Chapter 11: [Arc – Little Explorer] Chapter 10 – The commander-in-chief announced something, the seven generals gathered!
Lestari pushed a large door with both hands, the brown door opened wide and she stepped into a very spacious room. The magnificent room that functions as a place for discussion has quality furniture, such as chandeliers, red curtains, marble round tables and soft back chairs. Not only furniture, the tiled-floored room was decorated with various elegant decorations, namely landscape paintings, patterned jars, flower vases, red carpets, and an eagle statue made of gold.
The Seven Skyscraping Generals had been waiting for Lestari's arrival under the glass ceiling of the room, they appeared in casual clothes and sat on chairs, around a round table.
Each general is accompanied by an assistant who is tasked with providing escort, the assistants are seen wearing uniforms and carrying weapons according to their fighting skills, they stand by the seven generals, then suspect everything in order to maintain the safety of important people on the island of Aska.
When Lestari had shown herself in the discussion room, the seven generals immediately got up from their chairs and gave greetings and salutations. The assistants did not take such formal action, they just held the butt of their weapons and looked around the room, they prepared themselves to act if a threat came targeting the Commander.
Lestari walked straight to the big chair on the stage, she climbed the stairs, then sat down casually. Visibility becomes wider, Lestari can pay attention to the movements of all people in the discussion room.
A few moments later, five male servants came wearing all white clothes from behind a red curtain, they brought a large fan, fruit and drinks. The five servants climbed the stage steps and served the Commander, they swung the handle of a large fan, and gently massaged Lestari’s shoulders. One of the male servants crawled in front of Lestari to support the Commander straightened legs.
Lestari raised her right hand, then she supported her chin, suddenly the seven generals stopped their respectful attitude and returned to their seats.
The skyscraper general has duties in various fields and assists the Commander in Chief in managing the Skyscraper and the welfare of the people on the island of Aska.
The general is 36 years old, named Ardi Huchatte Arlan, he is a good older brother, he loves his younger brother, namely Lestari. Ardi has brown hair, black eyes, fair skin, height 185cm, his body is not muscular, and inexperienced in fighting. His expertise in mastering economics led him to be appointed General of the Skyscrapers by his own brother.
The 30-year-old female general, Safira Gautama Arsobi, has a charming body, long black hair, charming black eyes, tan skin, 175cm height, and sexy curves that make it difficult for playboy to take their eyes off. Safira didn’t like fighting, but liked toying with men. General Safira was in charge of the layout of towns and villages, she was also in charge of arranging the location of the gondola buildings and the explorer camp in the Reliquia tower.
A burly general wearing armor, his name was Monno Demma. Monno is 50 years old, 210cm tall, tan skin, brown hair and black eyes. Monno always carries a big sword on his back, he loves the weapon his wife gave him. Lestari is the only person who can humiliate Monno by slashing his face with a dagger, the wound caused by the scratch leaves stitches that never go away. The grim-faced general always obeyed Lestari’s orders. Monno carries out security duties, he uses his experience to eradicate a demon cult group that terrorizes the residents of Aska.
Sunardi Boedi Oetamo, a 65-year-old general who has a curved mustache. Despite his advanced age, Sunardi’s body is still in very good shape, he is stocky, brown-skinned, 175cm tall, has no hair or is bald and his eyes are brown. Sunardi is a former airship captain from the Kejasari kingdom, he once faced Lestari and as a result he lost his left hand, since King Kejasari was killed, he surrendered and became a prisoner of war. Lestari needed someone who was professional in managing artillery attacks and airship battle strategies, so she released Sunardi who was still a prisoner, then appointed him to be the Skyscraper General. Sunardi does not hold a grudge, instead he is grateful to Lestari for helping to restore the collapsed Kejasari kingdom and supporting the needs of the people until the Kejasari economy is fully recovered.
Minalian Huchatte Eridis, the youngest general at 22 years old. Mina is a girl who has black hair and orange eyes, her body is not too full, her height is 170cm, and she has white skin. Minalian comes from the Houten Eridis kingdom whose average population has orange eyes. When she was 9 years old, Mina was an orphan who lived in a narrow alley, one day she met Lestari who was buying a lot of wood in the Houten kingdom, she approached the figure of a woman who was nicknamed the angel of death, and asked for food. Mina was actually brought by Lestari to the Van Dean kingdom and made an adopted child, she was sent to a medical academy and scored brilliant achievements. Minalian has a duty in the medical field, she works in the lab to research microorganisms found in the Reliquia tower, research medicine, and others.
