"Thank you for the information you provided, Duchess."
"I am truly helped by this," I said while giving a respectful thanks to the Duchess by bowing my head to her.
Sraatt...
The Duchess opened her hand fan wide again and relaxed after chatting with me.
In the case that I am currently experiencing, I have understood the common thread that made several noble families around Marquess Rommel's territory have sided with the opposition faction.
It was their act of survival that was quite right if they followed the hot conflict political phase because the war season between nobles was coming. By joining a faction that supported the opposition, they had a chance to retain their noble title without having to lose territory or have their noble titles lowered after the war season between nobles took place.
This condition made me feel grateful to the Duchess after leaking some information that was only known by the head of the family or people who were interested.
