"Haha…of course not."
"Not at all, not at all, Lord Ethan."
"Who is in his right mind would cause you such trouble on such an important day."
"Lord Ethan's actions just now really opened our eyes."
Having just witnessed Ethan's terrifying strength, everyone naturally made sure to give him proper respect. Many nobles quickly stepped forward with polite smiles while praising him openly.
Some raised their wine cups while speaking loudly so others could hear.
"Marquise Ethan's strength is truly remarkable."
"Those young men were simply asking for trouble."
"For someone to challenge a hero of the frontier like that was foolish."
For a while the atmosphere became lively again. Conversations restarted, servants poured wine, and soldiers laughed loudly while recounting what they had just seen.
Meanwhile, the three young nobles who had attempted to cause trouble had already become background characters.
No one paid attention to them anymore.
