Brian observed through a telescope for a while and asked, ”What e do e arrive at the wharf? How about shocking them first with the naval artillery?”
”It may provoke their lord's hostility” Iron Axe shook his head ”Our s can be put aside According to diplomatic process, we present the documents first”
When the fleet arrived at the suburban wharf, great ture of the moat was pulled up while the soldiers concentrated in line outside the wharf
Brian sent out the documents and received a prompt reply
”He said His Majesty's army is welcomed by the lord, but we are required to send an envoy into the city to explain the conditions He will not open the gate and let us enter until he verifies the cause of the matter,” the soldier reported
”What conditions? We've already explained very clearly in the docuainst the church Does he want to help those church scoundrels escape?”
”Is this also your rule?” Iron Axe turned back and looked at the acco members in the Adviser Group
”Um yes, it should be if they're nobles,” Petrov's Chief bodyguard Trevor answered, ”and it's normal for them to be skeptical, after all, His Majesty, Roland himself hasn’t come and Redwater City is not in his jurisdiction We only need to send an envoy with suitable status to explain clearly”
”Suitable status?”
”Soe family who can earn the lord's trust,” Trevor explained further, ”like the Honeysuckle faion”
Iron Axe, Brian, and Van'er looked at each other with embarrassment Before they’d become the commanders of the First Army, one was of the Sand Nation, the other tere civilians They didn’t kno to properly converse with the nobles, nor did they have a suitable status which could help theate directly with cannons,” Brian got angry and said, ”Once they feel our attack they’ll knohat the right way is”

”What if it's a trick?” Van'er hesitated and said, ”If the Lord of Redwater City colluded with the church long ago, they ht arrest you when you enter and force us to withdraw”
”It's not good for him and you won't co as he is in his right mind, he won't plan such a move on the envoys or he would arouse other noble's antipathy And it can't affect the overall situation On the contrary, if he had colluded with the church, the city would have been blocked in the state of battle There hasn't been any hot oil or bonfire set up in the top of the city yet”
”I'll go with her,” Sir Eltek said, ”I was once a knight and I can take care of her if there's a danger”
”I appreciate your concern, but the Pearl of the Northern Region doesn't need any care,” Edith said with confidence
”Bring a team of soldiers with you” Iron Axe made the final decision ”If we hear a shot, we'll start an attack”
An hour later, the gate was opened slowly, and the drawbridge was lowered
They were stunned when Miss Edith and a chubby roup frohts The man ell-dressed but courted Edith like a henchman from his obvious expression and behavior
