Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master
29 The Nightfall Lightning Fox
William made his arrows to deal perfectly well with silver grade monsters. Even if this was a mix between two species of monsters, and also a hybrid, William doubted it would emerge unscathed from his arrows.
But the next moment, William had to jump again to evade another light attack combined with a mighty roar from the monster.
"Still not enough to take you down then," William felt pain in the roaring of the monster, yet he didn't feel any sign of weakness. It was apparent that his arrow didn't inflict the expected damage for reasons he could guess.
Without waiting for the cloud of fire, smoke, and dust to be cleared, he instantly took out three arrows and released them in three different directions.
"Roar!"
The monster attacked again. This time he didn't ignore any of William's arrows. It learnt its lesson from a painful past experience and made sure to attack the three arrows at the same time. And with each attack, it kept roaring in loud and annoying way that got on William's nerves.
"Shut the hell up! You are going to wake the entire forest, goddammit!"
The roars were so loud, even louder than the explosions of his arrows. There was a lightning effect in these roars, but that didn't affect William greatly.
lightning would add a numbing and even paralysing effect to any attack even if it was a sound based one. And as the monster used a sound based attack like this, it wanted to meddle with his mind and will. Yet this didn't put William under much pressure.
After all, William's own will wasn't of an eight years old kid. Trying to affect his mind and movement using such useless weak lightning wasn't enough.
If the monster used a direct hit combined with lightning like that light bolt attacks, then William would be in danger by then.
*Woosh!* *Woosh!* Woosh*
Like last time, William released three arrows before he threw something afterwards. The monster attacked the arrows like before, but this time there was another thing hidden behind them.
"Roar!"
It was a much painful roar this time, and it told William that that monster got severely wounded by his knife. What William threw after his arrows was one of his flying knives. Even if the monster could smash his arrows, he couldn't affect the totally under his control knife.
And William was sure his knives were much stronger than the arrows.
"Roar!" but this was only the beginning of hell for this monster. William didn't only send four more knives to attack it, he also controlled the knives once they got into that monster's body and made them move deeper in its flesh.
The more they moved, the weaker the roars of the monster became.
"Die in peace and silence," as the monster became much weaker, William didn't depend on such a slow way to kill it. He wasn't a sadist to begin with. So he sent three arrows in succession, killing that monster in the middle of three mighty explosions.
The monster issued its last roar before it fell with its big body. During this flashing battle that didn't last more than half a minute, William couldn't clearly see its body.
But once the monster died, he made sure of his earlier guesses. Once he started to examine the fox's body, he was sure this wasn't a simple nightfall lightning fox.
There was a strange long bone stretching all the way from its neck to its thick furred long tail. That bone was bright silver in colour, meaning it was one of the best places in its body brimming with spirit power.
One had to know that silver grade monsters could give more materials than white or bronze grade ones. William placed his hand on that bone and felt its smooth and slightly soft contour.
"So, you are a hybrid with an interesting light element," he muttered in low tone as this was the first time ever for him to see such a monster. "I guess it's my lucky day! I didn't only get one of the elements like I hoped for, but three at once. Thanks buddy, I appreciate your help."
It got dark, lightning and a light element. It was just awesome and perfect for William.
Unlike before, he didn't hurry to dissect this monster at the spot to claim his loot. Instead, he started to grab its huge body to a safer place; a slight cave covered by thick bushes he found a mile away.
William was sure this battle must have attracted the attention of many monsters around. Even if he tried his best to finish it fast, just the sounds of explosions from his arrows and the noisy roars of that monster were enough to attract many eyes here.
Not to mention the smell of blood would attract more in the next few hours. But he got a solution already for the problem of blood smell.
As William knew evading battles here was nearly impossible, he made preparations to solve the most important problem of any battle, the smell of blood.
As he knew he had to fight eventually, he kept looking for perfect hide spots everywhere he went to. And that just came handy at this moment or else he'd have to look for a suitable place to hide and absorb the monster's spirit, wasting precious time in the process and putting himself into danger.
The body of this monster was really heavy. It spanned for five metres in length and almost one and half metre in width. The variation it got by that light element bone made it a little heavier than William initially thought.
But that didn't stop William from moving the carcass. If William waited for few more minutes there, he was sure he'd end up fighting more monsters.
William moved towards that cave which he met just before meeting the fox monster. It was the safest place he could think of around this region, the only safe place he met close to the battlefield.
Once moved there, he started first to scatter the powder he got from crushing roots of certain plants he picked along the way.
"This will help mask that heavy blood smell," he shook his hand off the powder after finishing covering the entire cave area and the closest part of the path he took to come here.
Then he went inside and placed the heavy body of that fox in the end of this cave.
The process of absorbing monster spirit wasn't short or simple. Besides, any interruption in the middle of it would end with a failure and a big backlash.
So, William took his time to close the opening of that cave with more plants and roots. He even used some dirt. He didn't want anything to interrupt him during the process.
This cave was underneath the roots of a big, towering tree. The tree itself needed a group of ten people together to surround it.
But it was situated on the edge of a slope, and the cave lay just in that spot with a narrow hole appearing from outside.
The small opening led into a slightly spacious cave. It wasn't that wide but compared to his cabinet, it certainly was big enough.
"Time to get myself a good spirit," he said while eyeing the monster he killed with eyes filled with greed and much anticipation.
He sat beside the dead body of the monster and didn't even light a single candle. It was still dark outside, and light could be noticed easily by monsters.
He closed the opening, but he doubted what he did was enough to block the light of the candle. If monsters from outside noticed the light here, then he'd get interrupted while absorbing the spirit of that fox monster.
Lying in such darkness, he felt the body of that monster before reopening the old wound on his left hand. He felt weird, as he started to feel his left hand turning into his blood donor in this life.
*Doom* *Doom!* *Doom!*
Like a heart beating, once his bloody hand touched the monster, the entire body of that dead fox started to emit a faint myriad of different lights. William wasn't startled by this. After all this was an expected result.
The way to absorb any monster spirit depended entirely on using spirit master's blood in the process. And William already got the unbelievable devouring ability. So, he expected a much fiercer reaction and even few changes to the process he was familiar with.
He didn't remove his hand or even stop the bleeding. Instead, he pressured with his hand further while making sure there was no gap between the two.
The more beating it came, the more changes happened to his blood and to the monster's body. The blood started to move, coalescing together and forming a unified blanket of white material.
It was a manifestation of his current spirit. It wasn't pure white, but white that was mixed with many impurities, turning it slightly darker and less appealing to the eye.
As for the monster's body, it started to turn translucent under his bloody touch. All the places covered showed its internal organs, bones, until a thin wisp of fog appeared deep in the centre of that body.
This was the monster's spirit; the one William aimed to absorb and merge with at the moment.
