Chapter 66 — A Knight Who Eternally Regresses

Chapter 66

Following a confrontation with a group of criminals, Rem suggests killing them all to eliminate threats, but Encrid decides on a different approach. Encrid proposes robbing the criminals to secure warm monster skins for their lodgings, a plan that Rem and Ragna support. Krais uses his persuasive skills to convince the terrified criminals to enter the mansion to avoid freezing or being eaten by monsters. Inside, the group discovers that the man they thought was the leader is actually a subordinate named Gilpin, who had been using the leader's name as a decoy. Encrid explains that criminal guilds often use such tactics to sacrifice subordinates. Gilpin, showing more character than his predecessor, agrees to hand over the guild's accumulated wealth to spare his men. After looting the mansion, Encrid realizes that the information regarding their mission likely leaked through the barmaid at Vanessa's Pumpkin Soup Inn, who acted as an informant for the Thieves Guild. Krais admits to knowing about the leak but used the situation to confirm the guild's reach. The chapter concludes with Krais proposing a second job to Encrid, suggesting they take advantage of the wealth they have just acquired.
