Dox looked at Black Earl expectantly.
Black Earl's nostrils flared slightly. Though Dox could not see Black Earl's expression, he somehow felt that Black Earl was looking at him with disdain.
So what if he was being despised? As long as he could sell the tickets, he could endure being despised forever.
Black Earl snorted. "No need."
Dox looked utterly stunned. How could there be no need? Black Earl had clearly lavished praise on the Sunlight Sanctuary just now and seemed eager to try it. Why had he suddenly changed his mind?
Was it only because the mysterious leather scroll had become a semi-mysterious leather scroll?
Black Earl offered no explanation, but Wai beside him understood perfectly well.
His lord did indeed want to test the effects of the Sunlight Sanctuary, but that did not mean he needed to go in personally. It would be the same if Wai went.
Black Earl could replace Wai's bodily senses with his own at any time, so naturally, he could experience everything Wai experienced.
Thus, as long as Wai went in and tried it, it would be equivalent to Black Earl having gone himself. There was no need whatsoever to buy some so-called ticket from Dox. He could simply freeload.
Wai's guess was correct in practical terms. However, Black Earl's true reason for refusing was not limited to that. He simply... suddenly felt a little pity for Dox.
Dox had been utterly frightened by "losing his freedom" and had not sorted out the current situation at all. That was why Angel's words were still leading him around by the nose.
Thinking about it carefully, what kind of logic was it to use the creditor's own things to repay the creditor's debt?
Even if it truly worked, it should have been done in private
