Was I Tricked?

"Three is a very low offer, I can't take it."

"And I can't offer you anymore than that! take it or leave it."

"I will leave then!"

I had it enough from its shamelessness! Even my little peaceful weak demon of the mere fifth layer had four mighty artifacts over its body! and this one here was trying to trick me, by giving me only three!

"Wait, wait, I can give you one more thing," it paused, and its face showed its pained expression. "What? Just don't be this stingy old lizard and spill it out."

"Old… lizard!" it seemed quite shocked before it laughed, in a crazy way, "Oh gosh, it passed a really long time since your last witch called me this! What, did she already tell you this name about me?"

Strangely, and weirdly enough, that stupid lizard found it amusing, and even stood there proudly acknowledging this nickname!
