The William family's move was swifter than anyone had imagined; by that same evening, Kodi had already returned to the manor with the invitation.
Since Lynn was openly still at Yiyeta Harbor, all royal city affairs were entrusted to Laud and Orlando.
"Now that the church has posts set up at every entrance of the royal city, it's inconvenient for Lord Odoran to go, so, Mr. Laud, please accompany me yourself!" Kodi's reason was so valid that it was impossible to refuse.
"In that case, let's go!" Laud snorted, picked up his protective walking stick, and felt the ring in his hand; alone, he followed William's subordinate and boarded the carriage.
Laud's courage to attend the meeting alone secretly impressed Kodi who wished he didn't have to oppose the great Lord Lynn if possible.
It's just a pity that these wizards simply couldn't compete with the church; they were doomed to perish eventually, and Lord William had indeed set his heart on turning to the church's embrace.
