When we arrived at the inn that had been prepared for us, we couldn't help being surprised.
Because it was clear by the decorations of this inn that this was an inn that catered to nobles. However, this inn didn't just cater to any nobles, this inn clearly catered to high ranking nobles.
Someone at my level of nobility shouldn't be living in a place like this.
But this was the inn that the messenger had brought us to.
When I asked about this, the messenger said, "The duke has already taken the time to help you book a room here and has set up everything. He has also indicated that he would pay for your stay, so there's no need for your lordship to worry about anything while you're here."
Though this sounded like it was disdain, it was said with perfect respect, so there was nothing to nitpick about this.
No matter how one looked at it, it seemed like the duke was showing him absolute respect.
But why?
