"You know what if you are going to be so stubborn let us meet at the trial," Ezra said in a rage seeing that no matter what he said Belphegor was not willing to give up on the two devil merchants to save his faction the trouble. 

"I that is what you want sure. You do what you have to do and I will do what I need to do," Belphegor replied calmly knowing that the dwarf was bluffing to get him to cave. Since he had figured out the dwarf's game plan, Belphegor was going to show the dwarf he had messed with the wrong people. 

Belphegor has not forgotten the fact that it was the dwarf who picked a fight with them. The dwarf dangled himself in front of them as bait knowing that they would take the bait. Belphegor was clear that the dwarf had other intentions behind this and currently hiding behind this appeal. Therefore he was sure the dwarf would not go to trial over this. 

lightsn?v?l "Do you think you can save those two devil merchants from me? I already know about the devil from the Diya clan as for the foreign devil merchant sooner or later I will get his true name and once I do that would be his last day alive," Ezra declared recklessly, revealing that he was not totally dependent on this settlement discussion to deal with the two devil merchants he had made other arrangements.

"What do you mean?" Belphegor was happy to see that the dwarf was getting more and more talkative but he could not help but frown hearing the dwarf's ominous words.

"You know what I mean," Ezra replied arrogantly with a sneer looking down on Belphegor and his useless struggle. 

"Are you threatening my faction members?" Belphegor glared at the dwarf. Meanwhile, he secretly used his devil merchant code to contact a fellow founder, informing him to ask Muth Diya to hide in the Card Realm along with Handsome Fox and ban all inter-realm transportation to the Card Realm. 

"You said it not me," Ezra responded playfully. While his eyes asked Belphegor, 'Yes, what are you going to do about it?'

"Y-you I will submit an appeal to the Devil Merchant Code," Belphegor yelled pretending to be helpless. 

"Sure go ahead, I will submit a defamation appeal to Devil Merchant Code. Let us see whom the devil merchant code supports," Ezra blatantly said that the devil merchant code was going to support him no matter what unless Belphegor had proof to back his appeal. 

"You are abusing your power," Belphegor cried in desperation.

"You are no stranger to abusing power, right? The 'Seven Prince of Hell' faction's reputation precedes it. Especially, you devil merchant Belphegor," Ezra looked at Belphegor with eyes filled with scorn and disgust. 

Seeing this Belphegor was enraged by he could not show it as his flawless act so far would be for nothing. So he did not let his rage break his character and continued to stay in his character to the very end.

Despite his rage, Belphegor observed and learned a lot about the dwarf. All his assumptions about the dwarf so far were proving to be correct. Especially from the dwarf's recent words, it was clear that the dwarf was targeting him for someone or something else. 

Belphegor was now convinced that from the start, the dwarf's target was not the Blight Brood club, Devil Muth Diya, or Demigod Handsome Fox but himself. The appeal to the devil merchant code and demand for Devil Muth Diya and Demigod Handsome Fox's heads was all a ruse to get to him. 

Now it was clear to Belphegor that the dwarf planned to use the Blight Brood club, Devil Muth Diya, and Demigod Handsome Fox as leverage to get him to do something. Understanding this Belphegor felt his rage toward the dwarf vanish instead in his mind the dwarf was nothing but an idiot. 

Now that Belphegor knew what the dwarf was after and how he planned to achieve his goal, Belphegor planned to give the dwarf a strong sense of satisfaction while actually giving him next to nothing in exchange for withdrawing the appeal and then sending him packing. Belphegor could see everything play out in his mind and he could not help but sneer at the dwarf. 

If not for the dwarf's strong backing Belphegor would have taught it a lesson but he knew better than to make a pseudo-ruler class enemy. Just the dwarf was proving such a difficult enemy thanks to the resources of the elder chaos dwarf backing him, he could not imagine what the elder chaos dwarf was capable of. For now, Belphegor planned to swallow his anger. Belphegor knew when to retreat and that was the reason why he was able to live so long in the dark realm despite having so many enemies. 

"Regardless of what you say I can't give you the two devil merchants of my faction, that is my bottom line," Belphegor continued to stay in character knowing the dwarf was after him and would not go to trial. 

"I am not asking you to, someone is paying Devil Muth Diya a visit as for the foreign devil merchant, sooner or later I will know who he is, and then someone will pay him a visit," Seeing Belphegor continued to repeat the same thing again and again, Ezra decided to give him a push by implying that he had hired a hitman to kill Devil Muth Diya.

Belphegor glared at the dwarf for an entire minute before compromising, "Call off your men, I am willing to compensate you for your losses. Tell me what is it going to cost me for you to leave them alone." 

Belphegor knew the dwarf wanted something from him but he did not know what it was. So, despite having moved Muth Diya to safety in the card realm, he pretended as if the dwarf had cornered him to learn what the dwarf was really after.
