Chapter 740 The Life Story Of The Nightmare Monster
The wheel got clarified and condensed, showing its general shape. It wasn't just one wheel as he thought before but looked like different discs lying on top of each other.
He could only see the upper disc clearly, which was formed of ten circles, connected together with short and thick rods. The central disc was around ten metres in radius, and it got no writing there.
As for the writings, they were now much clearer to him. And yet he still couldn't get what they meant. He felt like the language used here was something entirely new to him, something unique to this special world.
His wheel kept rotating slowly like others, but now he could tell the discs weren't rotating at the same speed. He also noticed the discs weren't all in the same size, with few much larger than others.
Aside from his wheel, the other one that got attached to him didn't show the same changes as his. The only thing that he could see was the clear drawing at the central disc of something, a drawing of that monster.
[We are going to start showing the enemy's fate and destiny. If you can recall any encounters with him, then it'll greatly help]
The voice of Arthur rang again in his head, making William anticipate lots of secrets regarding his enemy. He knew few things about that monster, even its mysterious origin as part of the nine tailed fox spirit.
But William didn't know much actually. Aside from the little information he accidentally gained, he got literally nothing.
This was a great chance to pry over his enemy's abilities, including his arch enemy, the damn fox.
He met the Nightmare monster two times, and so he started to recall the events that happened back then. His interaction with that monster were brief, and nothing much could be recalled except for a hectic run and a useless confrontation with its clone.
Yet when he recalled these events in great detail, the other wheel started to suddenly spin faster. As it was connected to his, his wheel started to pick up speed as well.
At first, it felt like his wheel was struggling or something, resisting the speed of spinning. Yet slowly it started to match the other wheel's rotating speed, and that created some sort of fog that started to envelop the two wheels together.
It looked like a dome that was formed out of golden dust or something, appearing as if sun rays shone on this part of the world. It started slowly, and soon it covered up everything.
Slowly the dust particles started to change, gather up and form different shapes. In front of William's eyes, it appeared as if he was standing in front of a theatre, and a play was going on without a single word being said.
His seat was situated over his wheel, and the stage showing the scenes was over the monster's wheel. It was an amazing experience, one that he never met before.
The first scene that appeared in front of him was something he instantly recognised. The golden dust gathered up and took the shape of something with nine tails, a miniature version of the fox enemy he fought once before.
Yet this fox got some sort of a halo around his head, like a crown or something, with nine shining stars there.
The scene showed a fox moving its tails in a fixed rhythm, and then a speck of dust came out from it. This speck moved away, floating in the air, and the nine tailed fox dust particles crashed on its own, spreading all over the place in an irregular pattern, without taking any form.
The only thing that kept its shape was the speck of golden dust. And gradually it started to grow in size, before taking shape of the Nightmare monster.
It was a miniature form of it. Then William started to see scenes about it, scattered to form a broken, long story of this monster. William saw it growing stronger, fighting other monsters, even the scenes that described his meeting with it.
There was no sound at all, and that added a gloomy touch over the entire play. After that monster met him, it met a spirit master and started to suffer under him. William knew who this master was, and he knew a big secret about this monster would reveal itself now.
William knew this monster turned into a Mutant but didn't know how. He watched closely while the monster floated in the golden space, with a long trail of golden dust that seemed like its blood.
As William expected, something new did happen. All the things that showed up so far didn't interest him. He knew the origin of this monster and wasn't concerned by its life story before meeting him.
A speck of dust appeared when the monster was at its low moments. It looked weirdly similar to the one that came out from the nine tailed fox before, and it stopped just in front of the monster.
The speck of dust changed and took the form of a human. William couldn't see any detail over this human's face, and yet he felt it was kind of familiar.
As the human appeared in front of the monster, he cut his own wrists and then laid down on the ground, profusely bleeding. William watched how this monster acquired the body of the dying human master and changed to be a Mutant.
This was something totally unexpected. William knew for the Mutant formation process to succeed, it required different conditions, lots of limitations actually. One of these was that the master should be dying. And another condition for the willingness of the master to accept the merge with the monster.
Many might consider this crazy, but William knew at the last moments before death, anyone could do anything to survive. Besides he could expect the monsters to use tempting words to let any master accept their offer to save their lives and let them live on.
