Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

Even her soul trembled when William said such words in such a way.

He was doing this for her! These words were very simple, yet they carried the weight of the entire world inside. And as a little girl, her heart was still pure and didn't experience much in that part of life yet.

"I… See…" Understanding what was obvious from William's words, the fourth elder couldn't help but accept such irrational logic from this kid in front of him.

Even if he showed shining moments as a genius, a kid was a kid after all. Even if William showed many signs of being an outstanding genius, he still was a kid who would place his heart above anything else, even his life itself.

For the fourth elder this was something silly. Yet from the words and actions of William, he could ascertain his sincerity and didn't question it.

'Sorry about that,' as for William, he wasn't oblivious to what his words would bring to everyone here. But it was the only fool proof way to extricate himself from further doubts and interrogation.

He grew tired from this. Not to mention they were wasting precious time.

His reasons for doing this were much grander and held more logic, but they'd cause more trouble than help if he ever expressed them. For a kid like him, one who lived his entire life as a mere porter, it didn't make sense to speak about the role of the clan in fighting the dark spirit masters and monsters in the future, or even speak about things yet to happen.

It was more logical and expected for such a no named kid who lived in the shadows his entire life to have something for such a princess on his side.

It made all sense, even if it wasn't all true. Yet William decided rationally to use such an excuse, without having that much regret.

After all, Berry was indeed a far-reaching princess from someone like him without doubt.
"Cough," feeling weird at the spot, the fourth elder knew he shouldn't delve more into such matters, "so I should leave you to do your business."

"Fourth elder… May I ask for something?" William wouldn't let that fourth elder run away this fast. He took all this trouble not just to extricate himself from death, but to also take advantage of the other party.

Hearing the last words of the elder drove what least could be described inside him as an instant scare!

What surprised William was how fast the fourth elder decided to run away from here. It was as if such matter would bring great trouble to someone like him. And being away from William and Berry was like staying away from land filled with mines.

'What? Don't tell me her father is this hard to reason with!' William felt helpless inside. If he decided to tell this lie, then he should keep the act till the end.

As for Berry's father, he already met and defeated him before. Of course, he was a tough man to deal with, but wasn't there that grandfather who invoked fear in such a person?

Least to William's knowledge that the real threat didn't come from Berry's father, but her grandfather!


"Ask for what?" The fourth elder wanted to leave here as fast as possible.

"It's like this… What I wanted to create is something that won't cost the clan any big loss. As you heard, I just asked for a bunch of arrows and spears alongside two of the most common materials."

"And?" the fourth elder urged with his eyes, limiting his responses to just one single word.

"I lack manpower," William paused before adding, "I need one hundred more."

"One hundred? Do you think this is the right time for that?"

Even if the fourth elder placed what William said in his mind, he still saw it as a mere theory to guard against. The possibility of what William claimed to happen wasn't that much higher than zero point one percent in his mind.

And he needed to wait for the early waves of the monster to arrive to make up his mind about this entire hypothesis.

"I need more hands. Or else if things go south, I won't be able to do anything big."

"This… Fine, I'll give the order and relocate one small team over," the fourth elder knew if he didn't comply, William would keep pestering him, "they are fifty spirit masters of the silver grade. Don't dream of getting anymore at such a time."

Even before William would say anything, the fourth elder used the advantage of his high cultivation and soared in the direction of the walls, rapidly running away.

'I just wanted to thank him!' From behind, William couldn't help but feel surprised by such a fast runner.

He wanted more spirit masters to help. And frankly speaking, he thought he'd be lucky to get twenty more spirit masters at most.

He knew the fourth elder would hustle about it, so he asked for one hundred to get twenty.

Yet he ended up getting fifty, all in silver grade. And that made him heave a sigh of relief.

'It can be done!' He clenched both fists tightly before tuning to Lang, Claine, and others.

From the look on their faces, he could sniff what they were thinking about. They got an ashen white face, knowing that they screwed up just now.

Even the elder they asked help from, the hardest ever person to deal with in their clan aside from Berry's grandfather, didn't stand up for them and just left them here for their fate.

And from the fiery look on William's face, they misinterpreted it for him having ill intentions of revenge against each one of these spirit masters.

"William… You do know they were just worrying about the clan and me, right?" From the side, Berry also got confused with William's expression. She couldn't help but tug on his porter clothes and say these words for them.
