If you broke something, you should compensate for it

William and Steven arrived at the meeting room around 2 p.m., having spent the journey discussing various matters and tentatively establishing a set of rules. 

Their primary goal was to ensure the safety of ordinary citizens and maintain social order.

As William and Steven entered the meeting room, the group of Shapeshifters Lords all stood up in fright.

Sit down? 

In William's presence, they felt an innate fear that was hard to shake off. 

How could they dare to sit while William was standing? 

What if William was as capricious as Lernaeus had been? 

They wouldn't even know how they died.

The receptionist clearly noticed the trembling of these intimidating figures.

Yes, they were shaking! 

Given their generally large stature, even a slight tremble was quite noticeable.

Steven was indeed formidable. 

Just by standing there, he had them shaking in fear.

Internally, Steven was stunned.
