Marquis Goburnak, a noble from the Gobur Kingdom, sat in his designated seat; he had come to Chang'an to attend the victory parade hosted by the Great Tang Kingdom in Chang'an City.
As a spectator, his seat was indeed quite good, having spent a considerable amount of money on it, naturally offering a better view than the free seats—it was true, he had bought his seat, as Gobur was not among the defeated nations and had to pay a significant amount in reparations.
Of course, those sitting with him had also paid, and there was no reason for anyone to mock the others, thus avoiding much embarrassment.
Beside him sat a slender-looking Duke from the Laines Empire, sporting a pair of exquisitely crafted glasses.
On the other side sat a Dwarf from the Ice Cold Empire, reeking of the potent smell of ale, the amount he had drunk the previous night unknown.
