Chapter 451 I think you'd be better off as an ordinary person

Astraeus didn't say anything more. "Ares, weren't you going to teach here? You can talk with Director Wenzel at leisure. I'm taking him away." Astraeus informed Ares and then said to Elliot, "Come with me."

Elliot was utterly baffled by the situation.

Wasn't Astraeus going to punish Garen?

After all, the Pantheon Guild was the foremost Soulmaner organization in the Soulmaner realm. Shouldn't they uphold justice and avenge Emeric?

"You're not coming?!" Astraeus's gaze turned icy, his tone growing stern.

He didn't want to escalate the situation to avoid causing trouble for the Pantheon Guild. Thi/s chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.co/m

But if Elliot really refused to leave, then killing him right there wouldn't be too much of a problem.

Although currently, the 13th Bureau is advocating that Soulmancers should abide by the law in the Soulmancer community, at the end of the day, do they still adhere to the principle of the strong being revered?

Justice?

Garen, as the head of the Emerald Lion Guild, had killed the vice president of the Echoes of Eternity Guild. That was a matter between their guilds. Even if William wasn't here, Astraeus certainly wouldn't intervene.

Elliot shivered and hurriedly said, "I'll come with you!"

And so, Astraeus took Elliot away, leaving Ares behind.

Ares looked relatively young, around his twenties, with a face full of collagen, but his hair was already streaked with silver.

Even as a Demi-God, the primal life force in his body was nearly depleted. At this point, only by entering the Divine Realm in a soul state and reconstructing his body could he extend his life.

"Excuse me, which of you is Director Wenzel?" Ares genuinely didn't recognize Zoey. He had been in a state of frenzy for a long time, and Astraeus hadn't introduced him to Director Wenzel before leaving.

Zoey looked at Ares and asked, "What do you want with me?"

Ares scrutinized Zoey carefully and quickly discerned her true nature.

"Warrior God Constitution?" Ares looked at Zoey somewhat surprised.

The Warrior God Constitution is a remarkable combat talent, possessing an extraordinary affinity with soul energy. In any era, it's considered the genius of geniuses.

However, due to Zoey's unique method of enhancing her abilities, which perfectly integrates soul energy with her physical body, it's impossible to directly assess her true strength. Even Ares could only gauge her power based on the faint energy she emitted.

He felt that Zoey wasn't very strong, but that William...

His judgement seemed inaccurate.

William wasn't as swift. He strolled up leisurely to Garen and said, "President Garen, may I borrow your wooden sword?"

Garen handed his wooden sword to William.

William and Evelyn stood in the center of all the students.

All the students watched them with wide eyes.

Some knew Evelyn's strength and also knew of William's "strength."

A Demi-God level facing a novice Soulmancer, isn't that like picking on a newbie?

Evelyn, holding a wooden sword and wearing a smile like a blossom, telepathically said to William, "Would you really have the heart to kill me?"

William's eyebrows slightly raised as he telepathically replied, "You don't actually think I couldn't do it, do you?"

Even though they were lovers in the past, and even spouses in a previous life two thousand years ago, Evelyn couldn't believe that William would actually kill her.

"Why don't you kill me then?" Evelyn's gaze gradually turned icy. "Or are you just trying to hide your true strength?"

William didn't telepathically respond this time,instead, he spoke indifferently, "Draw your sword!"

Many students around them laughed. Was William really asking Evelyn to draw her sword? Did he expect her to attack first?

Evelyn took a deep breath, energy swirling around her wooden sword, warping the light near it.

Garen, watching silently, wondered if the girl was going all out. Indeed, she knew William's strength! Was she hoping for William to guide her?

William, on the other hand, appeared quite ordinary. His sword-holding posture was casual, and no energy fluctuations were detectable from his wooden sword.

To the uninformed, it looked like Evelyn was serious. If Garen didn't intervene to save William, William might end up being carried back today.

However, Evelyn was just testing. She wanted to know if William still had any affection for her, if he would actually kill her.

Swoosh!

Evelyn thrust her sword towards William's chest, energy surging, her intent to kill clear and cold.

William slightly lifted his eyelids, casually flicking his wooden sword upward.

"I don't want to kill you, but I think you'd be better off as an ordinary person."

With that, Evelyn's wooden sword was flicked away by William's effortless strike. At the same moment, her pupils dilated, feeling an overwhelming, majestic force transmitting through her sword.

A mysterious and unfathomable power shattered her energy shield, piercing the core of her soul. Her strength rapidly drained away.
