Seeing this made William realise what they appeared at was just a small part of this world. And for a reason he felt like the rest of the world appearing in front of him was going to hold more secrets and shocking things.
Yet he never thought about turning around and returning. He simply walked towards the new part, enjoying the sun bath that he missed for a long time already.
The sky was blue, but the sun was silver in colour. William didn't just see one sun out there, but also three different size spherical shadows that didn't send off any lights. He guessed they might be moons of this world, and he had never heard of a world like this before.
Seeing the sun and the three moons made him know this wasn't a pocket world as he guessed before. Pocket worlds were ones without such celestial objects. They were worlds entrapped inside objects, and they were illuminated using spirit power diffusing itself in the entire sky layer.
Realising this was a real world came to change everything to William. His initial plan was to look for the well hidden exit in this world as he considered this place as a pocket world.
But now he had to not look for an exit, but for something that could crack space and let them out. "If I was part of the dwellers in this world, then I'd consider this area filled with flying monsters as a deadly place. And that means I won't live or even risk coming near it…"
William changed his mindset and started to think in different ways about all this. He now was confident this world had monsters and masters, but none would dare to approach this area.
Reaching this far in his thoughts made him walk forward with caution again. He was also quite vigilant, quite ready to enter any battle at any moment. And soon enough, he did indeed meet a situation like this.
He came out from the deadly monster area and found an area that was filled with scattered trees. He tried to eat their fruits, but they were quite bitter and not edible.
Just as he was walking around, he arrived at an area of hills. They were pale green in colour, without any plants covering them. The colour came from some sort of green liquid that oozed out from between the rocks forming these hills.
"It's warm and sticky…" William examined the liquid, but couldn't recognise it. As he kept examining the liquid, he climbed one hill during which. And when he reached the top, he found a zigzag shaped narrow valley in the middle of these hills.
The ground was covered with a thin layer of this weird green liquid. And right now he could see lots of liquid splashing all over the place as a fierce battle was going on between two groups of people and a large number of monsters.
One group was wearing faint red uniforms, looking like coats that had a hoodie. The other group was wearing black clothes, and had their features covered up with some sort of a technique or something.
William didn't like anyone wearing black clothes, reminding him of the dark masters at once. The two groups weren't similar in numbers, with the ones with red coats and hoodies had less numbers than the black ones.
Both were fighting against each other, and against monsters at the same time. The monsters were all from the same breed, giant wolves with two thorns coming out from their two forelegs, curved to the side, acting like scythes or something.
They looked quite sharp and deadly. Their bodies were covered in silk like hair, acting like fur or something, in different grades of purple colour.
William didn't know these monsters, but he could tell from viewing the ongoing brutal battles between them and the humans that the monsters were using wind and metal spirit elements, alongside few techniques that suited these.
They were quite ferocious and daring, as if the humans trespassed over their turfs or something. As for the two groups of masters, William noticed something strange about them.
"They aren't using techniques, but simply materialising spirit power and reshaping it according to their elements…" William noticed this after watching for ten minutes.
The two sides were using hand movements first, gathering up spirit power in the form of balls, like balls of water or something. Then they change their hand moves, reshaping the spirit power balls into different shapes and releasing them over their foes.
The red coated masters were using water and earth elements in attacks, and the black masters were using darkness elements in their attacks.
Darkness was an overbearing spirit element, and couldn't be countered by water or earth. So it was expected how the black side was winning, severely wounding and even killing lots of the other side.
William now realised he came just at the last moments of this battle, and it seemed like the red coated masters had much bigger numbers than what they had right now. They showed lots of flaws in their formations and attacks, showing how inexperienced in fighting together they were.
If they were a small team from the start, then they should have more tacit understanding on how they fight. But that wasn't the case. And that told William most of the red coated masters fell on the hands of the black masters.
Yet he didn't plan to move out or help anytime soon. It was his first time watching masters fighting in such a weird way, materialising spirit power and using it in such a genuinely brilliant way.
He also didn't know what caused such a feud, and if the black masters were like the dark masters he knew, or if they were just normal masters fighting against others.
So, he stayed more in his spot, leant on his belly and spread out his spirit sense. He focused and started to listen to the words exchanged between the two sides.
