"Whew," he announced, patting his stomach with a playful grin. "That was incredible. Thanks for the hospitality, everyone. Now, where were we?"

A chuckle rippled around the table, the tension easing slightly under the weight of a shared indulgence. Anya, the Berserker guild master, leaned forward, her gaze sharp.

"Alright, kid. Now that you've successfully used our money to stuff yourself, let's get down to business."

A sudden silence descended upon the table. The lighthearted mood of the meal evaporated, replaced by an air of intense competition.
