Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

"This place is rottener than I ever expected," William thought to himself while he followed that worker back to his room. There he found people from Golden Fork restaurant just arrived, delivering food to Thomas.

"Just in time," William paused, stealing a brief glance at the worker before adding, "wrap everything. We are leaving."

"This…" such a decision didn't just startle Thomas, but also the worker standing next to William.

"I'm free to do whatever I want," William gave that worker an icy look. He might behave himself when dealing with the Transformers. But he wouldn't restrain himself when dealing with such a lowly human being.

William was wary of the Transformers, but he also knew their weak spot against someone like him. They couldn't force him to teleport to their place. And that appeared when they invited him to pass through portals and arrive there.

If William's guess was correct, then the main lair of these Transformers wasn't in the fort at all. And that added another layer of confidence to him.

"No… Not at all, but…"

"I got a mission to do," William didn't want to arouse more suspicion, and so he already readied an explanation, "a mission that I have to do as soon as possible."

"I got it," just from the nodding and expression over this dude's face, William was sure now of his deep ties with the Transformers.

It seemed Mark wasn't the only close confidant to these folks. And that made William engrave that worker's face in his mind, for later time.

William's hidden meaning was clear, he got a task from these statues, and he got to do it as fast as possible. So, staying here would delay him from doing so.

William then turned to Thomas. From a single look, Thomas knew how dead serious William was.

"Let's go then," Thomas turned to the workers of the Golden Fork restaurant, "move them back to the fox place. Sorry to trouble you about that."

William didn't even stand there for a single moment. He moved and returned back towards the lobby with his entourage, before leaving this hotel entirely.

He had two gems here that he wanted to acquire, but he now dropped any ideas about these. To him, staying away from here was the most important thing to do.

He knew the next time he'd come here; he'd be wielding his sword and gathering up lots of arms to his side. Next time he'd be here, he'd be here for blood and war.

He walked out of this place while Thomas was deeply puzzled. He couldn't get what happened except for one explanation he had in mind, his master got in a fierce quarrel with Mark. Or else William wouldn't have changed his mind so soon like this.

It wasn't just a change in mind. William kept his silence and even emitted a scary aura from his body while heading back to his territory.

In fact, William's mind was full of many speculations and thoughts. He didn't know if this fort was an exception, or this was just the tip of the iceberg in this world.

If so, then it would be easy to explain the swift fall of this world and the grand destruction it suffered before. And if that was true, then dreaming about getting out of here in one piece would be his highest hope in this life.

"Sigh! Even after returning back in time and having all these perks and advantages, I'll still end up putting a tail in between my teeth and running like I did before," he thought to himself, shaking his head before he finally arrived at his territory.

He didn't like such reality, but he wasn't also a delusional one. He'd only do things according to his limits. And right now, be pleased by it or not, he could best dream about running away without losing his life in the upcoming apocalypse.

He didn't notice what happened amidst his deep thoughts, but Thomas did. When they left this place, they had to use the help of the dark gold guards to secure a path for them in the middle of the people gathered here.

But now? It seemed that everyone here got to learn about their faces. And so the moment they appeared close to this dense gathering, everyone started to part ways and clear a path for them out of their volition.

"You came earlier than I expected!" and just as William noticed his arrival at the frontal area of his territory, Remy came in with a group of other merchants, "I thought you won't come here in a week or so, hahahaha!"

"I won't start working so soon anyway," William shrugged, "by the way, are there any numbers ready for me or what?"

"Oh, you do mean… The odds of the betting event so far?" she winked, before adding while pointing towards the big board, "your odds are the lowest in our group history of long betting events."

"That's good," William didn't even spare that board a second glance, "but I meant other numbers."

"I know," she laughed, before raising out one finger.

"What? Only one billion?" William was surprised by such a low number. He thought they had crossed it a long time ago.

"No, ten folds of that," she winked again, before laughing, "and we estimate the ceiling of this bet to reach fifty if not more."

"That's great," William knew he had to spend more spirit crystals to do lots of things after discovering the presence of Transformers in this fort, "let's go. I will slow down the pace from now on."

He indeed planned to do so to help in prolonging the betting event as long as he could. But on another hand, he wanted to take his time, search for that statue, and think about a good reason to give to those scary dudes and their dirty agents if they came knocking on his doors one day.

The easiest way to get out from such a problem would be by saying that he didn't find any statue at all in this place.
