As Mak Tul walked Chaos Dwarf Ezra Foolhar back to his office to discuss their partnership over a bottle of Island Spirit liquor. As they neared the office, a Staff rushed to Mak Tul's side and hurriedly informed him, "Manager, young master Cuth Diya is waiting for you in your office. I tried to stop him but he would not take no for an answer."
"I understand you can get back to work now," Mak Tul ordered with a frown.
"Manager, is there a problem?" Ezra Foolhar asked seeing the frown on Mak Tul's face.
"No, Master Ezra. Everything is under control. Let me introduce you to young master Cuth Diya, he is going to be your client," Mak Tul informed Ezar.
"You have arranged for a client already?" Wyatt was surprised to hear Mak Tul say that he had already found a client for Ezra who would redeem the service that he agreed to in exchange for them helping with his task. It seems, that Mak Tul had already used the 'Sevice of a Chaos Dwarf' as a bargaining chip to stabilize his political standing in the 'Seven Princes of Hell' faction. No wonder this guy was able to stay in his position for more than a century with enemies like Nim Tul trying to do everything in their power to see him fall.
"Master Ezra, I do not have to tell you the demand for a good craftsman in the market. I hope you do not mind helping young master Cuth Diya first. I owe his father Devil Muth Diya a little favor," Mak Tul requested the Chaos Dwarf Ezra. Clearly, Mak Tul had sold the one-time service of Chaso Dwarf Ezra to the highest bidder, devil Mutt Diya. Mostly to help his position in their faction.
"Sure, we have already signed the contract. It is only a matter of time before I hold my end of the deal. Better sooner than later," Wyatt agreed to Manager Mak Tul's request readily. After all, this worked in favor of his plan.
"Thank you, Master Ezra," Mak Tul grinned widely feeling that things were finally working as he planned. He did indeed sell the one-time service to the devil Muth Diya to ensure and solidify his reign as the manager of Blight Brood for another few decades. But he did not expect the devil Muth Diya to send his son to him so soon. Well, considering the popularity of the Chaos Dwarf he must be worried that one of the founding devils would take fancy to this. The authority and power held by the founding devils in the faction were totally unmatched compared to the authority and power of the devils that joined the faction later based on its future prospects.
As Mak Tul led Ezra into his office, they saw a young humanoid demon with cow tail, and stag horns with zebra strips and hoofs for feet get up from the couch and greet them, "Hello, Manager Mak Tul. This must be Master Ezra, I am Cuth Diya. It is an honor to meet you, Master Ezra."
The young demon was in the Demon Lord realm yet he did not hesitate to bow down and sign praise of a Demon Master realm Chaos Dwarf, showcasing a decent amount of patience and forbearance.
"Um," Ezra arrogantly nodded and without sparing him a glance he turned to Mak Tul and said, "Are you going to open that bottle of Island Spring Liquor?"
"..." Seeing the reaction of Chaos Dwarf Ezra, Cuth Diya did not dare to show any kind of disrespect. This was not only an opportunity to make use of the Chaos Dwarf's craftsmanship to increase his strength but also to build a relationship with him. With the friendship of a Chaos Dwarf not only will he gain the favor of his father, devil Muth Diya, but it will also open up new doors for him both in the dark realm and inter-realm city. Therefore, regardless of how rude and sadistic the Chaos Dwarf was toward him, today Cuth Diya would go above and beyond to please the Chaos Dwarf Ezra and gain his friendship.
"Let me get the glasses," Saying that Mak Tul opened the glass cabinet by his office table, and taking out three crystal glasses he opened the bottle of Island Spirit wine and poured it equally into the three glasses saying, "Master Ezra, sorry for the delay."
Ignoring the two Ezra, picked up his glass, and without bothering to make a toast or cheers he emptied it in a single sip. Seeing this, Cuth Diya's eyes sparkled instead of picking up his glass he summoned his demon merchant codex, pulling an expensive-looking spirit liquor out of it, he said, "I was saving this bottle of Alp spirit liquor for a special occasion but this moment seems as special as it can get for me in while so why not."
"Haha, young master Cuth Diya. You could not be truer," Mak Tul gave Cuth Diya a thumbs-up as he emptied his glass of island spirit liquor and greedily stared at the bottle of Alp spirit liquor in Cuth Diya's hand. After all, it was among the top hundred expensive liquors in the dark ream and inter-realm city.
"Master Ezra, hopefully, it is to your taste," Cuth Diya said as he cleaned Ezra's glass anew with soul energy and poured the Alp spirit liquor into it.
"Haha, any liquor is to my taste but the costlier the better," Ezra laughed as he slowly savored the Alp spirit liquor. After all, this liquor was not the same as Island spirit liquor. Even if one were willing to pay ten times the market cost of the Alp spirit liquor one might not be able to procure it since compared to its high demand its supply was very low. Not because the people creating it were controlling its supply but because the ingredients used to create this spirit of liquor were very rare even in the inter-realm city's market.
