Will remained silent.

Instead, he picked up the wine bottle on the table and poured a glass for Janet and himself.

Seeing this, Janet understood immediately.

She continued, "Barnaby and Theodore's armed soldiers total around two thousand.

"In terms of numbers alone, they are indeed more than my Frank Manor.

"But the majority of their armed forces are merely light infantry bearing round shields, longswords, and scimitars; only a few ride horses wielding long spears."

"They don't even have a few sets of decent armor!"

"Under the charge of my Frank Clan cavalry, they would be overturned in a few rounds at most."

"In terms of armed strength, the two combined are no match for my Frank Manor!"

Will nodded slightly, picked up the wine glass on the table, and downed its contents in one gulp.

Seeing Will unmoved, Janet slightly furrowed her brow.

She suddenly realized, "Perhaps, Lord Will doesn't care about all these."

"Then I won't waste any more words."

"Let's speak of the final allocation of benefits!"

Just as Janet said those words, Will immediately looked at her.

Waiting for her to continue speaking.

Janet went on, "As long as Lord Will is willing to join our side at Frank Manor."

"There is no need for Lord Will to dispatch a single soldier."

"After victory, you can choose freely between either Theodore's manor or Barnaby Manor!"

Janet noticed Will's eyes visibly brighten.

But soon, he disguised it.

Only then did Will finally break his silence.

"Lady Janet, are you so confident in wiping out the two manor lords in one fell swoop?"

Janet's words dripped with confidence, "Certainly!"

Not only because the strength of Frank Manor far surpasses the several other manors.

But also because there is Joao leading five hundred chain armor cavalry in a charge.

The heavy cavalry gives her courage.

Will hesitated for a few seconds and said, "Lady Janet, as thanks for inviting me to drink, I'll share some intelligence with you."

"Not only Frank Manor has heavy cavalry."

"Other manors are also raising heavy cavalry!"

"As for the number, that I do not know."

As he spoke.

Will slowly stood up from the long chair.

He bowed slightly to Janet, glanced at the snowy white, and said, "Thank you, Lady Janet, for the invitation."

Finished speaking.

Will took strides towards the exit.

Janet's eyes narrowed slightly; her tone shifted from its previous gentleness.

"Lord Will, are you just leaving like this? Should I consider you declining my invitation?"

Will's steps suddenly halted.

He didn't turn around but spoke with his back to Janet behind.

"Lady Janet, this comes unexpectedly. I need to think it over."

Finished speaking.

Without further words, he opened the wooden door in front of him and walked out.

He didn't even glance at Joao standing at the door.

Joao, always standing at the door, naturally heard the entire conversation in the room.

Watching Will descend the stairs, his silhouette disappearing.

Only then did Joao turn around and enter the VIP room.

Stride towards Janet and quietly waited beside her.

Janet's brow remained furrowed.

As if pondering something.

Until a moment later.

Janet spoke to Joao, "Will, Arnold is too greedy."

"Balado suggested dividing Frank Manor into three; he might need it."

"Frank Manor holds the largest tract of land in Morgan Town, but divided into three, it's not even comparable to the already fallen Morrison Manor."

"However!"

"I proposed allowing Will to choose freely between Theodore's and Barnaby Manor without deploying his troops."

"He actually told me he still needs to consider?"

"Does he truly believe, relying on Arnold Manor's armed forces, he can play both ends against the middle among the Three Great Estates?"

Joao slightly lowered his head, asking, "Janet, how would you like me to proceed?"

Janet's eyes, tinged with grey, slightly turned.

She spoke, "I need to meet the Merchant Guild president in Morgan Town, Boer Hansen."

Joao responded at once, "I'll make the arrangements!"

Uttering those cold words, Joao left the VIP room in strides.

Listening to Joao's footsteps fade away.

Janet's face was full of determination.

She didn't know if she could interact and connect through Boer with the mysterious lord behind the city walls.

But she realized that if she didn't take action soon.

Frank Manor would sooner or later be wiped out by the Three Great Lords joining forces!

...

On the other side of Morgan Town.

Every few hours, several carriages entered the town from outside Morgan Town.

Due to being on the outskirts of Morgan Town, it's far less prosperous than the market area of the town.

Few people pay attention to which merchant those carriages loaded with goods belong to!

The key factor is, the distance from Morgan Town to Kakasong City is not far.

It's reasonable for traders to occasionally transport goods to the town for sale.

Behind the walls of a three-story building.

Boer stood among them, his gaze sweeping over the carriages entering the warehouse.

Within those carriage compartments were the grains that Master Lynn needed.

This time.

He found a cross-regional trader in Kakasong City who brought barley from other Empires, arriving at Kakasong City.
