Chapter 431 Do you not spare even men?
But today, having regained his power, the whole world seemed different to him.
Faced with provocation, he slowly scanned the crowd with his gaze and said in a low voice, "All of you, launch the attack together."
"How arrogant! Do you really think you are still that invincible legendary warrior?"
"Since Garen insists, we shall respectfully comply with his wish."
"Together? He doesn't take us seriously! Just because you're a legendary warrior doesn't mean I'm afraid of you."
…
Even in the past, Garen would never dare to invite them all to attack at once, but times have changed.
Seven Demi-God level warriors joined forces, aiming to take down Garen, who supposedly had lost all his power. Indeed, they were showing him great respect.
After all, they were all cunning and shrewd.
Aurelius's behavior just now was indeed strange, and Garen even drew out the Emerald Lion Guild's treasured Excalibur. Now, if everyone doesn't attack together, whoever gets singled out and killed might cause them to lose the courage to confront Garen.
Now that things had escalated, there was no turning back or altering their course.
Garen had to die!
The guild leader who spoke first launched an attack, wielding a spear weighing over 1000 pounds.
The spear, longer than a sword, held an advantage in attack range, so he had never considered Garen a serious threat.
As the spear thrust forward, its whooshing sound was like thundering hooves.
Garen stood immovable, and the sword he thrust out was simple and unadorned.
Sword tip met spear tip!
In an instant, the whooshing of the spear ceased, and all fell silent.
The guild leader's spear was repelled, and Excalibur pierced his heart.
In a single move!
As a Demi-God level warrior, his soul was powerful and would continue to exist even in death. A golden light burst from his forehead, and his soul attempted to escape.
If Garen had wanted to obliterate their souls at that moment, it would have been effortless, but he chose not to.
He knew all too well the cruelty of the Soulmancer world, but once a person was dead, there was no need to be overly ruthless.
The souls of Demi-God level entities could actually reach the Divine Realm directly at that point.
However, nobody knew what the situation was like in the Divine Realm. Generally, Soulmancers were reluctant to go to the Divine Realm in soul form unless absolutely necessary.
Better to be a big fish in a small pond than a small fish in a big pond – they understood this principle better than anyone.
Seeing that Garen had no intention of annihilating his soul, the president wielding the spear hastily fled, not daring to look back!
That sword strike – probably only he and Aurelius truly understood its strength.
At that moment, he finally understood why Aurelius had fled in such a panic.
Such a sword strike, unparalleled in the world!
The other guild leaders, initially eager to swarm Garen, now hesitated.
They had lost their initial momentum.
Garen's single sword strike that repelled Aurelius, followed by another that killed the spear-wielding guild leader, showed that his strength had not weakened but had instead become unimaginably stronger.
They weren't insane enough to want a battle to the death with Garen.
The longer one lives, the more they tend to cherish their life.
Once again, Garen's gaze swept over the crowd, and they silently bowed to him before leaving sullenly.
These were the so-called guild leaders, and Garen couldn't help but find it somewhat laughable.
What was laughable was not just these people but also his former self.
After the other guild leaders left, members of the Emerald Lion Guild gathered around Garen.
One asked, "Guild leader, are we just letting that William go like this?"
They had no idea what had really happened.
From afar, they saw their guild leader unleash powerful energy waves with a wave of his hand, and then William seemed somewhat dejected as he left.
After Garen's power was lost and then restored, his heart was filled with gratitude and admiration for William. Now, to hear someone from his own guild speak of William in such a way, he instantly felt angry.
"What 'Pretty boy'? It's wrong for us to judge others so casually. And just because William looks more handsome and charismatic than you, you call him 'Pretty boy'? How dark is your heart? "
"Ah, this..."
"What 'ah'? Get out of here!" Garen was annoyed by his own people, and his mood quickly soured.
"Issue an order! From now on, our Emerald Lion Guild will no longer have any dealings with other Guilds!" Garen paused and then added, "If anyone from the 13th Bureau visits, treat them with the highest respect. And if... William comes, no matter what I am doing, I must be informed immediately."
This sudden change in attitude was truly abrupt!
Members of the Emerald Lion Guild were utterly confused.
Hadn't their guild leader always been talking about killing that "Pretty boy" William? Why had his attitude towards William changed so drastically in such a short time?
Could it be that something unknown to them had happened during the recent battle between their guild leader and William?
Members of the Emerald Lion Guild were lost in thought.
Could it be...
After losing Alice's protection...
William had seduced the guild leader with his handsome appearance, and even succeeded?
It was just as well that Garen couldn't read minds,otherwise, he would have broken ties with them on the spot, possibly even killing any guild member who thought such things.
"Guild leader, our guild's main gate is gone," finally, a disciple couldn't help but speak up.
Isn't it more than just the guild's main gate being gone?
Garen's recent powerful secret technique had flattened an area of five miles around, completely destroying the recently constructed Guild base.
Now, they were standing on a bare mountain, with no sign of the guild's main gate.
"Rebuild it!" Garen declared. "It doesn't need to be extravagant, keep it simple."
"Yes!"
Garen composed himself and then suddenly asked, "Is the Soulmancer School currently hiring teachers?"
A member of the Emerald Lion Guild nodded, "Yes, we've even sent a couple of people to recruit apprentices."
Garen, deep in thought, inquired, "Is William at the Soulmancer School?"
The guild member looked at Garen with a puzzled expression, "Well... it seems so. I heard he even attended a meeting last time, taking charge of admissions..."
A slight smile appeared on Garen's face as he announced, "I'm going to the Soulmancer School to teach for a few days. You all should focus on improving your strength in the guild and not slack off."
The members of the Emerald Lion Guild exchanged bewildered looks.
Their guild leader, a Demi-God level fighter, going to teach at a school?
Was this some kind of joke?
No, wait!
The last thing Garen asked about was whether William was also at the Soulmancer School.
The members of the Emerald Lion Guild were thrown into confusion.
Could it be...
No way...
Had their guild leader actually fallen for that "Pretty boy" William and decided to go to the Soulmancer School...
Garen paid no attention to his disciples' bewildered mutterings and left, leaving behind a group of disciples whispering among themselves.
"Does William have some unique charm, or did he cast some spell?"
"Do you not spare even men? Do you act as you please just because you're handsome?"
...
