Chapter 214 - Chapter 214: Sarah's Price

Looking at these strange liquids, a look of disgust appeared on Sarah's face, unable to help asking: "This stuff... doesn't look like anything clean."

"That's too impolite to say. In terms of purity, there should be nothing in this world purer than these joy factors." Hearing this, Faen waved his hand, then said frankly: "However, the side effects of this thing are indeed quite large, especially for a little girl like you with quite average strength~"

Saying this, Faen looked around, then picked up the rum on the table casually, dripped the joy factor into it, and frankly informed her about the side effects of these liquids in the process.

And hearing the side effects of these liquids, a look of solemnity flashed through Sarah's eyes, seemingly realizing this matter somewhat exceeded her expectations. However, after pondering for a long time, subsequent Sarah looked at Faen, asking straightforwardly and bluntly: "If so, why did you tell me this? For you, me eating it unknowingly would be most beneficial to you, right?"

"Actually the reason is very simple, you possess enough ambition—" Saying this, a smile appeared at the corner of Faen's mouth: "But lack strong enough power."

Hearing this, Sarah narrowed her eyes slightly, but then returned to calmness, looking at Faen in front of her and saying: "That is to say, you think you possess this power?"

To this, Faen shook his head somewhat helplessly. Then raising his arm, immediately a gorgeously decorated pistol inlaid with gold thread patterns aimed at Faen's head. Just at this moment, Sarah's eyes trembled, then she subconsciously cast her gaze at her own waist. The twin pistols from her mother's legacy, which should have been tucked behind her, had only one left at some point.

Accompanied by the trigger being pulled, Sarah only felt a blur flash by. Then she saw Faen's other hand landing on the side of his cheek. Subsequently opening his palm, a round copper ball was impressively emitting residual warmth in his palm.

Catching the bullet, there was no proud look on Faen's face. Instead, after looking at the bullet twice, he couldn't help clicking his tongue twice and shaking his head slightly, seeming dissatisfied with this way of display.

"I'm also regressing, actually having to use this kind of street performer's trick to prove myself..."

Not intentionally, Faen just felt helpless from the bottom of his heart. Compared to Piltover, the power level of Bilgewater was actually even lower. Take Sarah who became the Queen of Bilgewater in the future as an example. Before becoming the Queen, also after designing to kill Gangplank for the first time, she once negotiated with the Pirate Council of the island. In the process, accompanied by interest exchange, a grand banquet was held, but the final result was still facing each other with swords. And in that process, although Sarah displayed outstanding shooting talent, to be honest, just like that...

Put in places like Noxus or Demacia full of little Captain Americas, Faen even suspected she couldn't break defense...

Just like Riven could kill everyone on Gangplank's Dreadway alone and run rampant before. The overlords of such small places might have some achievements in cunning schemes, but hard power was often insufficient.

Thinking this, Faen closed his palm. In slow clenching, the originally scorching copper ball turned into fine dust little by little in Sarah's tightening pupils.

"Forget it, better speak straight."

Faen shook his head, then leaned back in the chair behind him, beckoning LeBlanc on the side to come over. Seeing this, LeBlanc nodded knowingly. Then with a face full of smiles, she untied the heavy cloak, leaning into Faen's broad embrace wearing a robe like lingerie. Then following Faen's gaze, looking at Sarah in front like a pet with an ambiguous look, just like looking at a future little sister.

And casting his gaze at Sarah, Faen said simply: "Although your power is weak, you possess ambition and are smart enough. And more importantly, you are not a pure villain—this is still too rare in Bilgewater. Choices are limited, so I am willing to give you a chance to manage the future Bilgewater for me."

Hearing Faen's words, Sarah's eyes flickered a few times, but then she shook her head with a chuckle and said: "You sound like giving me a choice, but do I really have a choice?"

Saying this, Sarah picked up the wine glass on the side and drank it all without hesitation. Almost the moment that wine liquid entered her body, Sarah felt an unprecedented feeling running wild in her body. Blood surged all over her body; warmth came from her lower abdomen. Sarah could clearly feel her body cheering, singing, and growing. This made a look of surprise appear in Sarah's eyes—to be honest, she didn't think everything Faen said was true. At least, didn't expect the enhancement effect on her body to be so obvious.

However, Sarah also knew the current situation, so she didn't immerse too much in physical feelings. Instead, after this, she licked the wine liquid on her lips and said silently:

"Your power is the capital for you to do whatever you want in Bilgewater. Although I don't want to agree to your request, I don't want to die yet. Before completing revenge with my own hands, no matter what, I don't want to die. Similarly, I don't want to risk my life in such irrelevant matters. So whatever it is, just take what you want. I just want to live, I want power, I want... revenge."

When saying these words, there wasn't much dodging in Sarah's gaze, but full of firmness, even saying hidden paranoia.

"If you can let me take revenge, then whatever it is, just take what you fancy."

Hearing this, looking at Sarah in front whose face was full of calmness but eyes hid paranoia, Faen nodded, then said: "Looks like you have been prepared to sell your life for a good price long ago."

"For bounty hunters, everything has its value. And for me, revenge is the greatest meaning of my continued living." Hearing Faen's words, Sarah didn't feel ashamed, just nodding and saying: "In the past, no one in Bilgewater could pay the price I asked. If you can, I am very willing to swear allegiance to you."
