The eyes staring at me were full of spite and resentment. It seemed really unfair. Perhaps because she was a spy, her acting skills were excellent.

“It happens when our unit captain isn’t here.. Is the Vice Commander trying to keep our captain in check?”

She doesn’t seem to know that Tragula had appointed her. Or maybe she does, and she’s trying to buy herself some time by framing it this way.

“Are you trying to drop the captain or weaken the force of the unit to put your beloved special troops into the elite?”

Hm. This is how you lead public opinion.

As if it were not meaningless, one or two people incited by her words began to talk in secret.

“She’s not just a member of the regular corps, she’s a member of the second army under the elite corps.. It’s certainly not right to kick her out without permission from the corps captain..”

The shield keeper of the Yellow Lightning troop, whose heart was shaken by the resentful theatrics of the twin swordsman, bowed his head before me and pleaded.

“.. Vice Commander. Please hold off at least until the unit captain arrives. We are like a family that has been closing dungeons together for years. It’s terrible to go without saying goodbye like this.”

It was a skit that didn’t even make me laugh.

That shield would have no idea that the person he was advocating for was a traitor.

Perhaps thinking she had me in a corner, the twin swordsman became very snide and raised her voice with enthusiasm.

“If the Vice Commander acts for personal gain without clear standards and discernment like this, the honor the Black Knights have built up so far will fall to the ground. Ah, how did the Black Knights of the heavens become like this, well..”

I stared at the swordsman. I tried to see how far she could say, but there was no end.

I tried to quietly kick her out without making a fuss, but she scratched my temper like this.

“Well.. I think you know the reason why you’re being pushed out.”

The twin swordsman cringed at my meaningful words. I remembered what Tragula said when he handed over the list.

Tragula had a heartbroken face when he said that.

He had thought he had hand-picked the troops, but it was all in the hands of Countess Nerus, so it was no surprise.

She should have seen the face of Tragula

then. If she had done so, she wouldn’t have been able to say this so brazenly.

No, maybe she would have been more brazen.

Usually, these people jump more at the fact that others have a small suspicion of themselves rather than how shameless they have been.

I approached the twin swordsman.

She was so confident earlier, but when I got closer, she hesitated and stepped back.

I looked coldly at her and asked.

“I’m working with very clear standards. To become a Black Knight, you have to be good enough to wear this uniform.. Above all, you must serve the Black Knight as your master. Now, let’s hear it here. Who is your master?”

“..Of course!”

She opened her mouth proudly, but she couldn’t finish talking.

Her eyes shook to sleep, not knowing how far I was grasping.

Hmm, if you’re going to play, you might as well do it a little more boldly. I snickered and shook my chin as I walked past her.

“Get rid of her.”

“Wait, wait! I can’t go out like this!”

Nova caught her as soon as my words fell.

The twin swordsman resisted, but could not shake Nova, whose stats were higher, though they were similar in level.

But that didn’t mean that Nova was in trouble.

I approached her as she struggled and whispered to her, tapping her lightly on the cheek.

“I think it would be better to leave. If I go and get the Commander, you’ll miss your chance to walk on both feet.”

“..!”

The twin swordsman’s eyes widened. She shuddered in fear of what she would become.

Seeing her quiet in an instant, Nova looked at me with respect.

I shrugged and beckoned as if to clean up, and unlike before, the twin swordsman was quietly arrested by Nova and kicked out of Nokentoria Castle.

Everyone who was watching the scene whispered.

“What, was she a traitor?”

“I didn’t know there was an idiot who would betray the Black Knight.”

“There’s no way there is only one of those things..”

Correct.

As I reorganized the Black Knights, I searched for Countess Nerus’s knuckles and processed them one by one.

There was also a new recruit who came in with Nova, so Nova, who was helping me with my work, was also troubled midway.

After such a coercive battalion organization of the Black Knights, I was given the nickname tyrant.

It was a nickname I never thought I would get, so when I heard it for the first time, I spit out all the liquor I had drunk.

