I’ll Live My Second Life!

Chapter 174

He walked after the soldiers and studied the work of the patrol, as did the Phys.

While stopping by as well as a determined route, they check the woods for suspicious humans and for signs of life like someone hiding out of sight.

What struck me most of all was having a lot of conversation with the hunters who were in the woods and the people in the village who stopped by.

He was a troop leader dealing with the soldiers in a crisp tone, but when talking to the villagers, he turns off the intimidation and talks in an atmosphere that seems easy to talk to.

And I’m going to ask you properly if there have been any suspicious events or any problems.

The Fees were just looking at it, but I felt trusted.

The patrol of the soldiers took place with many breaks scissors.

Rest in the woods or get a cup of tea in the village you stopped by.

Sounds like it’s not something you should digest the route quickly.

We need to keep the strength to deal with whatever happens on the road.

Apprentice knights who initially wondered if they cared about themselves, but basically they don’t. Still, hey, he said he was about to increase his break a couple of times.

While I was resting, I also learned how to make an easy line.

The apprentice knights also chat as they take a lunch break in the village where they stopped at about noon.

“This kind of work would be nice.”

“Yeah, it helps”

As a cousin, I may be thinking about my possession. Maybe even in my own territory, I’m thinking of creating a similar vigilante.

I think it’s great.

Hazel, who was with me, also agreed.

“Sure. I also admired the glorious work of getting in and knocking the bandits aside, escorting princesses and knights, but this isn’t a bad idea, is it? It feels like I’m seeing the face of the person I’m protecting. And the view is beautiful, and the air is delicious.”

“Ha-ha-ha, it’s not country tourism.”

The Force Leader appeared laughing from behind Hezel.

“Ah, bu, troop leader. Excuse me.”

Unexpectedly peppery Hezel.

“No, for any reason, I’m not in a bad mood for you to think it’s good. I also love Nijmas, which can be taken in the river here and there. Even kicking a transfer order is enough to stay here.”

That said, the troop leader laughs mischievously.

It sounded like a joke, but it looked serious. I was also baking Nijimas salt for lunch earlier.

“How long have you been doing this job?

“Well, it’s been a little over 10 years.”

“Are you good at swords?

“Ha, you want to fight?

The Troop Leader answers the questions of the Apprentice Knights with ease.

“Um, me, I’m impressed. It feels like we trust each other with the people who live here and the people who keep us safe. Building trust, not just force and defeating bad guys, is the most important thing in this kind of work.”

Says how Raimier was really impressed.

Well, I guess Raimier would be really impressed. Definitely.

Even the Fees were impressed for what they deserved.

I’ve only ever had a vague image of patrolling. Armed, I just walk around intimidating people around. It was almost like this.

“Hmm.”

And the captain shaved his beard with his chin.

“You guys seem to be learning a lot seriously, so let me tell you what’s most important to this job.”

The squad leader’s gaze narrowed.

“It’s about not trusting the villagers completely.”

“What…?

The apprentice knights are bewildered by the word.

Because today, it was the exact opposite of what I’ve seen.

“And do you mean don’t believe me?

“I didn’t say that much. Of course, I believe it. But I will not forgive you until the last line.”

“Are we talking about having to believe too much because there are mistakes in talking about villagers?

That is certainly the case. Teaching a teacher, talking about a friend, includes something inaccurate about what humans talk about. So they teach it’s important to verify it yourself.

“You do have that, too. But it’s a simpler story.”

“What…”

Troop leaders are referred to in the confused boys.

“They think they’re as greedy and bad as we are. Sometimes you will lose the temptation of evil. If I suck, I dye my hands in crime. Neither do we. Yet the person you are protecting is good. That would be arrogant, wouldn’t it?

…………

To the story of the troop leader, the boys remain silent.

The trooper laughed at the look on his face.

“Well, if you don’t make this kind of work a living, you don’t have to worry about it. You talked too much. Besides, if you’re a knight normally, there are a lot of things you should learn before that, like how to make a line and how to make a patrol.”

The troop leader grinned gently as he melted the boys’ awkward silence. Like the villagers often do.

“Tomorrow I’ll teach you how to make a more full-fledged formation. I was going to be a little later, but you guys are good.”

“Yes!”

The apprentice knights also replied with a smile back to the words of the troop leader.

Then he also digested the route well and came back to the fort as the sun went down.
