After some consideration, Rein initially leaned towards the third option, which was to assume the position of Governor and Marshal of Fishing Port Town.
The reason was simple: there would be plenty of battles waiting for him there!
And through battle, he could achieve significant advancement.
However, Rein hesitated because he did not yet understand the strength of the enemies Fishing Port Town was facing.
As for why the appointment was primarily for Governor and secondarily for Marshal?
Hamilton had mentioned this to Rein during their conversation before.
Generally speaking, the marshals of the empire's small towns are mainly Knights, occasionally they may be Squires or even Knights Bachelor, like Hamilton belongs to the latter category.
But it was quite rare for a Knight Bachelor to serve as a marshal.
And if a Baron were to serve as marshal, it would carry an obvious demotion connotation.
