Marquis' Express Butler

Lord Kassel, who was on a garrison defense mission, answered the call. You don't look so bright when you hear from Debian with the news.

“I thought the meeting was going to be brief, but it's longer than I expected. ”

“I've come up with some brilliant ideas. ”

Thus, Confucius Hamel asked straightaway.

“How far have you heard? ”

“I've heard reports of trying to use the camouflage system. The atmosphere doesn't sound like a joke. ”

In a nutshell, I was able to understand how Lord Kassel felt about Chris's operation. When he first heard the plan, he thought it was a joke.

Confucius Hamel shrugs his shoulders.

“Do you think you have a better plan? ”

“There is no better plan, but there is a safe one. It's about getting together and escorting Forestin without dispersing the power. It's a very simple, straightforward operation. ”

Lord Cashel, who was graciously hastened, pointed to the area of Forestin with his command rod.

“I had anticipated that the enemy would be attacked in Forestin. But at this point, it's dangerous to suddenly change operations. Moreover, if you disperse the power, the enemy may suspect and draw the troops to one side. If it does, it will reduce the damage to the camp, but the damage to the squad will be irreversible. ”

His weightless voice seems to add to his credibility. I could have been persuaded. But Chris didn't back down.

“I don't think so. Rather, being all in one place will do more damage. We're mounted cavalry-driven horseshoes. We have to go through forests. If everyone falls into a trap at a moment, you can see irreversible damage. ”

“Who are you? ”

“My name is Chris, Lord Dylan's chief of staff. ”

“Chief, I don't think you're up for it. ”

The baron's chief of staff is disgraceful. The majesty of the Blue Dragon Knights is that great. But being ignored by Chris is like being ignored by me.

So I said a few words with a sorry expression.

“Sir Kassel. He's also a big player in the design of the operation. I want you to listen to me. Above all, he is Su-hyung's business partner. He's connected to the Duke. ”

“Hmm……. ”

Cashel takes a step back, looking back at Chris for a moment. He nods willingly and gestures at Chris.

“If you are the Chief of Staff, please elaborate on your plan. ”

“Now that the base and the Starfleet have joined, their target will be narrowed down from three to two. They'll come after you and the girl. The situation is that they will try to kill you without capture you alive. ”

Chris pulled out two white horses and placed them on their left and right sides of the Forest. And I put a slightly bigger white horse in between.

“This big talk is our example, and what's left and right is our separate group. While the base is under attack, the Starfleet moves quickly to escape Forestin is the goal of this strategy. ”

“Even if you get out first, it's meaningless if you get hit by a devastating blow. ”

“It can't be. ”

“You speak as if you've seen the future. There are dozens and hundreds of tactics going on and on in the battlefield. We're standing in the middle of the battlefield. Don't you think you should think about that, too? ”

Lord Kassel continues his blatant criticism, but Chris continues to speak out without losing his focus.

“Your words are reasonable. But if you reduce that as much as possible and converge on a single operation, it's the role of the chief of staff. ”

“Hmm.”

Lord Kassel narrows his gaze, but he doesn't react well. Chris takes the lead with a nice shot and continues to talk.

“As I explained earlier, their target is not the destruction of our power, but the assassination of the factors. If you give them to the wagons easily, they'll concentrate their attacks on the wagons, whether they blow bolts or fire arrows. and they think they've achieved their goal, and then they just quit. ”

“What's the basis for that? ”

“They're hard to keep alive with their dictatorships hidden in their mouths. Operation succeeded, but there's no way we can do more damage. ”

In the words of a logical Chris, Sir Kassel was struck by thoughts. He glances down at the map and asks.

“Then what are you going to do about the estramorwn's deviation? ”

“We need to keep it to a minimum. Confucius Hamel is skilled in swordsmanship, so it looks like Lord Dylan and Arthurs can accompany me and Miss Eluna and the rest of the squad. ”

“Hmm, how's your riding skills? ”

Chris looked at me and replied as an executive secretary.

“He occasionally rides as a hobby. You won't have any problems riding horses. We just have to get out of Forestin anyway. ”

“Then……. ”

Lord Kazelle claps his hands with a command rod, his jaw twitching and worrying. I think a positive decision will be made. 'Cause he started the lockdown.

A moment later, an unexpected decision came out of his mouth.

“As the man in charge of this escort operation, I cannot authorize that operation. ”

Confucius Hamel and I couldn't manage our expressions. Chris, on the other hand, nodded.

“Please understand, it's too dangerous. In my judgment, we are not at risk enough for such an adventure. We didn't have any damage until we actually got to Barista. ”

“You must have been informed of what happened to the Special Forces. ”

I protested, but the seeds didn't work. Lord Kassel shakes his head firmly.

