They returned to Windsor's office when they left the mysterious building.
Richard was in a different mood as he sat down.
He did not expect to establish such a close relationship with this mysterious force when he was only here to inquire about the Crimson Moon.
However, this trip was not in vain.
He had already achieved half his uttermost goal; to kill the kobold god.
Next, he had to wait until December 28th, when the Crimson Moon rose into the sky.
It was unrealistic to slay the kobold god with his current methods.
Using the Crimson Moon to achieve his goal was the best choice.
As for the ultimate goal of the Crimson Moon, it was to kill all the gods.
He got interested, but not as strongly as Windsor.
He was more concerned about the status of Twilight City and the benefits it could gain from this change.
Richard cleared the partnership with Windsor–each side would get what they needed.
Windsor needed him to help Peim retrieve his heart. The old man lost his heart and wanted to rope him in to join the Crimson Moon.
As for him, he needed to maintain close contact and have more control over the new expansion pack. At the same time, he needed to use the hands of the Crimson Moon to eliminate the threat of the kobold god.
Whether the relationship between the two sides would improve or drift apart in the future would depend on the development of the situation.
Richard was very rational. An individual could be selfless, but a group would put their interests first.
He had to be confident enough to bet everything as the ruler of Twilight City.
Richard said slowly.
"Chairman Windsor, can I see Mr. Peim again?"
Windsor shook his head.
"Teacher Peim has returned to the Red Dragon General Store."
As he spoke, he hesitated.
"Now, he can't see outsiders anymore. But I can bring you there if you have something important."
Richard shook his head.
Since the other party had already said so, what else could he say?
"It's nothing serious. I just want to visit Mr. Peim. I won't disturb him if it's not suitable now."
He also stood as he spoke.
"I won't let anyone else know about today's conversation. The Violet Merchant Association Chamber of Commerce still has many things to deal with."
"I'll visit you when I'm free."
Windsor nodded. Suddenly, as if she had thought of something, and waved her hand. A gem that seemed to flow with quicksand appeared in her hand.
She handed it to him with some reluctance after she momentarily rubbed it.
"This gemstone is a treasure that I accidentally obtained previously. You are interested in the power of yellow sand, so perhaps it can help you."
Richard reached out to take it. He felt the boundless energy of yellow sand surge inside.
At this moment, his body began to cheer.
His interest instantly soared.
He opened the attribute panel with intense curiosity.
[Heart of Quicksand]
[Level: Special]
[1. In the desert, mana recovery speed increases by 100%; 2. Able to guide and discover other life forms that possess the power of yellow sand.]
[Description: A gemstone condensed in the center of the desert. It possesses the boundless power of yellow sand.]
Richard's eyes lit up when he saw the attributes.
That was a good item. Richard had just learned about the origin of the power of yellow sand from Windsor and planned to set up a trap in this area. Now, this treasure had delivered itself to his doorstep.
It was sending charcoal in the snow.
"This treasure is useful to me. Chairman Windsor, thank you for your generosity."
Windsor smiled.
"One discovered this treasure in a sandstorm more than ten years ago. It has accompanied me for a long time.
"I don't need it usually. I'll let it play its true role if I give it to you."
Who would be willing to give away such a unique treasure without a heart?
Richard thanked her, turned around, and left the Phoenix-Tail Flower Chamber of Commerce.
Windsor walked to the French window and looked at half of Solan City after Richard left.
There was no movement for a long time.
A muffled voice came from behind.
"Your Highness, did we let the Grace Mainland Overlord know too much?"
Windsor didn't turn around. She just stared out the window in a daze. It was as if she weren't interested in the sound behind her.
She turned his head after a long time.
A figure draped in a black cloak appeared in her line of sight. Its high nose bridge and crimson eyes carried a chill and made one's heart palpitate.
"Is it a lot?"
Windsor smiled.
"I want to see how far this Grace Mainland Overlord can go.
"My intuition tells me… We can trust that overlord."
The other party's expression momentarily froze when he heard her intuition.
Then, he lowered his head deeply and said in the most respectful tone.
"Lady Crimson, you will never, ever go wrong..."
