Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

"I don't have much time, so listen and don't ask any needless questions," that old fox seemed to be on a short time here, "that statue introduced himself as one like me, one like everyone else, but he came from another world, a much bigger and far stronger one."

"The vast world!" William's shock wasn't receding, but growing, with every single word this old fox was saying.

"He said something like that indeed… Strange… I thought such knowledge wasn't known in this world. Anyway, he told me he has the element of time, one that can see through the future and past, one that can be called a foresight. And he came here by paying a hefty price per a prophecy of his."

"About you? Or about this fort? Or about this world?"

"Neither," the face took a long moment this time before sighing, "I can't hide it. Since I learnt about this prophecy, and I held extreme envy towards you."

"Me? Why?"

"Because it's all about you," that face paused, sighed again, "that dude said that you are the key to this world's destruction or survival, to all the worlds' fate actually. And so, he came here, looking for you. But it seems he travelled back in time for so long to miss your time. And so he came directly to me as he knew you'd own this piece of land after my departure."

"..." William didn't know why but he realised that the one who came from the outer world didn't just cross the barriers between the two worlds, but also travelled through time itself.

"He let me use some sort of a forbidden technique, sacrificing myself and let me get bound into that statue of his."

"Statue? So, it's a fox statue?" William was still trying to grasp what this old fox was saying.

"Well, it was the statue of something like a dragon I believe. But now it turned into something different after I merged with it."

"But… What is in it for you?" William felt puzzled about this point. Everything seemed like a mysterious figure decided to come here and help him. But in return for that, he didn't promise this old fox anything back.

"He said that with you, I'll gain immortality."

"And you believed him?" William knew such temptation was something that all the spirit masters, monsters, and even the scary nine tailed fox, Transformers, and Mutants were dreaming of. But per his knowledge, there was nothing like that at all.

"He showed me lots of things, actually it was like he opened a screen and showed many events," that face paused, before adding, "I know you won't believe me if I told you this, but I saw our meeting here playing back then in front of my eyes as if I was attending it. I heard everything that we said, saw what you did, and also saw pieces of your future."

"Is it good then?" William didn't know why, but he felt like this dude got tricked back then or something.

"No, in fact your grand pursuit will fail!" the face paused, and William didn't know if this face knew even what he was speaking about or not, "I know you'll have many doubts, but I saw it with my own eyes. That fox you are after isn't simple, isn't like what you think it is. In the end, I saw you fall."

"Damn!" William's face changed the moment this face said his piece.

"I saw lots of bad things you made, like one you already did."

"Which is?" William was curious about this. After all, all he heard was just bullshit about the future, things that didn't yet happen and there was no guarantee they would.

"That Nightmare monster…" But what the face said made William tense up, "it's not what it looks like."

"What is it? Do you know?" William already had his rough guesses about this dude before. He was sure this monster wasn't just a simple or ordinary Nightmare monster.

"It's the same enemy you are after," and what that dude said made William not understand anything, "that fox… It doesn't just have nine tails; it also has the nine lives ability. And that means it can break its spirit up, send every seed to different worlds, before merging them together later on."

"This…" William's mind raced up. Just listening to such a scary possibility made it clear that his plans were going to fail.

He planned to train up, gather lots of trusted subordinates, and then face that damn fox in the end. Who knew this fox wasn't just a cheater in raising up its spirit power using the devour ability, but it also got something close to being immortal.

"That's why you'll fail if you keep walking down the path you selected," the face paused. And for a second there, the scrolls trembled all together, like some sort of miniature earthquake happened just now, "I got little time left. So, listen up, I left my spirit inside that statue, my knowledge and spirit power. Also, that dude did the same. And that's solely for you to use."

"This…" William had tons of questions that needed answers.

"Later on, when you arrive in that mysterious world, you'll be able to summon me again using that statue. Till then, make sure to find that Nightmare monster, don't kill it. Keep it entrapped by any means you can use, and that will be useful later…"

Just in the middle of this face's words, his voice suddenly vanished. And then the scrolls started to burn on their own accord.

"Don't focus on the darkness element only, that dude can use all elements, including time and space…"

And just as the scrolls kept burning fast, that dude moved his mouth and said these words without a voice before all the scrolls burnt away.

William could only learn about this, and what he learnt at the end was a mind blowing for him.

"That bastard…" William realised now that he knew almost nothing about his greatest foe's abilities.
