nWilliam himself was unable to enhance his own abilities, but thousands of years ago, during the era when the gods still existed, he had created some methods to enhance abilities through his interactions with the gods.

nJust like the method he taught Alice to enhance her abilities.

nIn addition to this, William had also created numerous techniques shrouded in mystery.

nFor instance, Zeus had once used William’s creation, the “Olympian Thunder Technique,” to enhance his control over thunder and lightning, ultimately establishing Olympus and becoming the chief god in mythology.

nAnother equally famous technique was the “Mystic Transformation Art.”

nThe way that girl earlier channeled her energy was clearly the method William had taught Artemis. William had only taught this technique to her and was certain that, apart from her, no third person knew this technique.

nBut wasn’t Evelyn supposed to be Artemis, who had reincarnated thousands of years ago?

nHow did this girl know the method he had taught Artemis to enhance abilities?

nWilliam was full of doubts, wondering where the mistake had occurred.

nBella asked, “Was that the Manhattan Community Board Director you were talking about?”

nWilliam nodded and asked, “Who do you think has more prestige, you or her?”

nBella glanced at the indent in the ground and gave a dry laugh, “I think this might not be a question of prestige.”

nThe girl’s movements earlier were too fast. Bella and the others hadn’t even clearly seen what had happened before Bryant was knocked out, and then such a hole appeared in the ground.

nUnder normal circumstances, whoever got thrown like that, the ground would certainly not be smashed like this, but the person would definitely be bleeding.

nAll of this seemed so unusual.

nWilliam could sense Travis spying on him from the shadows, so he said to Bella, “Could you please take Evelyn home? We have some things to attend to.”

n“No problem.” Bella was now truly puzzled. Didn’t Alice say that this Evelyn was William’s girlfriend?

nLogically speaking, William should be closer to Evelyn. Why was he asking her to help with something like taking a girl home, instead of doing it himself?

nWilliam said to Alice, “Let’s go.”

n“Oh!” Alice quickly nodded, holding the painting and said to Evelyn, “You go back first, William and I have some things to attend to.”

nEvelyn didn’t ask what they were up to and got into the car with Bella. ．

nAfter they left, Alice whispered, “Master, where are we going now?”

n“Follow me.”

nAfter leaving the club, William headed towards a small alley that didn’t have many people.

nAlice followed closely behind, and as they delved deeper into the alley, she began to feel nervous.

nWhy were they heading in here?

nThis place looked desolate, with the moon shrouded in darkness…

nWilliam even had Bella take Evelyn back, was he planning to do something unspeakable to her?

nThinking about this, Alice felt her heart racing up to her throat, feeling flustered, she kept her head down, feeling all chaotic inside.

nWilliam asked, “Are you nervous?”

n“Ah?” Alice suddenly looked up, staring at William, stuttering, “A… a little…”

nWilliam abruptly stopped, his gaze intensely fixed on Alice, “What’s there to be nervous about?”

n“It’s just… just nervous…” Alice lowered her head, her voice growing fainter, “I’ve never experienced this before…”

nWilliam said, “Everyone has to experience it at some point, it’s fine once you’ve done it for the first time.”

nAlice grew more anxious and spoke softly, “Isn’t it a bit too soon?”

nWilliam responded, “Too soon? I think it’s about right.”

nAlice clenched her fists, bit her lip and stared at William, she glanced around and weakly asked, “It’s not going to happen here, is it?”

nWilliam furrowed his brow and asked, “Where else? I think this place is quite good, there’s no one around.”

nAlice became even more nervous; she never expected William to be so straightforward, “Won’t it be a bit too thrilling?”

nWilliam nodded, “If it’s your first time, it might feel a bit thrilling, but after a few times, you’ll feel it’s nothing.”

n“I’m obviously doing it for the first time.” Alice said, then felt something was off, she stared intently at William and asked, “Have… have you done it many times?”

n“Is that strange?” William often chose secluded places when confronting others, and as for the number of times he had confronted, it was countless.

nAlice’s expression was peculiar; she didn’t know what to say and was even unsure of what she should do.

nThis kind of thing, in this kind of place, and he has done it many times already?

nJust how many girls has William been with?

nAnd he acts as if it’s the most natural thing!

nShe had thought William was a pure-hearted young man.

nWilliam asked, “Are you ready?”

n“I…” Alice felt herself calming down. If William really was that kind of person, she struggled internally for a while before saying, “Can I refuse?”

n“No, you can’t!” William’s expression became serious, and he spoke in a deep voice, “Come out!”

nFrom the end of the alley, Travis leisurely walked out, chuckling sinisterly, “Didn’t expect you to discover my presence, but what of it?”

nAlice was stunned, what was going on?

nWilliam said to Alice: “You haven’t had a hand-to-hand encounter with a Soulmancer yet, have you? Give it a try!”

n“Ah?” Alice finally realized she had been overthinking. What had she been thinking just now?

nOh my! It was utterly embarrassing!

nShe had actually thought William wanted to do that with her in this kind of place…

nAh!

nShe was going to die of embarrassment!

n“What are you thinking?” William frowned, “Getting distracted when facing an enemy, do you want to die?”

n“I…” Alice glanced at William, stared at Travis, and asked, “What do you want?”

nTravis laughed, “Alice, I see you have extraordinary bones and amazing talent, are you interested in dual cultivation with me? I guarantee to make you experience extreme pleasure!”

n“Vulgar!” Alice was no fool; of course, she knew what dual cultivation meant. The calmness she had just regained turned into anger.

nProposing dual cultivation to someone just like that, how shameless can a person be!

nSeeing her reaction, Travis was not angry, but instead, he laughed, “Perhaps you don’t know, but in certain circles, my nickname is ‘Charmer Travis’!”

n“Ugh!” Alice wanted to punch this shameless person in the face. How could someone be so brazen? And ‘Charmer Travis’ at that!

n“Hmm! Interesting response!” Travis’s expression had lost its previous refinement, revealing a sleazy smile, “Anything interesting, I like.”

nThis time Alice had had enough. She stepped forward, aiming a punch at Travis’s annoying face.

n“Fiery temperament, I like!” Travis chuckled, easily dodging Alice’s punch, but his right hand was reaching towards her body.

nAt this moment, he suddenly felt a vibration, as if he had been electrocuted. His hand hadn’t even touched Alice, but it was already frozen in mid-air, and then, he found himself unable to move at all.
