Basque City.
The Earl's Mansion.
Count Grita was enthusiastically entertaining the Allos family.
When the family of Duge, who had been banished by Duke Linqi, was passing through his territory, they were intercepted by him, but he did not send the Allos family back to the earl's mansion.
"Viscount Allos, what Martial Spirit did Holley awaken to that failed?" Count Grita raised his glass to Vels Aros, smiling as he asked.
"My lord, my noble rank has already been stripped by Duke Linqi," Vels replied with trepidation, rapidly pondering Count Grita's intentions.
Owing to Holley's troubles during their banishment, they faced countless difficulties and cold receptions, with no one willing to lend them a helping hand.
Being suddenly entertained by Count Grita while passing through his territory left him both flattered and puzzled.
Everything their family had managed was crumbling apart; he was valueless at this point.
