Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

Chapter 835 Mind Blowing Ancient Myths

?

"So, if you wake up, you'll become human?!!!" This was quite shocking for William. And what she said later on made this shock skyrocket and reach another level.

"You don't know of the old myth? All humans originated from monsters who turned into this form after walking down this path…" she started to speak more about this ancient myth, and he couldn't help but feel more shocked the more he heard her words.

The scariest part of all this was the fact that it made perfect sense. According to this myth, monsters were created by higher beings. And from there, they turned into humans. Humans just needed two to start their fast productivity, and the myth spoke about two intelligent monsters who were in a crazy love story, refusing to just die without staying together for a bit longer.

So the two created this route, ending up condensing everything they had, turning their insane spirit power into human body flesh.

Two started everything, and from there more humans appeared as their descendants. "But… We are always in a constant fight with those despicable humans…" he learnt how to describe humans, including himself, in words that appealed to her and let her lower her guard even further while speaking with him.

"That's because of the other path," she sighed, "one of our ancient ancestors wanted to take the crazy step. Yet he knew he alone won't be able to do it. So he devised a new path, one that started all this feud."

"Speaking as if we used to live in harmony with humans!!!"

"That was indeed true, perhaps thousands of millions of years ago," she paused, "I know this is quite hard to believe, but humans were once our most trusted friends and allies. Yet all this changed thanks to this ancient monster."

"What did he do exactly?" William grew more curious to hear more about this story. And she didn't disappoint him and said everything in great detail.

That monster found another way to take this step. According to another myth, it found chains holding up the entire world together, and it aimed at sucking dry the spirit power of these chains.

That monster was indeed greedy and selfish and didn't think even about the use of these chains or anything. It simply wanted to take such a step, even at the cost of all the living creatures in the world to perish!

These chains were really rich in spirit power, with quite a different quality of spirit power than what was present in the ancient world. According to the myth, this spirit power was something that was like a midstage between the spirit power in the ancient world and the higher realm.

But there were grave consequences for what it did.

"... These chains were the thing that held the ancient world together. Weakening it ended up in a great catastrophe, one that was about to end all the lives of everything. So everyone, both humans and monsters, agreed on joining forces together to stop it."

"This doesn't sound like a story that started all this hatred to me," William expressed his thoughts, and she simply sighed in response, lost in thoughts for long minutes before adding:

"To be honest, I believe humans have all the right to hate us like this. They are despicable, but still, they have a right in such deep enmity and hatred."

"What happened?" William was sure something bad happened, something bad that ancient monsters of that time did. Or else by the current course of the tale, nothing would have happened to bring forth such enmity.

"That monster tricked the monster leaders, telling them that this wasn't just for himself, but also for them and other monsters. So, you can expect the rest…"I think you should take a look at

"Don't tell me… We betrayed humans?!" William knew this was the only possible scenario for this twist.

"That was indeed what happened, and that started a huge war back then between the two sides."

"Hmm… What happened then? What happened to this monster? What happened to everyone? Did they perish?"

"No, no, if they did, we wouldn't have been alive today. Humans are blessed with the gift of rapid progress in their training. That's indeed the case thanks to being the descendants of two formidable monsters in the first place."

"And?" William didn't want to argue with her about this insane possibility, even if he felt it was true, he didn't want to admit it.

"The humans succeeded to kill that monster, after a long and tiring war with monsters. They didn't do it fast enough, and so a huge disaster happened, one that changed the entire world into something else."

"Which is?"

"The myth I accidentally found in one of the ancient relic sites isn't complete," she sighed, telling him indirectly that she didn't know what happened to the world back then. But William knew the answer for that.

The world faced The Fall, the event that turned the single and endless world into how it was today, a gathering of countless tiny worlds and one grand outer world.

William linked everything she told him about this myth with what the scrolls he read before coming here said. And without intending it, he felt like everything was connected, falling in place like pieces of a puzzle, forming a concrete picture of the ugly truth.

"The myth records only stopped at what that monster promised everyone back then," she suddenly said, jolting William awake from his momentarily dazed and deep thoughts.

"What did he say?"

"He will come back," she paused, "he promised he'd send his spirit into reincarnation, the legendary place that no one heard about before. Then he'll take whatever time he needs to come back and complete his task."

"Oh, he is quite determined," William felt this monster was a bitter loser, "any mention of what type of monster he was?"

He casually asked, just to know everything about the far distant past.

"The myth didn't just mention his nature, but also described him in great detail."
