After Breaking Up, I Married the General

Ryzel, a nineteen-year-old guide, was expecting to marry Dwight, but the man changed his mind a month before the wedding. “I’m sorry, Ryzel. I wanted a nice and compassionate wife, so I am going to marry Sean instead. Unlike you, who were usually preoccupied with other things, he always showed concern for me. Not to mention how highly compatible we are with one another. I've actually met him before, but he persuaded me to date you because he feels sorry for you." Without even waiting for Ryzel's response, the man left. Ryzel, who was left behind, can't even bother caring about his heart because he's been dealing with a lot of issues as a result of the sudden rejection. He was turning 20 in a month, which meant he had to be married according to the federation's laws. After he reaches the age of 20, the government's assistance will cease, leaving him to fend for his own expenses. If he is not married to a powerful sentinel, he will not be able to reclaim his inheritance and will be forced to die on the front lines. He instantly began looking for solutions, but his hope kept dwindling as his birthday approached without a proper solution to his problems. On the day he felt all hope was lost, his ex’s superior, General Lewis, proposed to him. "I'm not gentle and kind; my priority probably won’t be you; our compatibility may not be high; do you still want to marry me?" Ryzel questioned, fixing his gaze on the general. "It's okay, I don't need my wife to be gentle and kind. Our compatibility is also high. You can focus on your studies, job, or dreams. As long as you remember that you are my guide." “Okay, let’s get married.” ------------------------ This is the story of Ryzel's advancement in career and love life, even with all the troubles surrounding him.

Chapter 16: Rush Back to the Capital Star

"Lewis, your mental power is leaking," Mervin reminded Lewis while sweating because of the coercive pressure of the mental power he felt.

Reminded by Mervin, Lewis immediately retracted his mental power.

"Report the whole situation," Lewis ordered Mervin.

He wanted to know more about what happened.

"You are aware that Dwight and Ryzel have been dating for the past two years, correct?"

"Of course," Lewis nodded.

How could he ever forget the day when someone he wanted was out of his reach?

"It turns out that Dwight deceived Ryzel.

Who he loved was never Ryzel, but Ryzel's cousin.

Ryzel's cousin just asked Dwight to date Ryzel.

I think that is one of the reasons why Luke was very angry and became heavy-handed while sparring," Mervin said.

"The reason? " Lewis asked in a calm voice, but his eyes were getting colder.

"According to the situation, it should be to prevent Ryzel from getting back his inheritance from his parents."

General Carl Hanes, Ryzel's father, was a very good general.

Lewis once worked under General Hanes, and he learned a lot from him.

Unfortunately, General Hanes, like other military officers, died in battle.

"When did Colonel Dwight cancel their marriage? " Lewis asked.

"They broke up a month ago."

"That's strange; why did they broke up a month ago? "

If they wanted the inheritance from Ryzel, it would be better to break off their marriage agreement just before the day itself.

It would make Ryzel unable to do anything. Why would they give Ryzel a few more days?

"I'm also curious about it, so I asked Luke.

It should be because of Luke's younger brother.

He almost caused a scene in the restaurant by questioning Dwight's relationship with Ryzel's cousin.

Ryzel's cousin seemed to care about his reputation very much and didn't want to be labeled as a third party.

That's why Dwight canceled his marriage with Ryzel and became officially engaged to Ryzel's cousin.

They even have a high-sounding defense for their engagement.

Their degree of compatibility is very high. That's why most of the people agreed that they should indeed get married. "Mervin said it in a disapproving tone. 

Lewis knew that even with the free marriage that is followed nowadays. For a sentinel and guide with a rare high degree of compatibility, they would most likely be more welcome if they married each other.

Dwight and Ryzel's cousin did find a legitimate cause to call off a planned wedding. It will not have a negative impact on their reputation.

"Then, did Ryzel find another sentinel? " Lewis asked while unknowingly clenching his fist.

He knew that in Ryzel's situation, he urgently needed to find a partner because if he didn't, he would be punished by federal law.

He would be assigned to one of the fringe stars that is always having a battle with the Zergs for ten (10) years. But a part of him still wanted to be selfish. 

"Ryzel is an extremely beautiful guide. Of course, a lot of sentinels wanted to marry him. What do you think? Did he already find another sentinel or not? Guess..." Mervin said in a teasing tone.

"If you don't want to say it, just call Luke here. You can go out and train for a few more days. I think your training intensity isn't enough," Lewis said in a cold tone.

He knew that Mervin just wanted to know more information from him, so he kept his teasing tone and left out the news he wanted to know the most to stimulate him.

"Don't! Okay, I'll tell you. Don't give me that cold stare. I even found this news for you! " Mervin said immediately. He obviously doesn't want to add more training time. 

"So?"

"The answer is actually very surprising. Ryzel indeed looked for high-level sentinels."

As soon as Lewis heard that Ryzel looked for high-level sentinels, he couldn't help but tighten his clenched fist.

"Then?"

"At first, Ryzel went to have a matching test with all the high-level sentinels at the academy who still aren't in a relationship and are willing to participate in the matching tests. 

He is really popular because, as soon as Luke's brother made a link for a sign-up event, all the high-level sentinels signed up for it.

Unfortunately, Ryzel didn't find a match, even though there were two hundred and fifty-six high-level sentinels as participants.

He really set a new record.

He also did match tests with other high-level sentinels out of the school, but he still couldn't find a high-level sentinel with at least a matching rate of thirty percent (30%).

He even asked Luke for help. He asked Luke to introduce him to his colleagues, and those who wanted to try a matching test should go and see him. 

If it weren't for the confidentiality of the mission, Luke would have replied.

So far, I knew that a lot of people in our army wanted to try a matching test with Ryzel.

Unfortunately, we can't arrive on time before Ryzel's birthday."

"You mean, until now, he still doesn't have a partner? "

"Yes, of course, he still can't find a partner. 

Ryzel should have a really high level as a guide. 

Do you want to recruit him into the army?" Mervin asked. 

Hearing the confirmation that Ryzel still hadn't found a partner, he didn't care about what Mervin said next.

"When will we be able to reach the capital star?"

"We are still far away from the jumping point going to the capital. We can arrive in the capital in ten (10) days," Mervin replied while looking at the data of their flight on his light brain.

"Let them speed up. We need to arrive at the Capital Star within five days," Lewis ordered.

"What! We are going to use a lot of energy if we do that. We only have a few to spare! "

"Then use them all, if it's not enough, just use the energy stones reserved for my mech," Lewis added. 

"Hey, Lewis, what are you even doing? "

"Lieutenant General Mervin, the order was just given," Lewis said, staring straight at Mervin.

"Yes, General Lewis, I will follow your orders." Mervin saluted and went out.
