Chapter 21: 21 CHAPTER XXI -- Welcome home

The morning after making a deal with Melk, they were to return to King's Landing.

Then I'll take them home with me. And I'll let the Commander know about this.

Merck answers Lasse with a sunny smile.

About letting Lasse know that he doesn't want to come back, and about being shadowed by Lasse.

Take care on your way home.

I'll be fine. With these guys, I wouldn't be afraid of being attacked by bandits.

Saying that, Merck points to the special forces members captured by Lasse.

Instead of accomplishing the mission, they were in an awkward mood, guilty of being captured and used as a bargaining chip.

Then let's go.

In the midst of this harmonious atmosphere, a somber-looking Letty heads for the carriage.

She was ready to take Lasse home, but the sight of the demons of Lasse working happily has drained her mind of its venom.

(You don't want to involve them in another battle.)

Originally, Letty had a certain amount of friendships with the demons of Lasse.

She didn't care if they were human or demon, as long as they could fight with her.

That's why she saw the demons as an excellent fighting force, and she thought that this reinstatement mission was necessary.

However, seeing those demons enjoying peace without fighting, I felt very dirty, thinking it was natural to bring them back to the battlefield as a deterrent force.

(I joined the military to end the battle, but to bring people back to the battlefield after they walked away from it is just the opposite.

So Letty gives up.

Decide that from now on, the battlefield will be fought only by those who choose to keep fighting.

Oh, will Letty stay?　I'll let Commander Frieda know.

And to Letty's determination, Merc waited.

'Huh?　Why?

Why should I stay when I've given up on bringing Lasse back?

Letty didn't understand Merck's intentions.

''No, it seems that Lasse is being targeted by spies from the neighboring country, so I needed someone to be with Lasse to intimidate him from messing with him any more than he had to.

"What?　Really?

Letty, who didn't know about the exchange between Lasse and Merck, was taken aback by the sudden truth she was told.

"Really. So I thought I'd apply to Commander Frieda to send someone from the Order to guard Lasse. I want Letty to stay in town as the advance guard.

But it's Commander Frieda who decides that ......　

Letty was confused when she was told she could stay.

It's a wishful thinking situation for her, but she was not selfish enough to take it in stride.

That's what I'll talk to you about. Besides, it would be easier for both of us to protect Lasse with people from Lasse's people, and people who know Lasse's value are more likely to protect him seriously?　I'd like to ask Letty to do that for me. Will you do it?

Asked by Merck, Letty thinks.

(Are you sure it's me?)

"Isn't Reese better than Letty, too?

"Huh?

Suddenly the point of view turns to you and you are perplexed.

......

Lasse was even more confused when he noticed Letty's gaze was focused on him.

"Yeah ....... Better Letty than a stranger?

"Because,

Merck looks at Letty with a wink.

"...... Okay. I'll do it!

When Lasse said he was better, Letty finally decided to stay on as Lasse's bodyguard.

It's good to see you, Lasse!

"Oh, oh.

Letty held out her hand, and Lasse responded by holding out his own hand.

Letty accepted the hand and buzzed Lasse's hand with a good-natured wave.

(Well, this much is an apology to both of you.

I'll be off then. Take care of yourselves.

Yeah, take care of yourself.

Be well.

Thus, Letty, a former colleague of Lasse's, will remain in town.

.

A month later, here's a mansion in King's Landing.

Bodyguard?

From one of the rooms I heard a man shout.

"Calm down, General Frida.

It was of course Merck who was calming the owner of the voice.

And it was General Frieda who shouted, "Don't let Lasse come back!

"What escort!　That man is threatening the army!　We have no choice but to capture that man as a traitor!

An excited General Frieda.

"If I do that, Gen. Maldo will bring this matter to light. When that happens, His Majesty will make a move.

!

Merck was right. Bringing Lasse back into the army was a matter for the king's approval.

General Frieda's position in the court was in danger of being compromised by the expulsion of her most powerful dragon handlers.

"In addition, this operation was caused by a spy on our side who leaked the information to the public.

A spy?

Actually, it was the information Lasse had given Ketsey that Merck didn't know, so he believed Lasse's information about a spy.

Yes, so the first thing we need to do is to get a firm footing. Fortunately, we were able to negotiate with him and we were able to recover all of our Special Forces personnel safely. The general thinks it's important to find out who among us leaked the information.

"d*mn, if I have no choice.

You can't act badly when you have a spy in your family. General Frieda had no choice but to play into Merck's and, more importantly, Lasse's hands.

Thus, Lasse's return to the army is off the table, as General Frieda had hoped, but his wiles have forced the army to guard him and the town where he lives.

All in all, he's on the lookout for a spy who leaked information about them that shouldn't be there.

"It's you, Lasse-Tamer!　One day I'll make you gawk at me!

General Frieda saying lines like a three-note villain .

(This is not going to make me guffaw.)

Merck was looking on with dismay at his untrained boss.
