Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

"We believe you got a chance in clearing the traps there," the first statue paused, "and if you died, then our deal won't happen. But if you survive, then you'll get anything you dream of."

"Anything?" William faked his uncontrolled desire and greed. And yet that wasn't truly what he was thinking about.

"F*ck! They seem to set their eyes over my land," he thought to himself, while trying to find a way out of this dilemma.

"Sure, be it wealth, women, men, gems, even a position at this fort… We can guarantee anything for you," the wolf shaped statue said, and William couldn't help but find something that would prove hard for those folks to accept.

"Then I got to ask for gems," he paused before he showed a serious look on his face, "and the lives of all the dark spirit masters in the region."

"What is that nonsense?!!!"

It wasn't just the wolf-like statue who shouted like this, but many others. Almost all of them shouted as if they heard the most blasphemous comment.

"I got a grudge against them," William took in a deep breath, "and I'm doing all this just to crush them."

"Then we are going to stop you! Do you want to be our enemy?" the first statue said in a threatening cold tone. For a second there, William wanted to clash directly against them.

But he had not enough power to crush these Transformers, not yet. Any of them was at least at gold grade, if not at the pinnacle of that scary grade.

If he was a dark gold spirit master, and if he was equipped with enough gears and weapons, he'd not flinch to face them head on. If he got all this and a good team on his side, he'd be confident in his victory. But that was for another time, not now.

"I'm not asking to be your opponent," William shrugged, "I'm just stating what I need for you to own part of my place."

"That place was nothing before, sold at a cheap price!"

"You even got it for free!"

"Don't try to bite what you can't chew! Drop that useless thing against the dark spirit masters. They are our friends and most trusted allies!"

"Indeed, they are," William thought to himself. After all, the two sides had deep relations before, and they had common goals and agendas as well.

But he kept all his thoughts to himself, slowly shaking his head, "I can't promise you this. If they dared to kill my family, then they got to pay the price! I'm not speaking nonsense here, and just is by my side."

"Nonsense!"

"Silence!"

Just before this situation would escalate any further, the wolf-like statue said in a deep tone. It seemed this dude realised how impossible it was to make William drop his interest for the dark spirit masters.

But that wasn't their intention from the start. "How about this… We want something from your place, some sort of ancient relic. If you bring this up to us, then you'll get all the gems you desire."

"Nonsense!" William shouted in his mind, but still kept his thoughts under control. If he sat his eyes over any gem in that hotel, then after this shocking meeting he dropped all the interests he got.

He didn't want to get gems to turn out to be spies for these scary folks. Till the time he'd grow in strength, enough to rival and kill them, he wouldn't risk exposing too much to such folks.

He also realised what these Transformers here wanted. It seemed they had deep ties with the ancient fox dude. And they wanted something stored deeply within that place.

"I'll try to survive first," William didn't promise anything, "but until I find that relic, you'll get to prepare yourselves for a hefty price."

"Anything is nothing in our eyes," one statue said, and William knew he wasn't lying. These folks lacked anything in the world but resources and wealth.

"Ok," William paused, "what's that relic looks like by the way? And do you know where it's out there? The entire territory is vast, and I can't find anything blindly out there."

"It's not something you'll miss," the wolf statue paused, "that relic is like a fox, a grand statue, just like ours."

"Oh," William tried to control his immense shock when he heard what this dude said. A statue of a fox? That meant only one thing… That dude wasn't a simple human, but a Transformer as well.

A Transformer who would get killed meant he'd get his spirit shattered. What'd remain though wouldn't just be a huge statue of him.

If it was just a normal statue, then no one of these folks would ever try to get it. But it wasn't, and William knew why.

Any Transformer getting killed would end up leaving behind not just a statue, but all the spirit power and knowledge he gained throughout his entire life as a Transformer.

Using special methods, such spirit power could be channelled to specific groups of people. First, they should share something with that dude, be it spirit type, spirit element, or even the nature of spirit itself.

For example, if that dude had an Earth spirit element, then any spirit master with Earth spirit elements would be able to get lots of benefits from this statue.

William was now sure this dude got a fox spirit, just like himself. And that made him able to get tons of benefits from this dude.

It wasn't just limited to absorbing spirit power, but it also extended to his fox spirit itself.

If William's guess was correct, then he'd end up having one more tail at least from absorbing the spirit power from that statue.

As for these Transformers, it was clear what they wanted. They shared the same nature with that dude. And they could get benefits from absorbing spirit power from it.

However… There was a catch!
