Chapitre 79: Pitching to the Army Part 2

The afternoon sun hung high over the proving grounds, casting sharp shadows across the vast open field. Rows of officers, soldiers, and a few invited officials from the Army Board stood behind a cordoned-off area, their eyes trained on the setup ahead. The stage was set for Matthew Hesh's demonstration to determine whether his groundbreaking designs would earn the favor of the military elite.

Matthew stood at the edge of the proving grounds, his hands behind his back, exuding calm confidence. Beside him, Robert Anders reviewed a checklist on his clipboard, ensuring every detail was accounted for. Behind them, soldiers busily prepared the weapons and targets for the live demonstration.

General Nathaniel Warner arrived, accompanied by several high-ranking generals and influential figures from the United Army. Their crisp uniforms and serious expressions underscored the gravity of the event. Warner approached Matthew, giving a firm nod.
