"Is Aethelwolf here?" Julie Irish asked Duke Baron.
The Duke was a bit surprised when Julie Irish called Aethelwolf by his name in such familiarity. Looking at the veiled woman in front of him, he shook his head and said. "You missed him, Miss Julie, Sir Aethelwolf isn't here anymore. He left a few days ago." He then paused and put on a grave look as he muttered. "I suggest you stay inside the capital for now, Miss Julie. There will be a huge battle soon and this place would be dangerous for you two." He noticed that Julie Irish brought her younger sister with her and found the matter troublesome. These two weren't part of the army, but he couldn't tell them to fuck off because of their important status so he could only politely ask for them to leave.
