Chapter 543 S Grade Fate Sacred Matter



William muttered these words, feeling that fate and luck were on his side this time. He was going to visit the Novistic kingdom capital at the end of his journey. It'd be just great to find one breeding place and kill everything inside while he was there.

Who knew, he might also stumble across the mystery of how these Transformers could breed new generations of theirs.

"That's what I saw… For a reason, I feel like this place is familiar. But I can't grasp where I previously saw it…"

"No problem, I'll dig that place out myself," William said in a decisive tone, "can you do something else for me?"

"Another scary question? Please, I got enough to stop answering anything for an entire month at least."

"Oh, I see… Thanks for the trouble again, and sorry about that backlash."

"It's not your fault, partially," the old man laughed, "but I'm curious about you… Who are you?"

"Don't try to take a peek," William laughed, waved his arm while turning to leave, "if you do, you'll end up having a much worse backlash than what you just suffered."

William wasn't joking. He knew he got a high role to play in the future. And so he was as well protected as this fox.

As the old man feared to use his spirit again, William had to drop asking him to collect news of that weird Long Feather academy, or the one impersonating his identity. He left with his little team, heading out after giving a few elixirs to the old man in the form of an apology, and for the sake of his master.

"Are the Scorching Lands city and our guild in danger?" This was the first thing Smith asked, while the other two looked at William in wait.

"I frankly don't know the answer to that," William wasn't lying, "but it's better to send them a warning. Is there a place where we can send long distance Bullets or something?"

After staying with William for a long time, his team got used to his frequent use of this term instead of Message Papers. "There is indeed a place like this… Follow me," sending Smith out to scout and gather intel proved its worth at this moment.

William started to walk away, not realising that he attracted a hidden power's attention towards himself without even knowing anything about this.

"Are you telling me he recognised your spirit from a glance?" Ten minutes after William and his little team left, that old man went deep inside that building. He kept walking in long corridors, heading deep underground, before ending up at a place. There, a portal was placed in the middle of a big hall, without anything else aside from it.

The old man passed through the portal, appearing in a place that was hundreds of thousands of kilometres away from that city.

When he appeared, he arrived at another building. Yet this one was made entirely out of ores. It didn't have windows and was literally carved in the heart of a big mountain, with rocks surrounding and pressuring it from all directions.

Thanks to the brilliant masters who built this place, and many formidable arrays placed around, this building could lay there, without getting crushed under the brutal weight and might of the mountain.

There was no way out or into here except through portals that filled the place. From a glance, anyone could tell it was a hidden base of a hidden, and formidable power.

The old man came out from the portal inside a small room. He exited it, headed through a long corridor where he ended up in a vast hall. It wasn't empty, but filled with lots of desks and spirit masters, all working on scrolls. They looked the same as this old man when William first met him.

He went without the need to ask or look for any directions and headed towards one desk in particular. There he sat, greeted the man opposite to him, and narrated what happened with William minutes ago.

"That's why I came here… Not only that, but the question he asked seemed to be related to a Fate Sacred Matter."

"Fate Sacred Matter? Are you sure? What grade?" The man didn't show any change on his face. After all, this wasn't the first time to hear such an intel, and it wasn't that rare actually to receive such news.

"I'd say… At least grade S," the old man William met paused, "or perhaps higher."

"..."

Just when the man sitting on the desk heard that, he slowly stood up, with his eyes widening in immense disbelief.

"Are… Are you sure?!!!" he had to ask. After all, the purpose of this hidden force was to search for any S grade Fate Sacred Matters from all over the world.

This was just a local headquarter, one that was connected and followed a much grander headquarter in the capital of an empire on another continent. This place was given the task to supervise the entire Novistic kingdom. And it was the first time in the entire history of this branch to find an S grade Fate Sacred Matter.

"I'm sure," the old man paused, looked at the much younger spirit master sitting in front of him, "this is what happened…"

He started to narrate in more detail what happened, what he experienced, speaking about things that he never told William. Most of his talk was related to the backlash that he suffered, how it felt, and things he saw when he tapped into the world of cosmos. After he finished, the young man knew this was a big deal. He also knew it was something beyond his payment grade.

"Come with me," the middle-aged man grabbed a scroll that he wrote something there in a hurry, turned around and started walking towards a different corridor.

The old man tagged along, and they ended up in a room where there was another portal inside. But this one was a bit different.