The general in charge of immigration, Erwin Ji, organizes and screens people who migrate to the island of Aska, without Erwin’s role, Aska will be entered by a criminal or a dangerous fugitive. Erwin is 41 years old, ideal body, 181cm height, white skin, black hair and black eyes. Erwin likes quiet, he is always quiet and will speak only when there is something important. Closing his eyes is Erwin’s bad habit, he almost never opens his eyes, and is always guided by his assistant when he wants to travel. Lestari knows the reason why Erwin is reluctant to open his eyes when he is not working, he is traumatized by seeing his toddler son run over by a horse-drawn carriage. Lestari has tried her best to treat Erwin’s trauma, but to no avail.
“Today, the 17th of Agaste, we have all gathered in the discussion room. We are not discussing operation or anything else. I just wanted to convey, at this moment, that I am not occupying the throne of Commander-in-Chief for a while. The reason is that I will explore the Reliquia tower, possibly up to a height of 153km. Therefore, I request that all of you take good care of this island while I’m not around...”
“Especially Monno Demma, lately demon worshipers have shown their existence, my daughter is a victim of their ferocity, I order you to deploy a stabbing division to hunt down those demon worshipers. Cooperate with Safira if you have trouble understanding the city plans or village,” continued Lestari.
Monno and Safira stood up from their chairs, they both put their right hands on their left shoulders and heeded Lestari’s orders in a firm voice, “Understood!” After that they both sat back down on the chairs.
“Next Sunardi, order the combat airships to shoot down Acmalos dragon, or send an anti-air crossbow to where the monster Acmalos is.”
Sunardi stood up from the chair and placed his right hand on his left shoulder, “Understood!” Then he sat back down.
The general named Ardi stood up after Lestari spoke thus, he held his left shoulder with his right hand and grinned widely.
Lestari immediately glanced cynically at her brother who smiled at her. Lestari had a bad feeling, she guessed that something embarrassing was about to happen.
“Oh, my beloved sister! Be careful when wandering, if something happens please contact your brother, yes. Your brother will always be there for you. Don’t worry, you will beat up the lost people who have harmed your child!” Ardi babbled, while doing a series of ridiculous body movements.
Lestari clapped her hands, then gave orders to the assistants, “Take this person out of the room.”
Instantly the assistants shouted, “Understood!” Then they dragged Ardi towards the exit.
“Eeeeeh! Why did you take me out? Even though you didn’t mean to riot and love you so much. Muach! Muach!” Those were Ardi’s last words before he was expelled from the discussion room.
Meanwhile, Mina is seen holding back laughter because of her uncle’s behavior that invites laughter.
“Minalian, if you fail to hold back your laughter, I will drag you into a concentration camp,” Lestari threatened, she glanced sharply at her adopted daughter.
“I’m sorry mother—I mean your highness Mrs. Lestari.” Mina stood up and lowered her head deeply.
“I want speak, Mrs. Lestari...” Rigel, who was leaning casually on the chair, stood up immediately while straightening his hair, “A week ago a fantastic phenomenon occurred around Segoro village. Blue light tore through the clouds in the sky. Does Mrs. Lestari know anything about that?”
“I’m asking you to talk, not ask.”
“Hmmm. You are keeping something from us, Commander.” Rigel smirked slightly, closing his left eye.
“Rigel, you get the first warning, if you get the second, the concentration camp will be waiting for you,” Lestari threatened.
“But Mrs.Lestari, the public must know the truth. We must not manipulate the facts, if found out, the Aska people’s trust in the Skyscraper will fade,” Rigel protested calmly.
Lestari raised her right hand and spread her fingers, “Aorka, if my index finger bends down, then you are my enemy and I will kill you.”
Instantly Rigel bowed his head, “Forgive my impudence, Mrs. Lestari.”
“Sit down, there’s nothing to worry about,” said Lestari, lowering her right hand.
“Well.” Rigel obeyed Lestari’s orders, he sat back down and pondered. However, his gaze showed that Rigel was stupefied with immense irritation.
“This meeting will be meaningless if it continues. Please disperse,” said Lestari, she stood up from the big chair and got off the stage.

The generals were still sitting in their chairs, they were waiting for Lestari to come out of the room first. After the Commander had left the discussion room, everyone dispersed.Monno Demma and Sunardi walked with Rigel down the hall, while their assistant followed behind.
