Roman furrowed his brow slightly.
"Would your father, Selin, who is on good terms with the Oak Grand Duke, also fear the Fury Grand Duke?"
Selin was a commercial councilor, essentially a merchant of noble status.
When a merchant of the guild grew to a certain extent, they would seek affiliation,
whether with the Church, the nobles, or the King, thus obtaining some formidable guards.
Otherwise, they might encounter a scenario similar to Daken's.
According to Roman, Selin had signed an agreement with the Oak Grand Duke years ago to have the Grand Duke's Conquest Knights guard his merchant caravans in exchange for generous compensation.
Roman was not unfamiliar with this, as the Riptide Family's Duke Domain also had similar merchants coming and going every day.
His brothers and sisters would occasionally partake in guarding these merchant caravans.
