Chapter 644 Is he... really your boyfriend?
In the 13th District of the Divine Alliance.
William, accompanied by Forseti, appeared directly in front of Alice.
At that moment, Alice was standing in front of the 13th District's city walls... guarding the gate.
For as long as William had been away, she had been guarding the gate.
This was the task Aphrodite had assigned to her.
To work in the 28th District, she first had to guard the gate here for a month before discussing a change of position.
When William and his companion suddenly appeared at the gate, a group of Valkyries guarding it watched them warily.
Some even activated a powerful binding barrier, ready to apprehend these two presumptuous intruders.
"Gaiara, don't!" Alice, seeing the Valkyrie next to her about to make a move against William, quickly shouted to stop her.
The one named Gaiara sized up William and Forseti, then asked Alice, "Alice, are they your friends?"
Alice, having gone through much, was no longer the girl who blushed at the slightest provocation. With a slight smile, looking at William, she said, "He's my boyfriend."
Such a designation was rather unusual in the Divine Realm, but the Valkyries understood its meaning.
"Oh!" The Valkyrie had a moment of realization, then said, "He looks quite handsome, not bad. Do they have the pass to enter District 13? If not, you need to report to Aphrodite, the master of District 13."
"Hello, we have the Odin Sapphire. I wonder if that would allow us entry?" William, having seen the Odin Sapphire Odin gave to Lucien, conjured up a similar one effortlessly.
Adhering to certain local customs wasn't difficult for him, but with his wife working in the 13th District, he didn't want to be too unassuming. Being questioned at every different district checkpoint of the Sanctuary of the Celestial Gods was not a pleasant experience.
Gaiara, looking at the Odin Sapphire in William's hand, frowned slightly and said, "Technically, having the Odin Sapphire should grant you entry... But esteemed friend, please keep a low profile. This is the Divine Alliance, not the territory of the Ultimate Force Alliance."
This admonition from the Valkyrie was meant as advice, yet Forseti found it quite displeasing.
The Odin Sapphire, less significant than a mere pass?
You must know that anyone who can obtain the Odin Sapphire is necessarily Odin's envoy, with unparalleled strength. The words of this woman are simply unreasonable.
Does Odin, the leader of the Ultimate Force Alliance, not care about his dignity?
"Are you looking down on the envoys sent by Odin?" Although Forseti doesn't like Odin, this disdain is purely personal...
It's like how some students might nickname their teachers and even curse them behind their backs, but they would never allow anyone else to insult their teachers.
Human nature is complex, and it's no different in the Divine Realm.
"..."
Alice was at a loss for words, finally realizing that the Divine Realm was too chaotic, especially regarding relationships between men, women, and women with women...
The 13th District was no exception. Since she began standing guard at the city gate, no fewer than twenty Valkyries had attempted to broach this subject with her.
This situation was dire!
Alice didn't realize that because she had fully absorbed the power of the divine aura and was nurtured by William's love, the energy aura she emitted had already become different from others. This energy aura was like an enticing perfume, very alluring to everyone around her, regardless of gender.
Although these Valkyries in the 13th District were unaware of these details, their intuition told them that becoming partners with Alice would be a splendid choice.
"Alice, don't be scared, I was just saying. If you don't agree, I won't force you." Gaiara, with a friendly smile, said, "What's so good about men? They're dirty and smelly. I smell so much nicer!" She even winked at Alice after saying this.
...
Alice shivered, gave a couple of awkward laughs, and then stood to the side without speaking or paying any attention to Gaiara.
William, accompanied by Forseti, walked through the streets of the 13th District, surrounded by goddesses who were graceful, radiant, and voluptuously enchanting.
Forseti is Baldr's only son, and due to his status, it's impossible for him to seek procreation with his own kind.
Additionally, because the Shapeshifters enhance their strength through secret techniques that require them to remain in human form for extended periods, he has become accustomed to the aesthetics of human form. Therefore, he finds the women of District 13 around him very enticing.
"Lord William, where are we going?" Forseti heard William say he was taking him into District 13 for some food, but along the way, William did not stop.
Though they weren't walking fast, it was clear they were heading somewhere with a purpose.
"Ever heard of Aphrodite?"
"The most beautiful woman in the Divine Realm?" Forseti's eyes lit up.
William said, "Do you want to meet her? Want to court her? Although, she's been married before."
"So what?" Forseti didn't care, saying, "Aphrodite is Uranus's daughter. That she married Hephaestus was a loss. As a beauty of the Ultimate Force Alliance's deputy leader, naturally, she should marry someone like me."
William's eyes narrowed slightly and said, "Why don't you ask your father to speak to Uranus about this?"
He hadn't come to the city just to eat. He was aware of everything that had happened to Alice these days.
Aphrodite letting a bunch of women seduce Alice was quite a move.
The most beautiful woman in the Divine Realm?
William once regarded her as he would a niece, yet she seemed to hold a grudge over her sisters' tragic love affairs.
Unfortunately for her, William felt no indebtedness. Aphrodite's actions these days indeed warranted some correction.
