章 1004: Breaking Out

"A war against the nine cities?" asked the shadow, shocked – a sentiment shared by Ramiel. "How would this benefit us?"

"We need to either defeat a lord or make one acknowledge us through military merits," said Arthur, smiling as he leaned over the iron bars. "However, a certain knight proposed an idea to unite the second floor."

"Unite the second floor? For what purpose?" asked the shadow again, confused. Arthur smiled and spoke the following words with ease.

"We are turning the second floor into the only residential paradise inside this tower. Once we conquer the tower, many people would choose to stay inside it. The second floor can welcome them."

"…is it okay for him to overhear us?" asked the shadow, turning its eyes toward Ramiel. A pair of beastly eyes glared at him from beneath the hood, but Arthur waved his hand in dismissal.
