Black Haired King

"You're finally here."

"Yeah, two days behind schedule."

Five days after being attacked by a herd of harpies. We have reached the new Arnold realm. Since the day the herd of harpies attacked us, we have been attacked again several times, so we arrived later than planned.

Harpy was harpy and cumbersome, but so was the Warcraft, who was invited by the smell of blood flowing from Harpy's body.

If Harpy's body was burned, it would be over, but she couldn't take it perfectly until she returned the blood on the soldier's gear. For this reason, several warcraft attacks followed the smell of blood smelling from soldiers' gear. That's why he arrived later than planned because he had defeated him.

When our carriage approaches the gate, the gateman opens the gate. And beyond the gate were Grimd and Christian waiting. Speaking of which, I had already taken over, so I let him go with Grimd. I forgot.

The carriage stops when it gets to the front of the Grimds. Soldiers opened the carriage door for me, so I got off.

"Salute, everyone!

Soldiers who correct their posture to the decree of Grimd. I hope I don't have to go this far. Well, I wouldn't be surprised if you'd gotten a letter from Grimd beforehand. I can't believe you showed the people how trained soldiers are.

"Thank you. Is there a problem?

"Yes, well, there's a lot going on, but that's plenty in the mansion. From now on, we'll have a parade to help you remember the Lord's face... don't look so nasty."

I accidentally glanced at Christian's words. What the hell, a parade?

Blanca is ready, Count.

Grimd, you too... I have no choice. I ride on Blanca's back as the Grimds say and walk around the city.

They say this is all about getting the people to know my face, the lord. The inhabitants will all look at my head. Well, there's never been a dark-haired guy noble before.

The parade to get my face remembered lasted until I walked around the city. It wasn't until two hours after I got to this city that I put him in my new mansion.

◇ ◇ ◇

"Ahhh, I'm tired"

"Phew, thank you, Redius. But this is also an important job as a lord."

"I know, Victoria. I just can't stop thinking about it."

"Well, I know how that feels. I also did many parades when I was a princess. Don't stop laughing no matter how tired you are. That's all I was desperate to protect."

Right. Patricia must be struggling more than me.

"Ladyus, it's time for me to go back."

Talking to Victoria and Patricia, a master comes from behind. I just arrived. Are you leaving now? I wish I could go a little slower. I thought so, but I guess the master will be home early for us. I really can't get my head up on this guy.

"Thank you for two weeks. Thanks to my master, I was able to make a comfortable journey."

"It's not my fault. Then the next time I see you is when you bring the kids."

"Yes, thank you!

I bow my head deeply to my master. The master returned with a metastasis with a flickering wave of his hand.

Then, after we had lunch, we were gathered in the conference room of this mansion. To discuss the issues we heard when we arrived.

It was me, Victoria, Patricia, Grimd, Christian, and then the Owl Beast Man, Phalema, who will be deputy captain of the new Troop Beast Man unit. The captain will of course be Patricia.

"First, the number one problem would be the scars of war. Sometimes the Great Plains are close and dangerous, but the city seems to have many orphans. Besides, the slave traders who catch and sell the orphan, and those who use the orphan to work evil, never stop."

"What happened to the deputies before the Grimds were sent? His Majesty ordered us to protect the orphans."

His Majesty had already given such an order in anticipation of more orphans in the war. If protection was impossible, I would have handed the city's orphanages and churches the funds to help.

"The deputies before we came were similarly sucking sweet honey. Bribe me. We've already captured him and put him in the dungeon."

"... ok. We have to do something about those orphans. Anything else?

"It's still an adventurer's guild. Read this."

Grimd takes the letter out of his nostalgia and gives it to me. I take the letter and read it... are you kidding me? You accidentally crushed it.

"Redius, what was written?

"... Patricia, don't be offended. The Adventurer Guild does not recognize the Beast Man as a human being. Crusade as a warcraft as soon as you find it, it said. I'm really kidding. Few people even wanted to be them."

During the war, for a little while, but there was a time when I was with the Beasts, so that's when I heard that the majority of them who entered the Beast Troop were those who were in trouble for money. Someone in the family was sick, in debt, for many reasons, but few of them were moving on from themselves.

Even Patricia does. Even she didn't like it and become a beast man. Now I'm normal, but I know I've been struggling until I get used to it.

Don't even know that. I don't know what to say.

"Okay. I'm heading to the Adventurer Guild tomorrow. Patricia, you may feel a little bad, but will you follow me tomorrow?

"Now it is. Of course I'll follow you."

Patricia answers my words with a smile. Ha, come on. You got a pile of problems early.
