When William's army confronted the noble houses, they finally faced opposition.
"How dare you stop us from investigating?! Do you know the consequences of your actions?!" William roared at the nobles who had banded together to form a collective resistance.
The leader of the nobles was the representative sent by the Grand Duke so even the officials of Copperglade felt nervous upon facing him.
"Sir William, there might be a misunderstanding somewhere. Why don't we let the Grand Duke's people go? I don't think they would do anything to harm Her Highness. After all, Her Highness is the Grand Duke's niece."
An official whispered to William, but the latter sneered in response.
He had already been made aware of the things that happened in the Crimson Tower. Based on the information he received, the Grand Duke's people were involved with the illegal auctioning of barbarians! So how could William allow them to leave?
