Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master
812 Striking Out A Grand Deal
"What do you mean?" many whispered in doubt, while one asked what others had in mind.
"There is some sort of portals," William didn't find their ignorance about these portals surprising. If they knew, then this world would have changed drastically than the current state it was in.
They'd gain access to more worlds, learn about the spirit body summoning ability, and they'd find a way to cure such curse over them, "they are called the interworld portals. They are massive, very huge, emitting a dense amount of spirit power, one that will attract the attention of scary monsters, and bring forth deadly natural disasters in the region they are in…"
William described in general the main features of these portals. He gave them general intel, yet to anyone who belonged to this world, these information would greatly help.
"Well… If you say you are looking for such dangerous places, then we can point towards many of them," Fonda looked at others of her family leaders, and they nodded, giving her permission to add more, "there are three places nearby, all of them are famous for being quite deadly. No one ever entered there and managed to come out before. So…"
"Don't worry, I just need you to locate these places for me and I'll go there personally," William said as if they were fearing for their lives, not his.
"Oh, I didn't mean that…"
"It's ok, it's my destiny to try out dangerous places and seek deadly adventures," William raised a hand to stop her from adding more, "just after ending up our deal, can you bring me a map and give me directions towards these three places?"
"Well…" Fonda turned to look at others, and after a long minute of silence and hesitation, they slowly nodded to her one by one, "fine… But please consider this again. You can live like one of us here if you want…"
"Thanks, but this isn't my destiny," William wanted to return back to his world, continue what he was doing there. He had a fierce enemy to deal with, and he wanted to expand his fox guild. Not to mention his new identity as one of the Cult's cardinals, a force he needed to add to his army before heading towards the outer world.
As for this world, he didn't plan to leave without returning. From the scrolls he got that this world was a link to all other worlds, including the one of the spirits. Not to mention he planned to bring his guild and friends over, letting them find shelter here if he couldn't stop the impending disaster in his tiny world.
"We can speak for ourselves," after a few elders and leaders tried to dissuade William with no avail, one of them said, "we will honour such a deal with you. Give us a moment, we'll finalise a contract now. Give us one hour then."
"Great, I'll wait outside," William knew they'd accept his conditions. Even the one regarding the pocket world. After all, they had to just pay a single pocket world for their city. As for other city owners and royal families, they would decide this for themselves.
William waited outside for less than an hour before the contract was done. The leaders didn't need all this time to write down the contract, and simply wanted to discuss more about this deal.
All of them agreed without doubt. What William didn't know was that everything that happened here was watched by the spirit sense of many others.
In fact, the group of masters he met wasn't the true leaders of the family but considered as their vices. As for the true leaders, they kept themselves in the dark, watched in silence what was going on between William and their trusted masters.
These leaders agreed on what William proposed. In fact, they grew interested and greedy for gaining the privilege he spoke about, learning lots of knowledge and secrets from other places.
As things were all sorted, they sent messages to all the cities who they got good relations with. As for other cities, even the ones they got bad ties with, they sent messengers to relay and spread the word.
They knew such a deal would be considered ideal in the eyes of many. These scrolls were left for a long time to rot in their vaults without any use. So, if someone claimed to know how to read them, in return for such a small price to pay, then they'd accept for sure.
William didn't know that, but the city owners asked for a similar price for their services as well. They didn't ask just for pocket worlds, but also for lots of resources and treasures. Any city could select from a short list and pay these to the city owners here.
William didn't know that, and even if he knew, he'd comment with nothing. He didn't care about anything else but his gains, and as long as the city owners wouldn't touch his things, he'd stay silent about anything else.
He signed the contract, and then was led towards the royal library again. This time, there weren't just five of the youths waiting for him there. A large number of royal family members were present, and they all helped to get lots of items out of the sealed shelves.
William already asked the royal family elders and leaders about this point. He was going to read much more scrolls this time, and the routine of working for two hours and resting for five wasn't going to work with him.
As everything was settled perfectly fine, he started to work and read tons of scrolls. Days passed in a flash, and weeks went by like they were hours.
William stayed inside the library for almost two months straight. He didn't take a single moment of rest outside. Just from time to time, he'd ask them to distance himself, surround an area there with lots of arrays, before he'd start writing down what he learnt.
