"Alive or dead, that doesn't matter as long as I'm going to bring you back with me," that dude paused, gathering up his fierce golden power around.
At this moment, the ape shadow seemed to grow bigger, "I don't know how you did it, but this is going to stop. Nothing can stand against pure and irresistible might."
"Sorry, but I have to disagree with you," William knew what that dude said was right, but he wasn't going to accept getting defeated and stopped here.
"I wasn't asking for your opinion… Die and blame your bad luck and foolishness for crossing paths and enraging someone like me!"
And the next moment, William felt like the entire world around got sucked and pulled by a mighty black force. It all came from that ape, and it was acting as if it was the centre of gravity in the entire world.
"The Torturer! What a scary spirit you got here," William recognised the monster that dude used as his spirit, and his mind instantly recalled everything he knew about this dude right on the spot.
It was a fierce type of monster, one that could use gravity power and enhance it to suck and crush anything close by.
"Don't try to resist, don't even dream about running away, it's all futile! Embrace your death and just accept it!"
"What a trash talker you are!" William knew the best way to deal with this dude. He got the darkness element without doubt, as the force gushing out from it was all black colour. And that was the rule of thumb for any dark spirit master.
But he also got the gravity element, something that was much rarer than the darkness element itself. Unlike what that dude expected, William didn't try to resist, and even moved forward. He took a little jump in the air, letting his body fiercely get pulled towards that ape.
"What a dumbass dude you are!" The leader got surprised for one moment before he laughed. He mistook William's actions and thought he tried to use his flashing move yet ended up getting pulled faster and losing the ability to resist.
In the leader's eyes, the best thing William could do here was to firmly stabilise himself in the ground, not moving a muscle. If that leader was William, then he'd try to cling to the ground even with his nails, not do such a stupid thing as flashing in an attempt to escape.
Yet in the end, and no matter how long William resisted, he'd end up failing as his spirit power would get depleted and his strength would eventually fail him.
William also knew such a thing. And so, he never put the idea of resisting in his mind at all.
"I got to say thanks to you," And when William moved fast, like a true lightning bolt towards the leader, his voice came as his body seemed to grow blurry.
"This…" The leader was about to land his raised, thick arm, ending the life of William with a single and fierce slam with his deadly claws. But when he saw what William's body looked like and heard what the latter said, something ticked in his heart.
And sirens of alarm started to ring loudly in his mind.
"I love to fight enemies who stand in their place motionless like idiots," William's body vanished in thin air, while his voice echoed in the ears of the stupefied leader.
William wasn't using any kind of magic here. In fact he was honest in what he just said to the leader.
The gravitational force the leader used managed to save William lots of trouble. He simply got to save his spirit power and didn't have to use the lightning part of his technique.
William just used the enemy's attack to his advantage, turning tables over him simply by that. He let his body get pulled freely, feeling a much grander pulling force and insane speed that he'd never been able to experience until he'd be at the gold grade.
And when his body got pulled, he simply started waving his sword fast, making semi arcs in the air while stacking not five, but ten arcs of light over his sword.
As he used his light spirit element, the darkness that pulled him got negated at once. Even if the two got a huge gulf of power in between, William knew in front of his light element, that dude's darkness element would get crushed.
Spirit elements didn't follow the common logic behind spirit power known in this world. And that made William see the silver lining faint hope in his clash with this scary dude here.
It was just like when he fought Ibra before, just like when he fought against Berry's father. The two kept standing motionless, just like this leader, giving William the chance to prepare his next attacks and link his moves without any interruption.
It was all thanks to arrogance, thanks to taking William lightly when they shouldn't. And right now, that leader was about to pay the real price for such a mistake.
When the leader felt something was amiss, it was already too late for him to do anything. William's body vanished, not thanks to magic, but thanks to the activation of his technique.
His Holy Sword technique would allow him to travel a hundred metre distance in a flash. And even if he didn't use his lightning element, he got its effect already activated by the help of this leader's gravity element.
Gravity was indeed quite scary, but in front of explosive and burst out powerful techniques like William's, something unstoppable like gravity would take little time to exert full control over its target.
Even if William was still feeling the pressure coming from gravity, his outburst speed that exploded once he activated his technique helped in giving him little time of freedom.
And all William needed was this little time to get things rolling to his favour, just like a real snowball!
