After leaving the Adventurer's Guild with a satisfied smirk, Nikos went through the streets of the town, his mind already shifting to his next move.
He needed leverage against the mayor, and he knew exactly how to get it.
By the time Nikos reached Lukas mansion, the sun had dipped below the horizon, casting long shadows over the town.
Lukas, a tall, muscular wolf-man, stood at the gate of his sprawling estate, his eyes gleaming as Nikos approached. The two had struck a successful business deal the previous month, and Nikos knew Lukas would be more than willing to help him again.
"Ah, Sir Nikos," Lukas growled in his deep, gravelly voice as he opened the gate to let Nikos in. "Good to see you, my friend. The last deal we made was quite the success. What brings you here tonight?"
The two move to the garden on the back.
Nikos, ever calm and composed, smiled slightly. "Lukas, I need another help of yours with something."
