Part 115: Frederick C
Chrom/Frederick C
I've completed my patrol of the encampment, milord. All appears to be in order. I found no sign of the enemy nearby. I believe we are safe here for the night.
Good to hear. Thank you, Frederick.
While on my rounds, I took it upon myself to inspect our weaponry as well. I've placed any items that showed exceptional wear outside your pavilion. Be your choice to sell or repair them, sire, I recommend swift action.
...Oh. Well, you HAVE been busy... Your work ethic always impresses, Frederick. I almost feel lazy by comparison.
Nonsense. I've done nothing more than my duty as a knight of Ylisse.
Oh, and beg pardon, milord, but I noticed you often cause a ruckus when training. With that in mind, I reinforced the tents near any open areas you're like to use.
Er, yes. I see. Sorry for the trouble.
No trouble at all, milord. Happy to help. ...Also, with the nights growing colder, I procured blankets from a nearby village. I readied a variety of colors so you might pick that which best suits you. If I may be so bold, sire, peach would seem to best flatter your complexion. But perhaps blue. Just to be safe? Yes, that's best. Blue it is! Here you are, milord. And two sets of spares, just in case.
Frederick, do you never tire?
Of course not, milord. I am here to serve. Ah, and one final thing: I've taken measures to raise troop numbers and morale. I had an artisan create posters emblazoned with your noble image. It's milord in a bold pose-naked, save a scale in one hand and a sword in the other. And at your feet, I scrawled our new recruiting motto: "Chrom Wants You!" I had the, pinned inside each and every tent.
Surely the troops will be trilled to rally behind their common leader, milord.
...Wait. You did what?! In whose...You hung this pict...in EVERYONE'S tent?!
No need for thanks, milord. Merely doing my duty.
And that concludes my report. Rest well, sire!
F-Frederick! Wait! We really need to...talk.
...Oh, gods. I've got to tear those posters down before anyone sees them!
