Indeed, that was the case.
Shortly after the order was issued, the Kingdom Nobles gathered in Lutecia began to protest in succession, claiming that such rigorous investigation was a violation of the "Holy Contract," the act of a tyrant, and "unlawful." Some of the Great Nobles even publicly refused to allow the Guard Knights and Church Knights to enter their families.
The Central Council hadn't even started, but the Royal Family and the Nobles had already prematurely become antagonistic.
Especially the Gaston family, this Great Family known for its neutral stance in the Kingdom, this time raised strong protests against the investigation by the Royal Family and the Church. Duke Gaston, the Family Head, even became the leader of the opposition with strength nearing Legendary.
According to Duke Gaston, while condemning evil is important, the rights of the Nobles are also protected by the "Holy Contract," sacred and inviolable.
