Chapter 06….
Greed Arc
Still Not Enough!
__《Greed Castle》__
“Not enough…”
King Cabalt muttered as he looked at a list on the fine desk… In the end, only 2,300 people had gathered… Still short by 700.
“It can’t be helped… I’ll have to use the church and carry out that plan.”
Saying this, King Cabalt looked around the room.
This was his hobby room, neatly lined with his collection of vases and weapons.
“……”
The king tapped twice with his fingertip on the underside of the desk. The lights in the room went out, the curtains closed, and the room darkened. An image was projected on the desk.
{ Did you summon me, my king? }
“…Unfortunately, it seems we must put that plan into action…”
{ I see… }
“Take this…”
The king transferred a letter to the priest.
{ And this is? }
“An invitation to my castle… Give it to Kiel’s wife in your village.”
{ …My king, before God there are no ranks; all are equal— }
“If you make an enemy of that man, everything will fall apart.”
{ …… }
“You will do it, won’t you?”
{ Understood. }
“Carry out the plan only after Kiel’s wife and daughter leave the village.”
Hearing this, the priest nodded and cut the connection.
“…This too… is for my daughter’s sake…”
