Aubrey immediately replied, "There's no issue with this. According to the Federal Conference's rules, I can take over as city lord if Rebecca goes missing or dies. However, the matter of the army will still need to be arranged by Lady Adeline."
Aubrey spoke in a matter-of-fact manner, but the rest of the Faceless down below...
were practically staring wide-eyed.
No one expected that the biggest freeloader in the whole city would actually be right beside them.
Moreover, he has always been waiting for the opportunity to replace Rebecca.
Adeline was quite satisfied with everyone's reaction; that's the exact situation she wanted to see.
She said to everyone below, "I naturally have a plan for the army. This time, everyone just needs to follow my plan."
"Lady Adeline, what do we need to do?" someone asked.
They were the Faceless; they had no chance to choose.
Adeline continued, "Before that, I need the information of one person, and the more detailed, the better."
