Roland found it absurd. "This is the capital, and you are a princess. Yet you think your safety is not guaranteed here?"
While walking, Evelyn put on a bitter smile. "The royal family is not as powerful as you think. My father is not a pope that controls everything. Essentially, we're just a bigger noble family. Many other grand nobles are as powerful as us, and too many forces in the capital are malicious."
Evelyn was speaking the truth. It was true that the royal family did not have absolute power.
For example, the Association of Mages even dared to kidnap the queen.
So, it was not too unbelievable that someone poisoned a princess or set up an ambush against another one.
"Fine." Roland turned on the quest menu after receiving the notification of a new quest.
He checked the quest, only to discover that it was a green one.
Quest received: Escort Princess Evelyn Hollevin to the royal palace.
