71 – The Camp

Karl showed his nobility insignia to a soldier guarding the army camp with many red flags with dragon heads.

"I just wanted to have a look." The mayor of Silkdale city smiled. "I don't usually see a camp like this."

"Please come in, sir!" The soldier tapped his spear to the ground.

"Thanks." Karl smiled and put some coins into the soldier's pocket.

The mayor then entered the camp area, followed by two bodyguards.

"Is it okay for you to come here?" Charlia, who hugged Karl's hand, whispered after they were a bit away from that soldier.

Karl smiled even more. "If I do it myself, people will believe more if I persuade them. My position as a noble has its own advantages."

"But, still, this is reckless."

Karl waved to several soldiers who were preparing a bonfire. "Don't stop. I just wanted to have a look."

The mayor continued to walk between the tents and looked around. Occasionally he greeted and chatted with some of the soldiers.
