William just needed to melt down the ores, cleanse them using his hammers, before starting to put the final touches over the final form of these explosive balls.
"What are you doing?"
In the middle of all this, and as he was hammering one melted ore lump to cleanse it using all his might, he got suddenly startled by a soft voice, one that made his eyes open widely and he stopped in his actions.
"You…" he turned to see a young lady, one that had a beauty like never seen before. Her face was so white that it was shining like an angel, with long thick white hair that extended over her shoulders.
She was wearing a black dress, with lots of sparkling gems that were fixed around her body. She was about the same height as him, with a deep black pair of eyes that made him think he could drown in them.
"Oh, you must have forgotten about me," she waved her hair off her shoulders before adding, "I'm the monster you met inside that place, before all this happened…"
She waved her hands and motioned towards the entire world. "You are her?! How did you get here?!!" he asked, while doubting his senses. He was busy forging his grenades, but he never relaxed his spirit sense even once.
She appeared out of the blue, without seeing her coming. Even if she was the fastest being in the entire world, he still could see something flashing towards him like a ray of light or something.
"Don't worry, even if I'm human, I still have my memories and won't hurt you. Besides, don't try to judge me with your knowledge. Even if I'm still with low spirit power, almost close to being a bronze grade master by human's standards, I have tons of knowledge about lots of things."
"I see," he knew she must have used something to boost her speed or even teleport here, "you are close to a bronze grade? That's good."
"I know, right?" she didn't get his point, but the next instant, she froze in her place.
"You… How can you change into human form?!!!" she was shocked, scared, moved many steps to the back, as if she was about to get devoured or something.
"I'm human to begin with," William shrugged, changing back to his monster form before adding, "I came into your place, and you mistook me for being a monster."
"This… No way! This must be an illusion, right? My place… No human can survive the outer layer of it! How could you get inside? Into me?!!"
The more she spoke, the more William's scalp went numb. "I was here looking for a way out of this world…" William explained in great detail about everything that happened back then. He didn't lie to her, not even hide the fact that he came from another world, not the fact that he once was living in the outer world.
He just twisted facts and hid the thing about his death back then, and let it be like the work of a scary monster.
"You… You tricked me?!!!" she looked at him as if he was her boyfriend who cheated on her or something, "I… I trusted you! Listened to your advice back then… And for what? To bring me out and… And… Kill me?!!!"
"No, you got it all wrong…" William knew his biggest chip was in mentioning his archenemy. That was why he mentioned his identity as one of the outer world's citizens, not hiding this off her.
"... That means the legend you spoke about is true," William's face was wielding his serious look, "I already went to repair the errors and faults in this world and succeeded in doing it."
"You… You are the one who caused all this?!!!"
"That's true," he slowly nodded, "after I heard about that myth from you, from the moment you told me about the shape and nature of that hideous old monster, and I knew that bastard managed to find a way back here, in our time. So I went to repair what I can in this world, hoping that you'll join my side in stopping him."
ραndαsΝοvεl.cοm "This…" he kept shocking her with one fact after another. He kept talking, speaking about his battle against that fox. He wasn't lying, as the two monsters were weirdly the same.
He even spoke about the clones that monster spread all over the tiny worlds, spoke about its appearance and abilities. He kept speaking and stressing about this point, to make her forget about the lie he told her.
He wasn't feeling any guilt or remorse. He didn't say it directly that he was a monster and not a human. She took it wrong from the start, and he just played along without correcting anything to her.
As he hoped for, she started to forget about her rage for what he did, and focused over the intel he kept showering her with.
"That monster… It can't be true, right?!!!"
"Just look around you, why all of sudden this place turned like this? Not only this place, but such changes also happened all over the world as well."
"..."
"I want your help," he finally said. "I know I acted a bit selfish back then, but the moment you spoke about that monster and the myth about it, I couldn't help but want your help to fight and stop this brutal and bloody monster with me."
"But… I already lost almost all of my powers…"
"That's not a problem," William realised she started to embrace the idea of helping him, "I promise to support you until you regain your former power. On top of that, I promise to take you with me, back to the outer world."
"For real?!!!" she blinked, and he slowly nodded. Like a naive little girl, she accepted everything he said. After all, he wasn't lying about anything he mentioned to her.
"I want your help against this monster," he sincerely said, "so I'm going to use everything in my power to support you."
