Reincarnation Monarch

Lesson 49 Each Thoughts

"But Colin, we're not good enough alone."

Edberg whispered to Colin beside him with great anxiety.

"Oh, of course you two can't do it alone. We need to get more people..."

Colin was concentrating on a counter-attack move at the rear of a row to the Lug Forest, which he thought would be most suitable for burial in the nearest field, in order to secretly mourn the remains of General Gorkos.

"Who are you going to keep company of?

Naturally, he's a man of arms.

"You mean... Gantz?

"Oh, the power of his battle axe is tremendous. If it's just offensive, it's probably the same as the captain, or more."

"Right, but Guntz guy, will you fulfill and follow this side?

"You'll be fine. I'll take the next vice president's seat and he'll ride."

"Make Gantz your deputy chief?

"Oh. Edberg, you're the next captain. Ganz is the deputy chief."

"Colin, aren't you going to be the deputy chief?

"No, I don't have a vice president. I don't want to be left alone."

"Colin......"

"Never mind, Edberg. If I'm right about the injustice, that's fine."

"Well, I get it, Colin. Well, I don't think Guntz's guy will have a vice president, but if he does tease the vice president's seat, he'll come aboard. Being a deputy chief pays you differently. A Gantz guy who likes women and walks around and is out of money all the time, he won't stop coming on board."

Edberg nodded again and again with a convincing look when he said so.

Earlier, Edberg made it look like he was on board with a serious and Colin story about forgiving injustice, but the truth is it wasn't, and Edberg was the one who was drawn to the captain's salary.

Because Edberg had a family.

There was a warm family with a full couple and a constant smile.

But maybe it was a little too round.

When did I realise that I had as many as seven children, and even in the belly of my beloved wife, there was now just another sprout of new life.

Though SS members are somewhat more privileged than other squadrons in this, life is painful with the salaries of the peacekeepers.

But if you are captain, your salary will double.

I will be able to live a life of sufficient relaxation.

This was the real reason Edberg joins the rebellion.

"Who else are you going to draw to your side? Colin."

"Oh yeah... it would still be that brother..."

Then Edberg bounced up all reflexively, stuck to Colin.

"Hey! Wait a minute, Colin! I don't suppose that brother meant the Bacchus brothers!

"Hey Edberg, there's no other brothers in the squad. So when it comes to the brothers, of course it's about the Bacchus brothers."

"Colin. Hey, it's Colin. No Bacchus brothers. They don't know what they're thinking."

"No, I can tell. They just want to know what's going on."

"How are we doing?

"Oh, the Bacchus brothers are mercenaries hired directly by General Gorkos. Of course, I was only hired for money, so there's no such thing as loyalty. I was just escorting him at work. But they, like us, failed to escort. And at the same time, I lost my employer. So now they're floating in the universe."

"So... what the hell?

"You just have to hire us. That brother is looking for an employer right now. Of course, we can't give a lot of money like the general was paying us, but don't they just tread that it's better to be a little bit more money than work? I think I can fully employ a few days of accommodation, food and beverage, and a little bit of money to add color to my forehead when I go to my next office."

"But those guys... they're freaks, aren't they?

"I know."

"Do you really understand? They have gladly killed many, albeit on the orders of Gorkos. Right in front of us. You've seen their trance-like faces many times. They are real pleasure killers. Just like Gorkos."

"But arms stand. It's horrible if you turn to your enemies, and no one is more comfortable with you on your side. Besides, I think it's because he's such a pleasure killer."

"What do you mean?

"They were quiet and defenceless when they murdered the general, but they couldn't help but kill people in the first place. Even if it was a small sum, I'd be happy to give him a reason to kill me."

"True, that may be... I still disagree"

"Edberg, please don't push me. Now it's time for one of us to be on our side. Not to mention the guy with the arm."

"But you tell them to bow their heads and be on their side? I don't like it, Colin."

"I'll do that. Edberg just needs to convince Gantz to do that."

"... ok. So what about the others?

"We'll be in the Lug Forest soon enough. There won't be time to be persuaded individually. So far, there are definitely five likely enemies: Captain Ars and his hipster Getz deputy, Valentin, for a total of five Lotos of Anville. This is the two of us and the Bacchus brothers, and if we can get Ganz on our side, we'll be five to five. The rest of us are just swallowed by the air in the first place, so I think we'll see how it goes without being part of either."

"Well, maybe that's what it is. Then Colin, I'll fight that nasty Getz lieutenant! As you know, I can't stand him alone. You always hide behind the captain's back. It's for the guy who just became vice president with his old lady!

"Oh, I thought you would. The deputy director leaves it to Edberg. And Anvil's Lotus is a monster. Gantz of strength would be good as well. Let's hit the two Valentins with the Bacchus brothers."

"So, Colin, you're fighting the captain, right?

"Oh, Captain, I'll fight. I originally thought he was an opportunist, but I think this case is just dishonest. How dare you decide that there was no assassination at all?"

"Well, sure."

"Look, Edberg. I will definitely expose this case to the daylight and make it look right!

Colin shook his mouth so strongly that he threw a gaze of blame on Captain Ars, who would never move forward.

But Edberg laughed slightly at Colin for his calculations when he became captain.
