‘I can’t just leave them behind.’
It was unexpected that the Elf Company Commander took all the members of the troublemaker squad, who were now platoon members. Even Enkrid wouldn't have believed it if he hadn't seen the empty barracks, so Krais, who had been away from the barracks for several days already, naturally wouldn't have known.
That must be why he asked him to call for Ragna.
‘How did he manage to not get dragged away for the campaign?’
Since Enkrid himself had stayed behind, did he use the excuse that he would join them later? Or was Krais left behind out of consideration from the Elf Company Commander? In any case, Krais remained, but he had no squad members.
It meant Enkrid had to rescue him alone. He couldn't just summon the squad members who had gone to the battlefield. And mobilize the standing army for an internal matter of the Gilfin Guild?
‘Not a chance.’
As if they'd help. Well, it might be different if there was someone to count on. The Elf Company Commander, for instance.
Even if she were here, it would be a gamble. What about Torres? It might be difficult for him as a Platoon Leader of the Frontier Guard, but perhaps he could help as an individual.
‘He did say the Frontier Guard, aside from a few, were also heading out immediately.’
