. Everyone thinks that you''re just settling some post-war


    matters and will return to Brimmopolis to receive your awards and official title.”

    Nathan nodded. “That''s great to hear.”


    His position as the Chief Military Governor was not yet official, and his victory against Xyperia would


    secure him that title once and for all.


    However, that was not what he was concerned about.


    He was d that the North Army Hospital had the foresight to avoid sending Critical Illness Notices


    to his family, since Penny and Queenie would have been scared to death if that had happened.


    Rupert gave Nathan a simple checkup, and he was delighted to conclude that Nathan was out of


    the woods for good. “You''ll just need to rest for around a month or two before you can continue with


    your usual activities,” he told Nathan with a smile.


    Meanwhile, back in Brimmopolis...


    Garrett''s shoulders sagged in relief the moment he heard that Nathan was safe and sound.


    He turned to his guards and said, “Send him a coded message to return to Brimmopolis as soon as


    possible for the ceremony. I need to bestow him the position of Chief Military Governor before


    anyone in the cab can object to it!” “Yes, Mr. President!”
