Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

"How about you? Won't you train with me again?" She knew he made up his mind to leave now, but she didn't lose hope. She even held both hands forward, put a cute little expression on her face, while looking at him as a little girl looking to her best friend.

"Alright, will come from time to time," William didn't agree, thanks only to her cute looks, but also he wanted to experience this unique phenomenon a bit more. He didn't get yet what was going on, and needed to clear up his mind and test things later.

"You are the best," out of her joy she jumped, hugged and kissed him on the cheeks, "I will always await your return," she said these words, shouting while he was walking away.

William kept his smile while walking outside of this place. He already spent enough time here training others and playing with his new technique, enough for others to do the task he asked for.

"They aren't back yet? Weird!" he thought he'd find everyone waiting for him back at the headquarters. However the place was empty from any of his close friends and team. He looked around, with his eyes directed towards the direction of Lara's city, "it seems I need to pay them a visit myself."

The road towards Lara's city wasn't new for William. As he walked outside of his guild town, he noticed how his guild members were alert and active.

The walls were filled with masters guarding and patrolling even in the middle of the day. Streets were filled with tons of masters, who were training and talking among themselves about techniques.

William walked in the middle of everyone, unnoticed as he made sure to wear a cloak and hide his presence quite well. He avoided the main streets until he reached the gate, and there he had to show his face to let the guards open it for him.

"They got trained quite well during my absence," William walked outside with great satisfaction after he passed through the noise created by his sudden appearance. He treated everyone quite well, and politely refused their offers to come and accompany him.

What was a pleasant surprise for him was the fact that most if not all of them weren't included in the top master list he got in his mind. He knew the top masters were either in the Black Tails team, or in the Golden Tails two teams. Aside from these teams, he expected the overall level and ability of his guild masters to be average, or even below average.

But that wasn't true. It seemed even the normal masters in his guild were strong enough to be on the high level compared with other masters in the world.

"The city grows once more," William was now free to inspect Lara's city this time. He walked down its streets, walking through its three huge zones, looking at the swarm of masters walking inside.

However things didn't look that great when he walked further inside. He noticed many buildings losing parts of their bodies, and few totally collapsed. He recalled the big battle he had against the monster in the underground city, and he could tell how severe that battle was.

Even after over a month, the city still didn't fully recover. And seeing all these scars, he could imagine how bad it must have looked when that battle ended.

But these signs of damage didn't seem to bother the masters living here. In fact, he felt like he was the only one noticing these scars, stopping from time to time to inspect a fallen building or partially damaged place.

"You are back," as he walked down the streets, he finally found himself standing in front of Lara's tower, the place that witnessed a big battle over the city. It was the place that Lara decided to turn into a memorable spot and took it as her palace.

The moment he went there, he found a grand wall surrounding the place, with a large gate semi-opened, and an old man stood in front of it.

"You are still alive, old man," William grinned when he saw the face of the old friend, Sloth.

"What a rude kid you are… Do you think I'm too old to die for a month?!" Sloth's eyebrows twitched while William couldn't help but laugh.

"What brought you here? I thought you went back to the king," William sized Sloth up and down, "it doesn't seem you just arrived here, what's wrong?"

"It's a secret," Sloth decided to pay back the rudeness of William and didn't say what he was here for. But instead of watching William beg or use any tactic to make him spill the beans out, the latter simply smiled in confidence as he replied:

"You don't need to tell me then, Anjie will."

"You little jerk…" Sloth wanted to smack Willian on the head, but he controlled himself, "why are you always good at making others mad at you? Why not simply act your age and make us like you?"

"I can't lie to myself, right?" William evilly grinned, "so, will you tell me or…"

"No need to hide then," Sloth shrugged, "the king wants to meet with the princess, and so I'm here to accompany her back."

"For what?" William looked in a suspicious way towards Sloth, but the latter seemed to not intend to spill any beans this time.

"Even if you asked her, she won't tell you anything…"

"Wanna bet?"

"Screw off!" Sloth knew he'd lose such a bet against William despite his desire for Anjie to keep this information secret from William. But honestly he knew this wasn't going to happen.

Any blind man would be able to tell how strong and deep the bond between these two was running. Sloth didn't object to this, after all he witnessed how special and different William was, how great of potential his future held.

"Don't bother then, I'll find out myself," William winked in a teasing manner, and for the second time Sloth wanted to smack him on the head, and hardly controlled himself.
