I was invincible in the dungeon with a funny character skill

231. I Recommend a Spirit King to You

“Don’t you want to look at the others?”

“No need. I don’t like comparing. As long as I like one, there’s no need to look at the rest.”

Grewaris tried to inquire, but Wang Xiaoming directly refused.

“Alright, since you’ve already chosen, then the rest can be dismissed.”

Wang Xiaoming chose Lynslet, so the rest is the contract. As for the others, there’s no need to continue looking.

“Alright, alright, it’s over. The Dragon Spirit Lord has chosen a contractor. Everyone can go back.”

Grewaris, who walked out of the greenhouse, clapped her hands and called for the other Spirit Princesses who were still waiting outside to disperse.

These Spirit Princesses, who had been waiting outside for a long time, left one by one. Inside the greenhouse, Ellis sighed and also left. As a knight, although she pursued power, she wasn't that eager.

After Ellis left, only Lynslet and Claire were left in the entire greenhouse.

Lynslet was very happy. So happy that she couldn’t help but look at Claire. The two of them were good friends when they were young, but because of their personalities, they developed into superficial rivals, the type who would argue as soon as they met, but actually cared about each other more than anyone else.

“Claire, did you see that? Only the excellent Lynslet can be valued by the highest-ranking spirit!”

“You! You actually stole my contracted spirit!”

Claire was immediately enraged by Lynslet's mockery, and the fire cat on her shoulder also exploded with anger.

“What do you mean by stealing? Claire, it’s my excellence that has gained the recognition of a high-ranking spirit. If you think I stole it, then you can also perform better than me and gain the recognition of a high-ranking spirit.”

“Damn it, I will definitely find an even stronger spirit!”

Claire gritted her teeth and said fiercely to Lynslet.

“If you want to contract a powerful spirit, I can give you a suggestion.”

“Ah, Dragon Spirit Lord, you’re here!”

Wang Xiaoming had been in the greenhouse all along, but because he didn’t speak, his presence was weakened, so much so that these two girls directly assumed that there was no one in the greenhouse and started arguing.

“Wait, what did you just say about giving me a suggestion? Do you know where there are high-ranking spirits?”

Claire didn’t care about Wang Xiaoming’s high-ranking spirit status and directly shouted at him anxiously.

“That’s right, I do know where there are high-ranking spirits, and even the highest-ranking one. According to the hierarchy, his rank should be the same as mine, but his combat power is a little weaker than mine.”

“There’s actually such a powerful high-ranking spirit outside?”

Lynslet was very surprised. She had witnessed Wang Xiaoming’s power before when he transformed into a dragon. That kind of pressure made her even afraid to move. Now that she has become Wang Xiaoming’s designated contractor, she is very happy, but she didn’t expect that there was another spirit as powerful as Wang Xiaoming outside.

However, as Claire’s close friend, she was happy about this. Claire was originally a high-ranking noble, but because of a family accident, she was stripped of her noble status and even had to change her name to Claire Rouge to conceal herself.

If she could become powerful again, then as her friend, Lynslet would naturally be very happy to see it.

“That’s right, remember the guy who came with you?”

“Are you talking about Kazehaya Kamito?”

“That’s him.”

Wang Xiaoming grinned and smiled. He couldn’t help but have a mischievous thought.

“You know, I’ve lived for a very, very long time, so long that I don’t even know how long I’ve lived. But I’ve spent most of my time in slumber. But before I fell asleep, I had a fight with those Spirit Kings in the Spirit Realm. At that time, the six of them attacked together, wanting to defeat me and make me respect them as kings. According to you humans, that should be the Spirit War, a war to decide who is the King of Spirits.”

“The Spirit King’s War!”

Both girls were shocked, and even Grewaris, who was eavesdropping outside the door, was shocked. None of them knew Wang Xiaoming’s origin. Before, it was only because Wang Xiaoming was the highest-ranking Dragon Spirit and his power was incomparably strong, but they didn’t expect that Wang Xiaoming had actually fought with the Spirit Kings.

Grewaris had doubted Wang Xiaoming’s words before, but there was no evidence, only suspicion. Now she was even more suspicious.

“That’s right, those six guys wanted to become the kings of the Spirit Realm and rule the Spirit Realm, so they gathered together, wanting all the spirits to submit to them. I also had a territory in the Spirit Realm at that time, so they came to me, wanting me to submit. So, I beat them all up and told them to get lost. I’m not interested in their childish game of being king.”

“You beat up the Spirit Kings!?”

Claire and Lynslet both stared wide-eyed.

