She didn't argue with him on this. She said in agreement, "I know, and you're right. Which is why I want to offer you another deal."
This piqued his interest, so he said, "What deal is it?"
She replied, saying, "If you help me hold the city for a week, I will give you an opportunity to earn a natural wonder."
Loki thought about her proposal for a while before saying, "Make it three."
But she said, "I can't do that. I can only give you an opportunity to earn the natural wonder. How much you can earn is up to you."
He didn't even know what a natural wonder was or how valuable it was, so he couldn't really be sure if what she was offering was a good deal or not.
But he was sure that what she was asking him wasn't a big deal either. He could easily hold the city for a week, and it would even help him earn grade 4 merit points, since he hadn't earned any since that first rank 4, being that he killed before.
