Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

Chapter 651 The credit is mine

I turned to look at him with a look of disbelief, but General Killock just gave me a nod as if he was confirming this.

I looked at him once more with a more serious look and he gave the same nod as before.

With a sigh, I turned back to look at General Gardner who was shouting at his men to save him.

Slowly, they were bringing their bows up as if they were about to attack.

Seeing this, General Killock shouted, "Don't attack, we're friendly!"

When they heard this, the soldiers showed hesitation since they recognized that voice.

General Gardner also stopped yelling for his men to save him as he looked up at us.

It took him a while before he was able to calm down, but the way that he looked up made it clear that he still didn't trust us.

However, at the very least, they didn't start firing their arrows at us and allowed us to land in front of the fort.

I could feel the trepidation that was coming from Joan under me when she saw the way that the soldiers were pointing the arrows at her, but I patted her on the back and said, "It's fine. I'll go and talk to them."

She looked up at me and slowly gave a nod before calming down.

But I could tell that she was still prepared to escape at any moment.

Once we landed, General Killock jumped off Joan's back and moved over to the fort to say, "It's fine, we've already destroyed the enemy army. There are no more enemies left to attack us."

All of them looked at General Killock in shock as if they couldn't believe what he was saying.

After a long silence, General Gardner looked up at Joan and said, "Then this is…?"

His voice trailed off at the end, but it was clear what he was implying.

General Killock looked back at me and then said to General Gardner, "These are the special reinforcements sent by the fourth prince."

"Special reinforcements…" General Gardner repeated, but it was clear by the look on his face that he didn't seem to believe this.

But General Killock reached into his armour to pull out a piece of paper that he went over to present to General Gardner.

General Gardner took it with a doubtful look, but he recognized the mark that was on it.

This was the seal of the fourth prince and there was no one who was crazy enough to fake this seal.

That meant that this was indeed a real letter from the fourth prince.

As soon as he confirmed this, General Gardner no longer hesitated as he read the content of the message.

He had the same reaction as General Killock at first as he didn't understand what the message meant. But then when he looked up at the wyvern that was in front of him, he understood.

It seemed that the wyverns that had appeared on the battlefield were indeed reinforcements.

After looking at the wyvern in front of him for a bit, his expression slowly started to change.

Seeing the look on his face change like this, I couldn't help feeling a bit strange about the way that he looked at us. However, on the surface, I had a calm look on my face as if I wasn't worried at all.

After a long silence, General Gardner said to me, "Then you're saying that these wyverns listen to everything that you tell them?"

I shook my head while saying, "They won't listen to everything that I tell them, but they will listen to my orders when it comes to fighting."

There was a trace of disappointment that appeared on General Gardner's face when he heard this.

I knew immediately what this person was thinking as soon as I saw this expression on his face and there was a strong dislike for this person that filled me. If I could, I would have punched him in the face at that moment, but I held myself back in the end.

After all, I knew that I still needed him.

As for what he was thinking…

A noble like him was without a doubt thinking about how he could have shown off if he were to have a wyvern as a pet.

If he really tried anything, I wouldn't let him do it, but it was a good thing that he didn't try anything in the end.

After looking disappointed for a bit, General Gardner said, "Well, since these wyverns are under you and you came here as our reinforcements, then I'm still the one in charge of this place. As such, the credit of taking down the enemy goes to me, isn't that right."

General Killock looked like he wanted to say something, but I quickly stopped him by coughing.

Then looking down at General Gardner who was looking up at me with greedy eyes, I revealed a faint smile as I said with a nod, "That's right. Since you are the commander here and we are just your reinforcements, it was all perpetrated by you and you deserve all the credit."

General Gardner revealed a wide greedy smile when he heard this before saying, "Good, I'm glad that you understand. You can leave with your wyverns now, we'll take care of the rest."

General Killock looked like he really wanted to say something again, but I shook my head at him.

General Gardner had naturally seen this as well and he even looked at General Killock as if he was daring him to do something. From the very beginning, he already disliked General Killock who kept trying to boss him around, but he hadn't been able to do anything since General Killock belonged to the fourth prince.

Now…he wanted him to say something so he could take care of him at the same time.

But General Killock held himself back in the end.

General Gardner looked a bit disappointed, but he didn't say anything else to him.

Instead, he looked at me and waved his hand as if he was dismissing me while saying, "You can go now."

I just gave a simple nod and patted Joan on the back before leaving.

As I left, there was a faint smile that appeared on my lips.
