The room was covered with a fine carpet, and on the walls were expensive metal armor, swords, and shields.
On the opposite wall was a large painting, and various other ornaments adorned the room.
Put them all together, and they would be worth no more than a few dozen gold coins.
That suggests that the owner of the room is a man of high rank.
And then there is a knock at the door, the doorway to the room.
"Enter.
A male voice from behind an upscale desk at the back of the room grants you permission to enter.
"I am here, Baron Merc-Zeit.
Entering the room was Lasse's friend and colleague, Merck.
"Good to see you, incoming Viscount Zeith.
The man called him by the title he would inherit from his father.
He's still a knight, Lord Commander Frieda.
The man called Frida leans back in his chair and stares at the Merc.
"It will be the same for you, since you will inherit it eventually. But I'd rather have you do the job.
"To me?
Frida stands up and walks in front of the Merc.
"Gen. Maldo has offered his Majesty the return of the Lasse-Tamer.
Frida emphasizes the original part.
"The Lasse?
"The Lasse-Tamer demon is a check on other nations. He said he was crazy to throw them out.
Frida speaks of that time in an evasive manner.
(Well, it's actually insane.)
At this, Merck agreed with General Maldo.
The general in front of him had never experienced real warfare.
He was the son of a powerful nobleman and had spent time in King's Landing as a member of the King's Landing Knights without ever experiencing a real battle.
The Royal Capital Knights are literally the last bastion to defend the capital.
It should have been an important job for the country's best forces.
But the capital was the last place to be attacked in war.
The truly talented ones are called to the front lines.
As a result, the King's Landing Knights were ridiculed as an incompetent knightly order where only those who clung to their self-protective and nominal positions would be appointed.
That means the new leader in front of you is incompetent.
But our glorious knights don't need witchcraftsmen! Mostly because knights don't want to rely on foul demons and the like!
(But if it weren't for that monster, the country would have fallen into the hands of the enemy a long time ago.
