Chapter 492 No, I won’t go!
Chapter 492 No, I won\'t go!
The sword she wielded on the first day to declare the end of the battle was obviously incredibly strong, yet in the following days, she won each fight narrowly.
She fought three battles every afternoon and won them all.
The most outrageous part was that sometimes, when these deities felt they could kill Alice, they would either be struck by lightning from the sky, leaving them half-dead, or be defeated by Alice\'s seemingly bizarre techniques.
What was going on?
If you are strong, just say it clearly!
Why does she need to make every battle seem evenly matched?
Who is she performing for?
Towards the end, the deities, whose powers had been suppressed by William, were no longer fighting desperately.
If they couldn\'t win, they\'d rather accept defeat.
If the gap in strength between them wasn\'t too large, they would naturally strive for victory. But if the disparity was too great, the fight was frankly pointless.
Because of this, Alice found the battles increasingly easy,
"William, is there more to this secret technique you taught me? Shouldn\'t my strength be breaking through the advanced Soulmancer level by now?" Alice was puzzled, having also studied the theoretical aspects of becoming a Soulmancer in recent days.
The progression of a Soulmancer\'s level, after reaching the advanced level, should move to Demi-God, followed by Quasi-Deity, Lesser Deity, and then ascending in soul form to the Divine Realm.
Logically, her strength had surged recently.
She had even fought against some advanced Soulmancer elites, none of whom could match her.
So, shouldn\'t she be breaking through to a higher level of power?
William smiled, "The secret technique I taught you is only of the advanced Soulmancer level; there is no further content."
"No further content?" Alice asked, puzzled. "Does that mean it\'s incomplete?"
William explained, "This secret technique was something I created randomly when I was bored. It can only elevate one\'s strength to the level of an advanced Soulmancer. For any further progression, you\'ll have to figure it out yourself, or you can just remain at the advanced Soulmancer level."
In William\'s view, these so-called strength levels classified among Soulmancers were essentially meaningless, as evidenced by Alice, with her advanced Soulmancer level, defeating peak advanced Soulmancer elites.
Who dares to say that a higher strength level always translates to being more formidable?
William recalled that during the medieval period, there was a so-called \'strongest intermediate Soulmancer\' whose power surpassed that of a Demi-God level.
Strength was never something that could be fully encapsulated by a level classification.
"You mean I have to figure it out myself?" Alice was stunned,she hadn\'t expected this.
She initially thought that after she mentioned it, William would perfect the technique and continue her training.
William seriously said, "The technique I taught you was just to lay a good foundation. How it evolves from here will depend on you."
Since Alice was now augmented by Cosmic Entity power, William didn\'t plan to teach her anything more.
He had already taught her almost everything necessary,the rest was up to Alice\'s understanding.
While they were talking, a little girl with twin ponytails and wearing a white dress approached them.
Even Alice was visibly taken aback by the girl\'s appearance,she had to admit the girl was exceptionally beautiful.
With skin as smooth and fair as milk and bright, captivating eyes, Alice was stunned at first sight.
"Mr. Johnson, I\'ll pay back a hundred dollars today. To show my gratitude, how about I treat you to a meal?" Seraphina approached William cheerfully.
Paying back a hundred dollars first?
Oh!
Suddenly, William felt this tactic was very familiar!
He remembered when he had borrowed money from Lila in
front of David and then told David that if he kept bothering him,
he would pay back Lila a hundred dollars at a time, with various
dates...
Now, was Seraphina using the same tactic on him?
"No need for a meal! Forget about the rest of the money,you
don\'t have to pay it back," William declined decisively.
He might not be the kind of man who feared his wife, but
Seraphina\'s intentions seemed rather dubious.
"Who are you?" Alice looked at Seraphina warily. The issue of
enhancing strength wasn\'t the focus now. Who was this little
girl in front of her, and what was her relationship with William?
She couldn\'t be another woman of William\'s, could she?
But she looked quite young.
"Alice, have you forgotten me so quickly?" Seraphina blinked
and smiled, "I\'m Seraphina! Mr. Johnson helped me reshape my
body recently, and he bought me a phone and clothes. I\'ve
come today to repay him."
"Seraphina?" Alice\'s expression was even more shocked than
when she heard William mention that the secret technique
required self-discovery.
She turned to William, feeling as if she suddenly had a rival.
"Yes, that\'s how Seraphina looks now. She changed into this
half a month ago." William was quite candid about it.
"But you never told me," Alice pouted, but soon she smiled,
looking at the present Seraphina and asking, "How did you end
up looking like this?"
Her smile was clearly a bit schadenfreude.
She vividly remembered how Seraphina, when sharing a body
with Sofia, had infuriated her by saying, "Your child will go
hungry."
Now, in this form, Seraphina hardly looked capable of feeding a
child, appearing more like a child herself.
Seraphina casually replied, "What\'s wrong with looking like this?
Mr. Johnson likes girls in this style."
William gave her a look, "Do you think I have a thing for
children?"
He didn\'t mind Alice\'s size, but Seraphina\'s current form was
clearly that of a child, going beyond just a matter of size.
Though William was relatively open-minded, he wasn\'t twisted
enough to fancy an underage girl.
"Pedophilia?!" Seraphina was almost exploding, "Mr. Johnson,
you should know, I\'ve lived for hundreds of thousands of years."
William, expressionless, said, "Then I don\'t like older women who
pretend to be little girls."
Older women pretending to be little girls?!!!
Seraphina was momentarily at a loss for words.
Especially hearing such a remark from William.
Considering William\'s capabilities, Seraphina absolutely didn\'t
believe he hadn\'t lived for several million years.
And yet he calls her an old woman?
"Ha ha ha ha!" Alice burst into laughter on the side, "Old woman,
Amy has been taking good care of you these days, hasn\'t she?"
If William calling her an old woman was a critical hit, then Alice\'s
comment was downright a stab to the heart!
"Do you guys want to join us for dinner or not?" Seraphina
wasn\'t really afraid of William anymore,she had thought it
through.
Isn\'t it just about stealing someone else\'s boyfriend?
What\'s so difficult about that?
She also didn\'t believe that someone like William could
genuinely like an ordinary woman like Alice.
"No, I won\'t go!" William flatly refused.
"Let\'s go!" Alice\'s smile grew wider, "Why not go eat?"
Compete with her for a man? Was she afraid?
If she was afraid to invite them to dinner, wouldn\'t that show a
lack of faith in her relationship with William?