Grewaris outside was equally surprised. Sure enough, her previous feeling was not wrong. That power, so powerful that it was on the same level as the Spirit King she had seen before, was not fake!

“That’s right. At that time, my friend Fenrir and I controlled a territory together. The two of us beat those six back.”

“Is Fenrir that powerful!”

Lynslet couldn’t help but look at the Ice Crystal Giant Wolf beside her. She was greeted with Fenrir’s human-like smile with its big mouth open and tongue sticking out. No matter how you look at it, this wolf looked like a husky. It actually fought the Spirit Kings?

“Those six guys are Fire, Water, Earth, Wind, Holy, and Dark respectively.”

“Wait, there are only five Spirit Kings, right? What’s the deal with that Dark one? I’ve never heard of it.”

“Don’t worry, listen to me slowly.”

Wang Xiaoming continued to make up the story.

“After those six were beaten up by me, they ran away. But because Fenrir and I didn’t care about anything, we stayed in our own territory, which led to them taking down the entire Spirit Realm except for our territory. But because they were afraid of our power, they didn’t dare to come and find us.”

“But the later things were very interesting. The six of them seemed to have internal strife because of the unfair distribution of benefits. Fire, Water, Earth, Wind, and Holy united to suppress Dark. So, Dark led his subordinates and fought with them. But one naturally can’t beat five. He’s not as strong as me.”

Claire, Lynslet, and Grewaris were all shocked. Was the history of the Spirit Realm like this? This was completely different from the history of the Spirit Realm they knew!

“So, after that Dark one failed, he transferred all his power out, transferred it to the power of a human male, preparing to hide and gather strength, and then rush back to the Spirit Realm and overthrow those five guys.”

“According to the information I learned after coming to the human world, the guy you humans called the Demon King a few hundred years ago should be the reincarnation of that Dark one.”

“It’s just that he was killed by the pawns arranged by those five.”

Wang Xiaoming’s face was full of mischievous smiles.

“In Kazehaya Kamito, I sensed the power of that Dark one who was beaten up by me back then.”

“So, that Kazehaya Kamito is the reincarnation of the Dark Spirit King who was defeated by the Five Great Spirit Kings!”

Claire was completely stunned, her mouth wide open and unable to speak.

“The Dark Spirit King!”

Grewaris couldn’t help but narrow her eyes. Although she knew that her disciple was not simple, she didn’t expect her to be so simple, with such a deep background.

“That’s right, but he himself probably doesn’t know, after all, that Dark one didn’t bring his brain when he reincarnated… oh no, he didn’t bring his memories, so he doesn’t know that he is the Dark Spirit King now.”

"So, she thinks he's just an ordinary person right now?" Linselette asked curiously.

"That's right, he thinks he's just an ordinary person, but not entirely ordinary. He can contract with spirits, so he's also the only male spirit user in this world."

Wang Xiaoming smiled and patted Claire's shoulder.

"So, why don't you hurry up and seize the opportunity to contract with him? Although he's not as good as me, he's still a Spirit King after all."

232. Wang Xiaoming's All-Purpose Wishing Machine

Spoiling is a very interesting thing, especially when you're sitting pretty, spoiling becomes even more fun.

Wang Xiaoming doesn't know what the final ending of this world is, but that doesn't stop him from making up a story himself. According to the settings he knows, the Dark Spirit King was indeed overthrown by the Five Great Spirit Kings. As for why they fought, it's none of my business!

Anyway, the blame I put on them, they won't put it back on me. And the Demon King is indeed related to the Dark Spirit King, and Kazehaya Kamito is indeed the new generation of Demon King, so saying Kazehaya Kamito is the Dark Spirit King is not a problem.

Even if he's not the Dark Spirit King, he's definitely related to the Dark Spirit King, so saying he's the Dark Spirit King is perfectly fine.

His harem later all turned into Dark Spirit Princesses. If this isn't the Dark Spirit King, then what is?

"Come on, take advantage of the fact that he hasn't regained his memory and awakened his power, contract with him, tie him down. When he awakens his memory, your feelings will also be there, and he won't abandon you then. By then, you'll be the contractor of the Dark Spirit King, and you can have the Spirit King fight for you!"

Wang Xiaoming really puts in the effort when he's trying to fool people. Anyway, Claire is also part of Kazehaya Kamito's harem, he's just bringing things forward a bit and spoiling things a little.

"Wait, didn't you say that the Dark Spirit King was opposed by the Five Great Spirit Kings? If Claire contracts with that Kazehaya Kamito, wouldn't she be targeted by the Five Great Spirit Kings?"

