Alwin teleported them to the top of Mt. Esme first to give everyone a view of the residential area.
Arabella almost made a face when she realized Ferdinand's knights had surrounded the residential area. They were at a reasonable distance but it must have felt different for the Safirans.
And she was right.
Even the Safirans with them were terrified at the sight. They had never encountered Ferdinand's knights for years.
Cordelia had few knights and their armor and weapons were not as grand as the knights from the capital.
Even Bernardo and his fellow mercenaries hadn't encountered a single knight from Riva for years as well.
Arabella learned from their thoughts that it was their first time seeing Riva knights fully clad in the most expensive and durable armor and weapons since the war with Arno years ago.
It was no wonder they were fearful of seeing Ferdinand's knights again for the first time in so long and were wary of them.
