Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

Chapter 673 The Spirit Conflict Phenomenon

?

"This…" William knew this was destined to happen. Birds used to stick to any towering tree, but that didn't mean the tree had to welcome any bird on its branches.

"Don't worry, I left Stark to handle them," she waved her hand casually, "He and Zin are dealing with these forces. If they came when we mostly needed them, they'd have easily joined us. But coming after the danger is gone? And expecting us to just welcome them without paying a hefty price in return? They are just idiots!"

William could guess a lot from her words. As she said it, Stark and Zin were going to give them a beating and crush all of their hopes it seemed.

"Now let's talk about us," she said in a way that gave him a scare, "hahahaha! Just look at your face! I won't bite you or anything, hahahaha!"

"You still want to come with us?" William ignored her remark and added, "you know you can trust me now. And I bet no one in the family will object to lending me a few portal cores."

"It's not about the family," she paused before adding in an honest tone, "it was never related to them."

"Fine," William knew she was interested in him more than anything else, "how about this… Make sure to bring all the trusted masters from your family."

"Do you expect a big battle or what?"

"I expect a war," William paused, before seriously adding as a warning, "I know the news of what happened back there reached your ears. This isn't just a normal raid against a dark force base. Our enemy invited us to go there, and that means a lot."

"He is quite daring," she chuckled, seemingly taking all of this in a light way, "I don't know why you attract such scary folks over you. Are you cursed or something?"

"It's the curse of greatness, what can I say about it?" William shrugged, and she couldn't help but blink twice in front of his shameless attitude before laughing.

"Ok Mr. Big Shot, let me arrange my side and will join you in ten hours."

"Got it," William was about to leave when she abruptly stood up, totally startling him, "is there anything wrong?" he suspected something grand had reached her ears, never expecting what she'd say next.

"I always watch that girl called Berry hug you at any occasion… Can't I treat you the same?"

He blinked and couldn't get over his surprise until she was already surrounding him with her arms, "stay safe and always crush your enemies."

"That's what I plan to do," he broke free from her in a gentle way, not knowing what he should do but leave, "it's going to be a headache soon enough," he shook his head while leaving the tower, imagining what would happen between the girls on his side when seeing her hug him like Berry.

"Should I turn it into a custom to satisfy all or what?" he envisioned himself hugging every girl by his side before walking to do something. And soon enough he decided to drop such a crazy idea.

As he notified her and dealt with the portal problem, he started to walk towards the marketplace.

The market was planned to get moved outside the walls lining the inner city. Like this, it totally changed. It became much bigger, with many shops than before. Simple stalls were prohibited, and only merchants with enough funds were able to purchase a spot there.

This wasn't an act of arrogance or something, but thanks to the crazy list they got for applications. Tons of merchants lined up to get a spot in the market, and that forced their hands to do it this way.

But it got its perks as well. As he walked in the middle of the new market, he saw lots of items getting sold from different places in the continent.

To make up for the immense wealth they paid, the merchants and merchant groups had to take out lots of their treasures and precious items and products to sell here. That greatly raised the overall value of the market, making it look really worthy to shop here.

William already asked Lara to make tons of the modified toxin and store them for any future needs. The higher council back then agreed to turn this toxin into a strategic weapon, alongside all the tactics and grenades used in that war.

William didn't object to this. But in case of the grenades, they needed special artisans to make them. He was shocked to see these forces bring forth lots of those artisans, even Zin brought out an entire family of them.

Seeing this made William jealous of them. They had deep pockets and lots of resources. Not to mention a great net of relations and ties with different forces, families, and academies all over the continent.

As they agreed to turn all of these war weapons into the backing of the city, William could now exchange his contribution points for these grenades.

He didn't mind that. After all, he gained tons of contribution points after the assessment done by the city's new upper echelon. As for these points, it was a new system that he introduced, to make the bond between the newly joined forces tighter with the city.

William already sent a request to exchange lots of contribution points for these grenades after the war ended. He exhausted tons of his grenades back then. And he had to wait for a longer time to make new ones.

As he walked through the market, he kept recalling the information he had about Mutants. Even if he could consider himself as an encyclopaedia of the world of spirit masters, he didn't know a lot about these Mutants.

But he got to know about a single and common weakness they all got. As Mutants got formed by forcing their monstrous spirits over the human spirit, they got some rare phenomenon called the Spirit Conflict.
