Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

Chapter 85 A Slip Of Tongue



"What? Don't think you are going off this as well! I will deal with you later, young lady," Callom spoke in a much harsher way than what the headmaster did to Sara in William's eyes.

What William didn't know was that this father was much more overprotective and attached to his beloved daughter. Even if he felt grateful for William's actions to save his daughter from her misery, he couldn't take what he saw when Berry jumped into William's embrace out of his mind.

Just seeing this made his blood boil in rage, and he wanted to teach this kid a lesson on the spot to warn him from coming closer to his daughter again.

If not for what William did to Berry, Callom would have even thought about cutting this kid's head and letting it roll on the ground to get rid from such trouble once and for all.

"B… But…" Berry turned to her uncle who helplessly lowered his head, refusing to step in and help William in such a dangerous situation.

"It's alright," yet unlike what everyone expected, William unsheathed his sword as he added, "I'm sure senior won't bully such a weak and young spirit master like me, right?"

"Damn this tongue of yours! I now know how you made my girl fall for you! Come, let me see what you got other than that toxic silver tongue of yours."

"William!!" Berry turned and tried with her reddened eyes and specks of tears over her face to dissuade him from doing this.

"It's going to be alright," yet William just patted her shoulder, having to stand on his toes to do that.

After all, Berry was at least ten centimetres taller than him.

"Humph! Daring to touch her again in front of my eyes? Quite bold and reckless! Do you have a death wish perhaps?!"

William did this on purpose indeed. He didn't like how he got invited here in the first place. And instead of this loving and caring father to thank him for what he did for his daughter, he issued such a challenge and dealt with him in such a rude way.

But William didn't know that this was how this caring father used to get to know people better.

He was such a strict spirit master, even on himself and those close to him. He didn't like talking to get to know others.

As he always kept saying: Tongues can lie and cover up fake souls and twist intentions, but swords don't.

So, he issued this challenge to get to know William better, and to know his true intentions towards his daughter.

Also, he was curious about him. Such a weak looking spirit master, even shorter than his daughter, managed to cure his daughter's incurable disease by the opinion of all the grand and prestigious physician spirit masters in the entire kingdom and even beyond.

And as William dared to accept his challenge without even pleading for him to be stopped, this father placed a few good points in his favour, just a little.

And in front of the two stubborn males, two of the closest to her heart, Berry couldn't help but tremble in fear while her eyes kept releasing silent waves of tears.

"How are we going to compete?" William stood twenty metres away from this scary spirit master.

Spirit master duels had many versions, and so William wanted to know what they'd compete in right now.

Trying to fight him using spirit power was insane! As for techniques, William knew a lot but didn't have time to practise any but his Holy Sword one.

And if he used it to compete with such a dark gold spirit master, the grade William expected Berry's father to be at, he'd end up without getting any advantage on him.

His technique was overbearing, enough to wound gold grade spirit masters. But Callom was stronger than that.

"I'm your senior as you just said, so I won't use any of my spirit power. But don't celebrate it too early… A spirit master of my calibre isn't weak without his spirit power."

"A dark gold spirit master you are, right?" William didn't show any expected sign of joy when Callom said he wouldn't use his spirit power. And that made Berry's father more puzzled.

"My daughter told you about my grade... Interesting!"

This was the only explanation for how William knew his spirit master grade. But William got it from just not sensing a single speck of spirit power from him, even when he stood this close by.

Such a thing meant this father was a spirit master higher than him by at least two grades. And as he was now a bronze spirit master, that meant this father was dark gold grade at least.

Not to mention Gran was around his age and was an elder like him. As Gran was a dark spirit master, William guessed that Berry's father wasn't any much weaker.

"What are the rules?" William asked again, and that made everyone watching this feel that William was the stronger one amongst these two.

"You got balls, I give you that," the father slowly nodded as his will to fight got stirred up by William's calm attitude, "I heard that you use different ways to take down monsters. Bring it on and show me what you got."

'Killing monsters using different ways?!!' and just by hearing this, William felt vigilance for the first time ever since being here.

When he met the academy headmaster, he realised that those traitors who pointed a finger at him faked it all.

He never thought that someone was trailing and watching what he did.

But from these casual words of Berry's father, William got that he was indeed being watched.

He killed monsters without any companion, except for the two girls here who belonged to him and never spoke about this with anyone else and would never do.

And since that time, he never met a single monster or killed one. So, if anyone saw him do it, it must have been since that time when he was in the forest.
