Chapter 946 Knowing What Was Going On
?
The excitement didn't stop there! All of sudden, Ro got sudden support from the Scorching Lands city. When the city higher ups learnt about what was going on, and received the request from Sara's and Berry's grandfather to cooperate, they decided to support their native!
The city was already a bustling place. It might not be on equal grounds now with Lara's, but it held quite the power to push Ro to the front stage pretty fast!
"What the heck is going on here?!!!" Just after two weeks, William decided to go out and meet the team leaders, assess their performance, and see who was worthy of his support.
He expected the entire guild branch to be filled with tons of his masters, but he found none! Not a single person was there. And that made him feel quite peculiar.
"Didn't two weeks pass already? Did I come out a bit early or what?" He was puzzled, before deciding to take a stroll in the city. When he did that, he got shocked by the mainstream news everyone was talking about.
"I heard that Anjie is killing it!"
"It's Lara who is winning everyone!"
"Ro is also the dark horse in this competition!"
"The duo team is rocking it! They'll win, they surely will!"
"What's going on here?" William couldn't help but stop a few masters and asked them about what everyone was talking about.
He heard the names of his close girls, and yet he didn't get what everyone was speaking about. All he could get was that there was some sort of a competition, one that put everyone he met on the edge!
"Mate, where were you the past two weeks? Living under a rock or something?" the masters he stopped seemed to not recognise him.
"I was just training outside," William honestly responded, "so… What's going on with this contest and those girls?"
When he heard the answer, the detailed one that came from these masters and others who overheard the ongoing conversation, he couldn't help but get truly shocked.
"Amazing! They decided to use me as a betting chip without bothering to notify me about it? Let's see how they'll claim their proclaimed winning reward in the end," he evilly smirked, turned around and looked at the far away guild branch of his, "but this is great! I bet none of them ever expected such a grand reaction or attention from many masters in various places…"
William was feeling a little helpless about their bet. They decided to bet on which girl would be by his side for six months, and they did that without consulting him first.
He planned to close up and enjoy a peaceful life of training. And yet it seemed his ladies were adamant at doing something else.
"Let me entice things up… A little bit," he laughed while heading towards the guild again. As he arrived there, he took out Sloth's scroll and instantly told the latter what he wanted to do.
"Damn! You enjoy girls fighting for you, what a surprise!!!" Sloth was taken aback by what William said to him.
Sloth didn't know William very well, but he could guess a thing or two about his personality. He looked like a die hard master who was born to fight and kill. And for a reason, he felt Willaim's focus over dealing with monsters and dark masters quite interesting, and stemming from a deep grudge towards them.
"I just want them to have more fun, hahahaha!" William was really enjoying what he added to this contest, "make sure to deliver the news to all of them."
"Leave it to me," Sloth only needed to spread the word to the corresponding girls' forces and then it'd spread all over the world, "what are you going to do now?"
"I'm going to train," William stretched his body, "don't dream about going to that deep hole, or else you'll die out there without me."
"Tsk! You are a very annoying kid, do you know that?"
"Stand in line, old man," William laughed before heading into the main building that he used to train into. Just before he'd arrived there, he saw two familiar faces, coming out from one building on the side.
"What are you two doing here?!" William was surprised to see John and Karoline. They looked exhausted, as if they didn't sleep for many days and pulled long nights.
"Here, these are the reports we wrote down after studying the lists of teams," John tossed a ring towards William, yawning before adding, "I need to have some sleep. But I need to check on something first."
"You mean the ongoing contest?"
"You already know…" John already expected how William would react if he heard the news.
"The entire world knows, do you think I won't?" William rolled his eyes, crossed his arms, "why didn't you try and stop them?"
"He betted on Lara's win," Karoline exposed John without the need for William to do anything, "he said she is the best one with winning odds, even better with everything he got."
"You did that? Hahahaha! Serves you the best then, as Anjie is the one who is going to win, hahahaha," William felt like this was the fate redemption act over John for not telling him about what was going on here.
He was inside the guild branch all this time, and yet he never thought about going to tell him anything.
"Who said Anjie is going to win?!!" John's face went pale out of shock and horror. In response to his words, William couldn't help but laugh, shook his head, and patted the poor friend's shoulder without saying anything.
"Tell me boss, what happened?"
"I'm now your boss? Not something to bet with?" William raised an eyebrow, and John realised the mistake he made wasn't going to be forgiven by William quite easily.
"Please, boss, I didn't do anything at all but bet. The ones who started all this are these girls, not me…"
