Episode 342

I was thrilled that the mercenaries would betray or start attacking the royal capital without permission, but I was relieved to die because there was no sign of that.

Reports from Monza, who monitors Captain Zachar, have reportedly assassinated Viracoya's messengers while exchanging letters with someone.

However, the text is unknown.

But perhaps the Lord of the letter is not the preferred person for coastal princes.

It is clear that Zakar is a potential threat.

Former mercenary Wadd laughs happily after hearing Monza's report.

"Employers have a trump card called" fired, "but mercenaries have a trump card," Betrayal. Well, it's not limited to mercenaries. "

"Viracoya pays the contract, but it's terrible."

"It's a mercenary, but if you think you're an easily betrayed mercenary, you're going to lose your job.

It's a credit business.

"So Captain Zakar would say," There is something I want to gain even if I give up my credit as a mercenary. "

"Yes, but I don't know."

Grandfather Wadd smiled and shrugged.

"Deputy, I'm back."

Two squad members of the Hammam corps who came to use return from Viracoya, the Duke of Baza.

I sent the letter before I sent Monza's squad to Zachar's watch, so that hasn't yet reached Viracoya.

But the reply to my letter was the same as my judgment.

"It's dangerous for them to turn over, so don't be afraid now. The necessary evidence has been gathered and the opinions of the coastal princes have been largely summarized. '

Apparently, Viracoya intends to use mercenaries only, and then decide to dispose of it slowly.

I do not sympathize with the mercenaries who are doing their own thing, as they are totally bad.

I documented the information I gathered and gave it to Hammam.

"I'm just back and bad, give it to Viracoya soon."

"I understand, Lieutenant"

With just a glass of cold well water, they left for Bazza again.

I wish I had a phone call or email.

The ruin of Captain Zakar was confirmed. Coastal princes are moving to dispose of Zakar.

When the mission is over and you return to Bazza, you are probably waiting for a hearing or fire. Imprisonment and execution are possible.

The problem, however, is that Captain Zakar will be anticipating this too.

He's gone away, even if he's done well enough to do his duties.

After all, they are pursuing "something" that matches the risk.

maybe.

Don't smell terribly dangerous.

When thinking about such a thing in the temporary dining room, Monza was sitting next to her.

"I'm tired. Ah, this is my dinner, right?

Monza has a happy face and cheeks a stir-fried chicken with spices.

I didn't have time to stop, but that was my dinner.

Apparently, Monza took over the surveillance duties to the squad and returned for a break. By the way, it's already sunset.

"Are there any movements?"

"No ..."

Monza nods like a little boring.

"Zakal trains mercenaries in the morning, reads and trains in the afternoon, and drinks and drinks with mercenaries at night, but sometimes he trains in night fights."

Surprisingly decent.

"And, at midnight, I'm going to have a beautiful woman samurai."

"What is it?"

Monza smiled.

"Your opponent is two mistresses of Duke Calfar, but this is ..."

"No, I don't care."

I control Monza's expression of chicken as something.

"Kalfal should have a wife, but according to the laws of Kuwait it's legal that nobles who are entrusted to the city can have up to two concubines. If anyone steals a concubine, it's a felony."

"Oh, will you kill Zakar?"

Monza is muffled with spices around her mouth.

I shook my head, handing her a napkin.

"Unfortunately, it doesn't apply during the war, because it's a property."

"Wow, terrible."

"It's terrible, but it's a law here, and he still has the job of destroying the Royal Guard. I don't know if he'll do it."

The same goes for killing Zakar and the cadres if the underlings attack the coastal princes.

"The coastal princes have no other army commander, even the elite Belousa Army Corps, because he's just a warship army member."

"Then, shouldn't the captain take command?"

"Don't say ridiculously, it's hard to command thousands of living humans."

Monza laughs when I get tired.

"Humans are slow and can't howl."

"Well."

The werewolf can move at high speed ignoring gradients and obstacles, and can perform two-way real-time communication by howling.

