"I'll sign a contract with all four of you."
"Wow, I didn't know my new host also had a sense of humour. What a good deal."Wiz retorted, not taking Williams words seriously.
"I'm not joking," William replied calmly, already expecting a reaction like this.
anwhile, Myra was lost in her own world.
'Wtf is going on? Should I intervene?' Myra thought as her expression remained nonchalant, without a single trace of her emotional turmoil.
.
[Nah, it's getting entertaining] said Rosella in her mind, knowing that William wasn't in any real danger.
'But he's suggesting sothing absurd; what if the duke gets angry and hurt him?'.
[They can't; William is far too important for that.]
[Though I must say your son never fails to amaze , getting a Duke rank spirit to co running for a chance of contracting is insane, let alone four of them.]
'Tell about it; he's my son after all, Myra thought with a smug expression, despite knowing that William's talent far outclassed her.
Even her getting a marquis-ranked spirit like Rosella was enough for people to start calling her a prodigy, so by that logic, her son couldn't even be called a human.
He was a true monster in all senses of the word, and Myra had no doubt that in a few years he would even surpass her husband.
Unaware of Myra's thoughts, William was just staring at the four spirits in front of him, waiting for them to accept his deal.
"Hey kid, are you making fun of us right now?" Agni asked, annoyed at Williams antics.
"Nah, why would I do that?" William asked
"I don't know; you tell ," Agni exclaid.
"Ok, Kid, stop joking," Gione intervened before things could get heated between Agni and William.
"I'm not joking."
"Elaborate," Sera asked, annoyed by Williams antics.
"I'm a genius; I can contract with all four of you; I don't need to explain myself to you."
"Oh, alright, Mr. Genius, I'm sure you can get a Duke-ranked spirit anyti you want," Wiz scoffed.
"Sure, and I'm sure you can get a Child of Mana divine human with an affinity for spirits and a perfect elental affinity for your elent anywhere," William retorted.
"Divine human!!!!" All four of the spirits exclaid.
They knew the child in front of them was special, but him being a divine human changed everything.
It was practically the dream of every spirit to be able to accompany a divine human on his path to godhood.
If they could do that, then even if they had to share the sa host, it's not a bad deal.
"So do guys trust yet?" William asked with a smirk, already knowing their answer.
"Ugh," Agni said, making a weird sound, still refusing to forsake his pride as a Duke.
"Alright, kid, you have yourself a deal," Gione said without hesitation.
"Gione, where's your pride as a Duke? How can you just agree with the kids demand?" Agni shouted, annoyed by the kid and Gionne's admittance to his demands.
"Who cares about pride? I'm not about to let go of a host who's going to beco a god in the future; if your pride is more important than this opportunity, then suit yourself," Gionne retorted.
"Ahh, finally, at least one of you is smart. Co over here, new partner," William said with a smile that resembled that of a shady businessman.
'Why do I feel a bit uneasy?' Gionne thought internally.
But ignoring the feeling, he still went near William.
The other three spirits were just standing and observing Gionne to see what would happen.
"Alright, hold out your hand; let's get it done," said William as he held out his hand towards Gionne.
Gionne, despite his hesitation, also held out his hand, touching William.
Following which, a bright brown light engulfed the whole area before it was gone the next second.
Following the light, Gionne had vanished, and William had signed a contract with the Duke rank spirit of the Earth tribe.
"Chh, I missed my chance," Wiz said in annoyance.
The other two also sighed, blaming themselves for being too arrogant, and prepared to go back.
However, before they could leave, a voice called out.
"You seem to have forgotten what I said before. I'm going to sign a contract with all four of you now. Co over here."
"Huh?"
"You can't be serious?"
"I am. Now co over here and hold out your hands," William said, a bit annoyed by the spirits not taking him seriously.
Sadly, he couldn't let them go just because he found their personalities a bit annoying, as each elent only had a single Duke.
The spirits were a bit wierded out by Williams stubbornness, but for so reason they were also a bit curious.
The kid is special after all; maybe he's not lying.
With this thought in mind, Wiz decided to act before the other two and held out his hand.
"You're smart; I like you," William scoffed before holding out his hand and touching Wiz's hand.
The next mont, the whole ground was covered in a bright blue light
.
The next instant, it was gone as if it were never even there; strangely enough, even Wiz was gone.
This could only an that William had done the impossible and actually contracted two spirits, as he said.
"Wtf?"
"Wait, he wasn't joking?"
"How?"
Murmurs like this could be heard from Agni, Sera, and Myra.
"Now stop wasting my ti and co over here," William said, annoyance evident in his tone for not being taken seriously before.
After a few more minutes, they were finally done. William now had four Duke-ranked elent spirits at his disposal.
"Wow, how did you do that?" Myra asked, her disbelief still evident in her voice.
"I'm a genius," William retorted with a smirk.
Myra seriously considered beating up William, but in the end, she just decided to let it go.
After so ti, the carriage arrived to take them both back ho.
On the trip back ho, William had a smile on his face as he thought.
'Now all that's left is to get stronger'
