Chapter 760 A Battle Between Stars



"I've seen lots of weird stuff… Let me show you," the Cardinal took in a deep breath before taking out an orb.

William instantly recognised the orb in that Cardinal's hands. It was big like the size of a human's head, glistening with red lustre. It was the mind exposition orb, one that could relay what anyone had in their minds and project these to the outer world.

William didn't see anything useful about such orbs, after all who would want anyone to see what they were thinking about? Yet in such a situation, it was the perfect solution to show off what the Cardinal saw in the fate and destiny world.

William was eager to see, but most of the Cardinals weren't. It wasn't until that Cardinal let down a drop of his blood over, and the orb shone brightly and released a red beam, one that turned into a screen made out of red fog and started to show off scenes there.

The moment the scenes appeared; all the Cardinals focused entirely onto them.

"Play them again," the show didn't last for more than ten minutes, and yet most of the Cardinals didn't truly get everything. The Grand Cardinal said to the one who did the task, and the latter complied.

William kept his silence all this time, even when the Cardinal kept repeating the scenes for ten times! He knew the scenes shown were quite bizarre and unrealistic, unrelated to Leo at all.

What appeared were three stars, weirdly interacting with each other and affecting themselves. To the Cardinals, they didn't get anything from these scenes, even after replaying them for ten times straight. But to William, he could tell what was going on just from the first time he saw this.

The first thing that jumped into his mind was the bizarre experience he had when he met the black fox the last time. The stars that appeared there, how they negatively affected his trial and pushed him and the black fox against the wall made him understand more than anyone else watching these scenes.

To William, he could tell the identity of these three stars, identifying them as the three spirits he got in his body. The three were indeed fighting against each other, or to be more precise, two stars were trying to crush the third.

One star was trying to meet the other, while the third one was using illusions and such. William couldn't tell the identity of these stars thanks to the attacks used as the scenes didn't show much of the details about the battle happening between the three stairs.

He could tell from the faint symbols on each star, symbols that were written in ancient language, one that was only used in ancient times in the outer world.

A fox, a dog, and a snake! William didn't need any more clues to know the identities of these spirits.

From these scenes, which he didn't know how they got formed and got related to Leo's fate and destiny wheels, he could tell this battle was raging much wilder at his fate and destiny wheel.

If that kept going on, he knew his fox spirit would get overwhelmed eventually. He never expected the two spirits he added to be so ferocious and bloody, strong enough to pressure his legendary grade fox spirit and cause immense damage to it.

William didn't know lots of things about the spirit world, knew nothing actually about such a mysterious place. Yet it didn't require a genius to expect what would happen if the fox spirit got crushed and died.

His main spirit was now built on the black fox spirit. If that spirit was gone, then he'd lost his spirit forever, ending up with a backlash that he couldn't imagine its scale of damage.

"But that means also that damn fox will get hit by this as well…" William thought about his archenemy and got tempted to do nothing and let the battle end naturally with the defeat and death of the black fox spirit.

But he soon deleted such thought off his mind. He didn't know anything about the spirit world and spirits. What if the spirit that was getting such a poor ending was only a tiny portion of the black fox spirit? What if he was going to suffer alone, while his archenemy wouldn't suffer anything?

He thought about lots of things and couldn't help but decide to do everything in his power to put an end to such a battle.

As he was lost in his own thoughts, the Cardinals were having their share of the headache of these scenes. They got nothing, literally nothing from what was shown. And even when they tried to see Leo's fate and destiny again, they got only the same scene repeated over and over.

Even the Grand Cardinal himself went there to inspect what was going on, and yet he couldn't decipher these scenes or see anything different.

"What shall we do about this?" after wasting more hours in doing this, one of the Cardinals asked, while moving his eyes among William, Leo, and the Grand Cardinal.

"What else? We shall use formations to see more," the Grand Cardinal then turned to William, "this issue will take longer time than we expected. Why don't we finish the needed steps to join us and send you on your way first?"

"Sure," William wanted to reject, but for a reason he felt sudden worry over something. He got his friends leading the black tails team and went to the capital. More than a week had already passed, and out of the blue he felt weird worrying about them.

Besides he got that his problem came from a battle that was going on without his knowledge. He had the solution drawn on his back, only needing one of his friends to help.

Waiting here wasn't going to help, and so he agreed to finish his deals here and leave towards the capital, "What shall I do?"
