"Aren't you being greedy? I know what you pay for the lease, it is nowhere near the value of two devil merchants," Ezra said with a sneer.
"No, that is not happening. The rate of the lease is what makes the lease of the land on which the clubhouse is built more valuable. If I transfer the lease to someone else then they too will continue to enjoy the dirt-cheap rate of the lease. This is why the lease of our land is the most coveted in the main area of the sector DS0909. Instead of giving it to you I might as well gift it to a ruler class faction and have them solve our troubles. So please know your lane before you talk next time," Belphegor said with a stern voice. He no longer acted soft or pretended to be on the dwarf's side. He broke his character having changed his plan of attack.
The long game Belphegor had planned to wear down the drunk dwarf, was no more. He planned to cash in and leave before some other variable popped up. Knowing that he knew that the dwarf was after the lease of the clubhouse land he believed that things were not as simple as he had believed earlier.
"Is that a threat?" Ezra asked Belphegor in a very calm voice. It took him a while to adjust to the sudden change in Belphegor's approach. .com
"Yes, it is if you choose to interpret it as such. Let me make it clear if I am forced to make a choice, I would rather choose mutual destruction over surrender," Belphegor threatened the dwarf that he would exchange the lease of clubhouse land with a Ruler-Class faction in exchange for taking care of the dwarf and the forces behind him.
"Hahaha, I knew you were crazy. Fine, tell me what do you think is an equal exchange for the life of two devil merchants?" Ezra laughed seeing Belphegor no longer pretend to be a boy scout and reveal his true self.
"One devil merchant recommendation token, that is more than enough to exchange for the lives of two devil merchants," Belphegor replied proposing to the dwarf what he thought was an appropriate exchange for the lives of two devil merchants.
This was a lot more than what Belphegor was previously planning to offer the dwarf in settlement as compensation. If not for Belhepgor's feeling that there was a huge conspiracy behind the dwarf targeting him he would not have been willing to part with a devil merchant recommendation token.
"You kidding right? In what realm do you think a devil merchant recommendation token is equal to the lives of two devil merchants," Ezra yelled at the top of his lungs as if had enough of Belhepgor's bullshit.
"Yes, I believe it is. After all, a devil merchant recommendation token is enough for anyone to qualify as a demon/devil merchant based on their realm. Then with the recommendation token they get every decade, you can produce more demon/devil merchants. From the way I see it a devil merchant recommendation token is worth more than the lives of two devil merchants," Belphegor explained to the dwarf with a straight face as if he truly believed that a devil recommendation token is worth more than the lives of two devil merchants.
"Hahaha," Ezra laughed like a maniac, scaring JiJi and the other pixie in the box. Suddenly, his laughter came to a halt, and then Ezra said, "From the way I see it the lives of two devil merchants are worth more than a devil merchant recommendation token. After all, together they get two devil merchant recommendation tokens. Stop playing games, if you are not going to be sincere then let's have a trial. I will see how your faction survives a year devil merchant code ban on all the demon and devil merchants of the Blight Brood Club."
Ezra threatened Blephegor that he was willing to offer the devil merchant code a price to extend the banishment the Blight Brood Club and its members receive after he wins the trial.
Listening to the dwarf's threat Belphegor frowned because he knew the dwarf had the wealth and power to do what he said. Therefore, gritting his teeth he decided to increase the compensation, "Two Devil merchant recommendation tokens for two devil merchants, that's a fair deal."
"No, not enough. Thirty devil merchant recommendation tokens for the lives of two devil merchants and a year ban from the devil merchant code. No that in my eyes is a fair deal. Shake my hand before I change my mind," Ezra demanded of Belphegor with an authoritative voice.
Ezra reminded Belphegor that the lives of the two devil merchants were not the only ones on the line, if he did not go through with this deal his faction was risking a year ban from the devil merchant code for all its demon/devil merchants. So, two devil merchant recommendation tokens were far from being a fair compensation.
"Thirty, now who is not being sincere," Belphegor did not agree with the dwarf's proposal even though he knew the dwarf was right because selling the devil merchant recommendation token was one of the faction's main sources of income. This year with their extra expenditure to buy the rights of the card world, the faction could not afford to just give away Thirty devil merchant recommendation tokens but it was way better than a year ban from the devil merchant code.
"If you feel like I am not being sincere then let's meet at the trial," Ezra gave Belphegor an ultimatum.
Seeing Ezra leave no room for bargain Belphegor frowned and wrecked his mind to think of a way to persuade the stubborn dwarf as soon as possible. With every passing second Belphegor grew anxious, left with no choice, he proposed, "Instead of extra 28 tokens, how about I add the true name of the foreign devil to sweeten the pot?"
