"Actually..."
Marvin spoke word by word, "Your Highness, perhaps it would be better if you and Archbishop Brandon both stayed behind."
"Ah?!" The Second Prince showed a face full of shock, "Nicholas, are you serious? Without Archbishop Brandon, what would you do if you encountered danger?"
"I still have some means of defense." Marvin was very tactful; after all, he couldn't bluntly say that Archbishop Brandon and the Second Prince were burdens!
If he said that, Archbishop Brandon would definitely be curious about where his confidence came from, and then how would he explain?
"While fewer people means lower risk of exposure, I must accompany you," Archbishop Brandon said, "I am the only one who can use magic, and I need to ensure Nicholas's safety. As for His Highness..."
"Archbishop! You don't also want me to stay, do you?"
After exchanging glances with Marvin, Archbishop Brandon sighed, "Then, Your Highness, you shall come along too."
