The War Hero Raises a Demon Slave

33 – Get permission to work side-by-side!

It is a place where trees and grass grow endlessly in the sunlight and wind of the gentle southern ocean.

There are also rocky mountains and valleys here and there, so you can attack enough travelers if you want to.

Of course, there are paved roads that travelers usually use, but even those are only near Daham.

The security guards, whose main job was port security, could not patrol the northern land route indefinitely.

And to be honest, the place where the incident took place is quite far away, so if it comes under the jurisdiction of the security forces, well.

However, if there is a threat on the overland road entering Daham from the outside, it would be right for Daham’s security forces to step in.

After all, you have to be responsible for the safety of those who have come to Daham or are moving to come.

In addition, the anti-siege map visiting group will come down from Kakot through that side, so let go while arguing about the jurisdiction?

It’s the same as declaring that the head of the management office will end his public career.

Is it only the head of the management office? It was obvious that the chief of security, who is in charge of public security, would be entangled one after another and leave.

Anyway, any clues?

“This case is presumed to be a robbery and murder for the money of travelers.”

The investigation chief got up and announced the details of the investigation.

In other words, everything else was the same, but only money and valuables disappeared without a trace.

And, of course, I don’t think he’s a single culprit.

A group of robbers.

At that, the captains whispered to each other.

There were minor robbers, but there were no gangs of robbers who formed a full-fledged group.

There are gangs of gangs in the city, but they are properly controlled under the strict surveillance of the security forces.

“Is there an influx of outside forces?”

“I don’t know about that. But it’s possible. We’re currently checking with the Kakot Guard.”

“Come on, anyway!”

The chief of security, Hadun, intervened.

“Details are still being tracked by the Investigation Division, and the Port Security Force is currently in second-class security!”

“Oh, sh*t.”

Dynave cursed quietly.

Class 2 security readiness refers to standby for all members of the barracks and 24-hour reinforced patrol.

“If you find out, move quickly! Go and control the crew!”

At Hadun’s scolding, the team leaders left the situation room grumbling.

Einer, passing in front of Hadun, stopped and asked.

“Captain.”

“What.”

“Don’t forget to apply for a concurrent business permit.”

While doing so, Einer glanced at the director of the management office who was sitting behind him.

I must have heard it because it was right after me.

Hadun shouted as he grabbed the club handle.

“Tack! Get out of here, you bastard! I’m busy!”

* * * * *

As soon as I came out of the situation room, the head of the security guard summoned the chiefs separately and gave them a specific order.

Ainer narrowed his eyes as he received the detailed alert operation order including the working hours for each group and the patrol area.

Einer’s group definitely had more patrol areas and working hours than other groups.

“Chief. What is this? Why is our team like this?”

“With great power comes great responsibility.”

The other captains giggled at the security manager’s answer.

“Actress, really. Even a knife gets dull if you keep using it.”

“You can sharpen it when it gets dull.”

The chief of security looked around at the team leaders and said.

“This time, the group that catches the culprit first will receive a reward in the name of the Commissioner. So everyone, do your best.”

“What is the reward?”

“I don’t know. Still, since you’re the head of the port management office, can’t you give me a first-class treat?”

“Ohhh!”

The leaders burst into exclamation at the unprecedented reward.

“Hey, Einer! Instead of doing that, can’t we switch jobs with you guys?”

When Dynave coveted Einer Joe’s work schedule, which had a high probability of catching a criminal as he turned hard, the chief of security intervened like a knife.

“Dynav, you can’t.”

“Why not?”

“Enlistment test scores.”

Then Dynave had no choice but to keep his mouth shut.

Einer’s enlistment test score is the highest ever.

Dynave, on the other hand, has the opposite meaning.

“By the way, manager. Shouldn’t the road be blocked?”

At the question of a certain leader, the section manager looked around the main office with strange eyes.

That’s right.

It seems that our commissioner is afraid that rumors will leak to the anti-siege map visiting group.

“If everyone is having a hard time, let’s end the situation before dinner tomorrow.”

The chief of security clapped his hands and dismissed the captains.

Einer, who was about to return to the crew, saw the alert operation order and called Dynave.

“Looks at my house in your patrol area, is that right?”

“That’s right. Why? Can you stop by and bring me some underwear?”

“No. Tell the slave at home that you won’t be able to come in for a few days.”

“A slave?”

Dynav, who had been tilting his head, snapped his fingers.

“Oh, that demon slave? Got it. It’s not a difficult request.”

“And if you’re not in the house, open all the kitchen shelves.”

“What do you mean, that?”

“Anyway.”

I don’t know why, but Dynav nodded, saying yes.

* * * * *

After finishing the meal, Ael washed the dishes while humming softly.

It’s a bit scary because the owner isn’t there, but it still feels good when you’re full.

After washing the dishes, Ael pondered for a while as he looked at the bolt on the front door.

I’m sleeping and if the owner comes, I don’t think he’ll be able to come in.

Should I leave the door open?

From noble mtl dot com

Still, he said to lock the door well, so let’s leave the front door open and open one window to the side yard.

