Chapter 480: Sit Properly
Watching the scenery as they passed by, it was evident that Olivier was a prosperous duchy. Duke Olivier and those before him had managed it well.
Yet, in the future, if Sonia and the Head Butler were not removed from power, this duchy would fall to ruin.
It was why in her past life, with Arabella’s support, Dimo took back the duchy from Sonia. He didn’t want the hard work of his parents to simply be laid to waste.
However, Dimo was not interested in ruling Olivier because of all the experiences he went through. And most especially, the people he cherished the most were already long gone. Thus, he let his other relatives rule it instead.
. . .
Duke Olivier had assigned knights to guard the road they would pass on.
There were knights standing guard every meter on either side of the road to prevent anything or anyone from hindering their passage.
This showed that Olivier was a powerhouse. They had a lot of knights. Enough to go to war with another kingdom all on their own.
After all, Olivier was once not a part of Loranne but a kingdom of their own. They lost in a war with Loranne and became a vassal duchy of the kingdom.
Arabella heard from the people’s thoughts that they were curious and alarmed as to who was visiting the duchy for the Duke himself to welcome them and lead them to the castle. Especially with the knights having to guard either side of the road.
The people thought it was royalty from Loranne for them to be welcomed on such a grand scale.
