"A way out from here," William knew by telling them this, the secret wouldn't be kept within this group and would spread. Yet he didn't care about any of that.
This world had tons of formidable masters. But without knowing of a certain method to go out, no one would keep aiming to get stronger anymore, nor they'd be concerned by the issues of this world.
The delight of crushing obstacles and jumping from one grade of power to another was indeed priceless. Yet if the end result was for no one to go out from here, just live a little longer, a dull form of life that didn't suit a true master, then depression was the sole result of such a scenario.
William wanted to help the masters of this world, telling them that there was a way out from here. Not to mention his desire to lure this group of formidable masters to come and follow him back to his tiny world, follow him later on to the outer world.
William already gathered up lots of masters using his guild, but none were at the pinnacle of power, nor even at the high stage of dark gold grade. Such masters were always arrogant, aloof, or decided to distance themselves from anything that was related to the world's matters.
"You aren't bluffing, right?"
"No way this is true!!"
"I kept looking for a way out, but the facts are set in stone... There is not a single way out from here..."
"There are indeed many ways to go out from here," William interrupted their words, "but these ways are all hidden within the dangerous zones in the world."
"That's why you went to the swamps zone?" by what he said, everyone realised why he was this adamant at getting towards that zone, taking such risk despite it seemed futile and deadly.
And when they realised this, they couldn't blame him anymore. If they knew about this beforehand, they'd have also come with him, without any care about their lives or the dangers awaiting them.
"I can't guarantee anything, but..." he paused, before putting a serious look on his face, "I belong to a secretive group of masters, all working for the same grandmaster who is teaching us. He is one who isn't that strong actually, but in terms of knowledge, he is the best!"
William decided to use the old trick again, but this time he didn't have to make up a fairytale master. He would push Sloth on the stage, to act like that mysterious master of his.
As he started exposing Sloth as his mysterious master, he even said more. He said that this master came from another realm, passed through one of the gates in this world and was entrapped here. He was quite knowledgeable to detect the places of portals leading people out from here. And so, he sent him and many others to search for these portals.
William said that he read in one of the scrolls he found at an ancient site about the presence of one passage in one of the dangerous zones around this place.I think you should take a look at
The more he spoke, the more puzzlements became explained in front of these masters' eyes. Of course, they relayed the news back to their leaders, and such news created a stir back there.
William's words explained everything, why he came here in the first place, why he looked for scrolls to read, and why he asked for dangerous places around to visit as a form of a reward to his services.
All of sudden, everything he did so far seemed logical and made sense. But the news he revealed shook the high-end masters in the city, and later on would shake the entire world.
William didn't know that by his words that he casually said today, a hectic move would brim in the lines and ranks of normal masters all over the world. The dangerous places wouldn't be avoided anymore, and tons of expeditions would set sail towards these zones.
Many would die, tons of them actually. Yet lots of zones would uncover their secrets to the world. From then, a stable and fixed path leading people outside this world would get known, and those high end and pinnacle stage masters would regain hope, work even harder than before, and aim to touch the ceiling power of this world to go out.
Such a move would take long decades until it'd produce such results. During that time, William would return back here, but that story would be left for another time to tell.
William followed them towards the city, where he found lots of masters, leaders of the city, Angelica and Fonda, waiting for him at the main gate.
They came at nighttime, where they found lots of monsters surrounding the city. They fought for long hours until they passed through, and the city masters joined them, turning this into a grand massacre for the monsters.
William fought for hours, testing more about his new spirit body. He tested his cannonball move, which ascended to a whole new level by now.
He had inspiration about a new technique that could make use of this cannonball move in a different way. He tested it, using both darkness and lightning elements together, ending up succeeding.
He flashed forward, rolling on himself at the same time. This decreased his advance speed and the distance crossed by him greatly, only letting him pass through eight hundred metres. But at the same time, any monster or enemy he met during his charge was hit with his tails and weapons, seemingly gotten hit by a wrecking ball.
Monsters hit didn't just get hurt, but they were thrown away like they were launched by rockets. They hit other monsters behind, spreading damage and clearing a grand space around him.
The trail he left behind was a deep and long groove, one that was littered by explosions as the two antagonising elements clashed against each other, releasing a series of fierce and deadly explosions.
