Amid the chaotic streets, Ivita had no intention of lending a hand to Lady Alice and the rest of the noble ladies.
Indeed, rescuing nearly all the noble ladies of Parviga would be a grand gesture that could win people's favor.
But in reality, besides his iron business, Ivita doesn't have any particular needs in Parviga.
After saving those people, he wouldn't be able to turn their goodwill into his own gains in a timely manner. Additionally, goodwill is something vague and fleeting.
Moreover, one would be courting death if they ventured to help when they didn't even know who their adversaries were or the depths of the waters they were stepping into.
He didn't even know who employed the Small Brotherhood of Trustworthiness, so there was no way he could intervene and disrupt their plans.
He came here strictly for business.
Lolita was hiding behind Ivita. "Sir, should we leave?" she asked.
Ivita shook his head. "There's a stampede happening on the streets."
