The dirt was nothing compared to what was coming. When Nivalis finished distributing the gifts, the conversation outside was getting more and more dangerous.
Nivalis: "Ah, you're talking about the dragon dung at the auction house?"
Nivalis: "I forced her to sell it! Yes, I threatened her with death! My dream is to have my dragon dung sold all over Lania Kaia."
Nivalis: "What for? Of course, it's to report back to you all!"
Rita felt as though there were needles under her, and she squirmed uneasily, almost having the impulse to rush out and cover Nivalis' mouth.
Nivalis: "You see, I can only sell dragon dung if I'm doing well! If I run into danger, wouldn't the auction house just end up with my dragon blood and dragon scales?!"
"Oh? Then why aren't you selling them recently?"—This was Elder Dragon Snow Pile's voice.
"Uh... well..."
"Is it because you can't squeeze it out, or you don't want to report back?"
