As for the one who caused such a storm, William never felt anything at all. If anything, he felt annoyed and not interested in any of this.
Fame to him was nothing but a way to gather more capable folks around, getting more formidable friends on his side, and getting access to materials and stuff that normal people wouldn't easily get.
So, he walked in the middle of all this circus without showing anything on his face but stern and plain look. As they walked like this for hours, they finally managed to arrive at the gate.
Starting from there, things didn't improve at all! As they passed from the gate and headed towards the main route down the hill, all the merchants and spirit masters around started to gather like bears surrounding honey.
Yet this time, the round of questions improved a lot.
"Are you the one who works for the legendary fox? I also want to join that force of his!"
"I heard the esteemed fox master promised to open stalls for business. I want to do business with everything and anything produced there!"
"Please let me join the force of the mighty fox master. I'm a gold grade spirit master and have lots of experience in the business of war!"
William heard such enthusiastic fruitful questions since he stepped out from the main gate of the fort. And unlike how he dealt with the crazy folks inside the fort, he stopped Ibra and his team from blocking these and stood there for hours answering questions.
After five more hours, he grew tired from doing this. He kept answering everything and anything thrown at his face. And yet the number of people gathered around and asking the same questions never receded. If anything, they had increased gradually over these hours.
"Trevor, where the hell are you?" As William saw this wasn't going to end, he decided to use the help of Trevor and more folks from the guild.
[I'm at one of the main streets, trying to recruit more to join. Why?]
"Just throw what you are doing right away. Go back now to my place, ask Remy to give you a couple hundred people. Make sure they do know everything about my guild and that place, distribute them to nine teams, and let them stay on the main paths over the hills."
[This… But that's outside the fort!]
"Just do as I say and you'll thank me later," William rolled his eyes, putting away the Bullet of Trevor after stressing over hurrying up.
"Let's go," As he dealt with this troublesome situation, William started picking up speed. During the past five hours, all the distance they crossed in that road wasn't more than half a kilometre! It was as if they never moved from their spot for the past five hours at all!
But once William stopped caring about the questions he received, they started to pick up pace fast. In less than one hour, they finally managed to get out from all this craziness.
"Damn! Remind me to not be famous or something!" one of the new guys said in an annoying and tired tone. While others laughed and chatted with each other about the hectic situation they just faced.
Aside from these, the six oldest members and vice leaders of William's team gathered around him, with a questioning look over their faces.
"Just say it, what do you want to know?" William didn't like their attitude. Comparing this with Thomas, who stood by his side silent and without showing anything at all on his face, made them look a bit annoying. William would pick up Thomas over them at any given time just for this!
"Well, where are we going?" Ro came fast when she heard William's words, "and what are we going to do?"
"Well… Before meeting you here, what did you see me do before?"
"Fighting… Fighting at the Spar Arena… Is that it?!" She was puzzled, and the look on her face made everyone laugh. "But the Spar Arena is in the fort, not outside!"
It took even William a second to get over this surprising news. He never expected the fort to have an arena of its own. But then he went over this and started laughing.
"We are going to play a little with dark spirit masters," William said amidst his laughs, "that's what you saw me before doing, right?"
"Damn! You are after trouble then!" she sighed, and that made others laugh again.
"Any specific direction then?" Ibra rubbed his hands, before taking out his glaive, "I want to stretch out my muscles."
"First let's arrange things," William paused before adding, "each will lead a team of seven. As before, one team will go and scout, while we'll march with Ibra and Sara being the main attack teams, Berry will be in the middle, John will handle the retreat route, Lang and Peter will be ready to support any team in trouble…"
"What about you?" William spoke for a few more minutes, took potions, materials for the different arrays plus the array scrolls, and gears. All the gears he got out were gold grade, all were enough to supplement everyone's needs in the team, enough to give his old and new members a scare on the spot.
However, William simply got over their shocking reaction, and motioned for them to arm up and distribute these, before continuing his talk about what were they going to do.
As he said and explained everything, and as everyone started to replace their old gears with the new awesome ones, took part of the potions, and started to study the different arrays William prepared before for the initial team who left with him the academy, Ibra asked.
"What else?" William scoffed, "I'm going to cover you up, dealing with all the mess you are going to cause."
"Mean leader," Ibra rolled his eyes, while others shared his viewpoint.
pαпdα`noνɐ1`сoМ "Let's stop fooling around," after giving his team ten minutes to get ready, William took out the map.
"What the hell did you do with my map?!" Sara got shocked when she saw all these red dots that covered the map.
