Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master



"Leo, I got intel about that region," one master suddenly approached a young man, one who just looked twenty years old.

He was Leo, the leader of the Scarlet Eye legion. And they got this unique name thanks to this young man.

Even if he was young, even if he was just at the early stage of dark gold grade, he wasn't someone to be taken lightly. In the entire Fate Sacred Cult, he got a name for himself; the Deadly Asura!

"And?" Leo passed his fingers through his long silver hair, a habit that he used to have when excited. And he got the reason for it.

He just ended a mission which went all wrong. He faced a stubborn enemy and had to massacre everyone living around hundreds of kilometres to get rid of a nasty infestation curse.

The higher ups didn't like how he did things back there. As he had a long track of bad records in dealing with his missions, he expected a severe punishment this time. Last time he went off with a strict warning and light punishment. But this time he expected to get demoted or something.

Yet least to his expectations that he got another assignment just when he expected the worst. This one was a highly valued mission, one that got the full attention of the Cardinal Council back at the cult.

He heard the brief about this mission. And he got to know there were lots of gaps in the information provided by the cult. So, he sent his scouts to see if they could gather up intel before arriving in that region.This chapter is updated by ɴovel(F)ɪre

"That place suffered lots of turmoil in the past month. It started when a young master came from the Scorching Lands, one who is famous as the Fox master…"

His right-hand master started to speak about the intel gathered by the scouts they sent. The more he spoke, the more Leo understood the general situation out there.

"... And now there is a huge war going on at that dark academy side. It's the Blue Hills, not too far from our current location."

"Luckily," Leo smiled, and that smile meant he was ready for another massacre, "any clue about the one who rang the bells back home?"

"So far all the intel we got speaks about the Cursed Black Clouds," the master who was a few years older than Leo paused, and the latter got his face changed the moment he heard such news.

"Don't tell me they covered the entire region already!"

"Well… That indeed happened," the master paused, "and on top of that, we didn't sniff the whereabouts of the one who caused all this."

"Hoyo, that's quite bad!" a tough looking master approached, looked at Leo before adding, "last time we ended up killing a million masters to get rid of such nasty things. Boss, are you cursed or what?!"

"Hahahaha, stop it Jeremy, our boss is indeed blessed with bad luck and the wrath of heavens, hahahaha!" the right-handed master laughed, and Leo ignored the two of them.

"You told me they brought an army of hundreds of thousands? Not to mention the dark ones inside that damn place… It's hopeless…"

"Boss, we should inform home about this," Jeremy cracked his knuckles, "I don't mind doing my job, but hated it when we got all the blame with zero thanks or appreciation for it."

"Yes boss," the right-handed master, named Rockos, nodded as he chimed in with his friend's words, "we need to get their full support on this."

Leo looked at the two before taking something out. Yet before he'd do anything, Rockos received a new intel that made his face slightly change.

"Wait boss, there's an update," he hurriedly stopped Leo from activating the secret method to contact home, "not all the monsters are inside that region."

"What do you mean?" Leo was holding some sort of a seashell, big enough to fit in his hand, made out of azure green pure and semi-transparent ore.

"Most of them are standing outside, surrounding the entire place," Rockos was also puzzled like Leo, "they just sent three teams of thousands, at most ten, towards that dark academy."

"Just ten thousand? Did they already kill all the dark masters?"

"The dark masters are still alive," Rockos kept listening to more intel from the eyes they sent towards the Blue Hills, "they are around one hundred thousand, if not more."

"That… What do they think of? Are they crazy?" Jeremy exclaimed in doubt, but Leo answered such news with a loud laugh.

"At least we are going to escape this without any penalty. Saving hundreds of thousands on the cost of just ten thousand? That's not a big deal."

There was a certain system to assess any team's performance at the cult. One of the parameters was about the percentage of survivors on the cost of the ones getting killed.

"I want to hear everything about what happened there," Leo led everyone in his team and went towards the Blue Hills, "I want to understand why they didn't send everyone out."

"Working on it!" Rockos spoke with the scout team members and let them know about their new assignment.

And soon enough, Leo and others got to know about what happened back at this war, and why things ended up in such a way. It was easy to get such news from the huge number of masters who surrounded the area. And among all their talk, one name kept repeated all the time: William.

"What an interesting youngster he is," Leo's interest got piqued by what he heard, "try to find a way to communicate directly with him."

"For what?" Jeremy rolled his eyes, "don't tell me you are going to break another sacred rule of ours!"

"Come on, rules are meant to be broken, right?" Leo intended to speak with William, a thing that was forbidden in their cult, "he is related to that alert from before. And I'm sure he got something to do with the one who did all this."
