"Are you done?" Belphegor asked JiJi in sternly having emptied his glass of spirit mushroom dew. 

"Yes, I have shared a copy of the contract with your designated pixie. Please check and tell me if the contract needs any more modification," JiJi replied to Belphegor. She had shared the contract with Ezra and Belphegor's pixie. 

Going through the contract both Belphegor and Ezra nodded at JiJi showing that they had no problem with the contract. 

"Now sign the copies of the contracts and share them with me so I can get the other party to sign them," JiJi instructed the two merchants. 

Signing the the copies they had with them both merchants shared them with JiJi who then exchanged the copies and shared them with the merchants so they could check the second copy of the contract and sign it.

"Now share the contracts with me so I can notarize them," JiJi informed. 

After receiving the two copies of the contracts signed by both merchants, JiJi checked them again for any malpractice before notarizing them. Then she shared one copy of the contract with each merchant. 

Receiving his copy of the contract, Belphegor conjured thirteen devil merchant tokens, and looking at Ezra he said, "Take them." 

"Give it to JiJi," Knowing that Belphegor had some weird exclusive privileges from the devil merchant code Ezra did not directly conduct any business with him instead used JiJi as an intermediate. 

After JiJi received the 13 devil merchant recommendation token, Ezra eyed Belphegor waiting for him to tell him the true name of Handsome Fox. 

Belphegor locked eyes with Ezra and then spoke up, "The foreign devil merchant that attacked you goes by the code name Handsome Fox but his true name is Gideon Grim." 

"Gideon Grim," Ezra muttered and used his demon codex to search for anything and everything related to Gideon Grim on the inter-realm network. He found a personal realm network belonging to Gideon Grim a devil merchant native to Card world. 

"No that my work here is done, I will take my leave. But Before I do that, may I have the honor to know your true family name?" Belphegor was someone who held grudges and considering that this dwarf cost him 13 devil merchant recommendation tokens, if possible he planned to return the favour to the dwarf. That would be easier if he knew the true name of the dwarf. 

Therefore Belphegor asked the dwarf his name knowing that now the dwarf and he had settled, the dwarf might have let his guard down and be more open to reveal his name to gloat about his victory. 

"It Foolhar," Ezra replied without a second delay. Seeing this Belphegor shook his head thinking it must be good to be able to be so sharp despite being intoxicated and he left the Exec. VVIP box without looking back. His pixie hurriedly followed behind him. 

As JiJi closed the box behind Belphegor, Ezra morphed into Wyatt got comfortable on the couch, and said, "JiJi, how much do I owe you for the drinks?" planning to pay the bill and head back to the physical plane. Now that he had a name and birthplace, it would be easier for him to put a face to Handsome Fox and hunt him down before Belphegor and his faction commence their invasion into the card world.

"First, how are you still able to talk so clearly after drinking so much spirit mushroom dew?" JiJi asked Wyatt in shock. Earlier when she saw Ezra drop a glass to the floor she thought he was done but now Wyatt appeared as if he was sober. How was that even possible when she watched a devil merchant pass out consuming half the number of what Wyatt drank? 

"Let us just agree that I can hold my liquor good," Wyatt did not go into the details about how he had a high tolerance to spiritual intoxication and repeated himself, "How much do I owe you for the drinks?"

Usually, Wyatt would ask the price of anything in the inter-realm city before ordering it but now that his VR-Universe was a huge success, Wyatt no longer worried if he could afford the finest in the inter-realm city. 

"You owe nothing, it's on the house," JiJi answered Wyatt. 

"What?" Wyatt was surprised to hear JiJi say that he did not have to pay for the drinks. 

"Wyatt, you are the first demon merchant to treat me like a friend by asking me to join you for drinks. Consider this as my treat to you," JiJi explained, since the pixie had free access to everything they could share them with the demon/devil merchants as long as they did not give away the books for free. 

"Wait, you don't have to do that. I don't want you to get into trouble because of me," Wyatt hurriedly expressed his concern. He appreciated JiJi's action but he did not want to get her into trouble. 

"No, I will not get into trouble for this so do not worry," JiJi assured Wyatt. 

"Do you other demon/devil merchants know that you can do that?" Wyatt asked because if the other demon/devil merchants knew this they would not be treating these pixies poorly. 

"Nope, they did not ask and we did not feel like sharing with them," JiJi replied nonchalantly. 

"You should tell the demon/devil merchants about this maybe then they will not go out of their way to trouble you guys and even behave," Wyatt thought that the Infinity library might have given the Pixie this privilege to help them get along with the devil/demon merchants. 

"No, doing that will not be fair for Infinity Library," JiJi shook her head vigorously, rejecting the idea proposed by Wyatt. 

Listening to JiJi Wyatt felt that the pixies were the perfect slaves since they were willing to suffer to save a buck for their master, the Librarian. Or they did not want false friends.
