Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master



[You? You do know there are lots of pinnacle masters after me, right?]

"Just trust me on this," William knew his weapon wouldn't be scary enough to kill such formidable masters. But it'd be at least strong enough to fend them off and stall for time.

Time was her greatest enemy right now. If she managed to buy herself enough time, then the forces scattered all over the city would gather and protect her. However, she had to survive at least for a day or so.

As the enemies went to such an extent, William was sure they took into consideration the scattered forces of Lara. He didn't even mention summoning any of them.

William wasn't that worried about her. He knew someone born and raised in this city wouldn't struggle to keep himself alive.

"I hope she knows what to do," he knew he did enough, and now it was all up to her. If she wasn't capable, or half bad, she'd end up dead. And as he didn't know what type of a master she truly was, he started to think of the worst.

"If she dies, then that jerk will take control over the entire family, and the city…" William stood in front of his half-finished weapon and kept thinking about all this.

He depended on his future plans over the contribution of Lara and her support. If she was killed, or she got out of the picture by greatly weakening her forces, then everything would be lost.

He wasn't afraid of the safety of the portal area like Lara did. After all, the one behind all this was Richard, and he'd be a total moron if he destroyed a single portal in the middle of all this.

And that meant Richard if killed Lara, he'd gain not only the family, but its golden goose as well. And that made him quite dangerous in William's eyes.

"Sigh! Why is trying to get an interworld portal always this complicated? Is it fate tricks perhaps or what?" William shook his head, couldn't help but look at the ground while imagining the portal lying deep down the ground.

If not for this portal and its immense value later on, he'd prefer to take everyone and leave this wretched place.

"I have to think of a way to pressure him…" William knew that filling the entire city with formations wasn't going to work. After all, he lacked even an ownership of a single door leading to here. And even his ally, Lara, didn't have any access to any door right now.

Thinking about that made William feel like this hit from Richard was closest ever to a checkmate. William got nothing in his power to stop Richard's actions if the latter killed Lara in the end.

"And I can't go out to protect her personally, as if I can do it for long enough…" William sighed again, feeling the entire situation was chaotic enough to give him headache, "I'll leave things to fate then," after a while, William decided to drop his thoughts about this matter as it was useless.

He turned his attention towards his weapon and started to prepare the last needed touches. To finalise this weapon, he had to forge something like a shield, something strong enough to sustain the pressure and damage in brutal fights.

And to do that, William already had mixed different ores and cleansed them partially. As he got enough time without anything else to do, and with all these disturbing thoughts, he decided to keep himself busy and start finishing the cleansing process.

He held the hammer he had since he was in the Scorching Lands city, a dark gold grade one, and started to hit that melted mix with all his might.

He wasn't the same weak master he was before when he tried forging in the academy. He wasn't just higher in spirit power grade, but also, he was using his black fox form as well.

That made each hit made by his hammer count. William kept cleansing this mix, actually not feeling that great while doing this. He was cleansing a mix of melted ores that came from the higher realm. Even if he diluted their power using other ores, he wasn't that satisfied with the level of cleansing he was doing.

That appeared clearly when two hours passed and yet with each strike with the hammer, a shower of flaring fires appeared thanks to burn the impurities.

That was something out of control as well. And all he could do was to hope his cleansing for all these hours would leave behind a half good alloy, not something bad and would fail when getting tested.

"It's time to wrap it up," William didn't just prepare this melted mix, he also prepared herbs' essence and few materials that he needed to finalise this process.

eαglesnᴏνel Like what he did before, he kept covering up the entire weapon's body with the alloy in layers, while adding herbs' essence and wax material in the middle. From time to time, he'd place certain hardened black rods that weren't longer than half a metre and looked like spears or big thorns.

He did that by following what his friend once did. These rods were quite special, actually one of the most important pieces in making this weapon. They got his blood and spirit power signature in them, even using his normal spirit power and his power while being in fox mode.

In addition to these rods, he also poured some sort of jelly-like substance that he made with extra care.

This substance was the rarest of all the things he made so far. And he carefully placed it around each rod, acting as if he was using glue or something. But this substance wasn't used to fix these rods in place, it was used for other big and far more important roles.

As he kept doing this, he had to wait for each layer to harden. That took him three hours at least to get everything done.
