Therefore, when Mayor Flanders saw Old Porter visiting, his expression changed.
He immediately knew something was wrong, so he asked his wife to take their daughter to play and gestured to his nervous eldest son to relax and put down his gun. Only then did he sit down with Captain Porter in the backroom of the country house to talk.
Old Porter wasn't a man of many words, so after a simple greeting, he used his conspicuous mechanical arm to take a letter from his pocket and handed it to Flanders. The mayor frowned as soon as he opened it.
It was a conscription order.
But not a simple conscription order.
Unlike other drafted militias, Flanders' document had three seals at the bottom, in addition to the personal seals of Governor Murphy and The Grand Duke of Triss, which held special significance for a former Armed Blood Servant.
That is, the mission represented by this conscription order could not be refused!
"Inviting me to serve as a brigadier general for the Transia Militia?"
