"But this is Campbell Duchy's territory, and it's the heartland of the Duchy. No bandit would dare attack the Campbell family's caravan, would they?" Princess Erin said with a confident smile, her tone composed and assured.
Her confidence was not without reason.
The Ryan Kingdom is known as the Land of Knights, and as for the Campbell Duchy, which holds onto its sovereignty tightly, it goes without saying. The task of reclaiming a piece of the northeastern shore of the Vortex Sea from the Lizardmen would have been insurmountable for anyone lacking ample martial virtue.
Wandering thieves cannot survive on the Campbell Duchy's land, let alone stand against her personal guard.
Looking at Erin's face brimming with confidence, Theresa's lips curled into a helpless smile.
She wanted to say that wasn't necessarily true.
Not all bandits are true bandits; some are assassins disguised as such.
