Glaite had become more discerning too, looking down on those third- and fourth-level wizard towers. But unfortunately, he had no money.
Eugene was somewhat speechless. "A third-level tower is already pretty good. I can't even afford to build a first-level one myself. If Dole weren't refining it for you free of charge, you could forget about it."
Glaite shrugged. "True enough. If you move in, how are we calculating the rent?"
Eugene slapped Glaite on the shoulder. "Damn it, you still want to charge me rent? I'll beat you to death."
Glaite hurriedly dodged aside, and the two immediately began fooling around.
