An Exchange[1]

[Third Person POV],

"Wait!"

When Emma's voice was heard, everyone turned to look at her, and then they turned to look at the item in her hands.

Aside from Chris, who was perplexed by Emma's sudden action, the dwarves turned to look at Emma, or more accurately, the object in her hand.

One of the dwarves who has always stood close to the dwarven king spoke up to ask Emma a question, possibly not understanding the intention behind Emma's action.

This dwarf stood out among the dwarves and others in the race because of the scars on his body and the fact that the momentum he excluded with several others was that of a warrior.

"What are your intentions?" Everyone, including the always-calm-looking dwarven king, turned to look at Emma, waiting for her response.

When Emma saw this, she took a deep breath before speaking with a slightly forced smile.

"When the king asked if I had any wine on me, I truly didn't have any, but when I saw you guys were leaving, an idea came to my head and I decided to buy a wine for your king," Emma quickly said in the calmest voice she could muster, but even then, the dwarf from before seemed to have ignored her and asked the same question he had asked before.

"What are your intentions?"

When the dwarven king finally spoke for the first time after a while, Emma considered how to phrase her intentions directly without appearing too direct.

"Just say what you want to say lad," he said calmly, and Emma immediately stopped thinking hard and decided to say whatever came to mind.

"Do you mind if I use this as an exchange with you?" Emma began her speech with this, and the dwarven king nodded when he heard it before speaking.

"What exchange are you referring to?" He inquired.

"I want information," Emma said as the dwarven king fell silent for a few seconds before responding to Emma's words.

"What information do you require?" he inquired of Emma, who took another deep breath before speaking again.

"Any information at all," Emma replied, eliciting a reaction from the dwarven king through his expression as he raised an eyebrow to what Emma said.

"How come you're so sure I have any information that could be useful?" For the first time, the king asked a question, his tone indicating his interest.

"You speak with an aura of experience that isn't achievable in a decade. At the very least three decades "Emma said softly, and when the dwarven king heard this, he burst out laughing and stroked his beards, surprising everyone around him with his sudden actions.

He only responded after he had stopped laughing.

"I guess if you live the same number of years as me, that's natural, but even then, I don't think my knowledge will satisfy you," he said, turning to face the now solemn Emma, who walked closer to him before stopping at a distance where he didn't have to raise his head to meet hers.

This was clearly done on purpose, even though she tried to hide it; it still showed, but no one said anything despite the fact that they were aware of it as they turned to look at Emma, who opened her mouth to speak.

"Can I then use this to be worthy of a talk the next time?" She said this as she handed the item to a dwarf beside her, who took it with both hands because the item was quite large after his king nodded approval.

Emma gave the dwarves two wine jars that cost ten gold coins each, which she had purchased from the store.

Expensive for wine, but considering it was made with a bunch of inferior to normal grade herbs and a few fruits, it doesn't appear to be that expensive.

It was now a question of whether the king would like it, and Emma reasoned that based on the slight smiles on the faces of all the dwarves, including the king, they probably wouldn't care about the price of the wine as long as it was wine.

After a few seconds of this, the dwarven king opened his mouth to speak while tapping his chest.

"Haha"

"You're already a friend of this seat"

"So it doesn't appear to be an unequal exchange, then let me give you this piece of information," the dwarven king said as Emma focused on what he was about to say.

"In the next ten days, try to evolve to rank 1 quickly if you want to have a say in what happens next," the dwarven king said, as Emma became confused and subconsciously asked a question.

"How come 10 days?" She inquired, to which the dwarven king replied, answering her question while giving birth to another.

"Because we'll be unsealed in 10 days," the dwarven king replied.

"Well, partly unsealed"

"We?"

"________", The king opened his mouth to speak, but no words came out of it, or rather, the words that did come out of his mouth could not be heard.

Seeing this, the dwarven king didn't bother speaking again, knowing that Emma could figure out what was causing this.

Something was preventing the dwarven king from saying more informed or Emma from hearing it, and it might have something to do with this sealed state, but something was definitely preventing the dwarven king from speaking.

Despite this, Emma knew she had just obtained valuable information.

Since the dwarven king said 'we,' he may have meant that there are likely people just like him who came out of this strange portal in other places, but for him to use 'we,' there must be something that was just like the dwarven king and was sealed, and this seal was being removed in ten days.

Emma had a slight smile on her face despite the fact that this sounded more serious.

Interesting.
