"I understand," Leon nodded.
It turned out that the overpowering son of the Duke was merely a tool temporarily manipulated by the Princess.
"You understand again?"
The Princess smiled, "But you've driven him away. What if he reneges on his original proposal?"
Leon helplessly replied, "Well, I was hot-headed just now and didn't think that much. May I boldly ask what exactly the proposal between you and him was?"
"He just needs to send troops to help me capture Capeda County, and in return, I will attend his ball after the war and dance with him... Getting a formidable army from the East Territory just for a dance sounds like a good deal," Princess Ines said with feigned pity.
Leon felt somewhat embarrassed.
Proudly driving away an ally felt exhilarating, but he couldn't afford the loss on their part.
