Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

His enemy got such gruesome wounds and wasn't even able to raise his head or lift a weapon. So, it was expected for William's sword to hit his mark, cleave that enemy's body in half horizontally, starting the hit from the deep wound on his chest.

"I hate those talkative losers! You lose and that's the end of it! Why make a scene out of such a trivial matter?" William tilted his lips upwards, showing a broad smile and happy expression over his face despite his words.

This… This was his first kill of a dark gold spirit master ever since coming back in time. And when he just thought back, he realised that he didn't stay here in this world for a couple of months, and he managed to reach such a scary stage in such a short time.

It was indeed a remarkable feat. But William didn't let it get into his head. He knew a great part of his insane accomplishment came from his gears and elixirs. He didn't get to such a stage purely depending on his spirit power and technique.

"At least I touched the scary stage at such an early time… And it's something amazing regardless…" William thought back towards the elder he once met at the library, the one who kept speaking with him about how useless gears and potions were.

If he listened to that master's words before, then he'd have not reached such a stage at this point. That was the difference between him and other spirit masters, the value of experience that he brought with him from his past life.

"Time to end it here," William jumped up the hole after clearing and collecting all the loot from this dude. He was a dark gold grade spirit master, and William expected nothing less than a grand harvest from his rings.

He didn't get just one ring, but five. Not to mention the sword, the gears he got. So, William was in a very great mood right now.

"Oh, this explosion did help me a lot," William reached the surface to get welcomed with a scary scene waiting for him. The devastation that happened was less to be described as great. Almost half of the dark spirit masters here got killed, while the other half got severely wounded.

William didn't show any mercy towards them. He still got lots of power inside, with the help of what remained from his elixir.

He didn't hold back anymore and started to flash and hit all the enemies around, killing the rest of them.

He didn't take more than ten minutes to do so. Then he cleared the place, collected tons of rings and gears, before starting to move towards the next target.

"They didn't send anyone, despite those gold and higher-grade enemies having the spirit sense on their side… That means they saw what I did, and I shall expect little change in their tactics…"

William knew this lack of finding new enemies flooding here had a good reason behind it. If it was him, he'd change the overall tactic and arrangement of the enemy forces. And that made him more prepared for what yet to come.

"But this battle told me that I was doing it wrong," William thought back towards that clash he got with the scary dark gold master, "I should aim to fight against these strong folks early on… If so, then…"

William knew the enemy changed their tactics to deal with him, and so he decided to do the same. He saw it was pointless to waste lots of time killing the flies while there was a better way to do it.

Just recalling the scary aftermath of that clash made him crave to start with such a clash from the start. And to do so, he had to change a little thing first.

William didn't hurry to do what he intended. He first went towards the next spot where he was supposed to meet up with new enemies.

"It's as I expected, fantastic!" but against what he had to find, he found nothing there. And that just came to confirm his earlier guesses, "the leaders of this grand army here are really smart."

He didn't feel any worry or disappointment, simply went towards the next places he got in his mind. He found no one there at the next five places, and until he went to the sixth place, he didn't even meet a single monster or dark spirit master at all.

"Finally found you!" William's eyes shone brightly when he spotted the grand gathering of enemies waiting for him.

"You won't leave here alive!" Just before he'd come closer, seven shadows appeared, flickering in the darkness spreading all over the forest, heading towards him.

"Three snakes, two worms, one scorpion, and one little damn wolf… What a nice collection of rare spirits this is…" William didn't get startled at all by seeing the seven of them.

He knew they were dark gold masters, and they came here for him. If he was in the enemy's shoes, he'd simply shuffle and group the scattered forces around. If a single dark gold master wasn't enough to take him down, then using five or more would be enough.

That was why William didn't intend to attack the fodders and weak flies scattered all over the place from the start. If he did that, he'd give his enemies enough time to surround and attack him.

He had one simple task, to take down the leaders of this grand army of dark spirit masters. As for the mere flies and fodders, he'd find lots of time later to clear them.

Not to mention the loot in any of these leaders' rings was enough to rival the loot from tons of rings coming from mere fodders.
