Chapter 675 Yo, Don't Dream About Touching My Toys!
"Says the one who refused to share a few of what he gained," William rolled his eyes. This was the usual conversation between the two after that war ended.
[Just don't keep me and others waiting for long. It's already a circus out there at the front gate]
"For real? Then let anyone you trust start arranging things…" William never expected the response to his call to be this swift. Around six hours passed, and it was already crowded over there.
[No need, all the forces coming here have their leaders and formidable masters leading them. Just come and don't delay us]
"By the way, I need something from you…"
[Don't worry, I got all the big guns with me] Zin mistook William's intentions, thinking he was asking about the deadly weapons, gears, war supplies, and such.
"I don't mean that, it's something that you normally won't hold around."
[Like what?]
"Something called a cursed item."
[Yo, don't dream about touching my toys!] In a weird change in attitude, Zin changed from all the venerable master he was into a stubborn youngster or something.
"Come on! I just want one of these, and I heard you got a lot," William rolled his eyes, but Zin didn't change his attitude.
[I'm famed for a few things, this included. No way to get any of these from me. Just drop this idea, got it?]
"I can't, I truly need one of these."
[No way, just find anything else or anyone else to get these from]
"Hmm… How about this… I'll tell you the use of one item in exchange for one."
[No, this won't be a fair trade] William guessed why Zin acted like this right. He was after exchanging this item which he got a lot of with the knowledge of the outer world items, [How about this… You tell me everything about all the items I got and don't know a single thing about, then I'll give you one cursed item in return]
"No deal, I'll just find another master to exchange with."
[Don't try, there is no one sane enough to gather such toys but me, hahahaha!]
"The world is too big, old man. Don't say such dangerous stuff or else you may choke or something."
[O… Old man you fart disrespectful youth to your seniors!]
"Just accept it, one item for another, that's my bottom," William said, "if not then let's forget about this."
[Tsk! What a troublesome youth you are! Fine! Let's do it then. I need to go back and bring this stuff over. By the way, who pays for my trouble then?]
"It's part of the bargain, don't complain too much about it," William stored away the Buller before drawing near to the front gate.
And when arrived half an hour later, he was surprised by the scene waiting for him. Just the number of masters waiting for him was enough to reach the horizon and continue beyond! William stood at the walls and watched such a grand gathering, feeling more confidence at the upcoming adventure.
"I want to see how that dark academy can hold us," Zin appeared in an hour or so. William already sent for his vices, Lara, and a few of the leaders of the forces stationed in the city.
Zin wasn't the only exception here. Few also decided to join this crusade, in addition to many outsider forces as well.
"Did you bring it, old man?" William decided to tease Zin with such a nickname. And that got him a glaring look from the latter.
"I dare you to say it again if you don't fear for your life."
"Then give it to me," William extended his hand, not caring about the empty threats of Zin.
"No, you first tell me the use of one item," Zin acted stubborn, and William didn't want to hassle with such an old man.
"Let's do it this way then, you give Lara here the item you brought with you in a ring, in addition to an item you select from the grand gathering you got from that war. Then I'll tell you how to use it, then get the item from her, cool?"
"No trust in me at all, tsk! That hurts!"
"I don't trust old men," William laughed shortly before adding when Zin released his spirit power, "this is the teaching of my master. If you have anything to say, go and speak to her then."
"Tsk! What a twisted master she is to raise such a youth to be like this," Zin retracted his spirit power before tossing one ring over to Lara, "this ring contains the thing he wanted. As for the thing I want, why not select the most suitable item from the ones I described before to you?"
"I got a fish memory, can't remember anything," William knew Zin was acting smart here. He let him select an item, so he'd not be responsible for the true value of it. There were many useful items in that lot, alongside lots of useless items as well.
But the old man leaning on the short thick staff he bought later on and was made out of special ores and materials from the Turtles from before was smart to see through William's intentions.
So he decided to let William select the item he'd explain its value over, to make sure this youth wouldn't just scam him.
"You want a beating or what?" Zin released his spirit power again, making William face change.
"Ok, ok, I got it now…" William hurriedly changed his attitude. Zin wasn't simply a dark gold master but was someone who was at the very top of the pinnacle stage.
So, it was expected for his spirit power to be suffocating and hard to struggle against.
William described an item for Zin. it was something small, not like what the latter expected. Zin got a long list of different materials, with few at a huge size like the size of a boulder or something.
