Captivated by the Ruler of the Underworld

Josh Fudge, having just received an update from his team, reassured Burl, "There's no intention to delay. With the sunlight as it is, now's the best time for the game. Nighttime would only add unnecessary gore and danger." Sylvester's interest was piqued at the mention of danger. "Gory and dangerous? Sounds intriguing."

Noticing Sylvester's reaction, Josh Fudge became more animated. "I've heard Mr. Gomez is an excellent shot. It'll be interesting to see if he comes out on top."

Sylvester raised an eyebrow. "Are we talking about using guns?"

Josh Fudge hinted at a challenge. "Without guns, we'd be nothing more than sitting ducks."

He then addressed Trenton, "The firearms were purchased legally, all fitted with safety mechanisms. I'm licensed to own them. No objections, right?"

Trenton, with the air of a military man, chuckled and replied with a sidelong glance at Josh Fudge, "As long as everything's legal, I see no issue. You haven't broken any laws or hurt anyone, after all."
