Chapter 303 Becoming "brothers" after just meeting?

What just happened?

William felt the soft warmth at his lips and swallowed hard, his heartbeat unexpectedly accelerating.

For someone like William, even the destruction of the entire world wouldn't make him blink an eye.

His heart racing?

How could that be?

He was no naive youngster, ignorant of the ways of the world. He had been with many women before, but it had been many years since he felt this way.

Could it be because Alice was his disciple?

"Hehehe... Master, what's with that expression?" Alice looked triumphant, her laughter echoing with a 'hehehe' sound.

She was still sitting on William's lap, their position couldn't be more suggestive.

"Have you lost your mind?" William never imagined that he would one day be forcefully kissed by a woman, let alone his own disciple.

Just now, the so-called flirtation with those girls was at most some hugging and embracing. Nothing more happened, after all, William is not someone who takes things lightly.

"Hehe! Master, do you know? You look really cute right now." Taking advantage of her tipsiness, Alice began to playfully squeeze William's face with both hands.

William, on the other hand, looked like a little girl being teased by a bully, staring in shock at Alice, who was acting wildly under the influence of alcohol.

Taking a deep breath, William finally calmed down. With a quick tap on Alice's neck, she lost consciousness and fell into a deep sleep, no longer acting crazily.

But as she slept, her body slumped limply into William's arms.

Both of them were dressed lightly, their bodies pressed closely together. William could distinctly feel the warmth emanating from Alice's body.

Her breathing was soft and steady. In this moment, William felt as if she were a peaceful angel, bringing him a sense of warmth and tranquility.

"Phew!" William exhaled deeply, lifted Alice up, and then placed her on the sofa.

He didn't leave because Lila and the intermediate Soulmancer were already standing in front of him.

When Alice suddenly released her aura earlier, ordinary people only felt pressure, but an intermediate Soulmancer could sense her presence.

William had originally planned for Alice to spar with this intermediate Soulmancer to gain combat experience, but seeing the current situation, that was completely out of the question now.

"William, you..." Lila immediately recognized William. She glanced at Alice, who had fallen into a deep sleep, and with a smile on her face, she asked, "You're not working here now, are you?" n-)o-.V(/e))l)-b--1-.n

After all, William had previously worked in a bar, so it wasn't impossible for him to be working in a different establishment now...

William had completely regained his usual composure and poise. With a light smile, he said, "We're just here to have some fun."

Lila tentatively asked, "It seems like you and Alice are quite close."

It was more than just being close. Lila had seen the moment when Alice forcefully kissed William, and it seemed likely that the two were in a romantic relationship.

"Um, yes, it's quite alright," William nodded, glancing at Alice beside him, and said, "Sorry, she's had too much to drink. We'll be leaving now."

"Wait a minute!" The man next to Lila suddenly called out.

Both William and Lila turned to look at him, not understanding his intention.

"Since we've met, it must be fate. Why not make friends? There's still so much wine left on your table; it would be a shame to leave it undrunk," said the man. He was handsome, with sharp brows and bright eyes, and a tall, upright figure. He spoke with a cheerful smile, "Are you William Johnson? My last name is also Johnson, Wesley Johnson. Where are you from? Maybe we were distant relatives a few hundred years ago."

"Wesley?" William's gaze slightly sharpened,the name sounded familiar.

He remembered that recently, his roommate Wyatt often shouted while playing video games, "Wesley! Wesley! Look at his performance!" and similar phrases.

"Have you heard of me?" Wesley, seeing William's expression, became curious.

William smiled and replied, "The name does sound familiar."

"Then we should definitely have a few drinks together," Wesley said as he sat down.

William didn't mind having a few drinks. Alice might need to rest for a while after being hit just now. Having someone to drink with him was also not a bad thing.

"Where's your hometown?" Wesley asked, becoming more friendly in his conversation with William after sitting down. Despite the noise in the place, Wesley felt confident that William, who he had discerned was also a Soulmancer, would hear him clearly.

William answered with a smile, "I'm from New York."

Talking about his hometown was somewhat abstract for William. When he first became aware of his existence, he was the only humanoid in the entire world, and the concept of geographical regions didn't exist then. He could even claim Earth as his hometown, and it wouldn't be incorrect.

"Is that so? Have you heard of the Johnson family from Texas?" Wesley asked. "My elders mentioned that about two hundred years ago, a branch of our family settled in New York. We might actually be distant relatives."

"The Johnson family from Texas? I've heard a friend mention them," William replied, slightly surprised. This quick turn to potential familial ties suggested that Wesley was keen on establishing a connection with him. The Texas Johnson family must have been quite prestigious in their area.

Wesley's suggestion, if William were just an ordinary, novice Soulmancer, might indeed have led him to consider accepting this unexpected "relative" relationship.

After all, Soulmancers usually need the backing of powerful organizations to provide assistance in times of trouble. For an average Soulmancer, having the support of a strong background is undoubtedly beneficial for enhancing their capabilities.

Wesley, with a smile, poured two glasses of wine and pushed one towards William. He said with a laugh, "Since you and I have hit it off so well today, why don't we become good brothers right here and now? Drink this glass, and from then on, you'll be a member of the Soulmancer organization of the Johnson family from Texas. What do you say?"

Becoming "brothers" after just meeting?

How is this speed any different from discussing future family planning on a first date with a girl?

While William himself didn't need to be too cautious of others, given he rarely had to worry about any threats, Wesley's proposal still seemed somewhat bizarre to him.

"We'll be the best of brothers from now on," William responded, not rejecting the offer. Having one more friend was no big deal, especially since the more eccentric the person, the more interesting he found them. He was curious to see what Wesley was really up to.

Another reason was that he was planning to visit Texas, so meeting someone from the Johnson family of Texas and forming connections seemed timely.

"Sounds great!" Wesley said, clinking glasses with William and then downing his drink in one go.

William hadn't expected that coming out for a drink would lead to so many events unfolding. He had thought about initiating some action, but now, it seemed like events were finding him.

After drinking their glasses, Wesley and William's relationship seemed to grow closer. Wesley then asked, "William, you know Miss Carter too?"

William nodded: "You could say we're old acquaintances."

"Ha ha, then we really are fated!" Wesley laughed and said, "If everything goes well, Miss Carter might become my wife in the future."
