CH 61.3

“Wow! That’s great! As seniors, we will have to show them better, won’t we? Captain Baider?” (Charl)

“Damn! You’re just an adventurer…!” (Baider)

Baider, who had been sarcastically attacked by Charl, got infuriated and chased after the rat with his twin swords. It was not only summoned beasts that he disliked.

He also loathed adventurers as beings from the outside. Although he was concerned about them being a threat to the country, the root of his hatred was different.

‘I’m Baider, captain of the Royal Knights of Amphisbaena! I’ve been trained and brought up in a harsh environment that adventurers can’t even begin to think about! And yet… they all take it so lightly! They all look down on me!’

In desperation, Baider was now running around on his own. He was no longer thinking about his position as the leader of his troops. He continued to attack the rats, thinking only of his own unrivaled success.

He abhorred adventurers. On the other hand, he was also afraid of them. He was afraid that his originally shaky position would be destroyed by competent adventurers.

It was inevitable that he would go on another rampage.

“Agh!” (Oliger)

“You’re in my way!” (Baider)

“Oliger-san!” (Litty)

Baider’s boot, which kicked Oliger in the back, was making sounds. They had sharp blades on the toes, which could be used as a weapon.

Litty supported Oliger as he was about to fall to the floor after being kicked.

“I’m sorry… I’m just inexperienced…” (Oliger)

“That was his fault!” (Litty)

“No, just as Branch Manager Duggam had mentioned…. I easily let my guard down.” (Oliger)

Litty admired Oliger’s spirit and mentality. However, things had gone too out of control to do anything.

“Baider….” (Litty)

“Litty, there’s a rat over there. Please.” (Charl)

“But, but…” (Litty)

“Please.” (Charl)

It was Charl who diverted Litty away from Baider. Charl knew that Litty’s anger was building to the point of murderous intent.

No matter what kind of person Baider was, he had to be judged by the nation if he had harmed a member of the Order.

Having recognized Litty as a major talent, Charl wanted her to remain steady and calm minded in such situations.

“Caron, give him some healing magic.” (Charl)

“Alright. There you go.” (Caron)

“I apologize for the trouble I’ve caused…” (Oliger)

Myan bared her fangs and made angry noises in Baider’s direction on Litty’s behalf. Baider snorted at that, as if to provoke Myan.

“We’re almost done with the rats. Let’s push forward from here.” (Charl)

Charl was focused on defeating the rats. Baider, who was expecting Charl to retaliate, was relieved to hear that.

“You know… you should be watching your step!” (Charl)

“Whaaaat?!” (Baider)

At that moment, halberd’s handle caught Baider’s foot.

“Uhhh!” (Baider)

Baider lost his balance and his body faced the sewage. Charl left before the sound of water splashing was heard.

It was only after this that those present noticed something was wrong.

“Ahhh…” 

Jennifer covered her nose and mouth with her hands. It was a natural gesture, considering the disaster that was about to happen.

As Baider got out of the sewage, the first to react was Charl, who had made him fall. Pinching his nose, Charl ran away from him after commenting in an exaggerated tone, “Sorry! I didn’t know you were there!”

“Ugigigi…” (Baider)

A second later, the other members of Red Flag and the adventurers also started running away.

“Uppp!?” (Baider)

“There’s still rats over there! Keep going!”

Baider nearly threw up from the sewage that clung to him.

Only a few of Baider’s subordinates were present there. However, most of them were missing. Even though they knew they would be severely reprimanded later, they simply could not bear the stench of it.

“Hahaha, did I overdo it?” (Charl)

“is, is it okay?” (Litty)

“Dunno?” (Charl)

“Myan?” (Myan)

For some reason, Myan was imitating Charl, who was playing dumb. Litty felt a little better after seeing Myan had cooled down.
