Chapter 1241: Unexpected Side Effect Of The Potions
"Hahaha, told you already, not interested in old ladies, no offence, hahaha," William took her words as a joke, laughed before adding, "I just want these two…"
"And you won't get any of them!" Sara's mother blurted out without any delay, "this isn't a deal I will settle on…"
"Do you need to be the Palace Master or not?" out of the blue, William suddenly threw this bomb over her face, making her face change at once.
"Hmph! As if you know what you are speaking about!"
"Lingerie, the legendary leader of your palace isn't someone I won't know," William's smile widened as he kept speaking, "you want her throne, but can't. I get you; this isn't a simple task to do. A failure means death, and no one ever touched a single hair of hers, even the strongest masters in that world, right?"
"Hmm, can't say you lied so far, still…"
"I know her deadly soft spot," William wasn't bluffing, but telling a story he heard before when he was in the outer world. He always felt Sara's mother was kind of familiar, though it was thanks to her for being Sara's mother.
But when he met Jenny, he knew why he thought she looked this familiar. In his past life, Sara's mother managed to kill Lingerie, ending up being the master of that infamous palace.
He even met and fought against her a few times, and that was why he even could read through her mind and anticipate her next move.
"Bullshit!" Sara's mother scoffed, "no one knows anything about any weakness about her, not even the strongest or the closest confidants of our palace know… This is total bullshit. Nice try though, I can at least give you that!"
"I'm not bluffing," William shrugged, before adding in a calm tone, "if you want to keep living the life of a servant, then don't bother with my words."
He didn't stop there, he even dragged a seat, sat and extended his legs over the bed, crossing them while closing his eyes. It felt like he never cared about what was going to happen to the two girls, neither worried about what Sara's mother would decide about his proposal.
"You are this confident that I'll agree?" Sara's mother possessing Berry raised an eyebrow in surprise and doubt. William gave nothing else but pure confidence in what he said, as if he was stating the truth.
And when he even ignored her words, she felt more concern about what he said. Without even intending to, she started to consider what he proposed.
To her, being on top of the palace was her biggest dream. Yet the only option she had was for the current palace head to die, and no one could kill her from inside the palace.
Lingerie was such a badass master that no one could rival or compete against. It was great when considering outsiders fearing them thanks to her. But for someone like Sara's mother, with her ambition to be the head of the palace, she hated this.
"Tell me then…"
"Not today, not here," William interrupted her, as if he didn't care at all about this proposal or was in a hurry to get rid of Sara's mother.
"You…"
"I won't say a word without making a proper deal with you," William stressed over his words, slowly opened his eyes and looked straight at Berry's, "you need to give me something to make sure you won't backstab me later on."
"An oath then…"
"No, tried it before and got scammed," William laughed, "nice try though."
"..." Sara's mother paused and didn't know what to say. In the outer world, a spirit oath was something sacred, but to someone like her, there were always loopholes to get away from it.
"What do you want then?" if an oath wouldn't work, she didn't know what was in William's mind instead. But she was sure of one thing, whatever this youth would ask for, it was going to be something troublesome to get away from it.

"It's something you own, carry with you, and hate to show it to others," William said something vague, something that seemed like he didn't know what he was talking about. Yet opposite to him, Berry's body shook slightly while the look on her face turned all hostile.
"I don't get what you are talking about," she said in a heavy tone, in a way that a kid could tell she was lying.
"Hahaha, you know it very well, or you need me to describe it for you?" When William said his last words, he moved his hands as if he was touching a female body in the air. Yet this body was too small to be a real human, mostly a doll or something.
"You won't get that, never!" Sara's mother gritted on her teeth and her tone showed how much hostility she had towards William right now.
"Not even curious to know how I knew about this?" William on the other hand laughed, as if he was enjoying such hostility from her.
"Fck you!" The next moment, Sara's mother's presence vanished, and Berry's body grew soft, falling on the ground like she had no spirit or power.
William flashed and grabbed her body before touching the floor. He looked at Berry's angelic sleepy face and sighed. "Let's see how long it will take for you to agree on my proposal."
William knew Berry and Sara weren't going to wake up without using his potions. And for a moment there he didn't want to wake Berry up. He knew Sara's mother would come back later on, as what he offered was something she couldn't reject no matter what.
"Screw it! I'll make them wake up and let that btch worry about coming to me herself," after a few moments of hesitation, he took out one of his potions, and emptied its contents slowly inside Berry's mouth.
Just when he did that, Berry's face started to turn rosy. At the same time, he could feel heat coming from her body.
