บท 96: The Unbelievers 3

"Young Duchess please mind your steps…" the General warned her as she took a step out of the carriage. It was already the dead of the night and the surroundings were already a bit dark.

"Those people— " she looked at the people camping outside of the large gates. She was certain that they were not soldiers as they were too skinny. She even spotted a pregnant woman carrying a skinny child.

"Ah… unbelievers."

"Unbelievers?" Rosalind's expression changed. Unbelievers were people who did not believe in the Goddess. Many empires and kingdoms accept them, but the citizens usually do not treat them well simply because they have different beliefs. "And you are camping with them?"

"Young Duchess, this is the only place where the Empire allowed camps. If one would camp on the other side of the gates, soldiers would arrest them and punish them according to the laws of the Empire." The General calmly said while staring at her face.
