<h4>Chapter 1154 Just Refuse</h4>


    It red at William, but this time it didn''t open its mouth or say anything. It wished it could kill William, but it knew right now it was impossible to do this.


    It looked at William, and thetter looked back at it. To William, he only and truly cared about this monster. As for the statues, they were just coteral bonuses.


    As William expected, the fight back there didn''t take longer than three days to finish. In fact, the king and masters out there could have cleared the enemies much sooner if they wanted, but William agreed with their approach.


    "You did indeed tame them, hahaha," Sloth, Fang, the king, and all the high-end masters were the first ones toe to William. They were able to see everything using their spirit sense and knew William was holding all of the enemy leaders back alone.


    It was remarkable! And even if they didn''t truly get what William did, or what the Mystic Arts meant, they knew these enemies were unable to do anything right now.


    "I''m d you are here," William didn''t respond to theirplimentary words and instantly jumped straight to business, "I need you to keep an eye on them. I weakened them already, it won''t be a problem to take care of and kill if they try anything funny…"


    "Wait… Aren''t we going to kill them now?!!" The king and others were speechless the moment they heard and got what William inclined by his words. So the king couldn''t help but bellow out on William''s face, interrupting thetter.


    "I know this may sound crazy, but I have a way to let them fully obey us…"


    "For what?" Sloth and others exchanged looks, while Fang shouted, questioning himself about William, "A good enemy is a dead enemy, that''s the thumb rule in life, for everyone, in every case!"


    "I know," William was totally focused on thinking about how to do it, more than thinking about their reaction to any of that, "but I can turn them to our side…"


    "For what? For what gain?" Sloth was the next to speak, "You know they are our enemies, our deadliest enemies!"


    "We need them!" William got fed up with others screaming in his face, "They are the enemy, and that makes them very valuable! Aren''t you tired of walking in the dark, fighting an enemy that we literally know little about? They will be our gate, the source of tons of extremely important intel. We won''t fight the enemies on their terms anymore, we''ll do it our way from now onwards!"


    William''s words left everyone speechless for a few minutes before the king said what everyone had in mind:


    "That''s a great reason and aspiration, but you need to first be sure they won''t betray or backstab us. Who knows, they may even lie on every single piece of intel they''ll give to us!"


    "That''s why I''m going to do it using my way," William didn''t get fazed or moved by what the king said, "I just need your help. Until I do it, they can still fight back and cause trouble. So make sure any troublemaker is put in their ces, under dirt."


    William didn''t stop anymore to speak with them. He knew they had tons of unanswered questions, and he had no patience to exin or give any answers.


    He waited for them for days and wanted to get rid of this problem. Not to mention using the art over every one of them was time-consuming, and he still didn''t know if he''d suffer anything in return.


    There were hundreds of these statues here, and that wasn''t a simple number. "You, get ready," William pointed towards the Nightmare monster.


    He did all this to get this dude, and he didn''t want to risk losing more time, for any enemy to appear out of nowhere. So he picked it first, and the Nightmare monster was still feeling hesitant about all of this.


    "I won''t do it… I won''t follow you as a servant…"


    *Blop!*


    The next instant, William shed, moved, and attacked, hit that monster in many ces, and broke its arms and limbs again.


    "Stay down there and reflect," William had no other choice but to do this. Thest enemy here he''d want to kill would be this monster. So he decided to keep it lying down for now, and selected one of the statues, "you, get ready, once I''ve started, you''ll hear a calling, and answer with approval, or else…"


    William simply moved one of his tails, to cross his long and cylindrical neck in a threatening move. He didn''t forget to point with other tails toward the directions where other statues got demolished and crushed by him.


    The statue picked by William wished it didn''t join this group ever in his life. Yet there was no value or benefit in regret, and all it could do was silently watch while weighing in its mind the odds, risks, and benefits of William''s offer.


    Like others, the statue got the offer though the first thing about rejecting William. But soon when he recalled how brutal he dealt with everyone who rejected him before, killing all, with only that monster as the sole exception, then the mere thought of rejecting William was negated at once.


    The statue had only one choice, one path to follow, the same as others. Refusal meant death. They couldn''t hold a candle in front of William, and now there were lots of others on his side, not looking any weaker than him.


    [Just do it and refuse] just before William would finishying down the organs and materials needed for this Mystic Art around the statue, it heard a voice ranging in its head, [We''ll handle others here, create chaos for us to escape. Juste back as fast as you can, got it?]


    [Yes, wolf boss] The statue William selected wasn''t of a high standard in themunity of statues here, and the one that spoke to it was the wolf statue, their current leader.
