He grunted loudly, his voice low and rough.
Every word and little sound he'd made were like an out of tune instrument.
He lowered his hand slowly after being satisfied with her answer as he spoke once more.
"Dismissed."
β β
Like she was trying to fill the air .
β But you, sir, can call me Hilde . May I go now, General Radahn .α£ β
Patiently awaiting permission .
β β
β β
β β
She looked proud of herself, placing the vial in his hand like she won a battle .
β Make sure to use only a little β Donβt want to waste it, after all . β
β β
Staring down at the tarnished for what felt like an eternity, he could feel the tension in their voice, the lightest shake in their words yet he spoke calmly.
"Very well, suppose i can use this.
Can't recall the last time i slept soundly."
β β
β Iβm not the one to risk my life in a battle I will clearly not win . β
She looked so lighthearted β if only he knew about the speed her heart was beating right now . Sheβs probably about to have a heart attack .
β Besides, demi-Gods have stronger bodies . β
β β
"i thought you had come here for a challenge, i did not take you for the mercantile sort."
Still very skeptical about this random woman, confused even by her motives
γ €
" Why not .α£ "
She smiled, her slight snaggletooth peeking out from under her lips . Her hand went to her chin, supported by the other .
" I wish to create a name for myself, so why not get a big name customer .α£ Profits would skyrocket . "
γ €
A skeptical look in his eye, if anything his instincts are telling him to decapitate the woman where she stood.
Taking the small vail from the figure to look at it better.
"And you're offering this....why?"
β β
β A sedative you clearly need, no .α£ β
She narrowed her eyes with a glint of opportunity β a smirk on her face . She held the vial between her fingers, lifting it up so itβd reflect the sun through the murky purple liquid .
β Iβve tested this myself, It works . β
β β
The Goliath's gaze lowered towards the woman, eyes weary and attentive.
The sound of rusty armour filling the air as he moved to match the woman's height to better look at the object.
"A sedative.
You traverse all the way here to bring me a sedative?"
β β
might as well be a glass marble in that man's hand .
" You look tired, no .α£ Drinking a little bit of this will give you a good night's rest β It can pull even the strongest of dragons into it's lulling embrace . "
She spoke like she was selling it to him .
