This made Hesso frown. It almost took him out of immersion, but Misha was quick to add a bit more scent. Still, the annoyance was palpable. "Valov? Why do you ask about those jerks?"
Misha blinked innocently. "I keep hearing about our Voumi Town compared to them," she said, her tone indignant. "I heard that when Valov had been a town for a few decades, they had already upgraded to Level 2. Meanwhile, Voumi…"
In that same time frame, Voumi Town was not close to upgrading at all.
Unsurprisingly, this triggered Hesso, who slapped the side of his wooden tub, creating a dent.
"What?" he bellowed. "Heh, they're so proud when they only got big because of the backing of Hassen City!"
Misha's eyebrows rose, extending her arms to touch his flabby face. He looked at her beautiful face in fascination.
"Can you tell me more? So I know what to answer those naysayers."
