"Let's all just calm down for a moment," the middle-aged leader of the locals slowly raised his hands. "I'm not going to give my people a sign, you are not going to pull the trigger of the gun in your hand," he proposed. "Do we have a deal?"
'Dealing with this man can only lead to a disaster,' Mathew thought, doing his absolute utmost to keep up the smirking facade. 'But for now…'
Mathew heaved a deep sigh, loosening his facade and allowing a slight sense of displeasure to appear on his face.
"How could we calm down when you are currently trying to rob us?" Mathew asked, leaning his head over his shoulder. "Even after all the pains and hardships, we went through to save you from the horde, even after openly claiming the cores of the zombies we took down ourselves…"
As Mathew continued his lecture, more and more guns continued to raise from the floor only to point their muzzles toward the leader of the locals.
