Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master -
Chapter 89 - 89: I Won, Right?
"I've just answered your question, right?" William's smile never vanished or even faded, "after all, it's not polite to try and ask about one's secrets, right?"
The two were at loss of words and didn't get how the mind of this little kid even worked!
Even when faced with such a dark gold spirit master, William wasn't showing any sign of fear. Instead, he kept returning words by others, not showing any weakness at all!
Even Callom had to freeze in his place for such an attitude from William. He watched how the two knives were drawn to William's side, and kept hovering in midair around him like they were teasing him.
"This… Fine, but how about your arrows then? I never saw something like this in the academy at all. Did you make them?"
"That's correct," William didn't deny this.
"You'll need to prove this by your actions then!" Callom didn't like how William pulled the knives off his back. So he decided to corner him and let him make the arrows in front of him, as a form of an apology or retribution or something.
"If my friend's father is seeking such arrows and knives from me, you can simply do it by directly asking. Why lean towards such twisted methods?"
As Berry's uncle read through his brother's intentions, William also did. Yet the latter didn't give a face to Berry's father and exposed his little scheme in such a bold way.
"You… You…" and as William said it, Berry's father couldn't help but frown for a few seconds before getting over his surprise. He never expected that such a little kid would see through what he really wanted.
"Well, if it was up to me, then I'd have shown senior how to make these arrows… I'm not lying to you," William knew he acted a bit too much, so he started to retreat a little step back, "but I can't! I have a formidable master by my side, and she was the one who taught me such a technique, and also she prohibited me from telling anyone how to make them."
William said this for a good reason. He would sell such goods at the Forging department of the academy. So, putting a good show here to secure a deal from such a mighty and wealthy clan wasn't a bad thing.
Besides, he was sure one just watched him while he was fighting in the forest. If so, then this mysterious person saw him fight using his arrows and knives.
He knew anyone hearing about him using arrows and knives would have lots of questions. So William used his fake master front to stop any thoughts to force him to spill anything out about these.
That spirit master was indeed part of the clan. Or else that academy headmaster would have shown signs of him knowing about his little secrets. That was what William thought about.
He didn't know that the headmaster already knew after that trial. So the latter didn't bring such things up as the second time they met was quite intense.
"And? Do you think the Long clan fears anyone?" Berry's father responded in such an arrogant manner.
"I didn't mean that," William slowly shook his head, "but the ways of forging such items and more are my master's great secrets. I can't tell anyone about these. I hope senior can understand."
"This…"
"But I got another piece of good news for uncle," and just as Berry's father didn't know what to say, William returned to call him uncle. Such a swift change in his words made the two elders in front of him respond by raising both eyebrows at the same time.
"These items and much more will be sold at the academy Forging department."
"So, you refuse to show us your way to forge it and instead you are showing those to the academy artisans? And what's with that uncle thing? Wasn't I your senior a few moments ago?"
Even if William gave him such news, Berry's father didn't intend for such a change of attitude from this daring and rude kid to go without a remark.
"We were just sparring, and in that you are my senior. We are done, and I'm the winner. So now you are my dear friend's father."
"Dear… Heavens… Then how come you plan to teach the Forging department about your master's ways and not show them to us?" Callom didn't drop this matter easily. And in return for his stubbornness, William coughed.
"I didn't say anything about teaching them."
"Then…"
"I'm the one who is going to make everything," William seemed like he wanted to show off or something, "and like this, my master's secrets are all safe, right?"
Callom didn't plan to drop this matter just like that. And from the side, Gran only noticed this. He didn't speak as he knew how learning such genius ways in forging would help the entire clan. But when he expected Callom to keep pressuring William, the former suddenly backed off.
"Fine! I won't pursue this matter… For now at least."
Callom said this while shaking his head in regret, as if he was sad by such a result. Yet his little act didn't fool his cousin.
'Old patriarch… You must have intervened!' Berry's uncle knew if there was a person able to force Callom to drop such interest within a second, then it'd be none other than his uncle.
And that was truly what happened.
"So… It's my win and so…" William even winked, a move that resulted in Callom's face growing long all of sudden.
Callom promised William that if he won, then he'd be allowed to come here and meet with his daughter. But that was just an empty promise, one that Callom never intended to do in the first place.
"Ahem," Callom cleared his throat, "it wasn't a fair spar anyway so…"
"Are you backing off right now?!" William blinked, acted as if he was taken aback by what Callom just said.
"I… Wasn't using my spirit power!" Berry's father bellowed back in such a weak argument.
