Chapter 103 This Is All For Her

"Hypothetically speaking, it's correct," the fourth elder wouldn't dare to commit such a newbie mistake and just gave such an indirect answer.

"Then if I told you this monster tide is just a preparatory phase, and something much scarier lies far beyond, will you believe me?"

"This…" the look over the fourth elder's face was filled with doubt.

"I know what you'll ask next, how to prove all this. And the answer is simple, I can't," unlike what the fourth elder expected, William shook his head without giving any explanation.

"This… Don't tell me it's just a theory of yours!" At this moment, the fourth elder got the feeling that he had been played. And that made his old rage swell up once more with the suffocating pressure.

"Listen to the logic then, if my theory is false then by being here, we won't waste anything. Your clan will be able to fend off the incoming monster outbreak and no harm will come to anyone. Even the materials and things I asked for can't be considered valuable in any way. But what if my theory is correct? What do you expect will happen?"

William had to rush his words as he was getting suffocated with such crazy pressure. Even if he came from the future, and even if he possessed a mighty power before, right now he was just as weak as a kite getting fiddled within a violent tornado!

"This…" but just as he hurriedly blurted these words out, the face of the fourth elder darkened. He was lost in deep thought, contemplating what William just said.

Indeed, it was a crazy theory. As an elder who saw a lot in the world, he knew neglecting something just based on its unlikeability to happen was a grave mistake.

It was just like what William said moments ago. If he was wrong, then no harm would come to the clan and their little spirit masters gathered up here.

But if he was right… Then his clan would be doomed!

Such scary thoughts flashed in his mind when a sudden shout crisped in his ears while feeling an impatient tug over his clothes.

"Fourth elder, please release him!"

"Oh…" just while he was contemplating what William just said, he forgot to control his spirit power.

And that left the bronzed spirit master in front of him in a sorrowful state. William's face started to grow pale and blue from such suffocating pressure, while foam started to form in his mouth as his eyes swayed right and left in a scary way.

He was going to die at this rate and that caused Berry to scream in such fright, even daring to pull the fourth elder's clothes.

"Fine," the fourth elder retracted his power, "I can't say your crazy theory is right. However… I can't disregard it as well."

The moment the words of the fourth elder fell, they left everyone present in a state of shock and awe.

William said lots of things, but never gave single evidence on what he claimed. Not even a kid would believe him. Yet they were the kids and the fourth elder was the grown up man who saw lots of illogical misfortunes happening in this world.

To be safe, even if it'd make him look crazy and unbelievable, he had to take such a theory into his account.

"Cough… Cough…" as he was finally freed, William didn't possess any strength and fell to the ground. He coughed while rushing air inside his lungs.

This time he ended quite badly just thanks to his intention to help. Yet he didn't feel any resentment towards the fourth elder.

For someone of his status, he should place the clan's interest above anything else. And that was what William entirely depended on before opening his mouth in the first place.

Despite the course of this debate being harsh and risky, he finally got what wanted, the recognition of this elder.

"Are you okay?" Berry briskly moved towards William with such a distressed and awful looking face. In fact, her face wasn't any worse than William. yet the latter nodded his head while trying to stabilise his body.

"From your words and actions… I can tell you already know the nature of this scheme…" The fourth elder's serious gaze fell upon William, not caring about the miserable state he was in.

There were two possibilities out of William's words. However, when the fourth elder thought slightly about what William said, he realised that William gave many details to be just a mere fantasy.

The fourth elder felt like William was already aware of everything he spoke about, as if he knew about all these secrets and plans!

It wasn't that hard to link all these doubts together. And everything pointed towards a single and simple fact; William knew what was coming at his clan.

Even his clan's mightiest figure, the legendary patriarch, didn't notice any of this. Yet such a kid was able to think about such a deadly scheme, even coming up with such a move to prepare for what yet to come.

"I can't speak more, or else you'll keep doubting me and seeing me as a crazy kid," William staggered and struggled to stand up with the help of Berry.

"That…"

"In time you'll know. Frankly speaking, I pray to the heavens that my conjuncture will become false, and this will be just a normal monster outbreak. However…"

"It's better to be safe than sorry," the fourth elder nodded his head, "then let me ask you this… As an outsider, you aren't tied with us in any way. So why are you taking such trouble to do it?"

"This isn't for me," William got what the other party was inclining at. In an unexpected move to all, he turned to look at Berry on his side before adding, "this is all for her."

And at this moment, Berry's mind went blank for a long moment before her body shuddered deep within.
