Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

"Because… There is one thing written there that I can easily read…" Sara's face changed. And instead of the broken look on her face, she got a look that told William how determined she was. "It says: Dormant Spirit Element!"

"What…?!!!" William got an instant shock from her words. He just stumbled accidentally on her, got to meet her with pure coincidence. Him discovering her dormant spirit element was something not devised or planned by anyone or anything but fate.

And yet what he found just matched what this weird scroll said. William could only think about one explanation after getting over his shock and doubt.

'Don't tell me it runs into her mother's family spiritline?' This was the only explanation that made sense to him. And yet he knew this wasn't possible.

Getting dormant spirit elements was always something related to fate and pure luck. There was no heritage role at all in all this.

"Can I see it?" As he had a reason that could explain everything, but it wasn't realistic to believe, William had no other choice but to extend his little arm, asking for the bottle from her.

Sara knew she came here looking for answers. But when she met with William's extended hand, she hesitated.

She didn't even show this bottle to her grandpa, something she never thought to do with someone else in her entire life.

She took a heavy vow on herself, swearing that she'd never stop at anything to unravel the mysterious message left by her mother.

"If you want me to help, then you gotta trust me on this," William didn't know much of what was going on. But he could easily see her hesitation and struggle to give him the bottle.
She said a few shocking things about this bottle, and he got his interest piqued and wanted to read the content of the scroll inside.

It was expected for Sara to not be able to read the language used in the scroll. But William had infinite confidence in his ability to do so. After all, he was familiar with all the known languages in the entire outer world.

"Phew…" As if she released a heavy pressure off her heart, or as if she removed a giant piece of rock away from her chest, Sara heaved such a deep sigh while handing the bottle to William.

"You have to be extra careful in dealing with…"

"Don't worry, I know how to deal with old scripts like this," William interrupted her words the moment he got the bottle, "the best way to do it is to handle the scroll while using your spirit power at the same time…"

He didn't just do what he knew about how to deal with such old scrolls, but also spoke up, instructing and teaching her in that way.

Even if she got a way to do it, it wasn't going to be that perfect like his.

William did release his bronze spirit power, surrounding the bottle with his power before slowly opening the lid and getting the scroll out.

He didn't hurry to unfold the scroll and started to first cover the entire scroll up with his spirit power.

"Don't just use your spirit power blindly. Cover one hand with your spirit power, and move your fingers across it like you are gently caressing the scroll…"

William kept doing this for the entire ten minutes. At first, nothing much happened. But gradually and slowly, the folded scroll that looked like a dried up leaf that was about to turn into ash started to show vibrance.

The scroll was deep yellow in colour, with rough and eaten up edges like it got on fire before and was extinguished before destroying the entire thing.

As William's spirit power kept getting inside the scroll, these all changed slowly and started to shine with bronze light.


"This is it," William's eyes shone brightly despite feeling a little weak and exhausted from doing this, "the scroll got partially treated. Each time you do it, part of the damage inside will get repaired permanently. As for the rest of the damage, it will get negated and won't threaten destroying the entire scroll for now."

"This…" Sara didn't get what William did exactly, but the scroll did show indeed signs of getting partially treated.

Whenever she opened the scroll, she could hear the cracking noises of the folded pages, like it was this close from breaking apart.

Yet when William opened the scroll, nothing of that sound appeared at all, making her shock deepen. "From where did you learn such a technique? I never read such a thing before, not any of the treasured scrolls inside my grandpa's library."

"Is that why you locked yourself up there all the time?!" William couldn't help but get surprised, giving her a weird look while Sara nodded.

"Tsk! You did make a very wrong decision back there," William couldn't help but shake his head in disappointment, before returning to focus on the scroll that he was unfolding slowly.

"What do you mean?" Sara didn't get his point and didn't even understand how by staying at the library, reading everything inside and trying to solve this mystery was a bad move from her.

"A frog in the well will always see a small part of the sky his entire life if he kept himself confined down that well," William said, without raising his eyes off the scroll or stopping his hand movements.

"This… Are you saying that I'm a frog?!!!"

"Cough cough! That wasn't my point!" William felt his hand tremble when he heard what she said, to the extent of endangering to let the scroll fall off his fingers grasp.

"Then…"

"What I meant is that trying to get an answer to something that no one ever heard of before in the library is a grave mistake. It's a dead end, and you'll sacrifice your life without getting ahead a single step."

"That…" this time, he didn't add another word and left her to her doubt and confusion.
