Ivita had not expected that gaining Maximilian's support would be so simple. She nodded to Maximilian, saying, "Thank you for your support."
"Just as you supported me in the past," Maximilian explained.
Maximilian said to Ivita, "The current situation is that the Compulsion Viscount has besieged Ambros City, and now many people are speculating about the outcome."
"My Lord, if you wish to stop more killing, you should go there."
Ivita shook her head and said, "Whatever the outcome, I will not support either side this time."
"Only one person can control the order here."
"Whether it's the nobles falling or the city factions falling, it's what I need."
"Therefore, letting them continue to war suits my interests. Conversely, getting involved in their affairs now would be disadvantageous for me."
