章 34: The Eight Ranked Spirit

Fray, maintaining his composure, replied, "Don't worry; soon enough, I will provide you with the entire project, including plans and method details."

Anass, acknowledging the trust placed in Fray, sighed softly. "I still don't understand. Why did you do it? What's in it for you? This move could bring you more trouble than good."

"Just to strengthen the city. Soon, we'll need every ounce of power we've got," Fray explained calmly.

Anass, his tone serious, countered, "Strengthen the city? Whatever. Can you comprehend the trouble this will bring? The rich families monopolized all the farming lands after the closure of the cursed land. They won't appreciate you restoring one of the biggest farming lands in Iskar territory."
