Outside the mansion, the count finally made his arrival, though the servant and maids seemed less enthusiastic about welcoming him.
Dismounting from his horse, he quickly realized they were in yet another unfamiliar place, while the soldiers observed that the mansion had an unsettling emptiness to it.
"Count, it seems the young master has taken on the role of a philanderer—just look at how the maids are flocking to him!" one of the soldiers laughed, playfully resting his hands on his head.
His tone was light and carefree, clearly unaware of the tense atmosphere surrounding him.
The other soldiers shot him disapproving glares, silently judging who had dared to question their young master's character as they began to approach him.
"Take this guy down!" a couple of soldiers shouted out, lunging at him with laughter mixed with mock outrage.
