Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

"The silver grade scales over thousands of points, and that means I had lots of low-grade silver cores, and few of the mid-range. As for those high grade… I believe I got none…"

He analysed this weird occurrence, finding it quite acceptable as a result. After all, like the bronze rank, there were three stages in the silver grade.

He was now at the mid-stage of the bronze rank. And what awaited him was the high-stage of it after crossing one thousand- and two-hundred-point mark.

To become a silver rank spirit master, William needed to cross the one thousand and five hundred mark. And it seemed like a long journey for him.

"Few more of these battles, few more of such heavy harvest, and I'll be able to do it before arriving at the Scorching Land," he consoled himself, while resisting the urge to go and absorb the two gold cores he had.

He still had one gold grade core that he didn't collect yet. It was the one that belonged to the LadyBug, and he wanted to get it once he'd get done from his business here.

"Time to see if I can do it," William didn't surround himself with such an array for just absorbing the cores. He knew there was no real threat in doing this, nor was it going to take a long time.

But as he reached the seven hundred mark, at the mid-zone of the bronze grade, he wanted to try out something he failed at before.

"I hope it's enough by now," he repeatedly took deep breaths, before finally stirring up his spirit. He only tried it once, when he got much lower spirit power than now.

His past failure taught him he lacked enough strength to activate his spirit. But after going through all these intense battles, he knew he missed out something crucial.

If he had his spirit activated like other spirit masters, he'd end up getting a reliable killing weapon by his side. And that made him quite eager to try it out right now.

"If I succeeded, I'd have a scary card up my sleeve," he encouraged himself, as failing would come at a price to pay.

"Ahh!" Just as he started to stir up and activate his spirit, he felt his entire body like getting tortured by endless needles. The spirit power all over his body got stirred up, rioting against his will, ending him feeling like he got lava inside his body, not spirit power.

"It failed!" he didn't need to wait for the end result to know that he failed. And when he said these words, it felt like someone cut out power from his body, all becoming dark in front of his eyes at the next moment, before losing out his consciousness.

William was prepared for such a result by deploying his concealment array before doing anything. But he never expected for himself to sleep for an entire day!

His absence created amok amidst his team. Everyone searched for him far and wide, even those five silver grade members went outside under the lead of Sara and Ibra, taking charge of the entire team to look for William out there at the forest.

They mistook him to vanish outside, killing monsters alone, like he did before.

Ibra didn't hide anything from them when they came looking for William. The last time they spotted William was when he was with Ibra. And the latter told them everything he experienced with William, ending up even describing the weird symbols he used to bypass the array.

When they mimicked the symbols, they ended up with the same authority given to William. They tried and found that they could get out and come in whenever they liked.

Ibra feared William to write down his name and curse him for real. So, he kept watching what William did back then using his spirit sense. And even if he knew the symbols, he didn't dare to try them out himself when he got trapped outside with William back then.

Then a grand search started for William after half a day. And that brought lots of fights to the team, placed them under heavy pressure, ending up for many to suffer wounds and injuries.

Everyone volunteered to take part in this search task, and they had to face many monsters out there with zero gains.

During the night, most if not all of the weak monsters got attacked or scared by the scary gold grade monsters. This turned the entire world around the protective array to be void of weak monsters, filled with deadly folks.

Every single time they tried to go deeper in their search, treading the parts of forest they couldn't see or detect using Ibra's spirit sense, they ended up fighting a scary dude.

Gradually, they started to think about the worst. No one would dare to stand against these monsters, even in a group like their team, even with a gold grade spirit master and a group of silver spirit masters by their side.

So, when they all thought about William's fate, they couldn't help but think about his demise.

"No, he is still alive," Berry kept saying this all the time, "I can feel it! He is still alive! Let's search further, let's look for him again."

"We did," Sara was also feeling the same as Berry, but she was more realistic and collected than her, "we went to the deep areas out there, ending up suffering many wounds for that. But not a single trace was left by him."

"It's like… He simply vanished in thin air or something during the night," Lang felt more responsible about what happened to William every time he saw Berry's ugly and dark face.

No one here liked to think or even admit it, but there was no other possibility but this.

"What shall we do now? That's what we shall think about," Ibra took the lead as he was the strongest one here, "let's make out a vote and see what we shall do next."

"It's obvious! Let's keep looking for him!"
