Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 1404

With mixed feelings, Lucifer asked, "An opportunity? What do you mean?"

Nathan explained, "Aren't you always envious of me? Didn't you always refuse to obey me and wish to be the General of the North? Now I'm giving you an opportunity to prove yourself. We'll have a straight fight. If you win, I'll allow you to bring Sky back unconditionally; if you lose, you and your men must surrender immediately!"

Lucifer stared at Nathan in disbelief.

Why would Nathan Cross want to fight me head-to-head?

After all, Nathan could hide behind the troops of Bossania and command his helicopters and tanks.

Fighters from the Leeroy family were stunned as well.

They finally realized that the general really didn't wish to slaughter them because they were his comrades!

Hence, many of them began to feel ashamed of themselves as they were totally incomparable to the general, who was considering the big picture.

Lucifer also noticed that his men had subconsciously been convinced by Nathan.

He couldn't help but feel surprised. He was now impressed by Nathan's wits in addition to his martial arts skills.

After all, his subordinates almost wanted to surrender immediately after listening to Nathan's poignant remarks.

Lucifer knew he now had no choice but to accept Nathan's challenge!

If he refused to accept Nathan's challenge, his subordinates would have the impression that Nathan values their lives more than himself. In that case, he feared they would all betray him.

After taking a deep breath, Lucifer met Nathan's eyes and said slowly, "Alright, I accept your proposal. Let's do it the old-fashioned way and resolve this with a fight between us."

Deep in Lucifer's heart, he still believed that he would survive his crisis once he brought Sky back.

Nathan and Lucifer stood between the two groups of men and stared at each other coldly.

Lucifer squinted at Nathan. "I've actually imagined many times that we would fight a duel to decide who is better. But I've never thought this day would arrive so soon!”

Nathan noted calmly, "You're actually a competent man with a bright future. Why would you choose to be a villain instead?"

Lucifer sneered, "History is always written by the winners, yet we're not sure who the winner is. Who knows? You might be the villain in the end!"

Lucifer then cracked his neck to make a popping noise and said energetically, "Anyway, talk is cheap. Let's resolve this with our fists!"

Nathan immediately replied, "Come on!"
