บท 223: Negotiating With Kali

Erich was formulating a response to what Kali had said. He had come all this way, so now he had to make a proper proposal. However, before he could say anything, the Asuran beauty was quick to speak up again, and in doing so shocked not only Erich but also Mirage and Sinaria, who were standing by his side. 

"I'm sorry, where are my manners.... I invited you all this way, and yet I have not even bothered to serve you something to eat. Are you perhaps hungry? If not, I have plenty of palm wine which I can serve you...." 

Erich looked over at Mirage to make sure that he was not the only one who was surprised by this gesture. For a being like Kali, who was essentially on the same level as Lunaria, she was not required to serve her guests food and wine. In fact, by simply being allowed in their presence was considered gracious enough from behalf of the guest. 

Before Erich could make a move, he heard Tia's voice in his head to call out to him.
