210 A Little man's request

While everyone remained silent in the room, all that could be heard was the sound of the dwarf eating his food away.

Suddenly, Ray started to laugh.

"Yes, you are right," Ray said, "how could you expect to do business with a boy."

Then Ray's hair started to go from Red to Black. His height and body proportions started to match that of an adult until he had finally transformed into the man known as Nes.

"Is this more to your liking?" Ray asked.

Suddenly the dwarf stopped eating and stared at Ray in admiration.

"A mage and not just any mage a powerful one at that." The dwarf said. "I'm sorry about my rudeness before, come sit, enjoy some food with me."

Ray did as asked and sat down at the table with the dwarf. He cancelled his transformation and returned to being the 17-year-old red-haired boy Ray.

"Lad, I cannot get used to that, I've never seen anything like that in my life." The dwarf said.
