Chapter 190 War once again 6 (2/2)
”I enjoy it too, just a little faster than you do”
at this point the elvers in the room woke up from their stunned silence and began whispering among themselves
”(who's this?)”
”(I think I have seen him before... just can't remember where...)”
quickly they decided that Mars was a nuisance and he had to leave, Mars of course heard and understood everything they were saying and let out a faint smile as he purred more rum into Terry's glass this time from another bottle while saying ”you gotta try this too” meanwhile the elvers decided on a representative and one elver walked forwards and asked Mars
”excuse me, who might you be?”
”names Mars, I'm the leader of your military appointed by the elders themselves.... and who might you be?”
the repetitive paled for a moment before he let out a short laugh, he obviously didn't believe that this random drunkard was the leader of the military, he had heard that the new leader of the military were a bloodthirsty man that would kill you if you so much as locked eyes with him
”my name is Ramos and I represent the 33th floor's shops and I am here to negotiate a new leasing agreement with master Terry, behind me is the representatives of the other floor's shops”
Mars gave a nod and purred himself another glass of strong rum and downed it before he looked over at Terry and asked
”so how's the negotiations going?”
Terry normally would just have given a smile or said something like ”they're going good” but now he was slightly tipsy and quickly kicked up a fuss as he half yelled out
”they're going horrible, they want the rent that's half of that of other buildings in the area, can you believe that Mars!?”
Mars gave a nod and looked over the elvers again, looking at their eyes filled with greed, they probably thought Terry was easy to bully he instantly lost all respect he had for them and whispered to Terry
”are you going to take that lying down Terry? or are you going to put them in their place?”
”but what should I do Mars?”
”well how about this---”
Mars told his master plan to Terry that then gave a nod and stood up from the couch and wobbled slightly before he pointed at the shop representatives and asked
”who here is satisfied with their current arrangement?”
none of the representatives spoke up, this caused terry to narrow his eyes as he continued speaking
”then please tell your tenets that they have till the end of the month to clear out of their assigned areas”
the representatives all paled before one of them yelled
”that's unfair, you can't just throw us out!”
Terry gave a nod
”sure I can, the elders assigned me this building so I can do what I want with it, now negotiations have broken down, please leave”
”come on now master Terry you don't have to be like this, what about a 35% decrease in rent?”
Mars narrowed his eyes and looked over at the female elver that had shown him in and gestured for her to do something, the elver gave a nod and spoke up
”please leave master Terry is tired... if anyone of you want to accept the terms laid out by master Terry please come by my office or be prepared to clear out before the start of the next month”
the representatives all glared at Terry before they took their leave and soon the only ones left in the living room was Mars, Terry and the female elver, Mars looked over at her and praised her
”well done, you acted exactly like I thought you would.... that reminds me I never got your name?”
”my name is Annabel, I'm the manager of this building”
”Oh, in that case do you know Kaitlin, she's the manager of my building?”
”yes... we have meet before... I'm afraid you will have to take your leave now Mars”
Mars looked over and saw Terry had nodded off and gave a wry smile
'I'll have to work on his alcohol tolerance won't I?'
Mars stood up from the couch and picked up his now considerably lighter paper bag o' booze and said goodbye to Annabel before he walked out of the penthouse
