Vacuse smiled.
"...are you saying you are smart? And that's why you're the lord?"
Well, Vacuse did not mind. Smart people often knew what to do, so Vacuse only shrugged. "Alright then. I will assume that you know that I wish to hold a tournament here. Open the gate for all those in and below the third rank.
"My men will guard the city."
Of course, what Vacuse was saying was, "Don't get in my way." Joryth understood, and he clasped his hand into a bow. "As you wish, my lord."
Vacuse smiled as he looked at him. "You have a very strangely beautiful city, Joryth. It will be even more beautiful after. I hope you can accommodate us for the time being."
The true meaning was, "The city will be returned to you after I'm done with it." Joryth understood, and he bowed. "Thank you, Dragon heir. Welcome to Burnis City!"
