Chapter 515 The Fort's Bright Future
As William dealt with this task, he left after exchanging a few words with Panther. The latter spoke in great excitement about the bright future of the entire region after the heat of this war would settle down.
He was expecting that this area would turn to be the safe haven to many spirit masters living in the world. He even anticipated some grand migration move that was like a pilgrimage. And William couldn\'t see anything weird about this.
Even if this was a world filled with spirit masters, there were still more people who didn\'t have any spirit power at all. They always were seen as the inescapable black sacrifices of any conflict in this world. Such people never found a single place safe enough to live in without much worry.
And that would all change after this war. That was why Panther and other smart masters were embracing the crazy expansion of this war. The wider this war stretched, the more free and safe lands they\'d end to have.
That was also part of the reasons behind Panther\'s great mood after seeing William\'s map. It\'d serve his goal greatly.
"What do you think?" As the team followed William back to the fort, they kept discussing what Panther said.
"It\'s possible that will happen," William nodded in agreement.
"Do you think the fort will expand? Turn into a grand city or something? Like the kingdom\'s capital of some sort?!" Even Berry showed great interest in Panther\'s words.
Panther didn\'t just stop at his futuristic and highly optimistic vision about the migration of tons of people here. By his words, the fort was too small to accommodate all of these immigrants. So, there would be a grand building project around, turning this fort and the lands around into some sort of a huge and bustling city.
That wasn\'t all, he even expected many huge towns to rise up in the entire zone. "It\'s all up to the upcoming months to decide that. But that isn\'t the right issue for us to worry about. The main issue lies in the academy and the clans there."
"The academy?! What about it?"
"What about the clans?!"
"Why are you saying this?"
The ones who accompanied him all the way from the academy got worried when William said these words. And the latter could only sigh before explaining what they all missed.
"Don\'t you see? It\'s not just a massacre to the entire dark forces in the region, but also to the monsters. I bet there won\'t be a single monster seen for hundreds, even thousands of kilometres away from here. Tell me, how can any clan or the academy survive such a peaceful place?"
"..."
William\'s words landed and everyone got silenced from them. They never saw this situation from such an angle before. Even Panther failed to do so as well.
"Tsk! I bet an arm that you already have an idea about what\'s going to happen!" Ibra shook his head, waved his glaive in the air as if he was going to fight or something.
"It\'s not that hard to guess," William paused before adding, "all the clans and the academies getting affected by this weird situation will have to relocate."
"Relocate?!!!" it wasn\'t just the ones from the academy who exclaimed in such shock, but many others as well. After all, even if many masters here came from the fort, they still had origins and ties with other clans and academies as well.
"Will we move with them?" Sara asked, and William looked at their eyes, stopped moving and they followed suit.
It seemed he was going to say something important, and indeed it was.
"I know you all came from different places, but I have to tell you this… Once you are part of my team, accept my training sessions and other things from me, then forget about going after anyone or chasing for a clan or an academy…"
William paused, and he knew not all of the masters he gathered here would continue in his team. But he didn\'t care about any of that. He\'d not waste his time and effort, giving them such precious things in return to see any of them leaving at any notice from a clan or an academy.
"I won\'t accept anyone joining my top guild\'s training program and see him leave later on. So, take this time to deeply reflect about this issue. The moment you make up your mind about staying or leaving, just come and inform me about this."
William gave his team a period of one week to think about things before taking any decision. For him, he wasn\'t in a hurry to start training them anytime soon.
He knew that once he\'d return back to the guild, lots of things would be waiting for him to do. For example, he had to go through the tons of rings and loot he gathered from the base and dark spirit masters in this war.
To him, this wasn\'t a torture. Who\'d ever be tortured to check such endless wealth in front of him? But that was just one issue in a long list of his.
He had to regulate the guild and reform it, changing it into two general departments. One department would be dedicated to accepting spirit masters, training them, doing missions, and such. As for the other department, it\'d handle the supply of gears, potions, and other important supplies for any spirit master.
