Chapter 947 A Fortune Teller!
"Just man up and endure," William laughed, "anyway, I have an offer for you. How about you go and form a team, join this contest?"
"Me? Join the contest? But… What shall I do there?!!" John wanted to earn anything after the expected huge loss he was going to suffer would happen. And yet he didn\'t get what William wanted from him.
"You\'ll go out there and cause trouble," William evilly smirked, before telling him about everything John didn\'t know.
"Are you telling me you prolonged this contest for two months? And opened an invitation for any master, any master who doesn\'t belong to the guild, to help any side?!!! That\'s… Insane!!!"
John was greatly surprised by what William just told him. This was what William asked Sloth to spread. If the girls managed to attract such attention already, then why wouldn\'t he add more fuel to the fire?
Asking others to not just be watching from the side and actively participate would be a game changer! It would make all the ones who betted before to move and help the girls. And that would add more fame to his guild.
As for the extended time period, it was to allow for masters scattered in many vast places to come and join the girls they supported. Not to mention this long period would also lure many masters from the other continent.
In addition to that, the initial advantage the four girls had before would be greatly nullified. With such a great influx of masters to each girl\'s side, the final outcome would always be under question and great anticipation by everyone.
As long as the final winner wasn\'t decided until the last stretch of this race, William was sure this contest would attract more attention and garnish more hype. And that was what he precisely wanted to do.
He expected another surge of joining applications for his guild. Not to mention the fame of his guild would skyrocket to another height. On top of all that, the monsters and dark masters would suffer greater blows than what they already suffered.
The master world would see what it was like to fight in one grand force, how it was easy to crush any enemy if they got united.
William\'s revenge over what his girls dared to do without his consent was to make them stand over the edge till the last seconds of this contest. It was going to be a tough race, very close even for those without any backing.
"What about me? What about me? What can I do? I want to do something!" Karoline kept raising her hand and jumping, making a fun scene out of herself.
"What are you doing?" William raised one eyebrow, while examining the jumping little monkey Karoline turned into by what she was doing.
"I saw many humans do this before in the party," she stopped, feeling a bit weird, "isn\'t this right?"
"You have to admit, she is really something," John bitterly smiled, seemingly thinking about the hard situation he found himself in, "anyway, I\'m leaving now to do that task, don\'t forget about your promise."
"Don\'t f*ck up this time, ok?" William evilly smirked, before turning to Karoline, "You have a very long list of things to do… Let\'s go."
"Many things, hahahah, I\'m going to have more fun. Tell me, are we going to chew more of these scrolls or what?"
"What the hell did you teach here back there? Huh?" William shouted at John\'s back, and the latter shrugged and said nothing, kept walking forward.
"We had a lot of fun! He told me to pass him scrolls and line them up, as if we were chewing them…"
"And you did buy any of this bullshit! Damn! You have a long way to learn tons of stuff, and that brain of yours needs to be put in use all the time!" he poked her head, and she touched hers while touching out.
"Aren\'t we going to chew scrolls then?" she was puzzled while following him into the main building.
"It\'s time for you to start a serious training," William led her to a grand hall before turning to her and giving her a candle of light and a crystal.
"I love training! The last time I trained I locked up for one hundred thousand years! It was fun…"
"We won\'t do it for one hundred thousand years…" William\'s scalp went numb when he thought about what she said. He never liked training more than going out and fighting monsters and enemies. But he could tell she was really honest about this.
"What else could a monster like myself do?" she spoke as if this was everything she had in life. When William listened to her words, looked at her face, he couldn\'t help but feel sorry for the empty life she lived during all this time.
"Human life is full of lots of interesting stuff," he didn\'t know why he was telling her that, was it sympathy perhaps? He couldn\'t tell! "And I\'m sure you\'ll enjoy every single moment with us."
"I\'m already feeling so," her face beamed with a bright smile, "now, tell me, what do you want me to do with these two things? Play that game others played with you?"
"Game? Yes, let\'s play this game together," William played along with her, "do you remember how they did it?"
"Sure," she laughed, looking excitedly towards the crystal and the candle in her hands, "I wanted to do the same and play with you. Hold on, let me do it and you\'ll tell me my fortune…"
"And now I became a fortune teller…" William inwardly sighed, but didn\'t say anything back, simply watched from the side while she activated the crystal after covering it with the green wax.
"Here," she handed him the crystal, "tell me, what future do I have? Is it bright and great? Or just normal? Huh? Tell me! Tell me!"
