Read It Back

[Victor Wolfe]

Thanks for creating this I would like for someone to have a look at my most recent response, any advice is appreciated and I am always open to criticism as long as it is constructive ( in other words I do not mind you talking bad about my writing as long as you let me know what I could have done to improve it )

Victor stared down the beast feeling the killing intent it was sending his way, if Gilgamesh had not ordered it to stand down, it would probably be trying to spread the contents of his jugular over the floor, he was not phased much though, holding its gaze. In his line of work there was always someone who wanted him dead.

He turned his gaze towards the throne and the king sitting upon it, he seemed to radiate authority, giving commands to his servants as if it was more natural to him than walking. Victor smiled at the comment of the king

"Why of course I did not come here just for some minor recruitment and to discuss the way the world works, I just like to help my allies as much as possible, and its always nice to find people who you see eye to eye with, I have met too many people in the world who I...Disagree with on many things."

Victor thought about all the people he had met so far and how much conflict there own morality had caused between them, from the fanatical Okor, to the overly kind Raina. He had wondered if this verse was some kind of hell filled with only honor bound fools and bleeding hearts. But now he had met a king with ambition and the power and charisma needed to rule. It was a good sign.

"As for that favor call it a...freebie, an example of my work and how useful it can be to your cause, after all I do believe the weapon obtained from that little infiltration served you well, all I ask in return is that you allow me to keep serving you and your kingdom."

A servant came back into the room carefully handling a rather expensive looking bottle of wine and two golden goblets, as he hurried over to Victor, clearly showing the signs of stress that must come with serving a powerful king. The servant poured both goblets and passed them on to both men before leaving the room. Victor took a sip of the aromatic liquid, it tasted like haven on his taste buds.

"You have your servants trained well, this is a great choice of drink for this sort of situation. There is one more thing I need now that I think about it. I need information and targets. If I do not have a target then I am no better than your common serial killer, and we both know I am better than that."

Victor joked hoping Gilgamesh would see the funny side.

"So my lord, tell me, who are the enemies of this kingdom? And who should I put on my list as my second target as the assassin of New Babylon? After all I am sure there are people who you simply do not have the time to deal with yourself and my blades are always looking for something to dig into."

Victor continued to drink the wine awaiting a response from the king.
