"Just speak up and don't worry, I won't judge," as he saw how conflicted she looked when he said his earlier world, he added, trying to encourage her to further explain what troubled her.
"Sigh! It's like this…" and when she listened to his words and started to speak up, William got an instant scare and quite the shock!
Everything she said was like she stood in front of him and watched what he did last night. The more she tried to describe the weird images that appeared in her mind, the more shaken he became.
She was precisely and accurately describing the times when he executed his technique last night.
Everything she said he did, and she even described his moves very accurately.
"And so I decided to come here and ask you about that. Can you explain what I experienced last night?" she paused, giving him a careful look before adding, "I saw your face in these images, and all this vanished the moment you came out from the garden."
"Hmm…" despite feeling quite shocked, he didn't confess or deny doing such things. He controlled his face to not show any of his disturbed thoughts at the moment as he added in a calm tone, "I want to ask, what did you exactly feel back then?"
"That… Is hard to describe," she hesitated, as she was really finding it hard to answer that question of his, "I felt like… I had some relation to what you were doing. Something moved inside of me, something that compelled and forced me to stay motionless for hours and watch nothing but an empty garden until you came out from it. How did you do that by the way? It looked like you teleported there or appeared out of thin air!"
He now realised that she didn't see through the protection of his array. And that made him not feel any better.
The first explanation he got in his mind was that this young girl had something special that allowed her to see through his array. But that wasn't true. She couldn't see through the concealment of his array.
"If that's the case then…" as he rejected such possibility by what she said, he mumbled to himself, thinking about a much crazier possibility, "can I ask you to do something for me?" he suddenly looked up at her and asked.
"What thing?" She felt weird about what he said. She came here seeking answers, and now he wanted her to do something for him.
During the time William created a fuss in the academy, she was pretty much busy with training.
Tang wasn't lying, she was a true embodiment of what a work maniac should be. She kept her entire time training or reading ancient records and manuals in the library.
So she never learnt about the storms William caused, nor even heard about William's name before.
She learnt about his name from the mouth of the talkative Tina while William was sleeping.
After William entered the building, she couldn't control her curiosity for more than three hours and finally decided to get into the building and seek William out.
As William didn't get out at all for three hours, she just came inside and met the two girls. Lina was quite sceptical about her, but Tina was very welcoming.
From the latter, Sara learnt that they stayed here by the invitation of her grandfather. Despite feeling a little weird about that, she had no say in such matters and didn't think much about it.
She had far more important things to keep her mind busy, not caring that much about the real reasons behind her grandfather's weird actions.
"I just want you to hold this crystal…" William took out one spirit crystal and a light candle from his ring, before simply explaining things over to her.
"This…" after listening to his simple explanation, she couldn't help but ask, "what will this do?"
"It will show things about your spirit and power that common means can't show," William didn't hold back such a thing off her.
After all, he already had a wild guess in his mind about the reason behind what she experienced last night.
And telling her that would save him a lot of trouble later on if what he thought would come true.
"Weird…" She was quite a knowledgeable spirit master. She read tons of records and manuals, read through many weird stuff and secrets that she lost count for.
But she still never heard of such a way before to test out one's spirit and power.
William heard before from the headmaster himself that Sara was studying at the third year class. That meant her spirit power was at a silver grade, having over one thousand and five hundred spirit power.
That was quite a distance away from what he currently had. But that didn't make him feel any disappointment. He knew he started out quite late than others. But he got a cheat code that'd secure his advantage later on over his peers.
"Like this?" And as she did as he asked for, covering up the crystal with the green material from the light candle, she raised her head and asked for a confirmation.
"You are doing it right," and William nodded, while his eyes never moved aside from the crystal in her hand.
If she came here out of curiosity about what happened last night, then William had much more curiosity to know the reasons behind what she experienced.
After all, she managed to feel and see things she couldn't possibly have under normal situations.
And in the next minute, many dots started to shine inside that small crystal.
"Wow! That looked pretty!" Even if she was a work maniac, she was still a young girl. And like all girls, she got attracted to pretty stuff.
Unlike her, William didn't get attracted to the crystal thanks to the pretty look it had, but to closely examine the densely packed dots inside that crystal.
