Mora stared at the message for several seconds, and although her face remained calm, her fingers tightened around the interface as if the number itself had offended her.
Ten soul stones was not a small price, not for a temporary summon, and even if the Silverback had performed beyond expectations, the jump from gold coins to soul stones was too much.
"This is excessive," she said while looking toward her vice leader.
Her vice leader leaned closer, read the message twice, and frowned as well. "Ten soul stones for twelve hours… Guild Leader, this is not a normal rate."
Mora opened the reply field and typed quickly, offering five soul stones instead, because although she accepted the value of the summon, she did not intend to look like someone who could be squeezed without resistance.
The response came almost immediately, and it was not a counteroffer.
