Chapter 197: Chapter 197 - Unbelievable Words
"If I'm right then they are most likely spell scrolls. Who knows maybe there are other scrolls like enhancements and other types scrolls too I think." William said as he thought while holding his chin.
"Good and what kind are they? Are they special ones like the Dragon Arts?"
"What! No. I already told you that they are the same scrolls?"
"What scrolls are you talking about?" Delmar asked as he didn't understand what William was talking about.
"I'm talking about Dragon Arts."
The whole room went silent again but this time you could hear the faint sound of crickets around the environment.
"…"
Delmar didn't completely understand what his new boss meant so he asked again, "The same ones showing on the tv screen."
"Yep the same one."
"And you're saying that you have one?"
"Oh! No that's not what I meant."
Delmar nodded as he thought that his boss might have misunderstood what he meant but that was quickly corrected by what he said next.
"I have a collection of them."
Delmar had a blank look on his face as the cricket just sounded on inside the room creating a strange atmosphere but time he was not the only one who was like that as the others in the room also had a similar expression like him.
They could comprehend the fact that their boss had a very rare spell that was cost millions of dollars and could be used for many things. And the fact that their boss also said that he had a collection of that similar category was even more stranger to their eyes.
They knew that the boss had a lot of money but even with so much money one cannot easily get lots of dragon art items and more so a collection of them.
One has to have both Money and Connection which rivalled that of a royal family or many royal family's to actually have a collection of them.
But that might even come at the cost of declaring bankruptcy.
Delmar was both confused and shocked and as he thought about his bosses words for a long time he finally asked.
"You have collection of them?"
"Yes"
"Dragon Arts?"
"Really?"
"Yes"
"REALLY Really?"
"YES" William screamed out the words as it seemed like the man wasn't believing in them.
Even though William had to scream out the words Delmar still couldn't accept the fact that William actually had a collection of them.
So he did what was naturally something a man in his position would have done. HE LAUGHED.
He laughed hard as he did not accept the words of his boss and thought of them purely as joke. He then laughingly said to him.
"WOW What a funny joke Boss. I didn't know that you could also joke like that."
"You got me boss. The joke truly was something that took me by surprise. Collection. Like that is even possible."
The guards and tech people who also didn't believe the words that were coming out of William also thought that this was a joke. But the look that William had on his face was not one of jokester or even anger.
He just looked at Delmar with a look that didn't have any emotion in them and asked, "Delmar, Does this face look like the face of someone telling a joke?"
Delmar then looked at William's face before he coughed a couple of times as he straightened his posture and said, "Sorry boss. I think I might have said something too much just now."
"But in my defense, What your saying is something that is not believable to me and I can also say with certainty that nobody else believe what you said a while ago."
William thought about his words and looked at everyone around him and asked, "Are you guys also with him. What he said about my words not being believable?"
Nobody said anything to him as they looked at anywhere but his face as they couldn't do what he asked.
William understood what they were doing so he sighed and said to them again.
"You guys won't be wrong fully judged because nor am I going to take your words in anger. Just tell me what you believe.
Those that won't be answering and behave like an idiot will have their pay cut for this month."
They didn't trust his words about not being wrong fully judged but in the face of getting their pay cut, they couldn't keep their mouth shut anymore.
One guy who was a guard slowly walked in front and said with bravery but with a hint of fear, "I'm sorry, boss. I just can't believe what you said. It's not because I don't trust you have the capacity but it's just the thing is just… impossible."
"Are you guys also with him?" William as he looked around the room.
This time after seeing that someone had actually said the truth, all of them also said their true thoughts and some murmured out some words.
"It's not really possible."
"I can't trust something completely impossible."
"I just don't trust you."
"…"
A lot of similar words were said as William nodded and said.
"Alright thanks for telling me about what you guys really think and you."
William said and pointed to the guy who had first spoke to him. The guy walked in front and hesitatingly asked, "M- Me Boss?"
"Yes you. You were the first one who said it, right?"
The guy just nodded as he didn't say anything else.
"Good. I like people who are loyal, listen to words and are brave.
I am doubling your pay for this month."
The guy was first shocked before he became very excited as he said, "Thanks Boss."
Some people grumbled quietly as they thought about their pay getting doubled too.
"I know that you guys are also thinking about your pays getting doubled."
Nobody said a word but their facial expression said everything he needed to know.
"But I won't give you that. I will only give bonuses to people who are brave and can do their job skillfully. So if you can do those two things then you will be very happy for the rest of your life. Next time think about what I said right now and try to be more active."
His employees took his words as encouragement as they nodded and said in unison, "Yes, Boss!"
William nodded at their spirit and then asked, "Alright now tell me how can I make you guys believe that?"
Delmar said as he thought about his sentence, "Boss, Just do one Dragon Arts Spell and We'll believe you."
"That's it?"
"Yes, Boss. We'll know that you actually have a collection of them as you already have the money."
William thought about what spell to use and said, "Alright, The spell I'm about to use is an offensive spell so be prepared."
William thought about what spell to use and the only thing he came up with was one that was the most easiest to recognize as he casted.
