Chapter 35: Deal!
"Starlily, are you sure you should be telling me all this so openly?" Ethan asked, clearly surprised.
A secret with such massive consequences—shouldn’t it be guarded tightly and never spoken of?
"It’s not a big deal," LoS_Starlily replied, shaking her head. "Besides, I already have a pretty good idea of what you’re planning." She paused for a moment before continuing, "Honestly, this is actually a good thing for us at Legion of Shadows. To be frank, we’re not exactly short on gold, but high-tier units? Now that we desperately need. And it’s not even a secret—everyone knows it..."
Before she could finish, a strong, confident voice rang out from outside the room.
"Starlily is absolutely right! Gold isn’t an issue for Legion of Shadows, but high-tier units? That’s a different story!"
Tap. Tap. Tap.
The sound of hurried footsteps echoed through the hallway, growing louder and closer.
A moment later, with a sharp click, the door swung open.
A towering, broad-shouldered middle-aged man strode in, his face lit up with a friendly smile as he greeted Ethan. "Hello, I’m LoS_Ironfist from Legion of Shadows."
"LoS_Ironfist?"
Ethan raised an eyebrow, visibly surprised.
