Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

[But… We didn't attack that layer yet] Ibra said, [Doesn't that mean we are safe?]

"I hardly believe that," William sighed, "that thing must have stored tons of damage the moment it built up that layer. For your own good, we shouldn't send anyone deep into the region."

[Why does it feel like you plan to stay behind?] Zin read what William's friends also got from his words. And as they didn't find it weird thanks to the long time they spent together with him, Zin and other leaders found it a bit weird.

"We came here to destroy this place, right?"

[But… Alone? No, that's impossible!] Nonoa said, [We have to also take part in this]

"You do know the risks, and you are all grown up masters, so…" William's words meant one simple thing, if they wanted to come, then he'd not refuse such help.

Of course, what they all thought about was true. Taking down the entire dark academy was a headache, not to mention William was going to fight solo against tens of thousands of dark masters.

Perhaps such a number wouldn't pose a great threat to William, especially when all of the high-end power on the dark masters' side got removed before by the leaders of the grand master army. Yet the main threat still was at the academy itself.

William knew if that bastard did all this, then the academy held the deadliest and scariest trap of all. At least it would work as the final trigger that would detonate the entire place and let that golden eggshell crack and fall.

The more William thought about this the more he recalled the black fox warning. "It said there is one way out of this… So where is the way?" William kept thinking about this until he finally found what he was looking for.

It took him roughly a few hours to arrive at this idea. And then he started to arrange things with Zin.

[You do know you are quite crazy for such a young youth you are] when Zin heard about what William said, he couldn't help but exclaim in admiration and respect.

"I hope it's not a bad thing," William took it as a compliment, "can you do it old man?"

[Tsk! You are really annoying! Sure, why not? Let me try and see if we can handle a few of these…]

William then got the good news a few hours later. The idea of his succeeded. Despite being innovative, he knew it was going to work.

And as Zin was preparing at his side, William was now having a meeting with his team.

The leaders team already started to evacuate. Any master below high-grade stage ones were asked to leave. Out of the masters inside the region, most were going to leave. And that also meant William's team had to leave as well.

Of course, his vices didn't take things lightly as William doubted. They kept asking to fight, asking to join him and others in this last stretch in their adventure.

"You aren't a pinnacle master, and you are still planning to go!" Sara was standing side by side with Lara, Berry, Ibra, and others on this argument.

"Come on! You do know I can keep myself alive," William knew it was going to be a bit of a headache to convince them, but he had to, "I can't get distressed to save you when the entire world collapses! Just stay outside and let me handle this academy and the traps around."

But his efforts went in vain, and all was thanks to Lara!

"I'm not part of your guild, and I have my own guards here," she shrugged, taking this as lightly as she shouldn't, "if you want you can also join my side. Leave him to work alone, and let's work as a team."

Her sudden invitation made everyone excited. Just before William was this close from driving them away, Lara stepped in and ruined everything for him.

"Don't give me this look, we are masters, and you can't go around protecting all of them all the time," she rolled her eyes when he gave her a deep and stern look, "just deal with the things you have, and let us fight to our fullest. At least we'll make this fight end faster, right?"

"Sigh!" William knew he had no way to convince everyone now. What Lara said was also true. They weren't kids anymore, weren't the same weak masters William once recruited them five years ago.

They grew stronger, and they all learnt formidable techniques from him. "Fine, but let's do it this way then," as they were going to tag along, William decided to use them to the fullest.

In fact, what he wanted them to do wasn't that hard. They were going to join the side of masters coming from the other team or from the outside under Zin leadership.

Their task was simple, they had to help in killing the dark masters, and also to secure a precious cargo. When they learnt about the nature of this cargo, and how it was going to change everything in the end, everyone couldn't help but give William a blaming look.

"You got a way to deal with this, and you still want to drive us away? Tsk! What a selfish leader you are!"

Ibra expressed what everyone else was thinking about.

"I don't guarantee that this will suffice everyone, however…" William paused, "if we are lucky, then Zin will prepare enough."

"I'm sure he will," Lara chuckled, "I'm going to contact him and let him know about the risks on stakes here."

"..." William didn't say anything and kept his silence. Lara did as she said, and Zin indeed promised her to prepare enough cargo for all of them.
