The moment I arrived in Breisburg, Viscount Loewenbert, who had come out to meet me, greeted me with a litany of complaints. Strictly speaking, the capital lockdown had been a failed operation, but fortunately we had succeeded in arresting the ringleader.
For Viscount Loewenbert, it must have been a truly hair-raising moment.
He even said he had considered resigning as Capital Sentinel Commander.
"The blame is mine for failing to keep my subordinates in line, Baron. I'm truly ashamed. The investigation turned up no fewer than fifteen commanders bought off by the Neunil family. I knew those bastards were taking bribes on the side, but I never imagined they'd be this stupid."
Even bribery should come with some sense of timing, but they pulled that stunt during a critical operation of all times, so naturally they'll have to pay the price. The problem is that the blame could reach all the way up to Viscount Loewenbert himself.
