That was interesting, seeing things from the Lanzeneve perspective. I'm glad that they don't care for the noble-culture of Yurgenschmidt either. I guess this time next week we're jumping in, meeting up with Justus and Eckhart, planning with them, and finishing up pre-battle plans!

They are however massive hyprocits. They complain about how merciless Yurgenschmidt nobles are, while being fully complicit in every single one of the merciless acts they complain about. Not to mention that Leonzio seems to not give too much of a crap about his country as a whole, but just seems to have remaining in the castle and jockying for position among the noble houses as his goals.

They even point out that the royal family is barely even needed for their country anymore and yet they are still perfectly happy to slaughter dozens or even hundreds of people just for their own convenience, while at the same time condemning others.

And here I thought Leonzio had alrady hit rock bottom the previous pre-pub release, but he managed to go even lower.
