The wind blew against a piece of cloth bound on a long pole, the cloth was engraved with the symbol of the Nestrad Kingdom fluttering on top of a small building.
From a distance, a messenger soldier from the command center of the Nestrad Kingdom drove his horse towards the entrance of the guard post. The horse he was carrying carried a large bag containing sheets of paper sealed with magic circles.
The messenger soldier arrived and prepared to report to one of the leaders in charge of leading this guard post.
A middle-aged man with an intimidating look on his face walked out from the main door of the guard post. The remains of his half-burned face and one of his slashed eyes caused a terrifying impression from just the look of his two eyes. The man stared at the soldier who was carrying an important message from the central command. With his body trembling due to the middle-aged man's appearance, he tried to give the warrant away.
The middle-aged appearance was shrouded in a black robe that almost covered his entire body. As his hand came out from under his cloak, a rank and award medal attached to his clothes made the messenger soldier shocked. His body that had originally trembled in fear was now back on its feet. Not only did he become confident again, the messenger soldier even gave him a military salute in honor of the middle-aged man's merit.
The middle-aged man ignored the messenger soldier and walked away leaving him.
The messenger soldier then left after feeling enough respect for the figure he admired. His mood was now refreshed after meeting the figure who became the pride of the Nestrad Kingdom.
Inside the command room of the guard post, the middle-aged man walked towards one of the sofas in the corner of his room. There, the figure of the girl lay with a small snoring that sounded. His saliva gave rise to patches of morning glow that ricocheted off the pillows that supported his head.
With a small warrant in his hand, the middle-aged man raised his hand and inserted some small magic that started to envelop the letter. The letter suddenly moved swiftly towards the sleeping girl. As the letter was about to hit the girl's head, a small knife managed to hold her back.
The girl slowly opened her eyes, looking cute but her body instincts were able to respond to danger even when she was asleep. The girl was shocked to learn that her little knife was holding a small paper covered in magic.
Yes, a small attack for surprise was successfully held back by the girl.
All of a sudden, the paper exploded and made a small commotion for the soldiers guarding this post.
“Eh? W-what is this?”
The girl innocently asked like that. He did not realize the attack he had just received had shattered the sofa he had fallen asleep on.
“Ohh- Daddy. good morning.. Hoooaam-“
Regardless of the damage around her, the girl fell asleep again.
With a thick robe still covering his body, he walked away leaving this guard post.
His frustration that he had been so cold was unbearable. This time, he went to change his mood and left an official order to hand over this chain of postal command centers to his daughter. Not a single soldier knew where this middle-aged man had gone.
But one thing is certain..
He just disappeared like a ghost.
This state became an uproar after the girl was fully conscious from her sleep. Seeing the contents of the room fall apart and the small paper left by his father makes the morning he experienced a new catastrophe.
Not only that, the stack of reports that had been completed was now scattered indistinctly. The girl realized her mistake was ignoring the hour of discipline on duty that her father had always reminded her of.
Since his father was now sulking, he had to accept these consequences.
Inevitably, he had to overcome the problems that had piled up in the previous day. Actually there is a military sanction that applies if the soldier neglects his duties. The military laws of the Nestrad Kingdom were quite heavy, but his father had handed over the chain of command to him. That girl is now taking responsibility.
Tears began to wash his eyes. The task her father left behind was enough to make her cry.
There have been several reports of people appearing lately. It could be said that the problems that the Nestrad Kingdom was experiencing were running non-stop.
There have been reports of child abductions taking place lately. Especially with the warrant in the hands of the girl makes them unable to move freely.
The letter contained restrictions on community activity and an official order for every soldier of the Nestrad Kingdom to carry out martial law protocols. With the existence of a martial law situation that will be imposed, it is enough to increase the burden of work to be done.
“What's going on anyway?”
The girl's mind floated after reading the warrant she had just received.
On the other hand, his father who had just left his duties was having fun enjoying his morning breakfast at the inn called Nekoya Inn.
