Book 9: Prologue
Regis Letter
His back was soaked in cold sweat. Regis was born a commoner, and both his age and rank were low. He was also the strategist of the Fourth Princess, not a subordinate of the Second Prince. He even fought a skirmish that was akin to a civil war with the knights of the First Army in the past, which led to so deaths.
Legally speaking, he wasnt to be blad, but he was still soone who killed his colleagues.
On the other hand, his achievents in the war against High Britannia were acknowledged by everyone, and Latreille was the one who recruited him.
For the mbers of the First Army, it was a fact that this guy isnt welcod, but we cant criticize him openly.
Such suppressed negative emotions were more frightening than obvious shows of disgust Thats what Regis thought.
As expected, I should resign from this mission. Regis lost his nerves.
But he joined after considering all the pros and cons.
He couldnt go back on his words now.
For Altinas sake, Regis had to investigate Latreille, the mysteries surrounding the Emperors death and his policies from now on.
And also for a personal matter which was hard for him to say In order for Regis to return to the Fourth Army that was waiting for him, he needed to pass his Third Grade Admin Officer promotion test. If he fails, what awaits him would be a long period of re-test. On a side note, the subject of the test was practical skills.
It was impossible for Regis who couldnt even wield a sword properly to pass the test.
As the Field Marshal of the Empire, Latreille had the authority to use this battle as a replacent for the test.
Regis joined the Imperial First Army for this reason. Not only did it give him a chance to investigate the matters related to Latreille, he would be exempted from the promotion test and could return to the Fourth Army if he successfully took back Grebauvar city.
Even though the agreent was simple, Regis felt an uneasiness and pressure as if he was climbing a huge cloud-covered mountain.
