Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

An eleven years old, bronze grade kid killed twenty-one dark gold Scarlet Bears alone? The scary and terrifying Scarlet Bears? That was a piece of news equal to its weight in gold for gossip meetings and such.

"What the hell is going on here?!!!" After a few minutes, the old man in front of William couldn't control himself anymore. He stood abruptly up, pointed at William as if he was pointing at a monster, "who are you?"

"I'm just nobody," William shrugged, "do you want to close this deal or what?"

"This…"

"Dad, let's buy these from him," Rose spoke up, rapidly absorbing this shock faster than her father.

"But… I'm more interested in knowing how you did it! How the hell did you do it?!!!"

"Well…" William didn't know why this man was this hyped against the Scarlet Bears, but it was all good news for him, "knowledge is quite pricey. If you want to know, I can surely satisfy your needs. But… I want to first know why you are interested in knowing."

"Kid, stop fooling with me," the man returned to his seat, seemingly ageing a little more years than what he looked before, "everyone knows, and you do know."

"I'm not," William slowly shook his head, "I really don't!" and when he shook his head, that man glared fiercely at him.

"Kid, my patience got limits! You aren't a simple dude coming from a pumpkin country place! You must be part of those high and mighty names in our fort! Someone like yourself can't kill these bears alone, not to mention you came looking specifically for me out of all people in the entire fort! That's not a coincidence at all!"

"Will you believe me if I told you it is the case here?" William felt a little helpless here. He didn't know why this man acted like this, but he had nothing else to say.

"Bullshit! I don't buy it!"

"Mister, he is really telling the truth," And when things reached such a point, Ro had to intervene, "he came from an academy called the Aspire academy."

"I know that place, it's a little retarded, one that can't give birth to such a scary talent."

"Believe me sir, I already met him there," Ro felt the same helplessness as William, "he is a disciple there, and this is his uniform."

"This…" the man looked again at William's bronze attire, and soon he noticed the slightly covered Aspire academy emblem under the armour William was wearing.

"I'm from that place," William sighed, "and so I don't know what problems sir had with these bears. I just came here, invited by one of your men, and met you by pure accident."

"..."

This time the facts were in front of the man's eyes. He looked around, and his eyes fell over the middle-aged salesman who brought William and Ro here.

And as everyone in the restaurant were already listening to their talk, that man knew what they were talking about, ending up nodding and confirming what William just said.

"So… You're telling me you came from the Aspire academy, managed to kill twenty-one Scarlet Bears, and ended up here to meet me? Me?!" The man kept pointing to himself as he couldn't believe any of this.

And William simply nodded.

"Ok, fine, I'm going to believe you then," he didn't have any other option but to do so, "tell me then, how in the world did you manage to do it?"

"I already told sir, knowledge isn't cheap," William acted as a sly merchant. He knew telling such knowledge wasn't going to be an issue.

First, he already exposed it for free to the Long clan. Sooner or later, news would spread from that place and arrive to distant places in the world like here. Besides, such knowledge was crucial for anyone to fight against the yet to happen disaster.

But there wasn't a big war going on for him to give such knowledge for free. And for a reason, he felt like he was going to have something huge in exchange for such info.

"I can give you anything you want," the man waved his arms as if wealth didn't mean anything to him, "but first, I need to ask if this method can be used by me."

"It can be used by anyone," William said at once, "and I need to hear your story first."

"Why? To raise the price? You can do it right away and I'll be happy to fulfil your desires."

"My demands aren't that much," William paused for a long moment, thinking about how to get the best out of this unexpected deal, "I just need a piece of land with a building, enough for a big team to live in. and I don't want to know your story to raise the price or something."

"Really? A piece of land here for a team base? That's a hellish price if you ask for my opinion."

"And I'm not," William smiled, "I'm just stating the price up ahead, so you won't get any wrong ideas."

"This…"

"I want to listen to your story for my reasons," William wanted to raise the price for sure. But if this dude was quite confident in his financial power, then it was meaningless to ask for another price, but the one William desperately wanted.

He came here and planned to do everything to secure money, enough to buy a piece of land for his team. But if someone delivered himself to him, then William wouldn't flinch in using the chance.

As for this man's story, it ended up right now to be William's pure curiosity.

"But his price is a little too much!"

"You are the one who said price won't matter, and I can ask for anything, right?" William didn't feel any shame while throwing back the man's words directly on his face.

"Tsk," the old man shook his head, seemingly regretting his previous show up attitude with William, "so you are interested in listening to this man's old tragedy? Fine!"
