The morning after they made the deal with Merck, they returned to the King's Capital.

"Then I'll take them home. And I'll tell the captain about the example."

Merck answers Rise with a sunny smile.

When it comes to telling Rise that he has no intention of resuming his regiment, and escorting Rise in the shadows.

"Be careful and go home."

"'Cause it's okay. I don't care if the bandits attacked me."

Saying so, Merck points to the Special Forces men caught by Rise.

Instead of accomplishing the mission, they had an awkward atmosphere with the burden of being caught and used as material for the deal.

"Then let's go."

In such a soothing atmosphere, Letty, who looks like she sank alone, heads to the carriage.

She was willing to take Rise back, but it was caused by her loss of venom when she saw Rise's demons working happily.

I don't want those kids in another fight.

Originally, Letty had quite a friendship with the demons of Rise.

If it was possible for her to fight together, it would have been a monster if they were human.

That's why I saw the demons as excellent fighters, and I thought this resumption mission was necessary.

But when such demons saw themselves living a life of singing peace without struggle, they seemed terribly dirty to take them back to the battlefield as a deterrent.

I joined the army to end the battle, but it was a fall to bring people back to the battlefield far from the battle.

So Letty gives up.

The battlefield will be fought only by those who choose to keep fighting.

"Oh, will Letty stay? I'll tell Captain Frieda."

And to such Letty's determination, Merck waited.

"Huh? Why?

Why should I stay if I give up taking Rise back?

Letty couldn't understand Merck's intentions.

"No, because apparently Rise is being targeted by spies from neighboring countries, and someone beside Rise made it necessary to threaten him not to make an extra mess."

"Huh!? Really?!?"

Letty, unaware of the exchange between Rise and Merck, could not hide the grate from the truth that was suddenly heard.

"That's right. So I thought I'd apply to Captain Frieda to send someone from the Knights as an escort for Rise. I want Letty to stay in this town."

"But it's Captain Frieda who decides that..."

Letty is confused when she tells me I can stay.

As far as she was concerned, she was not selfish enough to take it honestly.

"That's because I convince you. Besides, Rise's escort would be more comfortable with each other with Rise's associates, and you think a human being who knows Rise's worth would seriously protect him? Even in that sense, I'd like to ask Letty. Will you do it?

Merck asks me, Letty thinks.

(Are you sure it's me?

"Rise is better for Letty, too, right?

"Eh?"

Suddenly the spear comes at me and I'm confused Rise.

……

I was even more confused when I realized that Letty's gaze was focused on me.

"Right...... right. Is Letty better than a stranger?"

"Because."

Look at Letty while Merck winks.

"…… OK. I'll do it!

Rise told me he was better off, and Letty finally decided to stay as Rise's escort.

"Nice to see you again, Rise!

"Oh, wow."

Rise responds to Letty, who has offered her hand, herself.

Receiving that hand, Letty waved Rise's hand as a boom in an upbeat mood.

Well, this is about apologizing to both of you.

"Then I'll do it. We're both fine."

"Yeah, be careful."

"I'm not well."

Thus, Letty, a former colleague of Rise, stayed in town.

A month later, this is a mansion in Wangdu.

"An escort. Ooh!?"

From one of the rooms, I heard a man screaming.

"Calm down, General Frieda."

Of course it is Merck who is deceiving the Lord of his voice.

And it was General Frieda who gave instructions not to let Rise come back.

"What's an escort! You're going to blackmail the army. That man! If this happens, there's nothing better than capturing that man as a traitor!

Exciting General Frieda.

"If you do that, former General Muldo will represent this case. Then His Majesty the King will move."

"Huh!?"

Merck was right. Bringing Rise back into the army was a matter acknowledged by the King.

General Frieda's position in the court was subtle when he banished the most powerful dragon.

"What's more, this operation was caused by a spy on our side who leaked information."

"A spy!?"

Actually, it was information about Ketsey released by Rise, but that was something that Merck didn't even know about, so he believed the information that Rise was talking about a spy.

"Yes, so the first thing we need to do is consolidate our feet. Fortunately, negotiations with him have allowed all Special Forces humans to be recovered safely. I was wondering if the general's prerequisite is to find out who leaked the information from among us."

"Damn, I had to."

You can't behave badly when you have a spy in you. General Frieda had no choice but to ride Merck's, let alone Rise's, thoughts.

Even though General Frieda's aim was to revive Rise, his ruse forced the army to escort him and the town in which he lived.

There can't be any. Be wary of spies who leaked information about themselves.

"Hey Rise-Tamer! Someday they'll call you Gaffoon!

General Frieda mouths a line like a Sancho villain.

(I don't think this is going to make me say gaffoon. Ah)

It was Merck watching over his undisciplined boss.
