Laibak's Recount

Listening to the shabby man who introduced himself as Laibak recount the events of the inn, Alexander could not help but feel a tinge of regret for those men.

He felt that the people in that inn had reacted too rashly.

If they had been only a bit more sober, and thought things over more calmly, everything likely would have turned out fine for them.

Even if they did nothing but calmly and politely talk to the two bodyguards, a lot of this could have been avoided. 

In fact, it could have worked out even better than they could have ever hoped for if they had just done what the two bodyguards asked them to do.

Because then Alexander would have likely recruited Laibak for his own spy agency, meaning then they would have had a mole inside the very heart of Zanzan's intelligence services, one whose cover was as solid as one could get, for he would be directly recommended by the boss himself, Alexander.
