"Of course, I would know about it. I would have to be an idiot to know that you will invite me. I know that you're leaving the capital to go to the territories of the Dukes. I also know that the Vampire King is in the kingdom, and it would be unsafe for you to leave the capital alone, and Rale would not allow you to take the risk. I have known how cautious Rale is. His first suggestion would be to take someone who could keep you even more safe against the Vampire King," High Duke Mila replied as she smiled.
She couldn't help but glance at Rale as she said it, but Rale didn't react and kept his expression neutral. Ryder on the head was nodding his head in praise.
"That's interesting. You're pretty clever to guess that much from a little bit of information. Still, how did you know that I would invite you and not the High Dukes who are considered to be stronger?" Ryder asked again with an amused smile on his face.
