Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

Thomas asked in a plain tone, while William looked around and added:

"We are going to recruit lots of people here. So, we'll need lots of buildings to serve their tasks. Come on, let's go outside, let's see if that grand battle is over or what."

This time, the entire world out there was different. It looked closer to what it looked at before the grand war started.

And there William noticed lots of angry faces. That told him a lot about what was going on here.

"You already started? Without waiting for me?!" William came to stand by Remy's side while expressing his surprise. This time, she wasn't alone, and got surrounded with lots of old faces, ones that William didn't recognise, "who are they?"

"They are my group's main leaders and grand managers," Remy didn't know how she should tell him that, but she had to admit it in the end, "they agreed on your move. And decided to come here and help."

"Oh," William expected that the Refos group wouldn't refuse such a grand deal. But he never expected them to go to such an extent, trying to solve things on their own, "and?" William moved his eyes around, "what's the result so far?"

"Not good," Remy's tone and expression told William how bad the situation here was, "news already spread, and that was enough to put an end to the growing battle outside. Everyone is flooding here and asking for a refund."

"I told you to let me handle this," William rolled his eyes, "why didn't you listen to my words?"

"We thought…" she sighed, turned for the other folks around to help.

"Sir William, it's a great pleasure meeting you," one of them indeed did take the initiative, stepped up, and cupped his hands in greeting, "I'm Tony, the general manager of the Refos group. And we came to help."

"I know," William knew these folks meant well, "but I'm the only person who can handle this situation, not you," he didn't stand there anymore, stepped up towards the angry mob.

"We want a refund!"

"What is all this? And do you dare to call yourselves one of the Big Seven?"

"That's an outrageous claim! A daylight steal!"

William got closer from the angry mob, moved until only the many rows of guards stood in between him and them.

"Oh, isn't he the one who issued all this from the start?"

"Let's grab him! Let's get him to empty out all of his rings! I saw him take lots of rings back then!"

"Yes, I also saw that too!"

"What are you waiting for, let's all do it!"

"Silence!" William heard such daring and threatening comments, but no one even dared to move a single finger towards him.

They all kept shouting and pointing at him, and William could sniff the scent of the other forces in the fort behind such a move.

And yet he never got fazed by any of that. He calmly stood in front of all of these angry faces, and added in a loud and clear tone, "I came here delivering a message from my master, the Fox master you all saw before."

When he said these words, everyone instantly got silenced. If a needle fell to the ground right now, then everyone would hear its ranging sound pretty clear.

"He asked me to come and deliver a message to all of you," William cleared his throat, before adding, "first of all, my Fox master wants to thank all of you. If not for your timely arrival and help, many of those despicable dark spirit masters would have run away. So, he sends out his gratitude and promises a thirty percent discount of everything sold from his place."

"Sold from his place?"

"What does that mean?!"

Just as William's words landed, everyone around started to whisper among themselves. William didn't hurry to speak, took a minute before clearing up his throat and added:

"As you all know, my Fox master was already a formidable spirit master before. But he went into seclusion, tried an ancient technique so he can reach the furthest point in our strength. And he did succeed! But from this battle, he learnt that a single man's strength won't change the entire world. And so, he decides to use all of his vast and priceless knowledge, form an alchemy and a Forging section here in his territory. He will personally lead everything, and he promises you great stuff, things that aren't even found at any place in the world. And for all these, he'll grant you a thirty percent discount for life."

William didn't even mention anything about the incidence of losing more than half of the bids here. He just used this chance to make propaganda for what was yet to become. And even the ones who he already dealt with, the three masters from before, got bewildered by such news.

"But…"

"We heard that most of the bids got stolen!"

"Yes! Who is going to take responsibility for that?"

"Deliver all the rings you collected, that's the least thing to do right now!"

William was now sure those who were still speaking about his earlier move to collect rings to be part of the forces he raced against before.

"If you have anything to complain about, then I dare you to come and ask such outrageous demands from my Fox master!"

"..."

His words landed, and all of those who were adding fuel to the fire got silenced. And they weren't alone, everyone here didn't even dare to say a single comment anymore.

"I gave everything I collected before to my master," William stressed over this point, "and he checked everything. There is nothing in these rings that contain what you all dream about. And if you don't believe me, you are welcome to come inside and meet my master with your doubts."

William knew using this card would silence everyone out of fear. Even if all of them suspected what he truly did, knew for sure that he got all the wealth for himself, what could they do in the end?
