Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

But William didn't show any sign of getting worried or anything.

"Here," Alfonso took out five old looking scrolls, handed them over to William, "this is the ownership of Thomas and the other four. These four are out to do a mission for me. Once they'll return, I'll send them over to your place. By now, our deal is complete."

"Still missing my membership," William chuckled, and Alfonso patted his forehead.

"Forgive my rashness, I got totally absorbed in the Scarlet Bears issue and our deal. Well… I'll need a day or so to get the membership badge ready. I'll make sure to deliver it to your place once done."

"Thanks."

William knew out of all what he acquired from Alfonso, the five old scrolls he just stored in his ring were the most important gain from this deal. Even the piece of land and the vast buildings inside it wasn't even close to the value of Thomas alone in his eyes.

Thomas got a rare spirit element, one that was going to be quite handy if used right. William didn't meet anyone with such an element before in his past life. And that was enough to speak about how rare this element was.

But he already read lots of scrolls about techniques that people like Thomas could use. At the same time, he heard other stuff from his master on various occasions, making him the best mentor for this youth.

"Tell me, you said you came here for the Refos merchant group, for what?" and as everyone here got what they desired, Alfonso said while leading William back to his table and Thomas.

"I'm going to sell more of these cores out there."

"M… More! You killed more of them?!!!" This answer was quite unexpected to Alfonso. He thought that the twenty-one cores William got weren't everything he had. But he never expected William to get enough to go to one of the Big Seven and seek selling them there.

That meant what William got was way more than what Alfonso guessed before. "How many cores do you have?!"

"I plan to sell five hundred cores at one go," William casually said, turning to Alfonso as the two arrived at their table, "thanks for your generosity. Please let someone deliver the badge once it's done."

"S… Sure…" Alfonso stood by the side, watching the back of William getting smaller while his heart kept thumbing in his chest like a drummer was immersed in his performance.

The answer William gave to him meant only one thing; this kid killed at least more than five hundred Scarlet Bear monsters alone. This was something out of his wildest imagination, something he truly never imagined before.

Even at the few great monster tides he read intel about before, the ones that were led by these terrifying Scarlet Bears, the highest number of bears to die in any battle was less than a hundred! And these records were speaking about armies of spirit masters led by dark gold masters! Lots of them!

And here William was, a bronze spirit master, a kid that wasn't any older than eleven years old, and he managed to kill hundreds of them alone!

The way William spoke in told Alfonso that he had more of these cores! And these few hundreds were just the tip of the iceberg.

At this moment, Alfonso decided to go back and do two things. First, he'd take the technique to kill the Scarlet Bears William gave him and start dealing with it in a more serious way.

He decided to hire a team, a strong and capable team, the strongest he could ever find in the mercenary department, send them towards the nearest lair of these bears, and try these spears out as soon as possible.

And the most important thing he decided was to hire teams to go back to the Aspire academy and try to gather information about what the hell happened back there.

For William to kill this number, it meant it happened at a huge monster tide. And even if such news didn't arrive here yet, he decided to actively seek it out.

He wanted to know how William did it, and how many Scarlet Bears fell that day on his hands.

Without knowing it, he was destined to get shocked when the news about the grand battle at the Long clan would arrive in his ears a few weeks later.

William wasn't aware of any of this. He just walked out of the restaurant, feeling proud and happy about his recent gains.

William entered the Golden Fork place with Ro and got out with Thomas.

Thomas walked by his side like a silent statue. He didn't say a single word.

And that made William feel the ironic disparity between Thomas and Ro. One was quite talkative and the other was all silent.

William took out a Bullet and called Trevor, that dude who reserved his place all this time and never called back.

[Sir, your turn will arrive in less than half an hour]

"I'm coming then," William knew half an hour wasn't that much to wait. So, he decided to go there, stand in the line, and start talking with Thomas to get to know him a little better.

"I noticed that you are quite calm, aren't you even worried or something?" William started leading the way towards the Refos place as he began speaking with Thomas.

"I was like this since I was six years old," Thomas' tone was cold and monotonic, looking like a machine in William's ears, not a human.

"I can't guess what terrors you passed through," William's eyes were fixed over this dude's face. And even when trying to provoke the worst memories inside this dude's mind, Thomas didn't even twitch a muscle.

"You do know who your new master is?" William tried to find a topic where he and this dude could talk about to get to know him better.

"I don't care, masters change, and my tasks are always the same."