You have to break through the weeds to get there, so if someone is coming, you will know in advance by sound.

If you can’t hear it, it won’t matter much, right?

Even if you get caught by a sleeping bird, you can break the chains if you open up your body.

Being a bit of a nuisance to me is better than being hit by the dew in the morning when the owner can’t come home.

Ael, who came to a conclusion there, ran to Dodo and left the window in the side yard slightly open.

After finishing all the work, Ael went upstairs and threw herself on the bed.

The clean bed the owner bought me smelled good.

A bed large enough for two adults to lie on.

Here is a straight desk.

You must have spent a lot of money on furniture, right?

If you open a restaurant, you should work hard to repay the favor.

As he lay on his side and looked at the starry night sky outside the window, Ael thought of Einer.

Is the master going to be okay?

If you say emergency call, it sounds like something big has happened.

Mr. Toby said it was a murder case, but he wondered if it would go to an emergency call?

Maybe a lot of people died.

Hey, then that’s a real big deal.

You didn’t bring anything with you because you were in a hurry.

Underwear, extra clothes, and snacks to eat with the members of the crew.

You’ll keep eating that tasteless porridge.

Should I do something about the Dwarf Captain I saw last time?

You have to look good to your superiors to make your work life easier.

Because of the nature of the owner, I don’t think he can be a flatterer, so I’ll have to help him with something like this.

Hmm, then what kind of menu should I do….

Aren’t dwarves meat and alcohol….

But since we are concentrating on an emergency call, it would be better to stop drinking.

Hmm, then I have to get up early in the morning.

Let’s go to the market and buy a lot of things and pack a hearty lunch!

When he thought about that, Ael suddenly remembered the red-haired woman he met at the market today.

Because she was tall and pretty, she didn’t know how to count money and casually carried pig’s hind legs on her shoulders.

No matter how much I think about it, I don’t understand.

Why is something like that walking around the market looking like that?

Where did you get the money and what else is the pig’s hind leg going to be used for?

As the master said, Daham is overcrowded with all kinds of people and races flocking from the continent.

Dahham is like a hodgepodge of eternal stew at a cheap inn, but it has its own consistent color and smell.

Ael covered himself with a blanket and whispered to Cantavera at the window.

“Good night, Cantavera.”

After greeting Cantavera, Ael immediately fell into the land of dreams.

* * * * *

“Aww, master…”

Ael rolled up the blanket with his foot while talking in his sleep.

“I can’t do it right now… The pot is overflowing…”

I wonder what he was dreaming about. Ael laughed and scratched his half-exposed stomach.

Then he suddenly stopped his hands and opened his eyes.

I think I just heard something… ?

As I held my breath and listened, I could hear a strange sound coming from the first floor.

Could it be a thief?

I must have left the window open… !

Al was nervous and carefully opened the door and went out.

As I crept down halfway up the stairs, the sound became clearer.

“Where are you?”

A voice searching for something and the sound of kitchen shelves opening and closing.

Looks like a thief is looking for something to steal from the kitchen!

No! There are a lot of important things in it?!

There are cooking utensils, spices and seasonings, plates, and the most precious square shovel for pork belly!

I’ve been wandering around the market to get it!!

“Don’t touch the shovel!”

Ael ran to her kitchen, opening her hands.

“Aww?!”

The man who had just closed one of the shelf doors and turned around collapsed on the floor screaming.

It’s a ghost that rushes in the dark, spreading its claws like blades on both hands!!

“Huh…?”

Raising her sharp claws, Ael stopped in bewilderment.

How strange is that person’s clothes… ?

A blue half-cloak and leather armor… Harbor security?!

“Hey?!”

She hurriedly returned her hands back as Ael let out a gasping sound.

Seeing that, Einer’s neighbor leader Dynab stuttered and opened her mouth.

“Eh, Einer… A slave…?”

“Ho… Ho ho, is it possible that you are a friend of the owner of Einer…?”

As Dynav nodded his head with difficulty, Ael felt his eyes go blank.

“Wooooo!!”

Ael fell flat on the floor and apologized.

“Ahahahaha… Yes…”

The relaxed Dynave laughed.

“Einer… I can’t come in for a few days… I want you to know…”

As he looked up at Dynave, who had just woken up, Ael had tears in his eyes.

“The master?”

“I think you were worried because you were alone. But just looking at it, you should be worried about thieves coming here…”

“Sorry…”

“No… Thank you for saving me…”

Dynab walked past Ael with hesitant steps and opened the bolt on the front door.

“Then I’ll go…”

“Joe, go inside carefully! Tell the owner to cheer up!”

“Yes, yes…”

As the front door closed, the voices of other members could be heard from outside.

“Captain? What happened inside? Why are you walking out like that?”

“Nothing happened.”

“But why are you screaming… Huh? What? Did you spill water on your pants? Ugh, they’re damp?”

“Get out of here, you bastard! Don’t touch it!”

Listening to that sound, Ael thought.

A friend of the owner came to preach the message and while he was drinking water, I surprised him and poured out all the water….

Such a stupid slave… !

I’ll have to tell the owner later and apologize again….

It was Ael who scolded himself.
