Reincarnated into a Werewolf, the Demon Lord Servants Chapter 4

After the war (prequel)

Episode 4

The invasion of Ryun city ended successfully. In less than an hour it was finished but the post war process is c.u.mbersome.

It was inevitable that there are deaths because of the battle. Of course it wasn’t the werewolf corps, it was the Ryun city guards. The werewolf corps have considerably hold back their power but still seven guards fall into victim. The number of injured are more than one hundred. If they aren’t holding back, even a ma.s.sacre of the whole town isn’t impossible.

So here I am, treating people with recovery magic. It is even better than going to hospital since the medical standards of this world is too low. Just by simple infectious diseases, people can die.

“Is it finished?”

I already returned to my human form when treating the injured.

Magician, in this world is considered as elites, even more prestigious than doctors and lawyers. Even if Ryun city is a strategic city, there is no single magician in this place. Of course that also makes me special in the demon lord army.

Therefore, when I start treating the injured, the guards face all changed. They look at me as if looking at a midable arcane.

Therefore I also need to tell the guards.

“There are only a small amount of people that could confronted werewolves without fear. Even more, those who survived fighting them. Although we’re holding back, still the guards are worthy of respect.”

This is praising but also holding back. It is necessary to show the differences between our power but I need to keep their pride. It’s difficult.

“These seven heroes, we are sending them to the other world in the name of viceroy Airia hall. They will forever be known as the most courageous and formidable warriors.”

It’s unfortunate that some people are died but sacrifice are necessary. I give a salute to the fallen and followed by the guards.

Still, this is awkward…

I also have lots of thing to do. The Inu tribes, can’t be place in town so we make camp around the gates. Actually they are pretty weak. If one of them go against a group of farmer they have a chance to be beaten. So, actually their number isn’t for battle reinforcement. They are here as an engineer, craftsmen, they are here to maintain the city wall and report to me if there’s abnormality.

Food also becomes a problem since the number I brought are ma.s.sive. Fighting for food between werewolves and Inu tribe are happening but they need to do it to survive.

My fifty six werewolves are residing at the lord’s mansion. It was normal since they can turn into human but still the food are gathered by their self.

Now, another problem will be deciding the representative to be the guards leader. Who is good enough to be appointed?

The Gurnee twins are out of the question. Even if they are powerful, their rebellious nature need them to be put directly under my care.

I wanted to ask some of the veterans but most of them aren’t fit when they returned to elderly human form. I really wanted to settle this problem and rest.

When I was thinking, a woman that is a little bit older than me approached. Her name is Fern, she was the ‘onee-chan’ of the neighborhood. She was my first love. We even made a promise to get married when we I’m five years old.

“Raito, don’t you have something for me to do?”

“Ah, Fern… wait a minute.”

Unconsciously I said that in my childhood tone so I was panicked.

Fern is only looking at me while chuckle.

“You have finished organizing the Inu tribes right? What do you think about leading the guards?”

if it was her, there would be no problem. She often leads the pack when raiding and she is also someone I can trust. To tell the truth, if I were to fight her without using magic, I couldn’t win, she is that strong. Because she was qualified so this matter is settled.

“Well, I’ll appoint you to be the guards captain. This is the list of the member, some might be moved to other squad.”

“Let see… yeah, okay. Leave it to me.”

Fern send a wink to me when she said that and involuntarily my heart beats *doki*.

However I should pretend that nothing happened and remain calm.

“Fern…”

“Yes, I’ll do my best.”

She bowed with a smile and went out while looking at the paper.

Actually, I was wondering what would she say if I ask her to marry me.
