Chapter 9 Your Manual Is Broken!
"What I meant wasn't to alter the nature of the two spirits. Not only is it impossible, but it will also harm you instead. We don't need to care about their relationship, after all they are merging together."
She realised what he wanted to say. "Then how can we make them more compatible?" yet this answer of his didn't explain what he said earlier.
"It's simple, your spirit power was only directed towards one spirit of the two: your dragon spirit. For now, it might be considered as your dominant spirit."
"That's right, my family's spirit is tyrannical, hahaha!" again she showed that side of her personality.
"It won't work this way," he resisted the urge to hit her on the back of her head, as what his master used to behave when he said or did something stupid, "we need to make the two spirits equal in spirit power so the first phase of the merge will succeed and you'll breakthrough."
"I got it!" this time her eyes flashed with realisation, "but how can I do that? No matter how I trained, I couldn't break through."
"Not with me around," William knew if he had to thoroughly explain things to her then an entire day and night wouldn't be enough. And she wouldn't get what he wanted to do in the end. "Let me see your training manuscript."
"Here."
Asking someone from another family or clan about their training manuals was a taboo in the spirit world. Training manuals were considered as secrets, grave secrets that shouldn't be exposed to anyone who was an outsider.
But at this moment, Berry had no speck of doubt towards William. she was even willing to give him her body and heart. What was the value of a small piece of paper and a training manuscript compared with that?
On the other hand, William was astonished by her smooth approval and compliance. He imagined she would resist, throw tons of questions over his head or even directly refuse. He even prepared a long list of excuses to convince her to do so.
"Aren't you afraid I might steal it?" he expressed his own astonishment by asking so.
"What's there to be afraid of?" Yet she simply shrugged and didn't even budge her extended hand towards him, "you are genuinely trying to help me here. I'll do whatever you ask me for, not only for now but from this moment onwards."
"Tsk," William knew she was stubborn to be reasoned with. She was still clutched with that reward thing in her mind and now he realised she might have made a decision about how to reward him.
He wasn't someone to refuse anything good, but not in return for paying his old debts with her. She was the first to show kindness to him, but she didn't know about that part of his past life.
"Alright," so he accepted the paper and started to read its content. In the span of a minute, he finally read through everything that the training manual contained.
And he couldn't help but inwardly sigh. "The training manuscripts of this world are really out of date. Not to mention this one is messing up many key points to make the spirit master training in it breakthrough the barrier."
The script in his hand should have come from the direct house of Berry's mighty clan. If even such a strong and big clan had a broken manuscript as their top training manual, then it would express how bad the situation in this world was.
William didn't train before in this world. He embarked on the path of cultivation after leaving this world. So, his knowledge about the training manuals here was close to zero.
The manual he received from Berry was just doing many things wrongly, just to enable the spirit master to wield great power without the ability to better control it. All for the reason to breakthrough the barrier at the end, which would eventually turn into a futile endeavour.
To breakthrough to the ranks in legends, breakthrough the barrier around this world and enter the vast world outside, one needed not only to train diligently but to train correctly.
Without a full manuscript that had an intact path to ranks beyond the legendary rank, the supposedly higher rank in this world, no one would ever have the chance to breakthrough at all!
"I get it then," he handed the paper back. And this time it was Berry's turn to be shocked.
"You read it? Did you find it so hard to understand? Want my help?"
She misunderstood him. In her eyes, he was a porter who didn't train much in his life before. So, she thought he didn't get anything from her manual.
"No, it's simple," he honestly said, "but it's broken and not suitable for you."
"..."
This time she looked at him with wide eyes and gaped open mouth. Who dared to call her treasured training manual that was long passed from the first patriarch of her clan as broken and not suitable for her?
She didn't know what to say to him. At this moment she felt glad her father wasn't witnessing this, or else the response her father would give might be much different!
"Do you have a brush and paper?" He didn't have such resources in his bag. During the day he might have, but not now.
"Here," helplessly she put aside her manual inside her bracelet before taking out a long red brush and stack of yellow paper. "Enough?" she asked before adding, "what do you want these for?"
"It happens that I know of a far suited manual to train your two spirits in," he accepted the two before going to the side and taking a big rock as his table.
She heard what he said and watched him seriously drawing and writing with fast speed.
What did he say just now? In the spirit world, not anyone had the knowledge to say he knew of a manual better than what her family held as a treasure.
Broken manual? Far suited manual for her twin spirit? She repeated what he just said to herself in great amazement. At this moment she felt like she never truly knew William at all.
If not for her firm knowledge about his current status and power, she would take him for another person. A porter like him had the knowledge to not only read top refined manual like the one she had, but also dared to criticise such top manual and had in the memory two other manuals he said to be mightier?
That was truly unheard of before!
In her eyes, he was either bluffing or he was truly a genius!
Yet when she recalled what William did and said since she met him almost an hour ago, she felt a strange belief in his words. And a weird expectation!
