William tidied up sufficiently and hurried downstairs to meet the mayor of my den with a question mark on his face."What does the mayor of this town have to do with me? Maybe it has something to do with the assassins I killed earlier. It's bad if that's the purpose of coming here," William said in his heart.He arrived at the hotel lobby, looked around and found Rudolf Ophiuchus sitting casually in a chair with a glass of coffee in his hand.William approached, "Excuse me sir, were you looking for me?"Rudolf paid close attention to William's appearance, from his toes to his hair. William was tense at first, he was not used to being watched so closely. But a moment later Rudolf was smiling."William...you've grown up," Rudolf's first sentence made William wonder."I'm sorry, but have we ever met, sir? I think you know me very well," William said."Sit down," Rudolf ordered.William complied and sat across from Rudolf. The man then raised his right palm and revealed the ring he was we
William then said that his father-in-law experienced symptoms similar to those of people affected by Hudiya poison. Starting from the symptoms of the mysterious illness suffered by the father-in-law to the vulnerability of the time are all similar."From your story, I can confirm if your father-in-law was indeed exposed to Hudiya poison. The symptoms may vary from person to person. But this poison has one thing in common, which is that it definitely attacks breathing." Rudolf said.He then took another sip of the coffee in front of him, "You're lucky William, your father-in-law is still alive. But you better hurry. Because the susceptibility of death from the poison is only about one or two years.""So where can I get the antidote?" asked William.Rudolf Ophiuchus paused, it was obvious that he was thinking to find the most appropriate answer, "Actually this is a strange coincidence. I just gifted you an object and now that object is the main key to getting the antidote to Demiand. "
Having given his advice, Rudolf left. He left William alone in the hotel lobby with some thoughts. He ordered a cup of coffee to refresh his mind, which was now like an unraveling tangle of threads.He thought of a number of ways and possibilities to negotiate with Mr. Demiand. The only instruction was to treat Mr. Demiand as a merchant selling goods. Demiand as a merchant selling goods. This meant that he could only exchange the ten fingers of the 'Mad Priest' Gremory Rasputin for the antidote. But if he did that, his goal of turning Charlotte and avenging his mother-in-law would not be achieved.This is certainly a dilemma for William. He must choose between revenge and wealth or the life of his father-in-law.Raven Kingslayer's face flashed in his mind, William remembered the pain he felt when he lost his father, "I was stupid. I shouldn't have to worry about this," William said to himself.Back in his mind, he said, "There is no way I will let Charlotte experience such a bitter lo
"Do you think you can scare me with your nonsense?" said the hotel receptionist as she picked up the phone, "but okay, I'll call the mayor's office. If your words are not proven, you will have to work here for two months without getting paid. Keep that in mind."The hotel receptionist then made a phone call to the mayor. Of course, it was not the mayor who answered the phone, but the staff of the Denriku City Government Office. Several times, William's name was mentioned in the receptionist's sentence. A few moments passed before the receptionist was connected directly to the Mayor of Denriku, Rudolf Ophiuchus.The receptionist's face originally showed a confident arrogance. There was no way an outsider like William would be able to recognize the mayor. But that confident face collapsed a few seconds later. From confident to flat to slowly pale and fading until she looked like a living corpse.The receptionist slowly hung up. She was stunned for a moment until she suddenly lowered her
Speaking on his knees, the assassin hired by James said, "We did not know you were coming here. Forgive us for trying to harm you, Lord of Shadows.Then he continued, "For our foolishness, we are willing to suffer any punishment from you.William knew that the cause of all this must be his father's ring. The assassins must have mistaken him for Raven Kingalyer, the former Lord of Shadow. Not wanting to waste the opportunity that had magically appeared, William tried to act like a lord."Stand up, all of you," William commanded.He did not expect that with one sentence the most elite assassins hired by James would immediately follow his orders without a single word of refusal."I'll spare you for now, because I need to get to the surface," William said.The leader of the top killers asked, "Then what are we going to do with these fools, sir?""ehmmm.... "While William was still thinking, James was thrashing around, begging for forgiveness, "William, please forgive me. Aren't we friends
The gatekeeper then opened the gate for William and Charlotte, who had just arrived home. They had not even set foot in the house before they were met with a terrible welcome. "Where have you been? I called you dozens of times and you didn't answer. How nice of you, Charlotte. Going two days without a word leaves all the work behind," Emma told Lysander. "I didn't leave any work behind, mom. It's all been taken care of by my assistants. They can't possibly cause any trouble because my paperwork is organized. So they should be able to do it easily." Charlotte replied. "That's what I mean about leaving work! You leave it to your assistants while you go and have fun. Don't you think because this scum worked for the Salazar Group that you can get away with anything?" Emma's anger boiled over as Charlotte began to contradict her. "And you think that's all you're doing?! Since you're not going to the Jaeger Company's birthday party, it's your job to take your younger siblings to find a s
"Where are you going, Charlotte?" asked Emma Lysander when she saw Charlotte all dressed up and standing at the front door."To the Jaeger Company's fiftieth anniversary party, of course, ma'am." Charlotte replied.Emma Lysander's face immediately turned red, "Didn't I forbid you to attend?""Is your mind so confused that you forgot you were forbidden to go?" said Michael."Father only forbade me to interfere. He didn't forbid me to be there." Charlotte argued.Liliana, who had suddenly come out of the house, cornered Charlotte, "Do you not understand what this means, sister? Are you really that stupid or an idiot?" Liliana's face showed a very condescending expression, "Not interfering also means you can't come, sister. Gosh, I didn't expect to be related to you."William could not bear to hear his wife being reviled by his own family, so he defended Charlotte by saying, "She did not come as a representative of the Lysander family. She came as my best man.Not stopping there, William
"Why are you out of breath?" asked Xavier, who suddenly appeared from behind the crowd.William and Charlotte looked at each other. Suddenly, there was anger between them. After a long search, the target they had been looking for had just appeared innocently, holding a glass of champagne in his right hand. Not only that, but a few crumbs of food were visible on the tip of his right lip. The signs clearly told us that while William and Charlotte were busy looking for him, Xavier was casually enjoying the party."Damn, I've been looking for you, Xavier." William said irritably."I even had to move High Hills to find you." Charlotte said."Hmmm, why were you looking for me?" asked Xavier.Charlotte replied, "I have nothing to do with you. The one who was looking for you was my husband, I was just helping him."William then threw a code to Xavier to say something so that his wife could stay away for a while. It would be dangerous for him to be seen commanding Xavier. For now, disguising h
