Ian had already contacted Viscount Grant before heading back to South Ridge to request a group of men to escort the caravan he was sending to Leyan Territory.
The Viscount wasn't a fool; he had long noticed the relationship between Scott and Ian, so he took advantage of the situation and sent his own trusted people that Ian had trained.
However, the Hillsman rebellion had occurred just one week ago, and the originally planned manpower was definitely not enough, so the Viscount wondered if he should send some more men.
It was quite normal for nobles to lend troops to each other, and it wasn't considered a big deal. Although Ian wasn't a noble yet, he had already reached the Second Energy Level - it was only a matter of time.
"No need, my lord, I have it all figured out."
