Chapter 515 Cruel?
The Cosmic Entity probably realized Alice's aptitude was exceptionally low, so it decided to give her a cheat code.
By utilizing the power of the holy halo bestowed by the Cosmic Entity, her eyes could detect the flaws in others' moves, and her learning ability was significantly enhanced.
She became sensitive to the killing intent released by enemies and the energy fluctuations of her opponents.
Furthermore, after the holy halo fully integrated with her body, her physical strength, resistance, and mental power all increased exponentially.
William also noticed that once Alice uses this ability, the power of the holy aura surrounding her would gradually diminish.
With the Cosmic Entity's power, it's entirely possible to easily grant such abilities to others.
Just like those pseudo "Chosen Ones" also have various benefits, right?
After all, Alice is considered a guardian of the Cosmic Entity, a true Chosen One. How could she not have a cheat code to assist her?
With all attributes increasing multifold, this cheat code could be considered overpowered.
However, William didn't know if the Cosmic Entity could grant such powers to him.
He dared not imagine if his attributes were enhanced dozens of times or even more, would he be able to shatter the entire universe with a single punch?
Unfortunately, William has never craved powerful strength. New novel chapters are published at novelhall.com
After all, only the weak yearn for power.
Someone like William has no desire to become stronger and has lost all interest in enhancing his abilities.
Today was another day when Alice was easily defeated.
Alice was improving, Garen was also getting stronger, and even William was starting to get confused about whether Garen was there to be Alice's sparring partner or if Alice was there to be his.
A cheat code?
Even if it was bestowed by the Cosmic Entity, it's still something from someone else. If she truly becomes dependent on it, wouldn't her strength greatly diminish if the Cosmic Entity decided to take it back?
William watched for a while and roughly calculated that Alice's abilities had improved by about five times, but when it came to actual combat, it wasn't as simple as just five times the improvement!
Strength and speed both increased fivefold, and her reaction ability also improved fivefold. As a high-level Soulmaster, she could now almost evenly match a Quasi-Deity level Soulmaster.
"That's enough for today!"
Just after Alice was sent flying hundreds of feet away by Garen's sword and got stuck in a stone wall, William called a halt.
"Let's go back and continue to improve your strength."
Her intentions were clear.
Perhaps that could also be considered liking.
Can't liking have intentions?
Seraphina somehow survived the soul-deep questioning from William, standing tremblingly in the yard.
Finally, she smiled, "See? Do you believe me now?"
William raised an eyebrow, "I believe! But I don't like you!"
Alice stood by, dumbfounded, not sure what Seraphina had just experienced.
But from the conversation between William and Seraphina, it seemed, Seraphina really did like William.
"Alright, I understand. I won't appear in front of you anymore." Seraphina took out a wallet, placed it on a stone table nearby, and left the yard in a daze.
Before this, she wasn't sure if she truly liked William.
She had once thought that she probably just wanted to have a sexual relationship with William, and then she would become stronger, and maybe there were some feelings.
That was all.
But after what just happened, she felt that she might truly have fallen for William.
Unfortunately, William's rejection was too decisive.
Looking at Seraphina's retreating figure, Alice felt a twinge of pity and hesitated for a moment before speaking up, "Wasn't that a bit too harsh on her?"
William raised his hand and knocked on her head, "Are you stupid?"
"Stop hitting me! It really hurts! I'll really become stupid if you keep this up." Alice whined, cradling her head.
It seemed she had been knocked on the head quite a few times these days.
William didn't elaborate further but instead told Alice, "Go inside and meditate. Hurry up and increase your strength level!"
"Okay." Alice, holding her head, went inside to begin meditating.
William, as if nothing had happened, picked a book from his spatial storage ring and sat down under the plane tree, quietly reading.
All was peaceful.
Cosmic Entities, divine beings descending from the Divine Realm, or being cruel to someone, seemed like non-issues to him, as if he hadn't done anything before, still that youth who had just woken up.
