Chương 28: Chapter 28 - Great Deal
Skalain stood at the counter of the Huntsman Hut, a collection of Moon Bear parts neatly arranged before him. He locked eyes with Heida, the woman he had become acquainted with during his previous visits. The air was thick with anticipation as they prepared to engage in a haggling match.
Skalain's heart raced with a mixture of nerves and determination. He knew that securing a fair price for his hard-earned spoils was crucial. He had put in the effort and braved the dangers of the Silent Water Forest, and now it was time to reap the rewards.
Heida, a seasoned merchant with a sharp gaze, sized up the Moon Bear parts, her expression unreadable. Skalain couldn't help but feel a twinge of unease.
"I can only hope she would not try to swindle me."
As the haggling commenced, Skalain focused his attention, strategizing his approach. He needed to exude confidence while showcasing the quality of his bounty.
"Stay calm," he reminded himself, his thoughts racing. "You've done your research; you know the market value. Trust in your abilities."
Skalain shook his head as he noticed his thoughts.
"I care too much about just a simple hunt."
He thought.
At the same time,
Heida's voice, measured and shrewd, pierced the air. She offered a price that fell below Skalain's expectations.
"I expected this much."
Skalain thought as the disappointment surged within him, threatening to undermine his composure. But he refused to let it show.
Skalain's mind raced, searching for a counteroffer that would both assert his worth and maintain a semblance of negotiation. He weighed the risks and rewards, knowing that a poorly worded response could jeopardize the entire deal.
"Be assertive," he thought, steeling his resolve. "Remain steadfast in your value. But be mindful of striking a balance."
With careful consideration, Skalain presented a counteroffer, his voice steady despite the nervous flutter in his chest.
He outlined the merits of the Moon Bear parts,
Time seemed to stretch as the haggling continued, with each offer and counteroffer a dance of negotiation.
He knew that securing a favorable deal would not only reward him monetarily but also bolster his confidence in his abilities as a hunter and provider.
Finally, after what felt like an eternity, an agreement was reached.
He felt a surge of satisfaction and relief wash over him.
As he left the Huntsman Hut, gold coins jingling in his pocket, Skalain couldn't help but wear a small triumphant smile. The successful haggling had not only boosted his confidence but also affirmed his worth as a skilled hunter in the eyes of others.
He knew that this was just the beginning of his journey, a stepping stone towards greater accomplishments. With each successful sale, he would gather the resources necessary to pursue his ultimate goals.
As he walked away, his head held high, Skalain relished in the thrill of the haggling victory. The experience had not only honed his negotiation skills but also strengthened his resolve to push further and achieve even greater success in the realms of hunting and magic.