“You’ve made a big mistake, Rigel,” said Monno.
“I know. However, I’m not afraid,” with an arrogant tone, Rigel replied to Monno’s words.
“Lestari has said your last name and tried to hold her index finger from bending. Lestari is holding back her anger. If at that time her index finger was bent down, then you will walk with us headless.” Sunardi gave a warning to Rigel.
“I’ve already apologized. There’s nothing to worry about. You guys are overreacting, seem to scare me. Oh, don’t tell me you’re traumatized by Lestari’s reaction to being beaten up by her, right?” Rigel smirked.
Monno and Sunardi were silent for a moment after hearing Rigel’s words, they looked at Rigel who was walking leisurely.
“Maybe you’re right, we were traumatized. Remember this is Rigel, don’t ever deal with Lestari if you don’t want to be traumatized like us,” said Monno.
“Huh, I’m not at all interested in dealing with Lestari,” replied Rigel.
“It’s up to you,” Sunardi grumbled.
....
Lestari walked alone in the hallway, she was heading to where Ristia was, she believed that the golden haired girl was fine in the abandoned room. Suddenly, Lestari heard the commotion in the abandoned room, she ran to the door of the room and opened it. It turned out that there was a fight between Ristia and Ardi in that dusty place, they both cursed each other and put up their horses.
“Taste this. Ciattt!” Ardi jumps from the table, he spreads his arms and straightens his right leg, he intends to lunge at Ristia’s body. Ristia calmly grabbed Ardi’s right leg tightly, then she turned around and slammed the General to the floor.
“How does it feel to be slammed by a snotty brat, huh!?” Ristia clicked her fingers, while looking at Ardi with an annoyed look.
“N-Nice,” replied Ardi, he gave a thumbs up.
Ristia felt disgusted and horrified, “Even though I beat, kicked, and slammed, but why don’t you feel pain? Could it be that you are a masochist?”
“Don’t call me that. I just let myself be beaten by a cute girl like you. Oh. You remind me of my sister, when she was little she was so adorable, just like you.”
“To hell with your sister! Now die!” Ristia strangled Ardi’s neck, but only kidding. The brown-haired general pretended to be in pain, he writhed while letting out a charade of theatrical moans.
“Ristia....” Lestari called, she stood between the door of the room with a sad look.
“M-Mom!?” Instantly Ristia stopped her choking.
“Eh? Mother?” Ardi is confused.
“That person is my brother, he is your uncle. His name is Ardi, a general, not a threat,” explained Lestari.
“HAH!? This weirdo is your brother, mother? Then he’s my uncle and a General?” Ristia was very surprised.
“It turns out that you are my nephew, yes, I thought you were an extraterrestrial who would invade this planet,” sneered Ardi.
“Oi, talk again I will sew your mouth,” threatened Ristia.
“OH. The planet orbits not far from its parent star. The words of the mother and child are both hot, ah, my heart is burning.”
My uncle is no longer helped. Ristia thought.
“Ristia, we are leaving.” Lestari grabbed her daughter’s right hand, she took the golden-haired girl out of the abandoned room.
“Wait my sister.”
Lestari stopped and looked back, glancing at her brother with sad eyes, “What?”
Ardi took out a small stuffed duck from his trouser pocket, about the size of an adult’s palm. The white stuffed duck looks dull and has patches of cloth.
“I managed to find your favorite doll in our old house, this doll was found in a damaged condition, so i fixed it,” said Ardi, he smiled sweetly.
Lestari walked up to Ardi, she lowered her head, watched the stuffed duck for a moment, she took her favorite item from her brother’s hand, then said, “You have a lot of work and your assistant is waiting for you outside the room.”
“Oh, that’s right. Bye.” Ardi hastily left the abandoned room, he still had time to poke Ristia’s topknot with the intention of making fun of her.
God damn it! Ristia thought, she was very angry with Ardi’s actions.
“Brother....” Lestari called out in a low voice.
Ardi stopped his footsteps and he looked back at his sister.
“Thank you,” said Lestari, smiling sweetly.
Ardi immediately grinned widely when he received the words, he gave a thumbs up, then replied, “You’re welcome.” Then he came out of the abandoned room feeling happy and stepped out with his assistant.
The behavior of the man named Ardi is disturbing, but my uncle is a kind-hearted brother. If I had a younger brother-sister, then I would have to follow in my uncle’s footsteps, which is to become a real big sister. Ah, I want to have a younger brother-sister. Ristia thought.
