The statue totally believed his boss, never imagined it was a trap, and it fell directly into it.

William finished laying down everything, and then started to use the Mystic Art. The moment he did, he and the statue appeared in the Fate and Destiny world.

"This is new…" The moment William arrived there he found out something new there. The world was filled with fog like before, and it had weird buildings.

They looked like small two-floor buildings, with dome-shaped tops, and seemingly similar to each other. All of these buildings were white in colour, shining bright in a linear fashion, showing off the blocks that built them. 

William could see a grand gathering of these buildings, stretching to the end of his eyesight. The buildings went everywhere as if he was standing in the middle of a giant space.

This was the first time for he to see this. And before he'd check anything, the statue appeared. It was still huge in size, but it wasn't that huge anymore compared to the buildings around.

"You got a building, and I also have one…" William noticed that the moment this statue appeared, it came on top of a dome, standing on top of a building.

And that building shone in a different colour, while he noticed he was standing on top of another building, one that started to shine in the same colour as that statue.

This was a pale golden colour, and William tried but he couldn't control any of this. The two buildings shone, while others looked like they were in a dormant stage.

"Where is this? What happened?" The statue got scared the moment it appeared here. But it regained its calm the moment it recalled the words of the wolf statue, alongside what William said.

"We are going to initiate a deal with the two of us," William paused before he muttered something, the mantra for the Mystic Art he was using, "Get ready, you'll need to accept this…"

"I don't!" out of the blue, the statue bellowed like this. The moment William said the incantation of the Mystic Art, a sort of rope came out from the building, moving towards the other building that the statue stood on top of.

But the moment the statue issued his rejection, the rope seemed like it bounced off the building. William heard a soft cry as if something was regretting the failure of the rope. Then the rope itself broke into many butterflies of golden specks of light, before William felt an irresistible rejection force, pushing him and that statue out from this space.

"Cough! Cough!" The moment William returned back, he felt terrible! He coughed blood, leant on four, and couldn't take his breaths regularly.

"It's great I asked for their help…" William didn't take more than a few seconds to control himself. It wasn't the first time he suffered a backlash, and this one wasn't that severe to begin with.

In a few seconds, he felt a lot better. And then he turned his eyes, looking in a cold way towards the statue, "You are a dead piece of rocks…" he said it as if he was issuing the death sentence to that statue.

The latter was scared and shocked the moment it got back. It felt terrible, just like how William felt. And yet that wasn't what baffled it.

It did what the fox statue ordered, and it totally trusted the words of its leader. And yet, instead of finding a bloodbath here, it found everything looking normal. There wasn't a single difference here, nothing changed. And it realised it got played by the wolf statue.

"You…"

"Die!"

William didn't give the statue any room to continue its words. He didn't need to even ask, as he knew this was all the doing of the wolf statue.

The moment he could move, he flashed and smashed that statue using his tails. The statue was already weakened, and now it was much weaker thanks to the backlash.

Unlike him, this backlash was more severe over the statue. And with one hit, it broke down into lots of small pieces of stone.

"Try to f*ck with me, and I'll f*ck you back," William turned to everyone around, said it in a vicious and brutal way that left everyone silenced, "You, it's your turn, get ready and make up your mind away from anyone else. After all, it's your life that you are bidding with here…"

William didn't give the poor statue any time to consider anything. He instantly started working again, taking out stored monster organs and getting them in the right spots.

As it happened before, the wolf statue communicated with the selected one. Yet this statue wasn't the loyal type, wasn't like the first one William picked.

"Accept the offer, or you'll perish," back at the Fate and Destiny world, William said in his piece, before muttering the incantations for the Mystic Art.

The rope appeared, and this time it didn't rebound. It extended fast towards the statue's building before it started to get thicker.

"A bridge?" William could tell the rope turning into a thick bridge, linking the two buildings together. This was all novel to him, didn't get what it meant, or if he should do anything else or not.

The Mystic Art scroll just mentioned this, and didn't add any details about anything else aside from the use and incantation used. In one hour, the rope that wasn't thicker than an adult's arm changed, and became a bridge that spanned for tens of metres.

Then William felt it. It was like a door was unlocked inside his spirit, and some sort of connection was established there. "Wow! It works on a spirit level… That's why they said no matter who, the moment this Mystic Art got used, no one can betray me…"

He didn't totally get the effects of such Mystic Art, but at least he felt a connection with that statue's spirit. He could severe it if he wanted, and he got the feeling that if he did so the statue would suffer a deadly backlash and die.
