Sylvester pressed more on the chest of the Archpriest and forced him to say it. "What is it?" 

"His talents, my Lord! We found out Dungface has the talent of a… Diamond Knight! Second-highest Knightley talent! This is God's gift! This town can have so much support from the Holy Land if he remains here and learns under me!"
