The moment the clone got destroyed, the moment the entire structure started to fall. Yet the scariest thing was that William himself standing in the heart of all this didn't feel a single tremble or change at all.
He was in a world that was totally isolated from anything happening outside. And that was the scheme of the Nightmare monster, hoping for William to waste his time inside, and delay his exit.
Yet William didn't fall for such a trap and started to break through the shackles of this place using everything he got.
In less than five minutes, the formation was ready, and he activated it. "I know this may be considered your win, but it's not the case if I can turn things around," he muttered to himself, while thinking about the crazy idea of merging this spirit with his.
He didn't just have this dangerous spirit, but two of such calibre. He held high hopes that by merging the two together with his fox spirit, new things would pop up, something that his enemy never expected.
As the world around him shattered, William was preparing himself for a fierce battle for his life. Yet the battle he expected became more impossible the moment he came out.
He knew the world around would be a total wreck. Without the need to check, he knew the ground and sky were falling apart, and he had to find a place for himself and survive all this before finding a way out.
Yet least to his expectations that the firm ground around the academy, the one he planned to stand erect and take shelter at during the first few hours after appearing, was already gone!
The moment he appeared out from the academy, he didn't find the academy nor the ground around. All he found was pure emptiness, with lots of rocks falling apart and falling down towards the bottom.
The grand academy and the vast area of ground around were gone, and all that remained now was just a narrow pillar, one that wasn't enough to cover up half a kilometre radius.
"Damn! What that bastard did exactly!" William found himself in midair, while tons of rocks were falling, and the world was roaring all around. He was in the middle of all this, without any firm ground to land at or hold.
William was already in his fox spirit form. And when he appeared, the world around didn't show him any mercy. His body started to fall fast, and soon enough he vanished in the middle of tons of falling rocks.
William didn't hesitate to work his tails around, grabbing a few rocks, pulling them over or throwing them afar. He tried to adjust his body, find any place that he could land at firmly and adjust his position for now.
Yet all his attempts failed to stabilise his body or decrease his fall. The most it did was to clear most of the rocks around, making him clear and visible to others around.
"Hang on, we are coming!" Zin shouted first, before moving his monster towards William. The latter turned to see Zin and ten others, riding on the backs of grand monsters, alongside many masters as well.
"They did it!" William wanted to laugh, but he knew his situation didn't look any good at all. He was still falling hard towards a fate that he knew he'd not be able to escape from.
Yet in the next few minutes, he got saved. These flying monsters were indeed fast, and they managed to reach and rescue him hundreds of metres before hitting the lava ground.
William returned to his human form so he could stand easily on the back of Zin's monster. "You lad, you are a pro in giving old people like me a scare, hahahahaha!"
Despite saying these words while poking William's chest with his stick, the latter knew Zin was extremely happy.
"Is it over?" William finally got the time to check the world around. He saw the ground all over this zone was gone, replaced by a very deep abyss, shimmering in dangerous red and orange lights thanks to the running streams of lava down there.
Thick bellows of white smoke rose up from time to time. And William was sure anyone getting caught in this would end up with a great suffering and a horrible fate.
Without the need to see the future, William knew this zone would become a forbidden area for masters and monsters alike. Only scary monsters would find this place pleasant and might take it as their homes. Only if they were crazy enough to do so.
As for the sky, the main threatening variable William was worried about for a long time, he saw it crystal clear by now. Sun was about to rise, and normal clouds appeared there, without a trace of the terrifying black clouds from before.
"He did it!" William mumbled to himself the moment he spotted no sign of the black clouds. He didn't know Leo or the force he represented, so he didn't fully trust him in doing what he promised. But he was now sure that a mysterious side of the world, one that was hidden from him and most of the formidable masters before, was going to be revealed to him soon enough.
He felt quite lucky that he struck such a deal with Leo before. Right now, he was the only one with clue about how to find the Nightmare monster, even the only one who could recognise it as he already met that clone.
"Everything is great! We managed to save everyone using these monsters. By the way, we want to keep them, and plan to form an aerial force for the city."
Zin was laughing amidst his talk, seemingly quite excited about the future possibilities of such a grand project.
"That's indeed helpful, but you do know you can't tame them, right?" William paused, thinking about something, "I can also help in something related to these monsters."
