"he?"
Arash, who was standing aside, heard Bahram suddenly ask him this, and was stunned at first, then looked at Hayes and frowned.
"This is..."
"Company Commander Hayes, don't lower your head."
Hayes, who was touched by Bahram, shook his head suddenly, then put his feet together and raised his chest, saluted a standard military salute and said loudly:
"Haes Bartori, the company commander of the 3rd Company, 2nd Battalion, 73rd Regiment of the 13th Division of Kermansha, pays tribute to the ruling chief!"
Seeing that although the company commander tried hard to restrain his arms and knees were still trembling slightly, Soshiyang nodded slightly and said calmly:
"Hello, Lieutenant Hayes, let's take a break."
"yes!"
After seeing his face, Alash's brows tightened even more because he seemed to have no such person in his memory. Then he shook his head and looked at Bahram.
"Brother Bahram, this guy...I don't seem to have any impression of it?"
"But he said...he had taken a photo with you."
"Ah? Is there any?"
After hearing what Arash said, although Hayes's entire brain was almost empty at this time, for some reason, he suddenly felt a sense of courage, took two steps forward, and then took off his helmet to reveal his signature hairstyle.
"Sir! Do you still remember this!"
In just one second, Arash's expression changed, showing a sudden enlightenment expression, and pointed two fingers at Hayes.
"Ahhh, yes, yes, I remember it, it's you, the little guy with thirteen hairs, why... it's too, many years have passed."
Arash walked up to Hayes and looked at the "little warrior" in his memory with a little sigh. He had grown a lot, but his face changed a lot, and he also wore an eye mask, so he didn't recognize him at all from the beginning.
"Your eyes...is this hand a mechanical prosthesis? What happened? I remember your troops seemed to be... Oh, it's that Alni Morales' regiment, right?"
"Yes, sir, we're behind..."
Just as Arash talks with Hayes, Soshyan summons Bahram to his side.
"What's the situation?"
"The commander of the battle, Lieutenant Hays was once a member of the Great Vortex Expeditionary Force, and should have been recruited by the local government, and he was also a soldier under the new governor of Badabu. He once took a photo with the commander of the Arash War in a battle. I saw that photo, so I wanted to bring him to meet with the Arash brothers, after all, he was an old friend."
Then Bahram raised his hand and pointed at Hayes.
"And his performance is also excellent. I can see that he is basically a group of recruits under his command, but he can use his personal charm and care to keep them away from fear and chaos as much as possible. I have seen many officers who lead the way, and I have also seen them as one of the officers and soldiers. But Hays has a unique ability. He can empathize with the soldiers, know what destruction is being suffered by their young hearts, allow them to cry, allow them to complain, and rather than talking about the commander... He is more like their father, a father. He also performed well in his battles. He is not only brave, but also able to pay attention to some details on the battlefield. His command ability cannot be seen as clever or not, at least not bad."
Soshiyang nodded thoughtfully, then smiled:
"You gave a very high rating, Bahram."
"Because I saw it with my own eyes."
Soshyan walked over immediately, and he couldn't help but smack his tongue when he looked at Hayes's unique hairstyle.
"Magic, magical, this is such a lucky hair. No wonder he survived the sea of ​​blood again and again."
"What's so lively?"
Seth, who was not far away, also walked over after seeing it. When he saw the hair on Hayes' head, his big face also squeezed out a surprised expression.
"How many of these are there, one, two...thirteen! Oh, the whole thirteen are they born? Or are they kept by themselves?"
Arash, who was standing beside him, immediately replied:
"I met him when he was young, and that was it then."
"Tsk tsk tsk, something interesting, what is this called? The Emperor's lucky number?"
As he said that, Seth also plucked the hair on Hayes' head, but the strong smell of blood on the Space Marine made Hayes feel palpitations, as if he was standing next to a man-eating beast. His instincts were calling him to run away quickly.
But how dare he move now?
Fortunately, the other party stopped quickly.
"Lt. Hayes, since you were an Arni soldier, why...don't you follow him to Badab?"
Hearing Soshiyan's voice, Hays quickly saluted and replied loudly:
"Report to the Lord General, because...I don't want to cause trouble to others!"
"Haha, what trouble can you cause? He is the governor and there is a big family behind it. Arranging you alone is not a problem. This is the reason..."
As he said that, Soshiyang remembered something and frowned slightly.
"At that time, Alny's troops were almost wiped out... Lieutenant Hays, do you have a medal?"
Hearing this, Hayes blinked a little confused.
"medal..."
Seeing what Soshiyang guessed like this, he continued to ask:
"Your injuries fell in the battle of the Falling Moon, right?"
"Yes."
"Did you return to the original troops after the war?"
Hayes hesitated for a moment and finally replied:
"No."
"Your troops have not looked for you?"
"This...I don't know, I was taken to the temporary medical station in the rear after being injured."
Soshiyang nodded.
"You immigrated to Kermansha?"
"Yes, Chief, I will have the opportunity to come to such a prosperous and beautiful new world."
"Have you started a family?"
Hayes didn't answer this time, just nodded.
"Have you a child?"
“Three.”
Soshiyang looked at the other person, and after his thoughts flowed for a moment, he suddenly asked a question.
"Do you miss them?"
Hayes was stunned at first, and after thinking for a few seconds, hesitated:
"Reply to the Chief Executive, I think."
"Let's do this, you are both a veteran and disabled person. I owe you a medal. If you want to go back, I will give you a special approval to follow some of the wounded to return to your hometown."
At this moment, Hayes was first surprised and immediately wanted to agree, but then his expression changed and he finally shook his head.
"Sir, thank you for your concern. I... can't go back now."
"Oh? Why?"