As Claire's good friend, Linselette's first thought was for Claire's safety. Contracting with a Spirit King isn't a problem, but the problem is that this Spirit King is the mortal enemy of the current Five Great Spirit Kings. If the Five Great Spirit Kings find out, it'll be over.

Claire's originally excited face instantly fell. Her family was removed from the nobility because they offended the Fire Spirit King. The reason she wants to obtain powerful strength is to win in the Spirit Sword Dance Festival and then beg for the Spirit King's forgiveness. But now you're saying that contracting with this Dark Spirit is equivalent to offending the Spirit Kings, so how can she pray for forgiveness?

Wang Xiaoming naturally had to dispel her doubts.

"Don't worry, those five Spirit Kings can't act now, otherwise they would have arranged for a saintess to eliminate this Demon King reincarnation long ago."

"Can't act? What do you mean?"

Linselette couldn't help but ask.

"When I left the Spirit Realm, I discovered that a dark force was hidden deep within the Spirit Realm. That dark force doesn't belong to the Spirit Realm and is full of chaos and erosion. Guess where that dark force is?"

"Where is it?"

"Naturally, it's with those Spirit Kings."

Wang Xiaoming wore a mocking smile on his face.

"Those guys, when I beat them up back then, I could feel that they were extremely eager for power and strength. That dark force is very powerful. According to those five guys' brains, they must want to obtain that power and then strengthen themselves."

"But that force has the characteristics of chaos and erosion. Those five guys can't even beat me, let alone control that force. Now they're probably already devoured by that force. They should have completely lost their minds and are in a state of madness."

"A bunch of trash, daring to call themselves Spirit Kings. It's just that I'm not interested in this broken Spirit King position, otherwise, would they even be worthy?"

Wang Xiaoming's words mocking the Spirit Kings didn't cause the two girls to refute, because they were in shock over the fact that the Spirit Kings were being devoured.

"Impossible, how could the Spirit Kings be devoured?"

Claire shook her head repeatedly. She was still hoping that the Spirit King would order the release of her parents. If they were devoured, what would happen to her parents?

"This kind of thing is actually very simple. You just need to see if the Spirit Kings have gone crazy and issued some very brain-dead orders in recent years to judge whether there's a problem with the Spirit Kings' brains."

Wang Xiaoming's additional evaluation completely stunned Claire and Linselette.

They were the most aware of the Spirit Kings' behavior. Claire's family was affected by the Fire Spirit King's anger, which even caused the entire empire to be unable to light fires for a year.

And Linselette was also the same. Her sister was frozen by the Water Spirit King, suddenly and without any warning. She had always thought that her sister had angered the Water Spirit King.

But now it seems that the Spirit Kings themselves have gone mad.

Wang Xiaoming's well-reasoned and spoiler-filled coaxing successfully fooled Linselette and Claire, as well as Greaves, who was eavesdropping outside the door.

The three of them had very serious expressions.

"So, you don't have to worry at all about contracting with that Dark Spirit King being targeted by the remaining Spirit Kings. Those five guys aren't a threat."

Wang Xiaoming didn't care at all.

"As long as you contract with that Dark Spirit King, with the remaining five unable to appear now, besides the invincible me, basically no other spirit user is your opponent."

"Okay... okay."

Claire looked at Wang Xiaoming's nonchalant appearance and could only nod helplessly. She had received too many shocks today, and she felt that she needed to calm down.

"I have something to do, I'll leave first."

Claire gave a reason that couldn't be more fake and then left the shed with her head down.

"Claire."

Watching Claire leave, Linselette was very worried, but she knew that Claire needed to be alone now.

"You're very worried about her. Is she your good friend?"

"Yes, she is my best friend."

Facing Wang Xiaoming, Linselette didn't need to hide her relationship with Claire like she did when facing other people.

"You two seem to have some troubles."

Wang Xiaoming looked like a caring older brother.

"Would you like to talk to me about it? Maybe I can help you."

"This... is that okay?"

"I don't know about her affairs, but I definitely have no problem with your affairs. You are the contractor I chose. According to the classification on your human side, I am a Spirit King level, and you are my Spirit Princess. Solving some small troubles for my Spirit Princess is not a problem at all. Even if those Spirit Kings come, they wouldn't dare to say no."

Wang Xiaoming's words made Linselette's eyes light up. That's right, this high-ranking spirit in front of her knows so much about the Spirit Realm, and according to what he said, he even beat up the Spirit Kings and could become a Spirit King. If it was him, he would definitely be able to help her, to help Claire.

So, Linselette told Wang Xiaoming about her and Claire's affairs.

Regarding her desire to save her sister, and Claire's desire to rescue her parents and restore the family's glory.

"Is that all?"

"Yes, that's all."
