After spending that night with Charlotte, Regent Princess Astrid left the frontlines at White Maple Town, heading for the luxurious estate in Losterling City to conduct logistical inspections and manage military supplies.
Of course, while that was the official reason, the underlying logic was that with a major battle imminent, Astrid, as a crucial imperial princess, absolutely could not remain on the frontlines facing what would likely become a clash of Arcanist mages.
Her strength was only that of a Magnus, and she would inevitably become a primary target on the battlefield. Not only would her personal safety be threatened, but the Arcanist mages would also have to divert their attention specifically to protect her, drawbacks far outweigh any benefits.
