\u201cYou don\u2019t have the money? Well, that\u2019s no good. From what I saw, you looked like you had some pretty strong people with you, but anyways \u2015why don\u2019t you head over to the tower south of here? I hear there\u2019s loads of treasure in there. Naturally, the place is swarming with monsters, so no one has ever come back alive, or so I\u2019ve heard.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIf no one\u2019s ever come back alive, how come you know so much about it?\u201d asked Alisa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cEr, well, that\u2019s…\u201d the store owner stumbled on his words.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI\u2019m sure it\u2019s fine, Alisa. Even if we only heard half of it, at least we\u2019ve ascertained that there are monsters there. If we can\u2019t exterminate some monsters, then defeating La Shiec is even more impossible,\u201d asserted Tyrone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What Tyrone said was correct. Alisa and her comrades got directions from the store owner, and once again returned to the southern reaches of the continent. They headed for the tower that jutted out from the rock face.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
