-41- Bold Duke

"Viscount, my servant seems to be having some trouble, please allow me to see what has happened."

Charlotte gracefully bowed to Bruno and then walked towards the grand entrance of the Duke Mansion.

A fair number of nobles had already gathered in front of the Duke Mansion.

Most of them watched Casimodo and Nisi, who was held up by the Starry Knight, with curious, disdainful, or schadenfreude expressions.

A few young nobles who wanted to show off attempted to step forward to help, but were quickly stopped by the elders of their families, who shook their heads and motioned for them to be silent.

After all, in the Bold Duchy, the surname is Bold.

Attending a birthday banquet, naturally, enough respect should be given to the host, even if the host is merely a gatekeeping knight.

Trying to sneak a pet inside was an utterly disrespectful act.

"What's going on?"

Seeing Charlotte approach, the gathered nobles made way for her.
