Hector wants to propose a deal to Achilles that if he kills Achilles, he should return his body to the Greeks for a proper burial, and if Achilles kills Hector, he should do the same for him. Achilles, fueled by rage and a desire for revenge over the death of Patroclus, rejects this offer, refusing to consider any terms of compromise or respect for Hector's body. Instead, he vows to kill Hector and leave his body for the dogs, demonstrating his disdain and desire for vengeance.

How did Achilles react to Agamemnon?
He acted like a child. After hearing that his concubine, Chryseis, needed to be returned to her father (the priest of Apollo) Agamemnon's basic response was that if he had to suffer the loss of a concubine, that Achilles should lose his too. When Achilles became irate over this loss and refused to continue fighting, Agamemnon showed him the door claiming that he could still win without Achilles. Only the death of Achilles's close friend Patroklos inspired Achilles to fight for the Greeks again.
