"Your pressure—it is harming my company." Basil gestured at Tinuviel and the others.
"They are... weak. It is their unfortunate fate to be born that way," the Dragon replied neutrally.
"Ho-oh? Your arrogance has become apparent now that you can speak clearly," Basil replied, hiding a smile at the answer that he had expected. "That, unfortunately, can't be the case. I have to ask you to alleviate the pressure."
"Human, you seem to have forgotten your position. No intruder has any right to complain about being treated harshly by the owner of the place," retorted the Dragon coldly.
Listening to the conversation between the two, touched as they were by Basil's initiative, the people silently suggested Basil that he should just back down. They could easily tell the talk wouldn't go anywhere.
