Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

Chapter 37 [Bonus ] The Toros Clan

?"Toros? You don't mean the clan with the earth element, the mighty armoured elephant spirit masters, do you?"

William was instantly taken aback when he heard the name of that family. The Toros family wasn't only a once strong and extremely famous clan, but he had another tie with them.

"They are… Do you know them?" Lina's eyes sparkled as she was surprised by William's on the spot right comment. For a second there she recalled what William said when he met the Rockos' kids.

With a glance he recognized them, as he also recognized the Toros family.

"Oh god… Don't tell me the Toros family got destroyed!" William didn't answer her as he asked about another thing.

"The Rockos attacked our people alone," Lina said, "but they didn't touch the Toros family yet. The academy won't allow them to do that."

"For now," but William said another weird comment that left her more puzzled. "Tell me, are they still living in the remote red hills? At the northern borders of the academy?"

"Damn! Are you a spirit master of the Aspire academy or the Golden Sky academy?!!" Lina was now pretty much shocked and confused.

The Toros family was once strong and famous, renowned for their strong defensive capabilities. Yet that was over a century ago. Something old happened back at that time and the Toros clan diminished to such a weak state, living in the shadow and protection of the academy.

But what William said was right again and on the correct note. The Toros family did indeed live in that spot. He wasn't only able to recognize them, he also knew where they lived. For a second there, Lina even doubted he was part of the Golden Sky academy.

"I just love knowing about the world's issues," William shrugged and didn't explain. After all, his own ties with the Toros family weren't easy to explain.

If he had to describe it, then he owed a lifetime debt to one of them. If not for that spirit master's help, he wouldn't have escaped the previous destruction of this world alive or live to experience the outside world.

"So, are you a porter or a spirit master?" Lina didn't know why but after finding out that William knew her old masters, she couldn't help but speak more friendly with him.

"It's… Complicated," William mysteriously said before pointing to her mask, "are you planning to keep that thing on you all the time?"

"I'm sorry, young master," under his sudden remark, she returned to her conservative attitude, "I swore to not show my face ever again as a redemption towards my family losses."

"Not even a single peek? Don't tell me you are this ugly," William teased her and all he could see was her eyes rolling.

"Not a chance, young master."

"Calling me a young master and not meaning it, that's cold," William laughed before he waved his hand, "never mind! Tell me, have you trained your spirit before?"

"Spirit? Is it food?" and all of sudden, the weak voice of Tina echoed in both their ears, greatly startling them.

As they travelled, William took out another potion, the breath of life's precious potion, and sipped a few drops into the cracked lips of Tina from time to time.

She seemed to get better as she slowly opened her eyes and weakly asked.

"Tina? Are you awake? Thank God!" Lina forgot about everything else and hugged her little sister. William stood on the side without saying anything while Lina examined her sister.

"Let's go and have a place to rest at," this time William chose a site on the side of a running river nearby.

They gained enough rest this time. They already walked away from the battle region for a long enough distance. And by Tina's regain of consciousness, William decided to spend a few hours there to let the two girls regain their strength, eat and drink.

William then travelled with the two girls for almost four more days. During these, he kept killing bronze grade monsters and a couple silver grades without rest. The main problem he faced was that many of such monsters moved in packs.

He didn't dare to attack them. He still hadn't started using any of his training manuals as there was time for such a thing. So, he was just limited with the arrows, the flying knives, the footwork, the little tricks he knew using ores and terrain in a fight, plus the help of Lina.

Lina was really helpful, yet she only depended upon her physical strength. She lacked any technique to use, any spirit power to augment her strength. So, William couldn't risk facing a large group of monsters even with her on his side.

That made him lose much time in looking for suitable targets to attack. After four days of fighting, he finally exceeded the one hundred spirit power target by fifty points.

"Time to go back," he finally decided to head back to the academy. During this time, his main concern wasn't focused on killing monsters and increasing his spirit power alone, but to deal with another threat.

He feared to meet any spirit master from the Golden Sky academy. So, he decided to move in wide circles, paths away from the direction of his academy. And his luck was good that he didn't even meet a single one of them so far.

"Young master, do you have a private residence back in the academy?"

Despite the fact that he asked the little Tina many times already to not call him that, she kept using that title when addressing him.

"Well, for now there is nothing I have back there," William couldn't lie in front of the wide and innocent black eyes of Tina, "but soon I'll have a large place of my own."

William didn't say he already had a small cabinet. After all, he was going to cause a stir back in the academy by his sudden and out of this world increase in strength.

He officially entered the ranks of the bronze spirit masters by his spirit power alone. As for his spirit grade, it was already at silver grade or even equal to the spirit level of common gold spirit masters.

Yet the academy didn't know about spirit grading, so he didn't put any hope on that. As he led the two girls back, killing any monster on their path, even the white grade ones, he kept dreaming about the shock he would give to the academy.

Yet he didn't know that he already caused a stir back in the academy while he was busy in the forest! He also didn't know that his name and face became so widely known inside the academy, even among the academy masters!
