Chapter 317 It was better not to offend such a person

Amy, squatting on the ground, looked up and said, "Mr. Johnson went to school."

As expected, her master really didn\'t plan to intervene in her affairs.

Well, that\'s fine. She was determined to prove herself to her master, to show him with her strength that she was not useless.

The fact that the Soulmancers from Texas were targeting Alice didn\'t seem to affect William at all. When Alice didn\'t come out in the morning, he had breakfast by himself and went to school.

As he was preparing to go to the school cafeteria with Wyatt and others to enjoy the beautiful college life, Edward was unexpectedly waiting for him right outside the classroom.

Coincidentally, Edward\'s student, Alex, was in that class. As soon as Alex walked out of the classroom and saw Edward, he quickly approached him with respect in his tone, "Instructor, were you looking for me?"

Edward\'s eyes were bloodshot, and he didn\'t seem to be in good spirits. Shaking his head and still staring at the classroom door, he said weakly, "I\'m waiting for someone."

He had been waiting for William for several days but always missed him. Today, knowing that William was attending class, he rushed to wait outside the classroom.

Alex was curious about whom his teacher, Edward, could be waiting for at the classroom door.

It was only when William and Wyatt came out that a spark of light finally flickered in Edward\'s eyes. He moved his feet slightly but remained in place, his mouth open, unsure whether or not to call out to William, and if so, how should he address him?

Would calling William \'Mr. Johnson\' in this situation cause any trouble for William\'s life?

William and Edward exchanged a glance. William spoke to Wyatt and then approached Edward, smiling, "Edward, were you looking for me?"

"Yes, yes, yes! I have something…" Edward\'s eyes shone with excitement as he hurriedly said, "Are you... available right now?"

"Sure, let\'s go." William, after living more than a month in this new routine, had become more amiable towards others.

Initially, he didn\'t have a good impression of Edward when they first met, but after a few interactions, he found that the old man wasn\'t as unpleasant as he had thought.

Contrarily, this old man was far more interesting than many others.

At least he had convictions in his heart, a very persistent ordinary person.

Because of this, William\'s attitude towards him had changed somewhat.

When Edward approached William, Wyatt and the others naturally had no choice but to leave awkwardly, but Alex was somewhat confused.

In his impression, William, the student, was definitely not outstanding and often skipped classes. In just over a month, he had missed at least thirty or so classes, and it was already quite good that he hadn\'t been expelled.

Could it be that he hadn\'t been expelled because of his relationship with Edward?

Edward, however, didn\'t think too much about it. He walked alongside William, not talking much on the way. After all, he had too many acquaintances at the school, and he could see that William preferred to keep a low profile and not attract attention.

"Let\'s go to the bookstore," William suggested, probably guessing Alice\'s plan. It might be good for him to check it out too.

The second floor of the bookstore was always empty, and if Edward had something to say, they could talk there.

Edward quickly nodded. He had been waiting for William at the bookstore recently, but for some reason, every time he got close to the bookstore, he felt an inexplicable pressure, as if an instinctual part of him was telling him to stay away.

When William and Edward arrived at the bookstore, it was, as usual, full of Soulmancers.

These Soulmancers were overdoing it, using their Soulmancer abilities to keep ordinary students away, resulting in the store having no business for several days.

These Soulmancers, on the other hand, just sit in the store reading books and don\'t spend anything throughout.

As William and Edward entered the bookstore, they immediately drew sidelong glances from a group of people.

Two of them even exerted an invisible pressure on Edward, probably wanting him to leave on his own.

William was immediately displeased and pointed at the two, saying, "You two, out!"

They had already driven away customers from the store with their presence and still had the audacity to hassle someone William had brought in. It was like a bunch of crows trying to dominate an eagle\'s territory.

"Why should we listen to you?" A young man at the junior Soulmancer level was also unhappy. Why should they leave just because William said so?

Rumors said that William was just a freeloader who hooked up with Alice and Zoey with his charm, and yet he dared to boss them around?

William didn\'t bother to answer his question because, in the next moment, Nelson, with a dark expression, said, "You two! Get out!"

Nelson was utterly obedient to William.

The reason he hadn\'t driven these Soulmancers away was simply because William hadn\'t given the order; he didn\'t dare to guess William\'s intentions recklessly.

Now that William had spoken, it was natural for Nelson to take action.

"...Is there some kind of misunderstanding?" The two junior Soulmancers suddenly turned pale. Why was Nelson siding with William?

Nelson frowned slightly and warned, "Don\'t make me force you out!"

The two men dared not say more and left dejectedly.

Then William said, "From now on, keep your auras in check. This bookstore is for students to buy books. With you all looking fierce and intimidating, you\'ve scared away my customers. Who would dare to come in?"

"What\'s your status to talk to us like that?" A member of a Soulmancer organization coldly glanced at William.

In his view, the reason the previous two were driven out by Nelson was due to their low abilities, failing to attract the great mage Nelson\'s favor.

However, he was an elite member trained by a major Soulmancer organization, with exceptional talent, not comparable to those two at all.

As for William, he didn\'t take him seriously, thinking he was just pretending to be influential by relying on others\' authority.

But before he could finish his words, Nelson had already appeared in front of him and unceremoniously threw him out.

"From now on, you will follow William\'s words. Otherwise, don\'t even think about staying here." Nelson couldn\'t understand why this group of people foolishly sat in the bookstore for so many days. What did they really want?

William, the real master, was right in front of them, but they were completely unaware.

If they didn\'t understand what they could gain from William, then what were they doing sitting there every day?

Were they looking for trouble?

Of course, he didn\'t know that in these people\'s eyes, he himself was the master! They were just hoping to gain some opportunity from him.

Everyone in the bookstore nodded in compliance, and some even speculated that the great mage was teaching them a lesson in how to behave and deal with people.

On further thought, William had a good relationship with the people of the 13th Bureau and an ambiguous relationship with Alice, the master. Living off others can also be a skill. Why look down on him?

It was better not to offend such a person.
