The one who had spoken was a peculiar-looking lord.
He was far from humanoid, more beastly, with two large golden deer-like horns jutting from the upper sides of his crystalline face.
Speaking of his face, it seemed carved from countless crystal fragments, each one a different colour and material, shifting subtly as if alive.
Though beastly, a divine aura radiated from him.
"As impatient as ever you are, Lord Valkhar," the lord who had spoken of Ryuk's patience said to him.
Lord Valkhar answered with another powerful scoff.
"I am not impatient, Lord Grynn, but more efficient."
"He smells like a killer, and has killed before, hence a killer."
"Get rid of him, meeting over."
Lord Valkhar roared out, staring at Ryuk with narrowed eyes.
The man's expression remained neutral.
Not even a flicker of unease crossed his face, despite the casual way they discussed killing him.
