William's eyes shone brightly, and his face showed how excited he was about what was going to happen.
And seeing this look made Thomas feel quite bad and restless.
"Tell me, there are those alchemists here, then how about artisans? Is there any gathering of them?"
"Well…" Thomas didn't get William's intentions, "artisans aren't in a better way than alchemists. And that's because of what Alfred said before."
William got what Thomas wanted to say. People coming here already had their own supplies from the places they came from. Not to mention those who were rich enough got higher grade stuff from places that were much better than here.
Comparing a fort with the capital of a kingdom? That was indeed quite unfair. And that was why people here didn't get much from this fort. And that was why William decided to act fast.
