BXBX NOVEL Chapter 932 We Are Going To Drag You By Force!
"Why? Do you want to take me back to your city?" she didn't follow him on changing the topic, "I heard you live in two cities right now, which one will you head towards next?"
"The Scorching Lands city," William's answer was swift and decisive. It wasn't just the place where his guild's main headquarter was, but it was also too far away from here. And that meant if she had any idea about coming here, then she'd drop such thought.
"It's far away from here," she got the meaning behind his words, "will ask my father to let me go."
"Let you go? And the capital? And the kingdom?" William was surprised to hear how determined she was in coming with him.
"I'm… Very tired from all this," she said in a heavy tone, showing a side of someone who grew sick of his life, "I hate such a life as if I was living in a prison. Everyone around me is pushing to make me better. I don't hate this, but the diplomacy life… That's hell! It's a nightmare!"
"Your father needs you…"
"He is getting better now," she sighed, "I was carrying everything on my shoulders for years as he was sick and unable to lead the kingdom. But now he is very capable of doing so for decades! I deserve a bit of rest, go out and adventure the world just the same as any master would do."
"I don't plan on doing that," William felt like he got framed with her or something, "I'm going to close on myself and train!"
"A very peaceful life indeed, I want it!" and unlike what he thought, she kept sticking to his side no matter what he said or did.
"Go and talk with the king first," William had no other choice but to leave this matter to the king to handle, "if he says no then I got nothing in my power to do."
"And if he says yes?" she evilly looked at him, and William felt like she already spoke with the king to have such confidence.
"Then welcome onboard," if the king's daughter wanted to come with him, then why would he say no? It might be quite problematic later on, and he didn't know if she was a hard worker or a troublemaker, but she'd still be quite valuable to him.
"I knew it, hahahaha!" she laughed, and William didn't know why but he felt like she was laughing at something entirely different than coming with him.
"What shall we do now?" as the issue of Anjie got solved, Lina suddenly asked.
"What else? I heard there is going to be a grand festival soon enough to celebrate this victory. Let's join it, please," Karoline tugged on William's arm, and the latter couldn't help but nod.
They kept stressing themselves for too long already. And it was just perfect to get little rest between all this. As he agreed, Karoline started to shout and jump in delight, telling everyone in the team and masters who came from the other world about the upcoming festival.
As for where they were going to stay, William decided to return to his cave and continue checking the rings. He got a lead about the culprits behind such an attack, and yet he'd say no to any more loot.
The three girls decided to join his team and other masters, continuing to loot the gears, rings, materials, and cores from the vast battlefield.
Anjie was surprised at first, but she grew used to doing this. At the same time, she felt like she was doing something new, something she'd never expected herself to do. And doing something this different was enough to make her feel refreshed.
William's friends already knew her. Despite the old bitter memory of sending them towards the other world, they knew why she did it and they also agreed to do so at some point.
So they warmly welcomed her, as if they were welcoming an old friend. This helped her to get into the team without any issues, and Sara became her best friend out of all.
William left them to have their fun, while he did what was amusing to him. At some point, he felt that checking through rings, collecting their content, and organising these, was some sort of meditation act for him.
All the loot he gained was stored in separate rings according to their value and type, all but the scrolls. They were all sealed, and he gathered a large pile of them on one side.
These were all sealed by the darkness element, and he decided to go through them in one go. By the time he finished checking the rings, he got a calling to join the festival.
"Go and have fun, I won't be free this evening so won't be able to make it," he hated festivals and celebrations, seeing them as a sort of distraction.
[Come on! We are all going, and you won't? There isn't any war to fight, no enemy to worry about. Why won't you join? Huh?] Berry shouted as if she was displeased with his strict nature.
"Sorry, but I can't go. Have fun and enjoy your time," even when others spoke to him to persuade him, he didn't budge an inch. To him, being here was much better than wasting time on useless celebrations and fun.
He was a strict spirit master indeed, and that wasn't his fault. He experienced too much in life, either now or during the previous one. He would prefer to spend every single moment in training than going to the festival.
[We are coming and will drag you out by force if needed] yet unlike what he expected, Sara suddenly said through her Bullet, [come on your own will, better than seen dragged by all of us!]
"You…" William didn't see that coming.
