William couldn't help but sit up straight and took a close look at King Noah, "You could go pray at the Temple of Time and Space yourself, that's something only the deities can decide on."
"I used to think that this king was cooperating with the Noble Temple for more benefits," Adrian slumped on the sofa, "but now it seems like he thinks the Noble Temple isn't to be trifled with, and he obeys to avoid risking his life. William, on the other hand, could survive as long as he's shameless enough."
"Even though he's a coward," Fran commented, "at least he's a passable king."
He looked at Hill's disapproving expression, "To many people, slaves aren't considered human. The fact that he cares about the lives of ordinary citizens is already commendable."
"King Noah," William began somberly, "opening up Noah's Northern Border for the Undead to fight demons is helping you clean up your lands. It does not compensate for the trouble you've caused me."
