When the Lagrange surname appeared, everyone knew that the Empire's legacy still remained! The Human Emperor's blood still flowed in this world!
"Your Lordship, look ahead! Things may not be as bad as you think!" Caslo smiled at them. He could more or less guess why Marquis Al-Teglang-Franz had changed his attitude. After all, the Franz Family was loyal to the royal house—or, more precisely, to the name Lagrange! Roland, as a branch of the royal family, was not someone Marquis Al-Teglang-Franz found difficult to accept.
Though the Franz Family had not been born with Roland, they had spent their entire lives building roads to Rome! The royal house was the foundation of their survival! Unlike those nobles who held actual fiefs or real authority, the hereditary title of Court Marquis might sound impressive, but its ability to withstand risk was not even comparable to that of a baron with real power! It was even less comparable to a Border Baron! Though the Morland Family, as a Border Baron with real authority, was not favored by the Emperor, that did not stop it from possessing powerful military deterrence! Once separated from the royal house, the Franz Family was destined to decline... That was why Marquis Al-Teglang-Franz had changed his attitude. After all, no member of the Lagrange Family disliked the Franz Family!
"I think you have convinced me!" Marquis Al-Teglang-Franz smiled kindly at Caslo, already secretly considering how to gather some useful information.
"Your Highness, if you have no objections, you may lead the party and depart! If you are lucky, you should reach the Redwater River in about seven sunsets!" Caslo calculated before speaking to Grand Duke Ocrean Yaso. They could choose to take the plains between Erebor and the Iron Hills, but that would require a considerable detour!
