Since the two formidable spirit masters managed to break the array, they focused entirely over spying on William. The two missed the area around and didn't detect the presence of such a young girl.
The girl appeared just a couple of hours after William started to try out the final version of his Holy Sword technique.
She couldn't see anything through the array William casted, and yet for a reason she felt a weird resonance inside her, one that she couldn't even explain.
She felt like she lost control over herself, stood there motionless for hours, while weird flashes of images kept playing in her mind.
She never got what these images meant until the array suddenly vanished, exposing the young kid who was inside.
The moment she saw his face, even from such a far distance, she felt tremendous shock.
She recognised his face; it was the same face that showed up in her unexplained images that popped up in her mind.
In these flashes of images, that kid was holding a sword, moving fast, slashing his sword around, before releasing a fearsome attack.
She kept having such images once per hour, and everything vanished like it never existed the moment William went back into the building to sleep.

Such a feeling was quite weird and new for her. And so, she decided to wait here, wait for that kid to come out from that building and ask him about such weird things.
And all that happened under the nose of the two scary spirit masters, but they never knew about any of that.
Even when that girl stood in her place motionless for hours, the headmaster never detected her presence. The latter cut off his spiritual sense after William slept and Kong left.
The headmaster planned to wait for William to wake up and meet with him before sending him to meet his fate.
But just in a few hours, he received an urgent report that required his instant attention. And so, he left instructions for William when he'd wake up, to wait for him and not move towards the Long clan's place before meeting up with him.
William was quite oblivious to all this. He didn't know that he stirred lots of trouble and brought the wrath of such a scary person like Berry's grandfather.
And he didn't know that he also attracted the attention of an unexpected young girl.
"Young master, you are finally awake," William was extremely tired, but for a reason he didn't sleep for more than five hours this time.
His excitement from getting his technique done took over his fatigue, ending up with him only sleeping a little this time.
"What's wrong here?" and as William arrived at the main hall, he found the two girls standing around an alien face to him.
Bright black eyes, long black hair, and a small nose that had a tiny sparkling silver earring at one side… A beautiful face of a young girl met his eyes.
He didn't know her, but for a reason he felt weird similarities with two people he met before.
"You are?" Despite having a guess in his mind, one he didn't want to accept, he asked to confirm what he thought.
"I'm Sara," and she spoke in a soft tone, and yet one that held determination and quite a confidence behind it, "I want to speak with you about something."
"Right now?" William couldn't help but raise an eyebrow when he heard what she said. He confirmed his early guess and was sure now this young and confident looking girl was the headmaster's granddaughter he heard about.
He knew she was a working maniac, and so seeing her standing in front of him like this made him quite puzzled.
And the way she spoke up made him more confused. She didn't even introduce herself properly or declared her current status. Instead, she directly said she wanted to speak with him.
"You can speak here freely," as she wanted to speak with him, William didn't act humble and met her confidence by sitting on a chair, placing one leg over another.
And like he did, she also sat on an opposite chair, placing one leg over another.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe wore a dark blue dress that was slightly tight at her chest, becoming tighter the closer it got down to her heels. And when she placed one leg on another, a long cut appeared that seemed concealed, exposing part of her white skin.
She was a real beauty indeed. But William wasn't just a simple spirit master. He didn't get affected by such beauty, and simply gazed deeply into her eyes.
She blinked twice before starting to speak:
"What were you doing in the garden last night?"
"It's something that isn't of your business," William knew she was trespassing her boundaries here and asking about things she shouldn't ask about.
But even if she acted rude, he wouldn't meet up her rudeness with a similar attitude. The words Tang spoke to him were still fresh in his mind.
So, he kept control over his words and tone, acting as neutral as he could be while firmly rejecting her request.
"I… I felt something weird last night… Something I can't explain…" As he refused to comply with her request, she didn't show any anger as William expected.
William still related this young girl with her arrogant brother. But it seemed the two were heavens apart.
"What did you feel?" William felt how struggling she was to speak up her mind as if she was really facing something she didn't quite understand. And that made him more puzzled.
He asked himself about what relationship he had with what she felt, and why she started up by asking about what he was doing last night in the garden.
