"Yes, sir. Can I know what my mission is?"
"Let me congratulate you first, Bryce. I'm not sending you to Buck Town on a mission, but you're going to be the new City Lord of Buck Town. Yes, you're going to participate in the Ruler's Alliance meetings with me in no time."
"What?"
Bryce fell to the ground on his knees. "Sir, I've never had any intentions of surpassing you as City Lord. Please give me a chance to prove myself, Lord George…"
Bryce prostrated himself repeatedly, and George walked up to him to stop him before pulling him to his feet. "You're the man I trust the most, Bryce. You're going to be the City Lord of Buck Town because of a change in the system. Don't be so worried."
"Let me ask you this: how are you going to thank me once you really become the City Lord of Buck Town?"
"I…"
Bryce gritted his teeth. "I would be loyal to you, Lord George, and no one else. I'll do everything and anything you want me to do without a single complaint."
"Good. Now remember this: you're going to give me seventy percent of Buck Town's yearly earnings, and the remaining thirty to Lord Hadirt. No one else can know about this. Do you hear me?"
Bryce nodded meekly. "Yes, sir."
The day passed by in no time, and on the third evening there was a piece of good news in Buck Town: Dalton had been found!
Edmund's men had found Dalton and sent him to the Chris family grounds.
