Chapter 34: Challenging mission
The meeting didn’t stop because the weak wizard had left. Back in the bright dome, Thanatos and his Corvus continued their discussion.
"What about the gem, Lord Thanatos?" Asked the man sitting in the right dome, his voice a little too casual for someone talking to a feared Rogue.
"I say we hold a competition. Whoever finds it first gets to book a match with the first seat and challenge him for his seat," came a thin voice to the left of Lord Thanatos’s side.
"No, whoever wins gets to dine with lord Thanatos for a week," cane yet another voice, a stark contrast to the thin one with its gruff hoarse nature.
"I don’t suppose you think you’d win over me?" The thin voice challenged.
"Oh, but I would you little shit. I’m twice as big as you."
"And a rank below," the thin voice retorted.
"Shut up you uncultured swine! Lord Thanatos is yet to decide what to do and you’re disturbing him," the man in the right arch hissed, a wave of his aura filling the room and strong enough to silence the bickering women.
Just then, Thanatos let out a hearty laugh similar to that of a father watching his children fight over stupid claims.
"Isn’t it wonderful how much you all want to be number one? I must say, your determination to win is very commendable."
The room went silent.
