My name is Reiner Aiden.
Yes, my parents are crazy supporters of Marshal Reiner Hart. I’m 28 years old and was born in the year of Marshal Reiner Hart’s sacrifice, so in its entirety, there were at least a dozen Reiners at the same level in my school.
My parents chose this name for me, naturally hoping that I would become a great person like Marshal Hart. However, my idol is Marshal.
Xiu Yi Te Reese, the youngest marshal in the history of the Human Alliance. Unlike Marshal Hart, Marshal Xiu Yi Te was a controversial figure. After he took over the position of Marshal, he quickly seized his rights by means of iron and blood, greatly weakening the forces of the various Legions, and held the entire military firmly in his hands. The unwilling army leaders launched a rebellion, but were suppressed by Marshal Xiu Yi Te with absolute strength. 1
Regarding his actions, public opinion was mixed.
The side that praised him thinks that he has cleaned up the murky waters of the military. After that, the whole army from top to bottom wholeheartedly fought and quickly expelled the Zerg to the remote galaxies that were not suitable for human habitation, and the Zerg lacking resources, even if they managed to produce another queen can no longer pose a threat to humanity.
Those that oppose him believe that he is too arbitrary and used his rights to win people over, and the entire military has completely become his.
However, these controversies do not affect Marshal Xiu Yi Te as he is the most eligible bachelor in the whole Alliance yet no one dared approach him. Yes, Marshal Xiu Yi Te is still single, and there has never been any scandal. Young and handsome, with a high degree of authority and independence, it is not a strange thing that Alpha was the dream lover of all Omega and even Beta.
My family has another crazy admirer of Marshal Xiu Yi Te, my younger brother. An Omega, my younger brother was adored at home; I have never dared to violate any of his requests. On the first day Xiu Yi Te become a Marshal, my younger brother asked me to record every move about him. So, here is this marshal observation diary.

I reported to the Marshal’s house on the first day today, so nervous. When the captain of the guard heard my name, his expression was a bit complicated. Does he not like Marshal Hart? It shouldn’t be, he was a charismatic person.
When I saw Marshal Xiu Yi Te, his formidable imposing manner was several times stronger than in a holographic projection. At that moment, I didn’t even dare to breathe.
Marshal Xiu Yi Te is just as rumored, serious in speech and manner with stern looks. Just when I reported my name, his look seemed to ease for a moment. After a while, I heard him say: “You have a good name.”
So excited! Among the several recently recruited guards, Marshal Xiu Yi Te spoke a few words with only me. Maybe it was due to my name? It is said that the two marshals were good friends.

My younger brother, the idiot, actually wanted me to open a backdoor to infiltrate the Marshal’s house. My mother also asked for help. It was really noisy. If he saw the attitude of Marshal Xiu Yi Te towards sticky Omegas, he would never dare to have such stupid thoughts.
Today, when the Marshal was training, I found a very strange thing. The Marshal’s neck seemed to have two nameplates hanging from it. Nameplates were bound to genes. Isn’t there only one piece for each soldier? Whose was the other nameplate? Unfortunately, the nameplate just fell out of the Marshal’s collar, when he immediately pinned it back, so I failed to see the name above.
In addition, the Marshal is really strong, a pair of pro-guards has been beaten, must have hurt.

Today, someone with decent looks came to the Marshal, wearing the Research Institute’s white coat, and directly barged into the Marshal’s office.The Marshal didn’t allow anyone to disturb him while he was working. I waited for the man to be thrown out by the Marshal, but after a few minutes, I actually received an order to make tea.
To be honest, I was really shocked. Even though I’ve been the Marshal’s personal guard for a long time, it’s the first time I’ve seen the Marshal look like this. How do you say it, there was some gentleness mixed with nostalgia. Unfortunately, I couldn’t see what had made the Marshal show such an expression. I only saw a photo album.
When I was in the class, I asked one of the older team members whether that man was the lover of the Marshal. The Marshal treated him so well. The other person looked at me as if I was an idiot, only to say that he was the family of the Marshal’s sweetheart.
The Marshal actually has a sweetheart; this is really big news! However, as a qualified guard, I will never disclose this news.

The Marshal did not like the classic song, “Escape from the Blue Star”.
At today’s banquet, a famous pianist played the first “Escape from the Blue Star” and said it was for the Marshal. As a result, the Marshal was furious and had the pianist thrown out of the Marshal House.

The Marshal House has a room that everyone was forbidden from entering. The Marshal is a workaholic, and his daily schedule is always full, but no matter how busy he is, the Marshal will always stay in that room for a while.
Today, I didn’t mean to pass by. I saw the Marshal in the room, and the door wasn’t closed. There seemed to be a piano inside, and the sound of the piano could also be faintly heard. It seemed to be “Escape from the Blue Star”. It’s strange that while the Marshal doesn’t hate this song very much, he hated when anyone else played it in front of him.
But I didn’t dare to look for long. The previous person discovered spying on the room was kicked out of the guards. I don’t want to affect my future just for the sake of my curiosity.

There was a big incident today, with residual Zergs appearing in the territory of the Human Alliance through a new wormhole. In fact, it wasn’t a big deal. The Zerg is only a low-level Zerg, and an ordinary mech unit could deal with it. The wormhole is just an asteroid belt with no resident stars. But the Marshal actually rushed over, driving the legendary mech.

I’m in a complicated mood now.
Today the Marshal met with a mercenary squad, and the squad sent the Marshal something. I was there at the time.
It was a tattered mech with a big hole ripped right through the cockpit. It could be seen from the traces that it was forcibly pulled apart by Zerg, and the driver’s experiences could be imagined.
The Zerg eat everything.
“Mech Encyclopedia” is a compulsory course for every military school student. How could I not recognize this mech?
Morning Light.
Owner, Reiner Hart.
The expression on the face of the Marshal, I can’t even bear to think about it. That excruciating agony, I could feel it even from a few meters away. After that, the Marshal waved his hand and everyone left.
At the moment I closed the door, I seemed to hear the voice of the Marshal.
“Reiner.”
I suddenly knew the identity of the lover of the Marshal mentioned by the senior.
With this, the diary is sealed up.
