Chapter 15 I Have 180,000 Masters of Witchcraft! Do You Dare to Face Me?

Since then, William's world revolved around Fiona. The Watson family kissed their glory days goodbye.

Fiona straight-up fainted.

The Watson family folks let out a collective sigh of relief. Jasmine even cracked up. They finally booted William out.

But William didn't go far. He was chilling in the garden behind the Watson Mansion. He still needed that Magical Ice Energy below to keep the Fire Venom in check.

Soon enough, word got to Kyle that the Watson family had kicked William out.

Kyle smirked, "See, it worked. The Watson family is already shaking in their boots. In two days, I'll have the whole Starlight City trembling."

That night, Starlight City was buzzing.

Thousands of people swarmed Loyalty Manor.

Kyle had anticipated maybe ten thousand showing up. To his astonishment, over ten thousand poured in overnight, with more streaming in.

His loyal crew had built up quite a following over the years, and Kyle was stoked.

As Kyle's crew made a splash, the formidable allies summoned by William with the Dark Lord Token slipped into Starlight City like ghosts, seamlessly melding into every corner and crevice.

Even the four great wizards had no clue where they went. These folks were let in by them, yet they vanished like ghosts.

Fiona wasn't about to let William walk into a death trap. She tried everything to protect him.

The Watson family knew Fiona would help William, so they locked her up in the Watson Mansion and took away her phone and other gadgets.

Fiona couldn't even reach Xavier and could only cry and pray.

Two days later, William opened his eyes. "It's almost time!"

William, stepping out from behind the Watson Mansion, bumped right into Jasmine and her crew.

Jasmine was stunned. "William, you shameless jerk! You were hiding in my garden!"

She thought William had some pride and had already left. But nope, he was lurking near her house. He hadn't given up yet. He still wanted to crash at her place.

Especially after ticking off Kyle, he needed Fiona to survive.

"William's just a stray dog running wild!"

"Yeah..."

Frank and the others chimed in, mocking him.

Jasmine snapped, "William, don't make me despise you! Don't drag the Watson family down with you! Grow a spine!"

Frank and the others shouted, "It's almost time! Don't let Kyle think we're involved with you!"

"William, get lost!"

Jasmine bit her lip. "You knew this would happen, so why provoke Kyle? Do you think you're invincible? If you're a man, own up to your actions. Don't drag others down!"

William nodded. "I'll handle my own mess. Tell Fiona not to worry." With that, he left.

Jasmine and the others rushed back to the Watson Mansion.

After all, Starlight City was a war zone tonight.

Loyalty Manor was now jam-packed.

In the hall, Kyle sat in the middle, buzzing with excitement.

He didn't expect that in just two days, the Obsidian Brotherhood had gathered over seventeen thousand people.

And they were all tough as nails, not some average street thugs. The kicker was that Thomas was backing them.

Kyle roared, "Tonight, I'll show Starlight City how terrifying I am! Messing with me has serious consequences! My Obsidian Brotherhood is still here! I am still here!"

"Kill him!" The roar of over ten thousand voices shook Loyalty Manor.

Kyle asked, "Where's William? He didn't chicken out, did he?"

Thomas replied, "Nope, our guys are on him. William's been hiding behind the Watson Mansion for two days, and now he's on his way here."

Kyle looked surprised. "He actually dares to come? I thought I'd have to send someone to drag him back."

Thomas nodded. "Yeah, the Davis family's got some guts."

Kyle grinned, "I can't wait to take him down."

By now, Eugene and all the big shots in Starlight City knew how many people Kyle had rallied. They were all freaking out. "William, why'd you have to mess with Kyle?"

"You almost dragged the Watson family into this mess."

That night, everyone knew the storm was coming. So, every household locked up early, shut their doors and windows tight, and stayed put.

Starlight City, usually buzzing, turned into a ghost town.

At that moment, William was striding down the street towards Loyalty Manor.

Bradley stepped out from the shadows. He didn't say a word, just fell in step with William.

Then, figures started popping out from the streets, alleys, and buildings. Each one had a powerful vibe.

They all fell in line behind William.

Wherever William went, more figures appeared.

They waited silently, hidden in every alley, every corner, every building.

As soon as William showed up, they all emerged and followed.

It was like the whole city was crawling with people.

More and more folks joined William's march.

The line of people stretched so far one couldn't see the end.

And it wasn't just here; the same thing was happening all over Starlight City.

Out of nowhere, ghostly figures appeared, all heading in the same direction.

No one knew where they came from or when they had hidden in every corner of Starlight City.

The citizens watched the long line on the streets, scared stiff.

Even the four great wizards in Starlight City were spooked. How could there be so many people?

They didn't remember letting in this many. And after these people arrived in Starlight City, they all vanished.

Even the wizards couldn't track them down. How come they all showed up now? It felt like Starlight City was packed to the brim.

"I'd say the eastern area's got forty to fifty thousand people."

"The western area's about the same."

"The southern and northern areas too."

"The craziest part is, each one seems to be a Master of Witchcraft!"

The four great wizards broke out in a cold sweat.

All of them were Masters of Witchcraft! Starlight City, no, Eldoria was about to face some serious chaos.

More and more people joined William's march. They surged from all directions like a flood.

So many people gathered together, it was like a swarm of locusts covering the sky.

They were all dressed in black, blending with the night. And at the very front, William in his white clothes stood out like a beacon.

Soon, William led the crowd across Starlight City to the open area in the suburbs.

The crowd finally spread out a bit.

The line was so long and wide, it was beyond sight, taking up an insane amount of space.

They moved towards Loyalty Manor with a terrifying momentum.

Bradley finally spoke, "Mr. Davis, the Dark Lord Token has summoned a total of 180,000 Masters of Witchcraft from all over the world. They're all here."

The Dark Lord Token had called in all the Masters of Witchcraft from the various factions under Paradise Island worldwide.

Now, the 180,000 people following William were all Masters of Witchcraft. This was the power that made Eldoria tremble.

A single Master of Witchcraft could cause chaos in a region.

But William had a full 180,000 Masters of Witchcraft.

This was William's power; who in the world would dare to stop him?

William said nothing and kept moving forward.

The 180,000 Masters of Witchcraft followed William in perfect unison. The ground shook and the mountains trembled.

"What's going on?"

"What's happening?"

The entire Loyalty Manor began to shake violently, descending into chaos.

A voice like a thunderclap boomed over Loyalty Manor. "I have 180,000 Masters of Witchcraft. Kyle, do you dare to face me?"
