Furni and Hans left the palace.
They knew that the guard's words reflected His Majesty's attitude.
If they continue to linger at the palace gates, they will only be the ones who lose face.
“Furney, His Majesty’s attitude clearly shows favoritism towards the Grey family.”
Inside the carriage, Hans spoke to Furni in a deep voice.
Furney nodded: "Yes, it's clear from His Majesty's curfew in the royal city yesterday that His Majesty and the Gray family are in cahoots."
“My spies also saw that when Renn left, he had several boxes of treasures sent into the palace.”
"It would be strange if you even saw us now."
Hans looked worried: "What can we do? If His Majesty doesn't help us, we have no way to compete with the Grey family."
“Each of the Lion Knights, the Golden Lion Knights, or the Crown Guard Knights alone is more than your and my families can withstand.”
Compared to Hans's needless worries, Furni seemed less anxious.
Furney laughed and said, "Count Hans, don't be so anxious. I don't think the Grey family would target our families."
Upon hearing this, Hans immediately raised his head and stared at Furni, saying:
Why does Count Furney say that?
Funi said, "First of all, His Majesty's curfew will only last for one day and will not last long."
"Therefore, I suspect that the Grey family no longer has any targets in the royal city."
"After all, Renn has already left with the Knights. If he had any other targets in the royal city, he would have wiped them out along with the Knights long ago."
"Once today is over and the curfew is lifted, does that mean Renn is going to come and kill us, even if it means facing the civilians in the royal city?"
Hans's furrowed brows gradually relaxed after being nudged by Furni.
“Count Furni is right.”
Furney added.
"Although my Collins family has taken advantage of the Gray family in the past."
"But in the end, no wicked methods were used, and there was no direct conflict with the Gray family."
"I will visit the Gray family with generous gifts later."
"Doesn't that kid Renn like beautiful women? I'll bring a few more, lower my attitude and say some nice things, and Renn might not necessarily be at odds with the Collins family."
Hans nodded in agreement: "Very well, Count Furni has a brilliant strategy. Please be sure to include me."
“My Diaz family is similar to yours; we are not at the point of being irreconcilably at odds with the Gray family.”
After saying that, he asked again, "Should we go back to our clan or the Alliance now?"
After a moment of silence, Furney said, "Let's go back to the league first. After all, the two of us have some say in the league."
"Since our family is currently out of danger, why don't we two take advantage of the chaos within the alliance?"
Upon hearing this, Hans and the other man exchanged a glance, and simultaneously revealed sly smiles.
“Count Furney is truly wicked, but I find it quite good.”
"Hahaha!" The two looked at each other and laughed.
...
Ding ding ding—
"Enter."
Upon hearing the knock on the door, Fred exited his chain repair state and spoke.
Ryan pushed open the door and walked into the room from the outside.
Fred gave a faint, mocking smile: "Oh? So you finally know to knock?"
Renn's face immediately fell. "Hmph! I won't bother with you since you're still injured."
Ford chuckled, his expression turning slightly serious, and asked, "Is the matter with the Payton family over?"
Ryan stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, nodding with his back to Ford.
"Hmm, wouldn't it be a piece of cake for me to take down the Payton family?"
