"Well it couldn't hurt to try," a member of the Loki familia mumbled approaching Domnus stand.
"No it certainly cannot," Domnus mumbled in return.
"So," the familia member said, "Healing potions huh?" she said reaching to grab the potion on display.
"Yes, would you like one?" Domnus replied pulling the display potion out of reach of the familia member.
"If I were to ask for a potion to heal some scratches on my back, what would it cost?" she asked.
"If you were to ask that I would say it would cost twelve thousand six hundred valis," Domnus replied.
"And if you said that I would buy it," the customer replied.
"..."
"..."
For a few moments, Domnus and the customer sat in silence looking at each other, before the customer turned around and left.
Domnus was not sure what to say, then another customer from the Loki familia came up to him.
"I heard from a friend of mine that you sell potions for around twelve thousand valis?" the new customer asked.
"Twelve thousand six hundred yes sir!" Domnus replied happy that his talking efforts were not wasted.
"That sounds like a good deal!" the new customer said putting his hand into his pocket to grab his valis.
"Nice to do business with-"
"WAIT!" the voice of a goddess yelled catching the attention of everyone around, including Domnus and the customer.
Loki was running at her top speed to get to where Domnus and his customer was.
And Loki's top speed was getting carried by a member in her familia. Because you know, five foot five.
"Wait," she said once more, this time quieter.
"Can your 'Wait' wait, I'm conducting some business that will be over shortly," Domnus asked the Goddess as she was put down by the familia member that was carrying her.
"No it cannot!" Loki stated.
The familia member that dropped off Loki crouched down and whispered something into her ear.
"No, you can't leave until I'm done," Loki whispered back, the familia member standing back up as a response.
"So, what do you need?" Domnus wondered.
"I see that you're trying to sell to one of my familia members," Loki pointed out, walking up to Domnus's stand.
"Yes?" Domnus answered confused.
"To sell to my familia, I need a sample of one of your items to make sure it's safe," Loki told Domnus with a sly smile.
"I know what you are asking for, and no," Domnus responded.
"Fine then," Loki said, "Then you can't sell to any more of my familia members," she said loud enough for the familia members around to hear her.
Her familia members didn't really have a reaction, most of the people there hadn't bought anything from Domnus.
Domnus however, was having the exact reaction that Loki was looking for, horror that he was about to lose a large amount of potential money.
But he had to weight the cost of giving a dice that if rolled could destroy the world to someone that will absolutely roll the dice in front of him, with the money that the Loki familia could give.
The answer was of course obvious, if the world were to end Domnus couldn't pay off his debts considering that the valis would no longer exist.
"That's a shame," Domnus replied.
A befuddled look came across Loki's face, but only for a moment.
"Fine then," Loki replied before taking a large breath in, "ANYONE WHO BUYS FROM THIS MAN WILL BE PUNISHED," she then yelled as load as she could while pointing at Domnus.
Familia members around Loki looked at what she was doing before quickly turning back around and acting like Domnus wasn't there.
"DID YOU GET THAT," Loki continued to yell.
"Yes Goddess Loki," various familia members responded.
"I SAID," Loki yelled taking another big breath in, "D I D Y O U G E T "T H A T!" Loki screamed at the top of her lungs.
"YES GODDESS LOKI," every familia member yelled.
Including, members still in the familia house, members having family dinners, something from Domnus's bag, non-familia members around the area, a single monster in the dungeon.
"Good," Loki huffed before putting her arms up.
In a flash the familia member that carried Loki there picked up Loki and proceeded to pick her up.
"If you want to reconsider you can come to the Loki familia," she proudly stated before pointing in a direction.
The familia member that was carrying Loki then proceeded to sprint in the direction that Loki pointed in.
And yet, had no worries. Why?
Because even though that all of the familia members answered yes, that didn't mean that they all understood what Loki wanted.
While the members near him were a lost cause, they wouldn't even give Domnus their stare, the people in the back of the pack of adventurers were still able to be negotiated with.
All he needed to do was wait.
-----------------------------------------------
"My Goddess is this really necessary?" the Goddess carrier asked, looking through binoculars at Domnus.
"Absolutely," Loki responded, "I need to make sure that none of my familia members are buying from that man," she said, "Now stop talking and keep watching," she then ordered.
The carrier simply sighed. They were watching from high up on one of the buildings that surrounded the merchant.
The merchant continued to try and sell his wares, he was able to sell a few potions. Three to be exact. He seemed to be excited by this.
However, none of the people who bought from Domnus were from the Loki familia.
"My Goddess, I beg you to think about this," the carrier asked.
"It has been an hour," Loki mumbled, "Maybe I could," she began to say.
"Wait," the carrier interrupted, "My Goddess there is someone from you the familia trying to buy from the merchant," the carrier told his Goddess.
"Gimme!" Loki says, grabbing the binoculars out of the carrier's hands.
Looking through the binoculars, Loki noticed one of her familia members talking to Domnus.
"That's one of the new ones," Loki said, "So she thinks she can disobey me and get away with it, unacceptable," Loki mumbled,
"My Goddess I don't believe that the new member heard you when you said," the carrier partly said.
"UNACCEPTABLE," she loudly stated before jumping off the high ground that the two were standing on.
"MY GODDESS!"
