Elias seemed to have overexerted himself and nearly fell as he coughed violently.

Nash hurriedly wrapped an arm around Elias' shoulders and patted his back, sending a gust of spiritual energy into his body as he turned to Kaden and said, "General Copper, please don't say that!"

Elias was not in as great a shape as Kaden was. He was nearing his hundredth birthday and already had one leg in his coffin. His blood pressure spiked anytime he became even the slightest bit agitated. Kaden seemed to realize he had gone overboard and fell silent.

Elias calmed down and sat on his chair as he said slowly, "Arguing with you won't get us anywhere. Let's have Nash make the final decision. Whoever Nash thinks will be the best fit will become the next commander of the Divine Strategy Squadron!" Nash felt a headache forming when he heard that.

If he were the one making the final decision, he would be offending someone no matter who he chose, right?

"Actually, I think..."

"Stop. You must make this decision on our behalf!"

Kaden stopped Nash from saying no.

After a moment's hesitation, Nash looked at the two men and asked, "Are you sure you want me to choose?"

Both men nodded in sync.

A sly grin appeared on Elias' face.

Nash's girlfriend was Dallas' granddaughter, which was why he had no doubt Nash would choose Dallas.

When Kaden saw the grin on Elias' face, the muscles on his face twitched as he said, "Remember to be fair, Nash. Mr. Varhess is watching you from the heavens!"

The corner of Nash's lips jerked. Were they trying to put more pressure on him?

The smile on Elias' face froze as he said somberly, "I'm sure Mr. Varhess will respect your decision!"

Nash drew in several deep breaths before saying slowly, "I choose..."

Both Elias and Kaden held their breaths as they stared at Nash intently. ""Benedict!"

Nash made his final decision.

A bright smile immediately appeared on Kaden's face. "Good job, young man. You've got a good eye!"

A glum look appeared on Elias' face. "That young man is not as mature as he should be. I'm afraid he won't be able to succeed in that position!"

Kaden hurriedly said, "None of this

matters. Nash has already made decision. Draft a letter of

confirmation of appoit

his

have the Sovereign sign it!

Elias looked up at Nash. "Are you sure you want to choose Benedict? Do you want to give it more thought?"

Kaden said impatiently, "Hey, old man, are you done talking or not?"

"Shut up..."

Kaden realized that Elias had genuinely lost his temper this time, and he said meekly, "Well, either way, you can't change Nash's decision!" Nash explained why he ultimately chose Benedict.

"I've worked with Benedict in the

past. Indeed, he's not as mature as he could be, but I believe that Mr.

Varhess' sacrifice will act

catalyst for him to mature tent

"Additionally, Benedict is talented in martial arts, and he's got the physique for it. Once he matures more, his skills will improve at an astonishing rate. I'm confident that he can take on Mr. Varhess' responsibilities and lead the Divine Strategy Squadron well!"

That was why Nash had chosen Benedict.

Elias was just worried Benedict was not mature or grounded enough.

After all, the Divine Strategy Squadron was considered a governmental organization.

As commander of the Divine Strategy Squadron, even an offhand comment could influence the country's state of mind.

However, Nash believed that Benedict would flourish from the pain of his great-grandfather's death.

Perhaps the current Benedict would be vastly different from the previous Benedict.

After hearing Nash's explanation, Elias smiled understandingly and said, "Aren't you worried Dallas will stop you from entering his home after this?" Nash smiled. "Mr. Cricton is a wise man. I'm sure he'll understand the motives behind my actions!"

Elias' phone, which he had placed on the table, began ringing. The screen showed it was a call from Dallas.

When he answered the phone, Dallas' excited voice immediately rang out from the other end of the line, "Sir Landon, great news! I've got great news!"
