"You damned fly, why is my spirit beer tasting funny? Are you giving me the fake stuff?" Gol Kin yelled in rage slamming his half-empty jug on the table while his feathers radiated like the embers of a lava. Gol Kin had no problem with the spirit beer he was rather uncomfortable with the silence.

"This…" Gol Kin's pixie was jumped in fright being yelled at by Gol Kin. He did not know how to answer his client because he was serving him the same stuff as the other two pixies were serving their clients.

"Are you saying that the Infinity Library sells fake spirit beer?" Ezra shifted his gaze from the bottom of his beer jug and glared at the amber-feathered bastard.

Gol Kin suddenly went quiet listening to the chaos dwarf, as he could not think of words to defend himself. He just wanted to relieve his frustration on the little pixie like he always does but did not expect the chaos dwarf to use his words against him. He was hotheaded but he also knew that anything he said now would be used against him by the chaos dwarf.

Just as Gol Kin was wrecking his mind to climb out of the hole he dug himself in, he heard an encrypted soul whisper from his boss, 'Apologize.'

Listening to the encrypted soul whisper, Gol Kin looked at Belphegor in disbelief, then his eyes grew resolute conveying that he would rather die than apologize to the chaos dwarf.

'You fool, apologize to the Infinity Library, not the dwarf,' Belphegor sternly explained to Gol Kin through an encrypted soul whisper. Listening to this, Gol Kin was dumbfounded, but soon masking his embarrassment with a cough, he said, "I apologize. I did not mean any offense to the infinity library."

"Then what did you mean?" Ezra asked, intensely glaring at Gol Kin. He was indeed trying to blow this matter out of proportion.

However, Gol Kin was not as dumb as he thought. The devil knew when to shut his loud mouth and bow his head. But Ezra did not plan to leave this matter here. Otherwise, he would have to wait for Belphegor to crack and initiate the negotiation. That wasn't happening as neither was willing to show their hand by taking the lead.

Ignoring the chaos dwarf, Gol Kin quietly picked up his jug and sipped the spirit beer, then he said, "Oh, this is the best spirit beer I know. I seem to have been hasty earlier."

"It's good to hear that the spirit beer is to your liking, esteemed devil merchant," Gol Kin's Pixie smiled and responded, hearing Gol Kin's weak excuse. With the Pixie forgiving Gol Kin, Ezra could not pursue the matter further unless he was willing to reveal that he was the Exec. VVIP member, not his elder. Which would be a shocking reveal, but he would risk Belhepgor wondering if Ezra had an elder who was an Exec. VVIP member of the Infinity Library backing him. That was too big of a risk. So, Ezra had no choice but to give up this matter.

With this spat laid to rest, the Exec. VVIP member box once again retained its awkward silence. With the scare from earlier, Gol Kin was now more cautious with his actions and words because he finally became aware that the negotiation had already begun. Catching with what was happening, Gol Kin felt like a spectator watching a grandmaster-level chess competition. The tensions were high, as were the stakes.

"Refill," Ezra said to JiJi, who did not instantly fill his jug with spirit beer, instead recommended him, "Why don't you try something new like the spectral grass blade dew if you have had your fill of this bitter stuff?"

"Will I get drunk with it?" Ezra asked the little pixie.

"No, but it tastes refreshing," JiJi replied only to hear Ezra say, "Then I will have a refill of your finest spirit beer."

"If you want to get drunk, then you can try a glass of spirit mushroom dew," JiJi recommended another drink, ignoring Ezra's demand. She wanted her friend to try the drink she liked and hoped that he liked it too.

"Then a glass of spirit mushroom dew," Ezra ordered. JiJi cheerfully responded snapping her tiny fingers, "One glass of spirit mushroom dew."

Soon, a vine glass filled with clear red water conjured in front of Ezra on the table as the spirit beer jug vanished. Ezra skeptically looked at the glass of dew before picking it up and gulping it down in one go. Then clenching his face, he said, "Damn, that is sweet."

Belphegor and Gol Kin looked at the dwarf in shock, knowing that a glass of spirit mushroom dew was too much to handle even for a devil's spiritual body, let alone a demon master's spiritual body. Not to mention, the dwarf emptied the glass in a single go. They wondered if the dwarf was here to negotiate or get wasted.

"Did you like it? Did you like it?" JiJi asked Wyatt with great expectation.

"It's too sweet for my taste but not bad," Ezra answered. Seeing him answer without stuttering both the devils were shocked, wondering how a demon merchant's spiritual body was able to handle an entire glass of spirit mushroom dew.

While Belphegor nodded thinking, 'As expected of a chaos dwarf' Gol Kin was not willing to be outdone by a demon master in drinking. So emptying his jug he slammed it on the table yelling, "Get me a glass of spirit mushroom dew."

"Here," Gol Kin's pixie snapped his finger conjuring a glass of spirit mushroom dew replacing the empty jug of spirit beer.

Gol Kin immediately picked up the glass but hesitated to drink it however seeing the dwarf order another glass of spirit mushroom dew, he no longer hesitated and emptied the glass in a single gulp.
