Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

That made his run a bit hectic, unpredictable even to himself, and quite messy! He knew tactics and thinking about strategies to run here were all useless.

He got to depend entirely on his quick wits, his speed, and his luck.

But he never knew his luck was so low at this moment!

*Bang!*

And just when he was thinking about the best direction to escape towards, he ended up stopping abruptly as a loud explosion erupted just less than a kilometre from his place.

"Hahahaha! We never imagined meeting someone that high on our hit list this easily! It's our lucky day people, we'll get lots of rewards thanks to this little dude's head, hahahaha!"

"Dark spirit masters!" William's eyes constricted while his heart fell to his knees when he turned towards the voice's direction. In front of him, he saw many explosions happening one after another, blocking his path of going anywhere, completely surrounding him in a big circle of one kilometre radius.

Under the dancing lights of fire and explosions, William could see many dark silhouettes, covered up with dark cloaks, not showing anything of their faces and bodies, standing all around in different distances.

"Oh, the little boy knows us, oh my… I'm scared, hahahaha!" one of them, the one who spoke earlier, spoke up again. And this time, William managed to spot him and marked him as this group leader.

"You got the wrong dude here," William tried to baffle his way out using words, not knowing how his luck ran dry at this moment.

"Don't try to act funny," the one who spoke from the beginning took a few steps forward. He got a grand sword sheathed behind his back, and weirdly enough he wielded two daggers. He pointed one of them towards William and the other towards his head: "We can see your true appearance using a unique eye technique. Even from kilometres away, we can tell what your face expresses. Even this darkness won't veil your face from us, pretty boy."

"So generous to tell me how you spot me," William knew he got surrounded, and escaping this using his speed wasn't an option.

The words of this leader were quite clear, his earlier speed wasn't going to help at all! And yet, William didn't show any fear in front of these folks, "but I'm telling you, I'm not the one you are looking for."

"For real?" The leader tilted his head to the side, as if he was considering what William just said, "I swear your pretty face is exactly the same as the one in the posters distributed by my clan."

"I'm telling you, I'm not…"

"Better to be safe then and kill you," that dude said as if it was something normal to him, "let's start rolling boys, who is going to take the first bite?"

"Let me handle him."

William spotted twenty shadows standing all around him at this moment. One of these dudes just spoke up, raised his hand to grab a long sickle like weapon hanging on his back, "I didn't get to kill anyone since getting out. I hate such a feeling of being docile and peaceful!"

"Fine, Tomason is going to have the honour then," that leader said, before adding, "let's make this quick, shall we?"

"Let me have fun without any strings attached," the one called Tomason started to slowly walk towards William. And the latter could see him better as he kept approaching.

He was a very big dude, with a body that looked like a barrel, not a human body at all! William even suspected if this dude had to sew four uniforms together to make that black cape covering his body like this.

And when he got close enough, William finally saw a mark that he was familiar with.

"The Black Eye organisation? Damn! You are from a big background," William suddenly said these words, making even Tomason halt in his steps.

"You… How did you know about our mighty and scary name?!!" Tomason exclaimed in shock, and from such a tiny reaction, William could tell this dude was young and inexperienced.

"Quite expected of the man worthy of getting his name on the blood list," the leader paused, "Tomason, don't waste time. This dude gives me a bad feeling."

"I'm going to kill him fast then, just for your sake…"

And before Tomason would continue his words, William suddenly vanished!

"Don't give promises you can't make!" William's ice-cold tone came all of sudden from behind Tomason, rendering that dude startled.

"Watch out! He can use darknes…" And before that leader would complete his words, the body of Tomason showed many slashes that came without warning, before fountains of blood came out from his body.

"Just a silver grade dude? And daring to act this arrogant in front of me?" William tilted his head, evading the full-strength strike of Tomason's sickle while getting covered in a silver layer of power, "die!"

William would never show mercy against his enemies, especially those dark spirit masters, especially when he got outnumbered like this.

As he evaded the obvious strike that came from all wounded Tomason, William's sword moved faster and pierced that dude's heart.

And with such a strike, William heard the muffled sound of metal getting crushed, knowing that his sword managed to pass through this dude's chest armour.

"Watch out! Use your spirits and deadly techniques from the start! Arm up with all the gears you have…"

​ The leader got shocked as everyone else in his team, but he was the fastest to react to William's threat.

William knew he might be surrounded right now; however, the enemy made a big mistake. They didn't surround him in a close corner, or with his back behind the wall, but from a wide distance and in such an open space.

To him, this wasn't even close to what surrounding an enemy should be like!

*Boom!* *Boom!*

Just as the words of the leader landed, William was already on the move.
