Roger spoke up after the moment of long silence, "What kind of trade are you thinking of?"
Yes!
"The trade of intellect."
"What?"
"I am happy that Your Majesty is willing to consider the trade but before that there is one matter that was primarily on my mind." Dad said, I could feel the excitement in his voice.
"And what was it?"
"A Magic Gate that connects Mordino with Sestia."
Another moment of silence followed by and I heard a sigh.
"Arthur, I guess you are drunk."
"Pardon, what?"
"To establish a Magic Gate we will need the Mage's Tower to be on board with this plan and as far as I know, they will demand a high price to even consider that thing."
"That's understandable, Your Majesty but you don't have to worry about them. Your Imperial order is enough, I shall handle the rest."
I could feel the confidence in my father's voice and I was tempted to give him an applause.
"You will?"
