Think he'll behave now?​

The end result was beneficial but man Wend was spot on about finishing that plate of poison

 

[Oakheir]

I'm confused by how I should feel here. I mean he just got a bunch of capable people that he desperately needed, and I'm happy about it. But I think that the way Klaus did it was so totally round about, and what those guys said at the end makes question a bunch of stuff that has happened off screen. Like was Klaus approached, or did he make the approach?

I guess it's better to take in a poisonous snake under your care and potentially have it bite your ankles in the future, than have said snake free slithering around somewhere else and potentially have it bite your and your loved ones neck altogether. At least now, having said snake close, he'll have more things ready to serve as 'anti-venom' if ever this old man does something again.

Klaus got punished with a better post. What a man.

We probably won't ever know and if we will, it'll most likely be in the after dealing with the invading army. There's a lot of things we don't know about Klaus, his backstory felt more like a history of the domain than it was himself, that everything he does is round about.

My guess is he's probably loyal to the domain itself and not really to whoever is in-charge. Meaning, if it's for the domain to prosper, he'll do anything to get the right person to the correct position, in this case is Wendellin being the head of the Domain.

New cover, another wife?

New cover, another wife?

That's Elise's mother. Elise is the other one in the cover.

This manga always has the MOST flamboyant covers and double pages. It’s like the mangaka uses Easter as an inspiration. Still, I can’t say anything as I am enjoying this one after all this time.

Thanks for the translation!!

 

[Kisato]

Keep your friends close and your enemies closer as they say. It's probably best to have them work under him as he has the military just constantly in and out of his shit.

Still sketchy as fuck and wouldn't trust him with an inch of my life.

 

[Kikaibaka]

You feel that way because it did. Klaus's family and allies got more power, he became your direct vassal, and he secured relatively good treatment for the young ones who partook in the rebellion on Wend's side as well. You were comprehensively outplayed and can only hope he doesn't aspire for more power down the line.

Well, a good boss needs a competent subordinate.
Though someone who is too competent can be scary, a sign of a good leader is knowing how to manage them instead of getting scared and spiting them.

Not surprising that you confused, They Skipped the Entire Arc (no matter how small it is). I posted month ago a spoilers and the link for novel.
If someone wanted i will copy spoilers.

In a novel there was entire "FBI Open Up" situation.
Klaus actually did causes a rebellion, he along with his two grandsons leads 20 'adventures' into a Herman's house and take him and his family a hostage. That required a big mobilization of knights and surrounding of residence, then we will see this 'Area Stun' moment. In the novel it was meticulous triangular formation to exclude hostages and Klaus himself (due to old age it can kill him). But surprise Klaus played double game here, deliberately getting friendly with 'adventurers' and leading them into a trap. They are third, fourth or more sons of noble and knights without right to succession (whole novel point if we think about it) who was promised steady employment as payment for suicidal mission. And in process Klaus earn their respect and convinced to change allegiances along with names (there going to be some funny moments as a results when they meet theirs relatives who think they are should be KIA).
Another thing that cut out of story is a small conflict with two biological grandsons. Due to them being sons of concubine aka not a blue blood they are not allowed to have court rank and rise above certain standing, even if Wend doesn't mind it and willing to help. But they themselves are thinking otherwise and demand promotion more than acceptable by public (nobles). His in-laws don't cause such problem. That gives Klaus another reason for 'rebellion', because mistreatment of his children aka cool off their heads. We probably will miss their new fate but that was unimportant.

Reading them it's not surprise that People will get confused and feel disappointed as instead convoluted plot we got - "here it's over now" and rushed into civil war. Another disappointment from this two chapters is that author is telling us about Klaus's intellect and abilities, not showing it.
Then there the prisoners. In a novel it stated that plan to used them as evidence is not viable, they was erased from registers and theirs families was notified before hand.

I guess it's better to take in a poisonous snake under your care and potentially have it bite your ankles in the future, than have said snake free slithering around somewhere else and potentially have it bite your and your loved ones neck altogether. At least now, having said snake close, he'll have more things ready to serve as 'anti-venom' if ever this old man does something again.

Keep your friends close and your enemies closer as they say.

That exactly why he make him his direct subordinate, to keep an aye on scheming old men. And, for @damadicius and @Kikaibaka as well, since in the novel they did participated in an actual rebellion Wend having leverage over Klaus with his two grandsons that do got punished for it.

Fortunately Vel has a massive harem of competent wives (and one dude), so he doesn't need to trust anyone extra with his life.
