Nikos sat calmly in the chair, facing the guild master Mesa with his towering figure as a giant race behind his desk.
A large table separated Nikos from the guild master, and on it sat a scroll, detailing the rewards being discussed for Nikos and his party's contribution to ending the monster waves.
Mesa's previous rejection had left the room in silence, with both men locked in a silent stare. The tension was palpable in this room.
"So, what's this about your request for the monster corpses?" the guild master, rumbled. His deep voice resonated through the room, like distant thunder.
Nikos leaned back slightly, his posture relaxed but commanding, picturing his calm intelligence.
