Abel's confidence did not settle Burbridge's worry. All he knew was that Abel was an extremely powerful and well-known wizard.
The Duchy of Carmel only had one Head Commander, and his family was not too wealthy. Even with Head Commander Bodley's help, their power would only be equal to other duchies at best.
Burbridge didn't know there were 4 griffin head commanders and countless knights developing at immense speed in Harvest City.
However, he knew one thing: as long as Abel was present, no one would mess with the Duchy of Carmel.
"Your Majesty, the Duchy of Thunder, the Duchy of Koror, and the Duchy of Larka offered large amounts of wealth to purchase our crops. Since you are the one in charge of the crops inventory, the deal still had not been settled!" Burbridge reported again.
"Cut off our connection to other duchies. Tell them I went to a retreat. In the next few years, we will not interact with any other Duchies." Abel lowered his voice.