Unfortunately, it cost Meyer his pants.

‘Well.. It’s still better than a weak-looking nickname.’

Even if I’m not actually strong, it’s better to look strong than weak. I took the new nickname positively.

The work was roughly completed, and I praised Nova for his hard work for this incident at the after-party of the special unit.

“Great job, Nova.”

“No, it’s all necessary. I’m proud that I’m doing my part because I heard that it helped the Vice Commander.”

His big smile was like a good labrador retriever.

Aigoo, how cute.

I passed the largest and fattiest part of the meat to Nova.

Then Sevi and Jeanne caught sight of it. That’s right. I have to cut it for them too.

As I was distributing the meat in this way, one after the other, in the order of the children, I became strangely dressed to distribute the food.

Now that this has happened, it’s not a bad idea to allocate some for everyone and start the after-party. I cut the meat as hard as I could.

“Anasta, too.”historical

April, now Anasta, who was handed over a plate, was confused because she didn’t expect me to cut the meat for her as well.

Anasta and Jeanne were also included in the special unit. Naturally, I let Jeanne know that Anasta was April.

Since the trio of the special unit were not mean children, they easily accepted Anasta and Jeanne.

Thanks to this, Jeanne had adapted to the Black Knights in a much brighter way than she had in the Fabian Expedition.

This made for a composition that could be considered a single-weight unit.

One healer, one long-range offensive mage, one defensive mage, one shield, and one dual-purpose short-range attacker.

And me, a support wizard.

One seat was vacant, it was August’s position.

I think it’s time to attack without August..

I had no choice but to bring it up because Meyer would act like a slug bathed in salt.

So a chunk of meat went up on everyone’s plate.

I applauded in a cheerful voice.

“Well, let’s eat first.”

“The reason why you want us to eat for now is that you have something to do after we eat, or you have something to say.. Is it something like that..?”

Sevi asked, rolling his eyes as if he were anxious. I clicked my tongue.

“That’s why you’re quick-witted.”

“After eating, I’ll get indigestion once or twice!”

Sevi shouted.

At first, the child was innocent, but he grew up a lot. I shrugged and responded as if it were natural.

“But it’s always indigestible even if you talk before you eat.”

“Do we have to talk about it today?”

Sevi shook his head earnestly. He knew the answer clearly but pretended not to know like he was trying to escape reality.

“I have to tell you in advance so that you can spend your free time more frugally. I’ve taken all of you into consideration.”

“Ughhh..”

In response to my shameless answer, Sevi pulled his hair out. Nova and Julieta also didn’t look good.

After all, if you’ve also eaten meat and know what it tastes like, it seems to paint a white picture of a hellish time after a few days of rest.

Anasta and Jeanne, who didn’t understand what was going on, only blinked.

They’ll find out soon enough, anyway. I urged them with a big smile.

“The meat is going to get cold. We’ll talk about it after we eat.”

“Yeeess..”

Hearing my predictable answer, the special unit despaired.

But there was no point in rebelling. Having quickly adapted to reality, they decided to enjoy some rest and became quite lazy.

Even Jeanne and Anasta got twisted.

Robur, who couldn’t stand to see how lazy they were, was so worried that she asked.

“The trio of the Special Unit has not been seen on the training grounds recently. Isn’t that terrible, no matter how long it’s only been a few days since the performance report?”

“A little freedom has to be enjoyed. If you repress them too much at a sensitive time, they’ll go sideways.”

“Aha. You’ve got a schedule. That’s a different situation.”

Robur giggled. Somehow, the trios’ expressions looked like death, and she added that it was worth it.

“And Tragula came back.”

“Oh, really?”

“Yes, I saw him on my way here.”

At Robur’s words, I immediately headed to Meyer’s office, where Tragula was presumed to have headed.

Thanks to that, fortunately, I was able to meet Tragula without being late.

“I cut off my relationship with Countess Nerus.”

Tragula’s shoulders were empty. The Golden Falcon, which had always been positioned as his symbol, had disappeared.
