Chapter 61 — A Knight Who Eternally Regresses

Chapter 61

After defeating five assassins, Encrid loots the bodies, recovering whistling knives and valuables but leaving behind a suspicious pouch of poison. A patrol discovers the scene, and although initially suspicious, they accept Encrid's explanation after the Fairy Company Commander confirms the presence of poison. The patrol identifies the deceased as Jack, Bo, and Rotten. Two days later, border guards investigate the incident; Encrid remains calm during their questioning and declines an offer to join their unit. Back at the barracks, Rem attempts to ambush Encrid with an axe to test his reflexes, resulting in a small haircut. Krais, who is skilled with hair, trims Encrid's bangs for a fee. During the haircut, Encrid questions his squad about the deceased men. Krais reveals their backgrounds, leading Encrid to suspect the Thieves Guild, especially after Jaxon cryptically confirms a recent turnover within the guild. Seeking to investigate this connection and avoid the chore of shoveling the heavy snow, Encrid approaches the Fairy Company Commander. She grants him permission to undertake a self-initiated mission but warns him about the political complexities of the city's criminal guilds and the influence of the nobility. She jokingly warns him to avoid torches to prevent a fire in her quarters as he departs.
