The Dueling Club usually held its activities at the suburban residence of Colonel Bozuhof, whose reputation was quite significant. Winters had heard of this famous playboy and dueling expert from the army ever since he joined up.
In Sea Blue City, where merchants abound, the military salary was nothing to boast about. However, Colonel Bozuhof, an officer who hailed from a wealthy merchant family, had inherited a large fortune, which allowed him to indulge in his hobbies lavishly.
Because of his warm-hearted nature and superior swordsmanship... and a generous inheritance, Colonel Bozuhof became the manager and organizer of the Dueling Club, and he generously provided his suburban residence as a venue for its activities.
It was he who had provided a partially false list to Major Moritz, forcing Winters to replace the two officers to "retrieve" the real list.
