The Earl's early departure from the royal court masquerade made quite a ripple as many guests were dismayed by the news. Most of them were curious and would like to establish a good relationship with him since he was able to aid the royalty to cover up the funds they were unable to meet. Not only that, the King himself was quite respectful towards the Earl. Thus, earning enough reputation to make all the guests who arrived there as well as some of the royal family members to wonder what kind of man the Earl was.
Currently, in the dining hall where a very long table was set in the center, each guest was seated on their seats and talked in hushed voices. Most already took off their masks, while a few people still wore their upper-half masks.
