Arriving at his office at the Reichskreigministrum, Jaune could see the Obergruppenfuher sitting down on a chair right next to his table. He appeared to be a pale gray-haired man in his late fortes with his body proportion seemingly fairly healthy. Wearing a gray, polished general SS uniform with many medals on his left, specifically one that stood above the rest which was the German Cross while on his neck held the well-known Iron Cross.
"Ah! Gruppenfuher Jaune Arc, Just the man I've been looking for!" Muller happily shouted while standing up from his seat, opening his arms towards him but not before doing the standard sieg heil salute in which Jaune responded by doing the same along with Sofia. He then sat back down on his seat while Jaune was moving to chair.
"Obergruppenfuher Muller! A surprise to see you here. I thought you would be in Atlas!" He said in surprise while the general just laughed in response. Muller just relaxingly laid back on his chair with both of his hands crossed, "Well... I just decided to drop in by surprise." He happily said with a visible, comforting smile on his face.
"I see, what is your reason for coming here?" Jaune curiously asked the general with both of his hands crossed together, holding his chin while the Obergruppenfuher just continued to look towards him with a misleading smug on his face. The general then sat properly and leaned closer towards Jaune, preparing to speak.
"I am to be meeting with an emissary from the Japanese Empire in Asahi Nippon. Specifically, Southern Vale. I guess you can say, they have a key interest with this world." Muller slowly said with a tone of amusement. Keeping that same misleading smug on his face while happily looking at Jaune. He sat back on his chair and continued to smile towards the general while his hands were placed on the top of his legs. Oberfuher Sofia could only look at the two men with a sense of awe and shock as she could tell from their interaction, they have met before and seemed to have a history between each other.
"And you want me to escort you through the neutral zone, then into Asahi Nippon?" Jaune carefully asked while slowly raising an eyebrow towards the general. The general approvingly looked at him while clapping his hand and happily laughing towards his question. He then responded.
"Yes, That's exactly it!" Muller happily and loudly spoke after finishing his clap, then went back to his relaxed position, leaning at the chair he was sitting on. Jaune simply continued to smile towards the general while preparing to ask him another question, placing his left leg above his right with both of his hands crossed.
"When are we leaving, and why me of all people?" He curiously asked with a respectful tone that could be easily heard by anyone in the room. The general simply responded back with a smile before indulging Jaune's curiosity by answering his question.
"Well you are one of the finest SS officers that I know, and it's easier to be in contact with you rather than just find another officer I barely know." Muller slowly spoke in a deep voice. Leaning forward towards his desk with his arms placed on top while his hands were crossed and held his chin.
"I see." Jaune quietly said in a toned down voice. His head now looking down towards the table with his eyes focused at the top of the table. The general quickly stood up from his seat in excitement while wearing his hat. He looked towards Jaune and said.
"We leave at three-o-clock in the afternoon, it's going to be a small trip so it won't be long, but I can't say the same for the meeting. Meet me at the border." Happily, said the general before leaving the room, leaving a speechless, quiet Jaune at the office. As he left the office, Oberfuher Sofia immediately stood up from her desk, and quickly sat on the chair that Muller just sat on, prepared to ask him a question.
"Who was that sir?" She asked with her eyes completely fixated towards Jaune as he raised his head towards her. Her hands were clenched and raised up in the air as she continued to look at him, like a playful puppy in awe.
"That man was Obergruppenfuher Adal Muller. Our history together was not a common one between old friends as others may think. He was once my chief in command before I was moved to another regiment at my time in Atlas." Carefully said Jaune as he finished his sentence, seeing his assistant amazed with his history. She continued to listen on towards Jaune's voice as he went on about the general.
"We did a few missions together there. Nothing much noteworthy in all honesty." He spoke in a calm manner as Sofia was hesitant to hear more of his past. She wondered if he would say more as she stood there in insatiable curiosity, but later felt disappointed as raised his palm and said.
"I'll explain more on the way. In the meantime, we have an old friend to visit." He devilishly said as he stood up from his chair and began to walk towards the exit with his assistant following suite. Passing by the various SS officers who were busy stuck to their desks answering phone calls, arranging papers on their desk or writing on them. Some awaited for something to do as they sit in boredom on their desks with some talking towards one another. They approached the elevator and went inside, pressing a button that led to the basement floor where archives of files containing history, state of economics, profiles on certain wanted people, etc would be kept. But it also kept certain captured individuals who were considered a threat to the Reich, and held them for investigation. Arriving at the floor, Jaune could not help but start to show a sadistic smile on his face as he began to enter the basement.
AN: Sorry if I haven't updated in a while, I've been very busy with school and currently preparing for exams. I know this is not much, but I will put more stuff on the next chapter once I'm done with my final exams.
Guest: As I said before on my previous chapters, he's not a brainless fanatic that would immediately kill a faunus without thinking.
Mastermind: Glad to see that you're hooked on the fic :^)
Guest: Yep, that's pretty much true on why Ozpin would be all hermit. But for Salem… now that's something I can't tell yet.
-Your-Girl: Well the travel between universes is based on the rules of The Man in The High Castle series. If you haven't seen how the travel works yet in the show, you'd be surprised for what awaits. Also nice username by the way lol.
Fizz: You could say that.
And that's all for the author's note.
