"In addition, I grant you a sacred-class mansion. You may choose any resources you want from the Great Shaw Empire's treasury. You do not need to kneel before the throne, and you may punish first and report later!"
Eira continued to read out the rewards. Each one was more valuable than the last.
Then the Empress shifted her gaze slightly and looked at the people standing behind Aiden.
"Luke, you showed no fear in the face of danger and helped defend the Sovereign City. I grant you the title of General Who Guards the Empire!"
"James, your battle achievements are great. I grant you the title of General Protector of the Empire!"
"Vespera, you killed the traitor Owen. I grant you the title of General of Peaceful Frontiers!"
The three of them stepped forward together and bowed to accept the orders.
"We thank Your Majesty for your great kindness!"
As the rewards were handed out, the atmosphere in the hall reached its peak.
