A moment ago.
The Gem Lord was sitting in front of Noel with a gentle smile on his face. "Say, what do you think if I retire in this place? I don't really need the mine. Just give me enough materials and money to do my research, and I'm set."
Noel raised his eyebrows. The Gem Lord was basically saying that he wanted to serve him. Originally, the transaction was there to get his help, but it seemed that the Gem Lord had seen the future of the Ardagan family and decided to side with them.
The Gem Lord was the eldest among the elders in the Tower Association. His strength and his knowledge were among the greatest.
