Mia and company followed Lambert into the manor.

“Well, come in please, you are very welcome. Although it’s not my house.”

Lambert spoke with an air of nonchalance and walks with the elegant stride of a noble.

“Hmmm, the office should be here on the back…”

Inside a magnificent door was a luxurious room that was more than opulent enough to be called the mayor’s office. A simple chandelier was hanging on the ceiling but it was made of highly transparent crystal that dazzled from the light of the outside.

“They got all those taxes from us and this is what they spent it on?”

After shrugging in dismay, Lambert arrogantly sat down on the mayor’s chair in front of the office desk.

“It’s probably expensive, but it’s not very comfortable to sit in.”

“Brother! Enough of this! What’s the point of all of this? What will this accomplish?”

“Shut up, Lynsha. I’m not going to talk about politics with you, a woman. It’s futile.”

Lambert leaned farther into his chair that he was looking down at Lynsha from his nose.

That reminds me. The Kingdom of Remno is very male-dominated where women don’t have a place.

Mia’s opinion of Lambert just plummeted. Well, it wasn’t that high in the first place anyway.

“I’m more interested in these people you have brought.”

Lambert stared at Mia and Sion’s faces in turn, then smiled softly.

“Where are my manners. Sit down. Relax for the time being. Let’s prepare some tea and sweets for you.”

My! Tea and sweets! This person knows how to welcome his guests!

Mia’s favourability of Lambert just suddenly improved. Well only a little. It put him above the likes of the Prince… whatever Abel’s brother’s name was. But Lambert’s likability was still below the Diamond Legion. After all, Mia likes big men.

“Thank you for your hospitality. But I believe we are against the clock so if you can tell me your side of the story, it would be more appreciated.”

Sion glares at Lambert without sitting on the guests’ couch. There is no sign of laxity in his alertness at observing Lambert. While on the other hand, Mia was already sitting on the couch. Leaning on the backrest and completely relaxed! However, just like Sion, there was no laxity on her gaze. Her line of sight was sharpened so as not to miss the arrival of the tea and sweets from the door. Like Sion, she was alert like a predator.

“Oh, I guess what I heard was true. As expected, His Royal Highness Sion Sol Sunkland can indeed strike fear into the hearts of his enemies with a single look!”

Lambert applauded jokingly and said in a casual tone. Lynsha and others who were listening to the conversation were astonished. But the prince remained calm.

“So the rumor was indeed true that the great prince can be reckless. Reckless enough to march unguarded to place like this by himself.”

“So you knew then?”

“Of course. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have allowed you to keep your sword.”

Lambert says while still sitting in a relaxed manner.

“I see. I was wondering if you just deemed us harmless being kids.”

Sion lightly touched the handle of the sword and gave Lambert a piercing gaze.

“So? Why did you bring us here? We are said to be the danger to the revolution? What do you want from us?”

“Of course, I have my reason. To be honest, we’re looking for help from your country, Prince of the Kingdom of Sunkland. After all, as you have witnessed, we’re just not strong enough.”

“You make it sound so easy but what you are asking is military intervention. It is not as simple as rallying a rabble.”

“That is a statement that is not like His Royal Highness Sion, who values justice and fairness. What do you think of this country’s suffering? And a sensible politician who values the people is being imprisoned. Heavy taxes are levied on the people. Will you overlook the tyranny of the royal family?”

In fact, Sion has not seen the plight of the people themselves. But if the king has put his loyal vassal to prison, then it is something that he certainly cannot overlook.

“If my country does support the side of the rebels, I don’t think there is any guarantee that you will be able to hold up until help arrives.”

Lambert smiled at Sion’s words.

“This is located halfway between the royal capital and Count Donovan’s territory. I’m sure you can now understand the strategic importance of this place…”

“Are you going to isolate the Diamond Legion from the royal capital by hitting them logistically?”

Sion thought while folding his arms.

Of course, this is still in the Kingdom of Remno. It is possible to receive supply from the surroundings even if it is separated from the royal capital. However, it will take time to make such arrangements. This will result in temporary confusion and lowering of the morale of the soldiers. It seemed the revolutionaries led a revolt in this town with the full knowledge of using its strategic importance…

I was under the impression that they were just a disorganized militia. Was I wrong?

Alarm bells were ringing off Sion’s head.

Frontman and firebrand, huh? I can’t say anything of certainty yet. He seems to be a man who knows what he is doing. I can’t underestimate him.

In Sion’s head, the warning bells kept on ringing loudly.

On the other hand, what was on Mia’s head…

My! Cookies! It’s also finely crafted!

She was inwardly applauding the arrival of her long-awaited sweets. She popped one into her mouth before anyone else can say anything. She held her cheeks in sensuous pleasure as the sweetness of the cookies melt within her mouth.

Impressed by how good the cookies were, Mia looked towards Lambert.

He seems to be a man who knows what he is doing. I can’t underestimate him.

Curiously, Mia and Sion reach the same conclusion.
