Most importantly, the Gilded Kingdom had once sent people to talk to the Cartia Family in a bid to get them to give up one of the magical metal mines that they had. However, as usual, the miserly people of the Gilded Kingdom offered an extremely low price, and the deal eventually fell through.
Hence, in Sandev's opinion, the Gilded Kingdom had to have sent that army to target the Cartia Family. They probably would take away everything belonging to the Cartia Family and even annihilate them. Compared to the Malfa Family, the Cartia Family was slightly inferior, and there were even very few Legendary powerhouses. They could not withstand the attacks of the Gilded Kingdom at all.
However, despite Sandev's painstaking efforts to plead with them, only the leaders of a few neighboring forces of the Cartia Family helped to speak up for them, while the rest remained unmoved.
