His Hidden Privileges

While the St. Claire's had chosen to stay in their fief for a little longer, the same could not be said for the rest.

Marquess Samed with the Tanners, the Zavanths, and even the Kirons had already begun their journey back to Amarthea soon after the Decree had arrived.

Those noble families who stayed in Amarthea and only visited their native fiefs once a year were the ones who were rushing back to the place they called home.

They wished to return to the Capital to resume their daily life there once again and this sentiment, many nobles shared.

Thus, as Rutherford had expected, the routes leading to Amarthea were as congested as ever due to the long lines of carriages traveling on it.

Therefore, his decision of staying put for a few more days was the right one.

Just like the St. Claire's family, another family had also chosen to stay back in their native fief for a little longer.
