Chapter 14: 14 CHAPTER XIV -- TWO CHOICES

"Lasse, you're a target now!

I'm sure you'll be happy to know that you're not the only one who has been looking for it," said Lasse's former colleague, Merc.

He looks like a normal man, but he has an callus on his hand. It's probably a combat-trained man.

So judges the hand of the man whom Melk has captured.

They had come to the shadow of the hill where the demons were playing, to hide their captor from the eyes of the carpenters.

"Aren't you farmers and adventurers?

No, this muscle tone is not peasant. It's possible he's an adventurer, but his equipment is wrong. It's an assassination racket.

Then Merck pulled out of the man's clothes a blackened dagger and a bottle of a weird colored liquid.

It's a poison pill. The knife is also blackened at the expense of its sharpness to reflect light. The fact that it was wandering around your ranch means that the townspeople and merchants are not its target.

The air is tense at the mention of poison.

"Lasse!　You should still go back to the military!　If we don't do this, we don't know when we're going to get back on track!

Letty tried to persuade Lasse to turn blue in the face.

The look of desperation was hard to believe only because he was a former colleague.

...... I can't decide right now. I've got ties and things I need to do, too.

"This is not the time to talk about it!　A man's life is in danger!

Letty bites down, but Lasse doesn't even lower his head to look at it.

"Letty, don't get too crazy. Lasse needs time to think.

"But!

"I want to bring Lasse back with me. But don't be in a hurry.

"...... Okay.

Letty is still reluctant, but she regains her composure after Merck's persuasion.

"Okay, Lasse, we'll take this guy back to town. We'll be staying at an inn in town for the time being, so feel free to come over if you change your mind. Of course we'll come to you.

"I'll definitely come to you every day to convince you!

After Letty made a strong statement, they left for the town.

Lasse and the demons are left behind.

What are we going to do, Master Lasse?

Lamia looks at Lasse with a worried look on her face.

She and her squires distrust the army that drove Lasse out.

Some of the demons are even hostile to them.

Oh, I see. We're not going back for now.

The demons are relieved to hear Lasse's words.

"But where did that man come from?

Lasse blurts out a question.

"Isn't it still our neighbor Serga that was fighting with us?

Lasse nodded at Lamia's words.

'It's a normal thing to do.

But he didn't seem to be convinced by that answer.

"What's on your mind?

No, I was just wondering if they really want me back.

I don't know much about human warfare, but I do understand the military's desire to keep the means of fighting the war to a preponderant degree.

Although Lamia was a demon, he was intelligent and flexible enough to understand people's thoughts because he was a half-human, half-beast demon, similar to a man.

''If only humans could act on reason alone, then so be it.

(And there are a few other things that bother me, too.

Lise had a secret thought, but she didn't dare to say it, so as not to worry Lamia and the others.

It's not that Lamia doesn't notice, but the demons around her were glancing at her.

Well, I'm not going back. Business in this town is finally starting to pick up!　And you won't be able to return to the army until you've paid for the dragon's saddle!

Hearing the laughter of couscous and demons, Lasse is relieved inwardly.

The battle is over, and now it's foolish to let the demons fight. Or so he thought.

Well, besides, I have a new house built by my masters, and if I return here, I'll have failed to build it!

"Oh, yeah.

The

At night, by the light of a campfire, Lasse was looking at the sky.

The sky was beautiful and cloudless.

And then he heard the cat's meow.

"You're back.

Lasse turned around and saw an adorable cat covered in fluffy fur.

Ketsey, I'm back.

The cat suddenly started to speak, then stood up on two legs and climbed into Lasse's lap.

Yes, this cat was also Lasse's servant, the cat demon Ketsey.

And then?　Did you get any information?

In response to Lasse's question, Ketsey turns around and silently holds out her palm.

......

Lasse unconsciously reached out a finger to Ketsey's palm and pawed at the pawpaw.

"Yeah, yeah, not paw massage ......!　Information fee meow!

Ketsey hooted as she put up her ears and tail!　And make a threatening noise.

"It's a joke,

Then Lasse took the dried meat out of the skin bag.

Always.

Ketsey is a squire, but not like other squires.

He made a contract with Lasse to become a servant by paying him a regular fee for information.

This kind of compensation is not uncommon among servants, but more often than not, demonslayers like Lasse, who follow a large number of demons, tended to do so.

"So you have the information, right?

Lasse asks Ketsey again as she nibbles on a piece of dried meat.

Ketsey looks back at Lasse and responds with one hand raised lightly.

Of course. We've got some great information.

The night of the demon hunter is long .
