Just as William did that, he cleared the rings from their content. And now he could see through the leftovers there.
pαпᵈα-noνɐ1·сoМ Most of the rings got nothing else except for monster cores and various materials. William didn't care about these cores, as he didn't kill any of these monsters himself. And so, he wouldn't be able to absorb any of them.
Aside from these cores, he found what he was looking for. He got out five scrolls, the same as the one he got before. "So… There isn't just one copy of these scrolls…" he recalled the materials and herbs he found in these five rings specifically, thought about the gold grade sets of gears he found before in them. Linking all together, and it wasn't that hard to guess the identities of the owners of these rings.
They were leaders of their teams. William looked at these five sealed scrolls and felt that he'd not get anything out of them.
"Without the right way to unlock the final seal, without having a way to make these scrolls release their mysteries, then it'll be pointless…"
He sighed, stored these five scrolls aside, putting them beside the one he failed to break its final seal before.
Then he checked the rings again, found nothing else but ores and herbs, before finally storing everything and turned to Thomas.
As William expected, Thomas didn't disappoint him and learnt this simple technique in less than one hour.
Just one hour was all it took for Thomas to execute this technique properly. And the first thing he noticed was how the world around changed in his eyes.
It became all grey, with sparkling dots at places where William trained and executed his attacks before. He saw sparkling silver white dots, like little stars or something, and also spotted the thin silver white threads that extended from them.
And when he followed these threads, he found them all converging and gathering at William.
"You… You are the one who caused all this?!!" Thomas was shocked and couldn't help but mutter while his body trembled in fear.
He didn't know why, but he didn't just see the links between William and these holes, the leftovers of a brutal fight in the area. He could feel how scary the attacks who caused all of this were.
And that made him reflexively see William as if he was a deadly beast, not the bronze grade spirit master who looked too weak to do anything harmful or threatening.
"That means you already mastered it!" William's eyes shone before laughing, "I knew you were a good spirit master, hahaha!"
"Is this the effect of the technique?!" Thomas didn't get any of what was going on. To him, he was just experiencing a weird time with his new and bizarre master.
"It's the Karma Leading technique," William slowly explained, "using this, you can link any relationship between anything and anyone."
"Is this useful?!" Thomas didn't see any use in such a weird and simple technique.
What was the use of knowing the link between things people caused and the people who caused them.
To him, it was a pretty damn useless technique and ability. But in William's eyes, this was a godsend ability.
It was just Thomas didn't know or experience anything like his master. "Come, let's go and see how this technique will fare against that cursed place." William could see how Thomas belittled this technique. So, he laughed as he started to walk towards the exit of this world.
Thomas watched William's back vanish through the ball hanging in midair in the heart of this place. After a long minute, he couldn't help but shake his head, muttering to himself, "it seems I got myself a crazy master."
And without delaying any further, he went outside to find William already standing on the open door of this room. And in front of him were two folks, Trevor and Mark.
"Sir, I'm terribly sorry about that. But just like I said, it was an unintended mistake of our security team. We made sure such mistakes won't happen again."
Mark was inwardly cursing his bad luck. He already knew about the intentions of the other members in the Big Seven, and he was the one who proposed this idea over his superiors.
He wanted to let William face trouble, feel the pressure, and so he'd come running to him, asking for more security and guards.
Like this, William would be in their pockets, and they'd enforce any condition they wanted, learn about anything they desired.
Who knew such a genius idea, one that got the total support from his higher ups and the leaders of the six members of the Big Seven, to get foiled thanks to William.
What William did come out of what anyone expected. William acted out of his age, showing a firm character and personality that never suited a kid like him.
He flipped the table around, putting the higher ups of the hotel in a very tough situation.
He saw directly through their scheme. And not only that, but he also made a single counterattack, enough to hit this scheme in its fatal weakness.
"I don't buy any of that," and as William showed a behaviour that never suited his age before, he also showed the same attitude now in front of Mark as well, "just words won't do things just. I want a payback for all the losses I suffered."
"Holy sh*t! You never suffered a thing in all this!!" Mark inwardly cursed, but he kept his thoughts only to himself. "Ahem, what can we do to please you?"
"What can you offer me?" William wouldn't make this newbie mistake and give out his price. To people, things of value differed greatly. And to him, he might just ask for a high-stake price, to end up realising later on it was just nothing to these folks.
He didn't want to just get something out of them, he wanted one of the two things he sat his eyes already upon.