“Separatists are as susceptible to danger as they are to movement first. Besides, our Blue Dragon Knights weren't with us, so the enemy attacked us easily. They won't be able to attack us easily, as long as we're guarding the base. ”

“If that's what you really think, I can't recommend it anymore. ”

I didn't convince him anymore. Meanwhile, Confucius Hamel shook his hand as if he didn't like it.

“Enough. Enough! Well, I can't help it if that's what Lord Kassel thinks. I have to do something that didn't have a camouflage system. ”

“Of course I do. Making the mission as safe as possible is the foundation of escort. Please believe me. ”

“It's not about trust or disbelief. We just wanted to get to you because there's a better way. Anyway, this is the end of the mission meeting... Dylan. And Chris, can I see you for a second? Everyone else, please leave. ”

Other people have left, except me and Chris. Everyone leaves, but Confucius Hamel looks around to see if there are any left.

Soon, he gets up and walks to a bookshelf full of books.

With a half-protruding book pushed in, the bookshelf starts to move sideways with a click.

It was a secret passageway.

With all the doors open, Confucius Hamel takes the Lantern into his hands.

“Follow me.”

We went to where Confucius Hamel was gesturing.

A small locker room appears. There were tables and chairs in the middle.

After manipulating the lever again, Hamel closes the door and sits in a chair. We've set up around it. And then a secret story began.

“I'm starting to wonder if I gave up the whole operation for nothing. Son of a bitch! How can you be a knight when you're stuck so tight? ”

I suddenly smiled. I didn't want to complain. I wanted to hide it well. As expected, the Duke is a bit overwhelmed.

“But Lord Cashel has no reason to have an adventure. Don't they all have to poison themselves if they get beaten up? ”

“Son of a bitch, are you siding with someone else's family? ”

“That's what I'm saying. Isn't it all for a purpose that the Confucius called us this separately? ”

His eyes lit up when he coughed. Like a beast with its prey in front of it.

“Operation is a covert operation. ”

We nod. Because it was so natural, Confucius Hamel once again looks distasteful.

“Why are the reactions so dull? ”

“I know that's what you're calling me. ”

“I knew I was different. ”

We tried to execute the operation, even if Lord Kassel would disagree.

Chris is silent.

“There's a really big difference between what an operation is and what it doesn't do. We have to deceive our enemies as well as our allies. ”

“I know. In fact, there are some things that the Duke doesn't appreciate. If you sneak it into practice, you'll be less concerned about leaking inside information. ”

“Wise choice. And I thought, somehow, you know, it's easy to walk away. ”

“Because the fuck-up's being modest? ”

“Not exactly. ”

Just after seeing Chris having a rough conversation with Confucius Hamel, the distance between the two of them seemed quite familiar.

“Instead, only Ella does the disguise. I have to stay in school. Impossible to disguise them both. ”

Definitely a realistic alternative. Sapiella can be easily disguised if she covers her face with a muzzle. But Confucius Hamel is different. No one knows his face.

“He's underestimating his opponent's power. Then we are the only ones left to die. ”

“You got it right. So let's get to the bottom of this and get to work. I will escort Miss Sapiella back to her old house. ”

“I hate to say this...... but what is that, my brother? Take good care of her."

Less listening to Confucius Hamel say please. It was a really awkward word.

* * *

After the secret meeting, I immediately returned to Sapiella's home of affection. I feel uncomfortable saying something difficult without even having time to say hello properly.

The door was open, and I lightly knocked and went inside.

Sapiella's expression brightens when she looks back in surprise.

“Sir Dylan. ”

“You've waited long, haven't you? The meeting unexpectedly got longer. ”

“No, I'm fine. ”

“What were you doing? ”

“I was reading for a while. There's not much I can do. No matter how hard I study, I'm useless in situations like this. ”

Sapiella's expression darkens.

I may be frustrated by the woman's body and the position that must be kept. We can swing a sword, but she can't.

There were a few maids around, including Arwen.

I said it politely.

“I was wondering if you could pass it on for a moment. ”

“Stand back, all of you. ”

At His Majesty's command, the servants went out.

There's only two of us left. Just in case, I pulled Mana up and sensed heat, but there was no one there. I approached Sapiella.

Sapiella sighed and put her hands together, making sure she read my face.

“Another dangerous thing happened. ”

“I don't blame you. Lady, I can only tell you this because the situation is so dire. ”

“Tell me. ”

“Do you have a maid for the young lady? as a trustworthy person. ”

“Band……? ”

Sapiella stares at me dazed for a moment. I nod, keeping my mouth shut.
