Upon hearing the words of Duke Wester, Moon Guardian Duke smiled faintly, saying,
"Duke, this is the internal affair of the Falling Star Kingdom. As the New Moon Special Envoy, it's not appropriate for me to comment."
"Hahaha, Envoy, you are too cautious! This is no longer just a matter for the Falling Star Kingdom alone. Don't forget, Charlotte de Castel is also a vassal of the New Moon Kingdom! As the New Moon Special Envoy, you surely wouldn't want to see the two kingdoms plunged into war again, would you?"
Duke Wester laughed heartily.
And after laughing, he added meaningfully,
"Envoy, the proposal I previously made to you is still valid. Should you wish, the doors of the Duke Mansion are always open to you."
Watching Duke Wester, who as Military Chief so openly extended an invitation to a foreign envoy, Count Stafford's expression grew increasingly unsightly.
"Duke, please be mindful of your status and position!"
He said coldly.
But clearly, Duke Wester was not afraid.
