Chapter 494 The old Walker was back! He really had returned!
Can this really be done with four people together?
Bella stared at Seraphina with her mouth agape.
What has the world come to nowadays?
Usually, people play some tricks when trying to steal someone’s boyfriend. This young lady was ruthless enough, not only suggesting adding herself to the mix but even offering to bring in another.
This kind of arithmetic, where three plus one sometimes equals three and sometimes equals four, was truly absurd.
William couldn’t listen anymore and frowned, “That’s enough! Just because you don’t mind doesn’t mean I don’t.”
Seraphina had been around William long enough to feel that as long as she didn’t really anger him, her life wasn’t in danger.
William always seemed quite amiable.
But at this moment, Seraphina didn’t dare to say more, avoiding William’s gaze and turning away, she closed her mouth.
This was, in fact, a test for her.
She wanted to know how William would react to her bold confession.
He hadn’t killed her for it!
That was enough for her!
Faced with Seraphina’s blunt words, William didn’t feel embarrassed.
William still had emotions and desires, and to keep his life from becoming too monotonous, he hadn’t discarded these feelings.
He simply hadn’t given up various attachments.
This was why, over the years, he indulged in food, sleep, and even carnal desires, still possessing the most primitive male desires, yet never thought of forsaking these things to become stronger.
Bella, of course, couldn’t be like Seraphina.
Although she found William quite impressive, nothing special had happened between them, and she wouldn’t suddenly fall madly in love with William.
As they were dining, Walker also came in. Upon seeing William and the others, he excitedly walked over.
Bella’s demeanor changed slightly upon seeing Walker,they had met before at the Soulmancer Academy.
Initially, after learning some skills from Bryant, Walker thought he was destined for great things and that every beautiful girl he met was a potential addition to his future harem.
However, after repeated setbacks and encountering more and more elites, Walker began to have a clearer understanding of his own position.
At first, when he was Alice’s bodyguard, he fantasized about a love story between a damsel and her protector.
But now, it was clear that Alice was with William.
Not willing to be a hopelessly devoted suitor like Lucien, Walker promptly shifted his focus.
Naturally, his new target became Bella.
A beautiful CEO with the potential to become a Soulmancer β wasn’t choosing her a good idea?
“Bell, what a coincidence,” Walker greeted as he sat next to Bella.
Bella rolled her eyes, “This is my restaurant. You’ll find it ‘coincidental’ to see me here every day.”
“That’s quite the coincidence, too,” Walker replied, now wiser, with a smile.
He asked for an extra set of cutlery and then turned to William, “William, the first term at the Soulmancer Academy is almost over. Have you thought about joining any Soulmancer organizations?”
Bella, despite being the restaurant’s owner, was also a vice president of a company and a student at the Soulmancer Academy.
If Walker could find her here, wasn’t that more than just a coincidence?
Through his recent experiences, Walker wouldn’t bluntly point this out anymore.
Bella’s behavior indicated that she had a positive impression of Walker. She wasn’t deliberately avoiding him and might even be waiting for him to seek her out.
William smiled, “I haven’t decided which organization to join yet.
I’ll think about it later.”
Having spent time at the Soulmancer Academy, William clearly
understood the power of contemporary Soulmancers and had
learned some basic secret arts, gaining some insights.
Striving to bring his abilities closer to the average level of this
era was William’s goal.
“I can now hold my own against advanced Soulmancer elites,”
Walker said, looking somewhat puzzled at William. “You seem to
have a good relationship with Teacher Maximus. Why don’t you
ask him to teach you witchcraft? That could be an option.”
He paused for a moment, giving Alice a meaningful look, and
added, “Or maybe you could ask Alice to teach you
swordsmanship, which wouldn’t be a bad idea.”
“Let’s talk about that later,” William didn’t argue, sensing πͺπ³.πΈππ
Walker’s goodwill.
Of course, William didn’t rule out the possibility that Walker was
trying to show off his skills in front of Bella.
As Walker ate, he said earnestly, “William, I must say, in this era,
powerful Soulmancers are prevalent. If you don’t work hard to
improve your strength, you might not even be able to defend
yourself against a formidable enemy.”
“It’s not shameful for a man to be weak, but ambition is
essential. You can’t always hide behind Alice, right?”
Walker spoke earnestly, advising William.
It was like a seasoned colleague looking out for a less
successful peer, feeling a sense of frustration that they aren’t
achieving their potential.
William wasn’t offended,instead, he looked at Alice with a smile
and said, “I quite like being behind her.” πͺπ.π€ππ
“…” Alice’s breath hitched.
That statement…
Something was off!
Wasn’t there a word missing?
She couldn’t help but recall William teaching her new positions.
Being behind… was indeed quite nice…
But to say that in public?
No, that’s not right!
She must have misunderstood.
Alice felt there was something wrong with her thoughts and
decided she should reflect on this after going home.
Walker, not misinterpreting William’s words, sighed and said,
“You decide for yourself! You’re the first bro I’ve made since
coming to this world. If someone bullies you, just tell me, and I’ll
avenge you!”
“If you want to live a peaceful life as a wealthy man, I can help
with that too.” Walker paused, then turned to Bella and said,
“Bell, for my sake, please help William out a bit more.”
“…” Bella was at a loss for words for a moment.
William, however, was smiling happily.
The old Walker was back! He really had returned!
He was as flamboyant as ever!
Typical you!
Alice really didn’t know where Walker got the courage to say all
this.
These days, Alice had been wondering just how strong William
really was.
But judging from her current understanding of the methods
and theories of becoming a Soulmancer, William seemed
incredibly powerful, not fitting into any known level of strength.
Throughout the rest of their time, Walker intentionally and
unintentionally showcased his significant progress and also
hinted at his admiration for Bella.
After some casual conversation, three young men swaggered
in.
The receptionist who had greeted William earlier was
apologetically explaining to them that dining here required a
reservation and asking them to make one.
However, the leader of the group ignored her, sneering, “I never
make reservations when I dine! And today, I’m here to find
someone!”
As he spoke, his gaze had already locked onto William’s table.
