Inside the door.
Richard looked at Rose.
Rose, with a tense face, swallowed and plucked up the courage to say, "This is my... my last warning to you, don't try to do anything to me, or you..."
"Don't misunderstand," Richard interrupted Rose, "I pulled you in here just to ask you for a favor."
"Huh? A favor?"
"Yes, a favor. The Kingdom of Black Holy Mountain where you're from, it's a remnant of the Black Spirit Empire, right?" Richard asked.
"Yeah, what about it?" Rose still asked in a guarded tone after hearing Richard's words.
"Since that's the case, you should be quite familiar with some of the things from the former Black Spirit Empire, shouldn't you? I'm not talking about anything secretive, but rather the more popular, common things. Things like culture, language, and customs. After all, your kingdom was inherited from the Black Spirit Empire, so they should be similar, right?"
"So what if they are?" Rose continued to be wary.
