At the same time, at Duke Constantine's mansion.
There were three official archduke families in the Holy Dragon Kingdom, namely the Campbells, the Saint Laurents, and the Ptolemys. The heads of those three families all had their titles conferred by the King and medals that symbolized their position. Even though Constantine was also called a duke, he was only a quasi-duke. His title was much different compared to the three. There were a few quasi-dukes like him in the royal city.
As a quasi-duke, Constantine had some power in the capital. He mainly engaged in the food trade and gained many customers in the capital. His family's trade included salt that the ordinary people ate and high-tier magical beast meat for the noblemen. They even provided food for the army.
The head of the family, Constantine Romani, was strolling in the garden, reading a document in his hand.
