The Von Neumann House (1)

Prussia, July 29th 1803

11:44 AM

After Lukas agreed with Erik's proposal, a sudden silence perpetuated in the room. As an answer to Lukas's agreement, Erik only nodded his head in understanding.

After that, the head of the Von Neumann house picked his glass of wine from the table beside him, and took another sip.

Lukas waited impatiently for Erik to finish drinking. Erik seemed to be gulping down the liquid in a very slow way.

Soon, Erik finally emptied the glass, and placed it back down on the small table beside him.

After that, Erik showed a smile to Lukas once again. "Very well, then. Let us get down to business," he said before sighing. "Is there anything you would like to know about me?" the blonde man asked.

Lukas immediately nodded his head. "Yes," he replied.

Erik nodded his head. "Please, proceed," he said to Lukas.
