Dragon Master novel Maximilian novel Chapter 863

"Mr. Lee, don’t get angry. I know you may not believe the sudden news, but you have to believe me. I’m telling the truth." Harley explained in haste.

Hearing Harley’s words, Maximilian burst out laughing. Harley was nothing but a fence sitter, and how would Maximilian believe him? Harley’s credit wasn’t even worth a dollar.

"Why shall I believe you?" Maximilian questioned.

Harley looked a little embarrassed. Thinking of his bad reputation, Harley got straight to the point, "Actually, your parents are still alive, but they have been held prisoners by Dragon Queen."

Hearing the news, Maximilian hated Dragon Queen even more, no matter Harley was telling the truth or not.

Finally, it was when Harley said something about Maximilian’s childhood that Maximilian began to take his words seriously. In the past, Maximilian had believed that Dragon Queen was his natural mother, but later, Maximilian realized that Dragon Queen was definitely not. His natural mother must be somebody else.

Maximilian said nothing but plunged in thought. Harley ventured, "Mr. Lee, what I said is true. You have to believe me."

"If you want me to believe you, it’s quite simple. Tell me where they are. Once I rescue them, I’d believe you." Maximilian said flatly.

The moment Harley heard Maximilian’s words, he gave a bitter smile, saying, "Mr. Lee, you’re putting me in a difficult position. I overheard the news from Dragon Queen when she was drunk. How would I dare to ask about it?"

"In that case, you’re lying." Maximilian said in a nonchalant tone.

Harley rolled his eyes. What sort of logic was that? As long as Maximilian didn’t rescue his parents, then Harley must be lying. Harley had thought that he was the one being unreasonable, but never expected that he would meet someone who was even more unreasonable.

Maximilian read Harley’s thoughts and said with a smile, "I learn from the best. After all, the best way to deal with the evil is to learn from them."

"Well, give me a few more days, and I’ll definitely get that answer for you." Harley’s forehead was dripping with perspiration. He was trying his best to be let off.

Maximilian said, "Fine, I’ll give you a few more days. If you fail to get that answer in these days, don’t blame me for being hard on you."

Harley got delighted all of a sudden. As long as he got out of this place, he would just run away and never talk to Maximilian anymore. At this thought, a smile climbed upon Harley’s face.

Maximilian had long expected this. He stared at Grace and said, "I wonder if you have some kind of poison that will be ineffective once he takes the antidote within time limit. Give him one of those."

"Are you the daughter of the master wizard of Western Regions?" Harley’s face was distorted the moment he heard the word "poison". He cast a shocked look at Grace.

Grace gave a cold smile. "You do have a good memory. If you hadn’t asked someone to threaten my father, he wouldn’t have died."

Harley didn’t know what to say. He blamed it on karma, and today it was his turn to pay the price. He never expected that such a thing would happen to him too.

Now he realized why Grace hated his guts. Now that he knew the reason, Harley didn’t feel regretful at all.

Grace thought to herself. Instead of a quick death, it was better to have Harley suffer before he died. At this thought, Grace took out a green pill immediately and said, "After you take this pill, you’ll be fine in seven days. But if you don’t take the antidote in time after seven days, your whole body will go rotten."

"What? My whole body will go rotten?" Harley had also heard that the witchcraft from Western Regions was quite awful. But once he learned the effect, he couldn’t stay calm any longer. After all, he was the one to take the poison.
