I'm back here again.
Rhode was dazzled by the stunning city as he admired it through the chariot window. He knew what troubles he would be facing in Golden City and didn't bring anyone with him to avoid unnecessary conflicts. However, Rhode was never battling alone as a Spirit Swordsman.
Rhode received plenty of information regarding Golden City from Marlene before he left the Fortress. Confusion broke out in the entire Golden City after the diplomatic group from the Country of Light's Parliament arrived. All the shady characters began to reveal themselves with their own schemes. According to Marlene, the diplomatic group from the Country of Light's Parliament was somewhat overbearing after they arrived and there was even a malicious rumor spreading amongst the nobility: the diplomatic group would dismiss Lydia from her rank as a Duchess.
