Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 1968

The men were actually Channing military district soldiers.

They were sent by Franklin to help Nathan clean up.

Penny and her family had a hunch that they were military men. At the same time, they realized that even though he was no longer General of the North, Nathan still exercised significant influence in the military.

Apprehensively, Sean asked, “Nathan, why did you kill Sherman? This is it. We have offended the Mighty Rax, and there is no turning back. We'll have to face the wrath of this man.

“What should we do when he comes to avenge his son?”

Nathan merely smiled and said, “Don't worry. I am here to solve every problem coming our way. Even though I'm no longer the General of the North, but I still have some influence in the military, and there's no need to live in fear of Rax.”

Sean heaved a sigh of relief at Nathan's remarks. He sighed, “I really hope we can get over this soon.

“Don't worry, Sean. I'll make sure to settle this as soon as possible,” Nathan reassured the man.

Sherman and his gang were all dead.

This meant that the Goldstein family had failed at their attempt at seeking revenge.

Nathan and Penny's family decided to move back to the Riverside Garden instead of staying at the Smith family home.

After they were home, Kylie could not help but say to Nathan, “Nathan, you were really awesome today. The Sick Scholar was really good with his swords but you beat him so easily. You're so cool.”

Penny poured her husband a cup of tea. Amazed by Kylie's boldness, she commented, “Kylie, you're a girl. How are you so excited about seeing the bloody battle? Aren't you even a little afraid?”

“Why would I? I don't have to, since Nathan's around.” Kylie grinned.

Penny shook her head. “He is not invincible, you know.

“He's offended the Davier family, and now he's crossed the Mighty Rax. I'm really worried sick.”

Right then, Penny turned to Nathan and asked,

“Hubby, I don't think the Mighty Rax will let us off easily What will you do if he seeks revenge?” “I still have some influence in the military. Don't worry, I will handle this.”

Penny said nothing further after listening to her husband.

Meanwhile, at the Lamburg Mountain Villa in Saphira Mountain.

Rax was playing the harp at the gazebo.

A helper stood aside and threw some fish feed into the pond. A school of colorful koi fish competed for the food.

A sudden clattering of footsteps headed toward him.

“There's more?” Rax's eyes widened.

Cruel Blade lowered his head and reported with a shaky voice, “Mr. Sherman... has passed!”

Rax's pupils dilated as a murderous aura emanated from the man, sweeping across the place.

“What did you say?”

Cruel Blade groveled on the floor and said, “Master Rax, not only did Nathan Cross kill Mr. Erikson, but he also took Mr. Sherman's life as well. Their bodies had been sent back here, and sprawled across the entrance of the villa.”

Rax boiled with fury as he heard Cruel Blade's report.

Infuriated, the man slammed the harp on the table.

The harp strings snapped from the momentum, filling the air with piercing sounds, and sending ripples off the surface of the lake as if naval mines had been set off.

After a moment, the air grew still.

Lake water gently rocked as dead fish turned their bellies up and floated to the surface.

Rax's eyes turned red from fury and he bellowed, “I am going to lay waste to Channing and avenge my son.
