Meist County City.
Alonso had not been back from the prison to the estate for long when the butler Michel came up to him with a smiling face and reported,
"Baron, I think you should take a look at this." Michel respectfully handed Alonso a thin stack of documents.
"Oh?" Upon seeing Michel's smiling face, Alonso knew there must be some good news in those documents.
Indeed, after Alonso had received the documents and looked through them briefly, he quickly began to smile and said,
"Is this news accurate?"
"It has been verified and is true! My lord, according to the information, it seems that Baron Norman is determined to engage in a bloody duel with Reine."
"After delivering the declaration of a bloody duel to Reine's new residence, Baron Norman immediately submitted an application for a bloody duel to your father, Count Habbs."
