The Freed S*aves Became Obsessed

Chapter 137

Lake Fortress’ Chief, Darka.

Darka, once a proud leader, had succumbed to dementia, forgetting not only her role but also the people around her. While age might seem the likely cause, Darka’s condition had a specific trigger.

She had a son named Baskal.

For the northern people, becoming a Northguard was the highest honor, and Baskal was no exception.

Baskal was a skilled Northguard, well-liked and respected. His abilities and character earned him the fervent support of the tribe, making him the clear successor to the role of chief.@@@@

Impersonating the person himself would have been ideal, but the difficulty of such a performance was too high. Not only was there the issue of appearance, but also intimate details that only Baskal himself could know.

No matter how much I knew as someone who had taken over this body, it was impossible to know everything. Even if Darka was a crucial NPC, memorizing every detail about a non-main character was unfeasible.

On the other hand, playing the role of a long-time friend seemed plausible. Such friends were likely to exist, and memories of them would have some resistance to distortion.

Although our first meeting was a bit rocky, that didn’t matter. Darka’s senility meant any bad feelings had already faded into the distant recesses of her memory.

Smiling warmly, I whispered to Darka as though speaking to the mother of an old friend.
