I, who was eager to retire, became an Imperial General.

Chapter 30 Leia understood everything!
Alright, alright, this poor guy finally fell for it. All my hard work in putting on this show wasn't in vain.

The actors are now in place, and they've all taken the blame.

As long as that unlucky Leia does as she's told and attacks the town of Bahamut.

Eventually, the Serbian dragon girl will notice them, leading to a firefight.

At that time, Leia will definitely suffer a crushing defeat.

Not only could he escape being killed by Serbia, but he could also conveniently shift the blame onto that unfortunate girl, Leia.

I, the warrant officer, have already taken all the advantages—timing, location, and popular support—into account. This time, the advantage is on my side.

I really can't think of any possibility of losing, haha!
Looking at Leia, who had agreed earnestly, completely oblivious to the humiliating defeat that awaited her.

While John chuckled inwardly, he couldn't help but feel a pang of pity for the poor, unfortunate fellow.

Especially when thinking about the terrifying fighting power of that Serbian dragon girl.

John couldn't help but worry that the little girl might be killed by the other party if she was careless.

Therefore, after a moment's thought, he couldn't help but call out to Leia, who was planning to assemble the troops for the mission, and added under her somewhat puzzled gaze:

"Leya, once you arrive in Bahamut, remember to watch out for a woman with red hair and red eyes. She's dangerous."

"Yes, if you do encounter them and fight them, and you're truly outmatched, run away as fast as you can. Don't worry too much about the mission; survival is the priority, understand?"

"Got it, I'll pay attention."

While moved by John's words of advice, Leia became more interested in the red-haired woman he had mentioned.

She never expected that John would care so much about her safety.

He even said that she could abandon the mission at the right time to save herself.

Faced with a choice between loyalty and comradeship, Warrant Officer John chose the latter this time.

This must have been an extremely difficult decision for Warrant Officer John, who was known for his unwavering loyalty.

Similarly, if this were to be exposed, it could cause considerable trouble for Warrant Officer John.

However, don't worry, I will never let that happen.

Since the gentle Warrant Officer John has placed so much trust and expectation in me, I must respond to him perfectly!

As for the 'severing' technique unique to his family that he inherited, he was regarded by countless people as a monster.

In battle, they never lose to anyone.

Even the red-haired woman was a troublesome presence for the genius-level Warrant Officer John.

But the other party could never be a match for me!
She would, like her ancestors, become the Norman Empire's strongest spear, vanquishing all villains who dared to hinder its progress. She would make everyone understand that no human being in this world could withstand her power, and from this day forward, no one would dare to provoke it!

If you absolutely have to choose one target to operate on...

So let's start with this unknown red-haired woman who's giving Warrant Officer John a headache!

He killed her, and then used that to prove his worth to Warrant Officer John.

Make it clear to Warrant Officer John that you will be his sharpest blade.

Only I am worthy to be his blade!

"All who resist are villains, and villains must be killed!"

Leia murmured to herself, a chilling murderous intent flashing in her gentle emerald eyes.

But she quickly erased that murderous intent, and it was replaced by a calm that soothed the soul.

Leia now understands what Warrant Officer John expects of her.

Therefore, she has to do her best!
Leia glanced at Warrant Officer John directly in front of her with reverence and fervor, then turned and left to prepare the troops as John had instructed, intending to immediately lead them to execute the 'bait' plan.

"What's going on? My right eyelid keeps twitching. Is it because I didn't sleep well last night?"

After Leia left, John, who inexplicably felt his right eyelid twitching, was filled with doubt.

But after rubbing it for a long time without any improvement, he assumed it was due to lack of sleep and didn't pay much attention to it.

Instead, he turned his gaze to Wendy, who had somehow put away the map and slipped into the bushes, looking furtive as if she wanted to escape.

Their gazes met in mid-air, and then silence fell.

"Haha, Captain, well, I just found a grasshopper here, it's so pretty, so I wanted to catch it and give it to you. I definitely didn't mean to hide it in the grass, please don't misunderstand."

Wendy's forehead was covered in cold sweat, and she stammered as she explained.

The grass hasn't even grown tall yet, and there are already grasshoppers, right?
You stupid pig, can't you find a single convincing reason?

"Really? Hehe, my dear vice-captain, I have lots and lots of beautiful grasshoppers in my car, and even goldfish. So if you really want to see them, why don't you come with me in the car? How about it?"

"No! Captain, I was wrong, I was really wrong, please forgive me!"

"Beg for mercy? It's too late! You stupid pig, just accept your fate!"

John grinned maliciously, then grabbed the man by the collar without a word, ignoring his screams and pleas for mercy, and forcibly dragged the stupid vice-captain toward the jeep.
