Reincarnation of The Strongest Spirit Master - Chapter 933: The Crazy Celebration

Before William would think of any excuse, he suddenly noticed five shadows coming into his cave.

“We won’t let you run away from the fun,” Karoline was the first to run towards him, grabbed his arm, and pulled him away, “Come on, let’s have fun! Fun is fun, hahahaha!”

“Wait, let me collect my stuff first,” William knew they’d not leave him to do anything like this. So he had no other choice but to go and enjoy his time with them.

“What possibly could go wrong?” he thought to himself while collecting the scrolls and other stuff in the cave. Karoline and others led him towards the place of the celebration held by the king’s orders.

It was weirdly back at the place of the destroyed capital. And there William spotted millions of normal people gathered there, singing and dancing, drinking and shouting, enjoying their time.

It was just the time of sunset, and after the night fell, things became more hectic and crazy! The fire spread all over the capital, making anyone seeing this from afar mistake it for another round of destruction.

William tagged along with his girls before they forced him to dance with them. There were different types of drinks and meals distributed among the people attending the festival, and William refused to have any of these.

Yet he was the only one doing so, as everyone else enjoyed drinking, eating, and dancing. Karolien called him the party boring master, a nickname that others found interesting and perfectly suited him. <subtxt> 𝙞𝙣𝙣𝒓𝒆𝙖𝙙.𝙘𝙤𝒎 </subtxt>

William kept their company till the early rays of the morning. Then many started to sleep, while others kept celebrating. “Don’t tell me this is going to last for days!!” he knew that normal people might get tired of doing this for one day, but masters could stay awake for days! And as he feared, the party continued for many days straight!

He tried to leave more than once and got ambushed by his friends. They were all enjoying their time, and that made him smile, happy about what they were feeling.

“Phew! It’s finally over!” After five days, the festival finally got concluded. Masters fell on the ground, sleeping like other normal people, extremely tired and exhausted.

As he kept himself away from dancing and drinking, he was sober and a lot better than all of the ones attending the festival here. As he got freed from this, he started to first roam around the capital, making sure there wasn’t any danger around.

“Oh, you are making a patrol on your own? Good boy indeed,” just when he started to do this for half an hour, he pumped into Sloth. The latter wasn’t alone, as he was with the same group of one hundred masters from before, alongside many others.

“I’m just worried about their safety,” William knew this old mentor was keeping an eye on him for the past half an hour. And his appearance here wasn’t a surprise.

“Don’t worry, the king won’t let his people feast and celebrate without ensuring their safety,” Sloth pointed around with his arms as if he was telling William this was just part of the army stationed around, protecting the people celebrating the hard-earned victory they gained.

Masters would fight and die, but normal people were the ones always celebrating in the end. And that was how spirit master life was.

“That’s reassuring,” William was prepared to excuse himself and return to his cave. He planned to sleep for a half day or so, before starting to unseal the scrolls and read their content.

“By the way,” when Sloth noticed his intention to leave, he stopped William by saying, “I heard that our princess is coming with you towards your home, is that correct?”

“Not my home,” William rolled his eyes, feeling like the entire situation was understood wrongly by many, “it’s the Scorching Lands city, not my home.”

“That’s still your current home,” Sloth winked, “anyway, you have to get used to my presence around you from now on. And I have to warn you, I’m not that easygoing if anything happened to my princess.”

“You are coming?” William asked in doubt, while looking around, “Why do you all try to ditch the ship that you painstakingly fought to protect and save?”

“It’s not a ship,” Sloth patted Willaim’s head using his knuckles, “it’s the kingdom. And it’s filled with far more talented and loyal masters than what you may think. Missing a couple of hundred masters from here isn’t going to make such a big difference.”

“A couple of hundred masters?!! Who else is coming?!!!” William felt like this was going way out of his control. He never invited anyone to come with him, and now he was faced with hundreds who would come.

“The princess’ guards,” Sloth buffed his chest, “led by me, and you can greet them all as they are standing behind.”

“Them?!!” William was more shocked by this. All of the masters standing behind Sloth were dark gold grade, and many were formidable and capable as they were the ones who made the drastic change in the past war.

“You don’t expect the kingdom’s cherished gem to go somewhere without enough entourage and protection,” Sloth winked, and William didn’t know why but he felt like this old man was doing this on purpose.

“You don’t have anything else to do?” he couldn’t help but ask, “the kingdom needs more protection now than ever!”

“Don’t forget your place is situated far away from the capital, so we are also helping the kingdom this way,” Sloth was adamant about coming, and William couldn’t say anything to stop him or others. Not to mention, having such a strong force around would be good. Only if they followed his orders and accepted the missions of the guild.

Thinking about all that made William recall something. In the middle of everything that happened here, there was a tiny rat that didn’t show up and seemed to manage to run away in the end.
