Chapter 1157 Nice Try!
And then he and that statue appeared in the Fate and Destiny world.
"Wait, I want to speak with you about something…"
"Hush! You want to waste time, so stop it," William was about to mutter the incantations of the Mystic Art when the statue suddenly said:
"Don't you want to know news about the interworld links? Gates linking here with the outer world? Won't you need to learn about something like that?"
The moment it said these words, and William paused for a few seconds there. "That's why I'm forcing all of you to sign this deal with me. With my art, you won't be able to hide anything off me…"
"That's in case we know anything about that in the first place," the statue laughed, interrupting William's words, "don't take me wrong. We do know tons of valuable secrets. But do you think we'll let you gain access to that for free? Are you aware of the presence of mind wiping techniques?"
"Mind Wiping techniques require a very rare Brain Wave element, something that's considered a myth…"
"Not for us," the statue snorted, "or how do you think we convinced all of them to follow us unconditionally? We have someone who has this ability, and it's ready to wipe all of our memories if you continue to do this."
"You…" William dropped what he intended to do, and instantly focused on that statue, "if you can do it, you should have done it before…"
"We can do it anytime we want, but as you can imagine, it'll require a hefty price to pay… We can't erase selected memories, and that means once used, we'll turn into brainless pieces of rocks…"
"You already are," William evilly snorted, "and don't you think you are just bluffing too high about it?"
"We can try this out then," the statue paused, arranging its thoughts, as it knew this was the only and last chance it got to free itself from such miserable fate, "we can go back, and I'll demonstrate things over. I'll make my buddie erase memories of one statue, and you'll see by yourself how he'll turn into a dummy, nothing worthy at all."
"Hmm… Sure we can do that, but what tells me that dude of yours can't do it again? Like it needs to pay a price for using such an ability?"
"Come on, we controlled an endless number of people and monsters, do you think such ability has limits?" the wolf snorted, "if you want, I can let him erase the memories of everyone you gained, everyone around, all the masters on your side, how does it feel?"
William didn't feel intimidated by what the wolf statue threatened with. In fact, it made him curious, "if you have such power, why didn't you do it before? Against me?"
And when William asked this, the statue couldn't answer.
"Let me give you a hypothesis," William suddenly showed an evil expression on his face, "like my art here, your man can't force and wipe anyone's memory without getting their consent or approval to let him in. or else, with such ability, you should have dominated the world a long time ago."
"F*ck you!" The wolf statue couldn't control himself, as William's words were right on the spot, "at least we will wipe everyone's memories, including myself…"
"No, you got it wrong," William laughed, "you missed your chance in doing so. Right now, you all belong to me. I'll make sure to give you all the order to not follow that man's orders, or anyone's order to do anything bad to me or your memories and precious intel. So let me see how you'll do it then."
William didn't know how this wolf statue thought of this plan, exposing such a secret in such a way made it impossible for that statue to do its magic.
If it was him, he'd have wiped everyone's memories first, left only himself to bargain with. But it felt like that wolf statue underestimated him, greatly taking him lightly or something.
It was the single flaw in such a tight spot and good plan, and William was just very grateful that the statue made such a mistake.
"Now, will you lower your stoney head to me, or not?" As he got through this mine trap, William returned to do his business. His words landed, and the statue didn't say anything.
The rope appeared, and like how William expected, that wolf didn't reject the offer. Yet the moment they all returned back, he made sure to give the order clearly to everyone to not listen to anyone else, to specifically not listen to any memory wipe out offer from anyone.
Then he did the same, beat the Nightmare monster, before heading to deal with another statue. The leaders fell down one by one, and in just one hour, the ten of them were now following him.
"And now, it's all down to you," William paused his eyes over the miserably looking monster before shifting his eyes around, "but before that, I want answers to two questions first, when and where?"
"..." contemporary romance
His words didn't get any answer, and soon he started to explain what he wanted to ask about. He wanted to know where the portal leading out from here was, and when the reinforcements were coming.
"We don't know when they'll come," one of the ten statues spoke up, against what other masters here thought, "but they won't take long to arrive, perhaps in a day or so."
Masters who stood here and watched the show didn't get truly how fearsome William's art was. They thought no one could link and force anyone to obey him, but it seemed like William had a way to do it.
"And the portal?" William didn't find it weird for the enemy's coming date to be this near. Yet he felt from the tone of that statue that it was too late to think about running away.
"Well…" the statue that spoke, the one with a cow head, looked in one direction. It wasn't only it, but everyone from the leader's circle looked in one direction, the wolf statue.
