It didn't matter if you have a higher spirit power, what mattered was how you'd use it in the fight. Even the strongest spirit masters wouldn't stand a chance if he depleted his spirit power in such idiotic way like this group here.
"They…" the masked girl was taken aback by what she heard.
"Spirit masters with not enough spirit power to cast a single technique are like sitting ducks," William knew such a concept of fighting that wasn't known to this world. "Just go and I guarantee they will only scream and plead for mercy."
"They won't get any mercy from me," at this moment the masked girl was stirred up with the words of William as she coldly said. Holding two swords horizontally like they were wings coming out from her, she went in steady steps towards the all frightened and pale faced spirit masters.
In this world, only the spirit master would know if his spirit power was depleted or not. After hearing what William said, and seeing the death reaper coming to them, they got freaked out!
"Stay back, stay back or I'll kill your sister!" the leader, the only one with enough spirit power to fight, screamed in panic. He wanted to threaten her, but his voice came trembling and weak.
He had to feel like that! In a span of seconds his superiority here turned upside down in such a shocking way.
If his group got killed, then he had zero confidence in keeping his life intact against this brutal girl and weird kid in front of him.
His threat managed to force that masked girl to pause. "Do your business," yet the calm voice of William came as if he didn't put that leader in his eyes, "leave him to me."
The girl nodded towards William while the latter put aside his sword and took out his bow.
"I'll kill you damn liar! I never met a shameless spirit master like you before, acting like you are a porter," the leader shouted in rage and panic. Then he started to gather his spirit power around.
He didn't intend to use any of his techniques. After all, it proved useless against the all agile and slippery William. And he feared if he used a few techniques and missed, he would end up the same as his friends.
"Humph, who pulled such a prank on you and told you war was fair?" William snorted as he took three arrows and released them one by one towards the leader. "Blame only your clan for being such traitors to the human world."
The leader wasn't weak, and he still had enough spirit power. The first two arrows were evaded by a hair breadth before the third slammed onto him.
"Duck!" and just before the arrow would hit the leader, William shouted for the little girl to duck and protect herself from what was going to come next.
William easily guessed the direction that leader would move in. After all, he knew the spirit masters of this world lacked enough footwork in fighting and his third arrow would definitely hit that dude.
As the third arrow exploded, sending the body of that leader airborne, it came fast towards the little girl. But as she listened to his words, the little girl fell to the ground, letting that broken body of that leader fly over her, before he slammed heavily on a tree.
Landing there with deep wounds, he couldn't even move. The masked girl paused for a second, feeling a surge of shock inside.
The group of nine who tortured her all the way from the Golden Sky academy to here were simply going to fall here, by her hands! And it just happened in such an easy way!
And the most shocking aspect was that they fell under one single person, one who looked harmless and wore a porter uniform.
"Finish what you have to do fast and let's leave this place," William's words jolted her awake. He was right, after all it was hard to believe that the clan would only send one team after her and her little sister.
"Ahh!"
"You'll die a horrible death! Do you hear me? A horrible and lonely death! Ahhh!"
One by one the team was all killed by her. Even that heavily wounded leader was killed by the two swords of her.
William watched her moves and was surprised to not feel a single speck of spirit power coming from her. Even when some tried to run and she chased, she never used spirit power at all.
William frowned. From the strength she displayed, he knew she wasn't weak. But how come she didn't use her spirit power during the attacks?
"Thanks, mister, for helping me and my little sister," once done, the masked girl brought her sister along. With her words, she knelt on the ground while bowing her head deeply to William. "I'm Lina, and this is my little sister, Tina. we both are now in your care, young master."
William knew what these words and that stance meant. The two girls acknowledged him as a master. He thought little about that before waving his hands.
"Let it be this way, in front of others you call me young master. But between us, you call me big brother, alright?" He wasn't fond of having people linked to him in such a way.
Humans weren't animals, and he didn't like the idea of enslaving people. Yet he felt these two girls held a deep secret behind. Not to mention the clear grudge against one of the famous traitor clans.
"Thanks, young master," the little girl, Tina, spoke in a fragile tone before her body suddenly collapsed, giving her big sister a fright.
"Tina… Tina… Can you hear me?" Lina shook Tina's body but without any response from the latter. After simply examining her body, William found that it was so cold, and her little heart was weakly beating.
"When was the last time you had a rest? Ate and drank something?"
