Belphegor could not shake the feeling that the chaos dwarf was monitoring their every action while pretending to be engrossed in enjoying his spirit beer. Belphegor took his intuition seriously and did not doubt it for a second. So he wondered how the chaos dwarf was monitoring them constantly when he had barely glanced at them since they arrived.
Belphegor recalled the card demigod saying that the chaos dwarf had a strong spirit item, so he wondered if the chaos dwarf had other spirit items that could allow him to monitor them without actually looking at them. Convinced with his theory, Belphegor scrutinized the chaos dwarf's spirit body and the box but he found nothing that closely resembled a spirit item.
Despite so many thoughts going on in his head, Belphegor indifferently enjoyed his spirit beer at his pace blatantly monitoring the chaos dwarf's every action as he did not have a spirit item to spy on him like the chaos dwarf did. Even a low-tier spy-type spirit item was too expensive, Belphegor felt it was a waste of money since beings with sensitive spiritual energy could notice its presence as he did, he would rather invest in a defense-type spirit item like the spirit suit he was currently wearing.
'Is this Belphegor's commonly used form?' Wyatt wondered enjoying his beer. He was not foolish enough to believe that Belphegor's true form was a humanoid with the twin horns of a cow.
However, Wyatt was surprised to see that Belphegor preferred to dress in an expensive suit-type spirit item. In the inter-realm city, it was rare to see beings wearing spirit items. Most just shaped their choice of dress with their spiritual power just like they shaped their spiritual body. So he wondered if Belphegor's suit was one of those fancy defense-type spirit items with different forms.
Wyatt considered if he should order a defense-type spirit item for Ezra from the devil merchant code, it would be a good addition to Ezra's image of an arrogant second-generation chaos dwarf. Wyatt soon discarded this notion as he did not plan to use his Ezra persona again after he managed to get what he wanted from Belphegor today. Not to mention spending so much on a temporary persona would be a waste of money.
The quietness in the Exec. VVIP box continued to prevail as the two devils, a demon, and a pixie enjoyed their drinks while the other two pixies stood at ease waiting for any further orders from their designated clients. They too wanted to enjoy a spirit dew like JiJi but the Infinity Library did not allow them to be willful during work hours even though they could take and use anything in the Infinity Library for free.
"Tsk," Gol kin irritatedly looked at the chaos dwarf, he was not the one to enjoy silence but thrived in chaos. He would choose torture over silence because silence was like torture to him. He felt that his spirit beer's taste diminished due to the silence. Someone like him was not suited for these meetings, he would rather be in a losing war desperately trying to turn the tides than be here another second.
At first, when Belhpegor invited him to the settlement discussion he believed the faction was finally recognizing his contribution but now he felt like Belphegor was punishing him for always whining about not including him in important meetings despite his large contribution to the prosperity of their faction.
