Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

Chapter 36 The Selvators



contemporary romance

"We… Only ran all the time from them," Lina's voice trembled when she realised what was going on. Her little sister collapsed out of exhaustion, hunger, and thirst.

And she also felt a strange weakness when she realised that.

"Wait here," William didn't hurry to leave before he checked the bodies of the dead kids. Even if they were traitors, they came from one of the famous clans in the Golden Sky academy.

"A good harvest," as expected, he found something valuable on the body of the leader he hit with his arrow. A dark red ring with a black symbol of a salamander appeared on the index finger of that leader.

"Young master… Don't…" just before he could take it off, Lina stopped him, "this ring has a tracing rune inside. The clan will be able to track its whereabouts and find you."

"Thanks for the warning," William felt her genuine worry over him, yet he still took it off. This ring was a storage device, just like the one Berry had. It was more suitable for him than the bag he had on his back.

"Such a little trick can't stop me," as held it, he injected his spirit power but didn't inspect the ring. He first sensed the body of the ring, before finally finding that small rune and crushed it.

*Sizzle!*

Like dried weed meeting fire, the salamander symbol was burnt to flying black ash before disappearing. "Like this it's not traceable," William placed it on his middle finger.

That leader had a bigger body than his, so the ring was a bit wider than his index finger. "He is worthy of coming from a big clan," just as he examined the ring's content, he was delighted to see what was inside.

Many resources were there! From a mere glance, William felt there were tens of thousands of spirit crystals inside. The space of the ring was around fifty metres square, giving him a far bigger space to store up his belongings than his bag.

He was a little disappointed to not find a single piece of decent gear to use inside. As for the gears these kids had, he collected them and added them inside the ring.

The best piece was the armour that the leader wore. But it got damaged by his arrow. William decided to find a way later on and fix this gold grade armour.

Without thinking about it, he took everything from his storage bag and placed them inside the ring. As for the bag itself, he threw it over to Lina for her personal use.

Such a ring would cost at least a hundred thousand spirit crystals in the market. Losing the five thousand worth bag he bought before wasn't an issue right now.

"Here... Give her a few drops from this and she will improve," he took a potion out of the ring and threw it over to Lina.

She didn't decline or hesitate to hold her sister, opening her mouth slowly, before pouring the few drops into her mouth.

"She is getting better," William checked and found that Tina wasn't in a dangerous situation at the moment.

The potion he used was the one he got from Ellina.

"Let's go," after doing all this, he led the two girls away from this location. He knew the next hours would be intense when other teams would arrive and find out about this massacre.

He left Tina for Lina to carry, while the two started their walk away from here.

But William didn't intend on going back to the academy right away. Instead, he led the two girls in wide circles, going deeper inside the forest.

He knew he wouldn't be able to evade monsters if he did so, but it was better than going towards the direction his enemies would predict.

After all, they were close to the territory of the Aspire academy. It didn't need a genius to figure out whoever did this to that group from the Golden Sky academy came from the Aspire academy.

So he had to take a long detour and waste more time walking around before heading back to the academy.

"What's your story anyway?" As the three went away from the massacre's location, William started to ask about the two girls' backstory.

He was truly curious to hear about what happened to them and what origins they had.

"We belong to the Selvator people," Lina answered without any hesitation.

"The Selvators… That explains it then," William nodded in realisation. Selvators were part of a few special existences in this world where they weren't like humans or monsters.

Unlike the two, the Selvators didn't have known spirits. William knew this was the main reason behind their inability to use spirit powers in this world.

But he knew far more than that. There was nothing like species without spirits. However, the spirits of Selvators were unique. Unlike humans and monsters, they had their spirits merged with their bodies.

That meant their bodies were the reservoirs of the souls they got.

Selvators in this world were famous for their inhuman physical strength. In fact, their bodies grew stronger much faster than spirit masters raising their spirit power ranks.

When he heard they were Selvators, he withdrew his earlier assessment of Lina's age and considered lowering it by two years at least.

That meant Lina, who looked like a ten years old girl, wasn't any older than him.

"We were part of a small family, one that was once a big clan but declined to a tiny scale. The Rockos clan's patriarch's grandson saw me in the academy and sought me as his girl, but I refused."

"Why is that?" William asked, "in fact it seems better to get attached to a stronger clan, right?"

"We can't betray our masters because they became weak," yet the answer Lina gave was firm and clear, "no matter what benefits he offered, my loyalty was for the Toros clan, the one who I swore allegiance to from the moment I was born."
