When others saw this, they couldn't help but recall the deadly techniques of the high stage dark gold masters. Every single one of them was considered an army on his own, able to go within such swarms of monsters and kill their way through without any hindrance or danger.
As for William, he was delighted by such a result. He knew such technique was augnted by the newly acquired rge ability of his spirit elents. Thanks to using two fiercely hostile elents together, such a scary move was feasible and possible.
This technique wasn't as scary as his Holy Sword in terms of attacking a single or a small group of targets. But if he was in the middle of a huge army, the sa situation he faced multiple tis already, then this technique would be his killer move.
"You are full of surprises, Mr. William," when he got welcod by all of these masters, he was led back towards the central royal area. They led him towards the sa grand palace he visited before. But this ti, he was eting with the real leaders of the city, the highest-ranking big shots in the royal family.
One old man, with very scarce and coarse short white hair on his wrinkled head, sat on a big throne in the middle of a huge hall. William didn't visit this hall before when he ca here, and it was filled with lots of golden statues, depicting features of masters, seemingly the past rulers of this city over ages.
On both sides of this old man, two middle aged masters sat on halfway height seats, one male and one female. They looked identical, as if they were identical twins or sothing.
The three of them looked at William in a conflicted way, the sa thing that others who filled the grand hall did. William ca here with no na nor reputation, yet he managed to bring earthquakes to their world.
He first managed to read through the secretive scrolls stored inside their vaults for aeons of years, almost about to rot from the dense amount of dust covering them. Then he claid about knowing the way out of this world, sothing not even the craziest masters would dare to say.
He was just a kid in their eyes, didn't give any air of being special or anything. This harmless looking teenager was sothing else on the battlefield, turning to sothing monstrous, giving anyone seeing him a scare.
They received detailed intel about him from masters tracking him, but this wasn't anything like when they watched him fight in the flesh. The battles William had in front of their city's walls were an eye opener for everyone.
He was just a re gold grade master, yet he showed the prowess of soone at the high stage dark gold grade. Such difference in might was sothing any master would crave for. And his claims about having a master who ca from another world was like a spicy flavour to all this.
"I'm just trying to fulfil the task of my master," William humbly replied, waiting to see what this authoritative master wanted from him.
"We want to et that master of yours, if possible," the leader said, and this ca just as what William wanted.
"He is away from here, sir," William said this first, as if he was about to decline the offer, "I have to travel and bring him back, yet alone I'm not sure I can do it."
William suffered a lot in his adventure journey towards here. It was true he was weaker than now, with his powers being sealed and such. But if he could go back and bring everyone here with less trouble and worries then it'd be great.I think you should take a look at
He knew masters in this hall were all willing to help if he just asked. And he'd not say no to such an opportunity.
"If you are willing to bring him here, we are more willing to help," the leader didn't just say this to him, but moved his eyes while speaking, as if he was telling them to take part in this task.
The leader wasn't doing this out of his city's lack of strong masters. If he wanted, he could just take this task and throw it to his guards and army to handle.
Yet he wanted to use this chance to strengthen his relations with other cities in the continent. He was looking far ahead, towards the distant future. He knew his city gained tons of knowledge about the outer world, and with the additional knowledge that William provided about the interworld portals, the value of such knowledge just skyrocketed.
As the dark masters were quite united and strong, the leader of this city was wise to aspire to achieve the sa. And so, his gesture here to invite others onboard was going to be the steppingstone in building long tid and deep ties with other cities.
"I'm willing to join!"
" too!"
"Count in!"
Per the leader's invitation, many expressed their willingness to go. "Just give a day to rest, or two," William stopped them before adding, "after that, let's gather up at the main gate."
"You deserve a rest indeed," the leader acknowledged William's request, "go and rest then. I'll handle the arrangents for the force going with you."
"Thanks," William cupped his hands, not only to the leader, but also to everyone here before leaving. As he walked away, Angelica and Tara joined him. Angelica didn't say anything, but Tara kept trying to get more information from William without any result.
Angelica told her and others already everything that matched William's little lie from before. Yet she was surprised when William exposed the truth about coming from another world.
At first, she didn't get why he did that, but when she learnt about the entire matter, William said that his master just ca from the outer world, not him, she got what he wanted to do.