It's very similar to fighting with a simple chat with MMO, so it's very easy to command.

They get their own food such as deer and bears, and they don't complain even if the bed is bad.

But humans are different.

Armed humans are slow to move due to the weight of the armor, and the noise and helmet make it difficult to hear both the trumpet and the drum.

You have to give instructions to the soldiers, taking into account the range and time difference of the order, and the messengers rely on the reports from the soldiers.

When attacking a slope, the speed and stamina of the soldier had to be considered.

And logistics. This is terribly difficult. If you think you're going to lead thousands of people through unknown lands, you'll see how difficult it is. Moreover, it is attacked by enemies.

The more people you command, the more things you have to think about.

"If I command humans, the hundreds would be the limit."

Less than three high school classes. If you just let experienced professional soldiers do the usual operations, you'll probably get some control.

"I want only the commanding ability of Captain Zakar ..."

When I was muttering such a miserable thing, Monza shook his ears.

"It smells Kummerk. She has a woman."

"Oh, really."

After a while, Deputy Secretary Kummerk of Baza Mercenary arrived.

There are three women behind during this time.

Today, all three were dressed up in Kuwait ethnic costumes, standing upright and quietly holding back.

After all, I'm a noble maid, so my etiquette is more solid than me.

"Sir Weid, I'm sorry for the evening."

"Welcome Kummerk, please come inside."

I greet him with a smile. Kumerk was smiling, but he knew he was nervous.

He bows to Monza, then turns to me.

"I'm very sorry the other day. I don't know much about the customs of Milardia, so Captain Zakar is afraid that he may have been offended."

That's a lie, isn't it?

But I know it's a concern for me, so I nod with a smile.

Deputy Secretary Kummerk continued his talk, wiping the sweat off his forehead.

"It's strange to say an apology, can you use them as a caretaker for Lord Weid?"

Can I be a little mean? Good.

I'll show you a little thought.

"Although it's the caretaker, then we have to keep them safe. We have little army and it's a bit difficult."

Soon Kumerk was in a hurry.

"So, why don't you stay in Karfal when you're on the march and get your paperwork done?-Everyone is proficient in reading and writing in Kuwait."

Desperate.

But that's not a bad idea.

A literate and reasonably reliable local is a great deal to Milardia's army.

Captain Zakar may have sent it as a spy, but it does not pass to the werewolf opponent.

We are the one who overwhelms only humans.

Because he specializes in eating humans.

I'm struggling now because I stopped eating humans ...

When I was thinking about that, Kumerk looked anxious.

"Um, how are you?"

You're returning to the merchant's face, not a mercenary, Kummerk.

I nodded lightly and smiled.

"It's an offer, I won't refuse to refuse. It's not a bad story, and there may be a position in Kummerk."

Immediately, Kumerk has a blatantly relieved face.

"Thank you.

"in addition?"

Kummerk was relieved as he wiped his forehead.

"I would be reassured that Veit would take care of them, because I was without asylum."

I ran away from Calfar.

Kumerk is just a commoner, with no financial power or status to feed the maids.

Although bad to say, mercenaries have a very low social status and are treated like criminal reserves. Mercenary managers are no big deal.

The servants of the senior aristocracy have a very high rank in the commoners. Because culture and personal connections are orders of magnitude. When they start doing business after retirement, their peers in the area are said to shake.

Because of this relationship, when mercenaries occupy the city and treat the noble maids as loot, everyone frowns.

So I grin grin.

"I don't seem to remember Kummerk's feeling when he was at home."

"It's often said that you have to be a mercenary."

He was really decent even if we talked, so I wish he had just joined the Guard. Why the mercenary?

I bitterly tickle his self-esteem while smiling.

"Why is Zachar so important to you too?"

Then Kummerk shone with his expression.

"That's right! I'm Captain Zakar who turned me, who was a mercenary friend who was treated as an" unusable guy ", as a deputy!

Oh yeah, did you react there?

I'm a loyal ...
