Chapter 724 You're just jealous of me

Arcane Village's base is known as the ultimate fortress.

The order within the base is many times better than that of the inner city base in New York City. ReAd latest chapters at novelhall.com Only

The base of Arcane Village has gathered twenty thousand Soulmancers and superhumans, turning the already modest Arcane Village into a formidable military fortress.

Although Mount Olympus is plagued with ferocious beasts, within a one-mile radius centered on Arcane Village's base, not even a rabbit can be found.

Just half a month ago, tens of thousands of ferocious beasts attempted to storm this ultimate fortress, but not one survived. The foul-smelling blood dyed the foot of Mount Olympus red, and the bones of the beasts piled up into small hills.

Since then, the beasts have learned that this place is dangerous.

Their instincts tell them to stay away from here.

William was previously a celebrity throughout the Soulmancer community, but his reputation was somewhat peculiar.

Rumors have it that he has a good relationship with Director Wenzel of the 13th Bureau, who is none other than Zoey.

William is even married to Alice, who, according to rumors, looks to be in her twenties but is actually a several-thousand-year-old woman.

There are even more rumors that William has an inappropriate relationship with Garen, the president of the Emerald Lion Guild.

This is no longer a simple case of playing the field,it's a chaotic mess of relationships, disregarding gender and age!

"Is that guy William?"

While William and his group were sitting in the public cafeteria eating pasta, they heard some unfriendly voices.

A wimp?

William almost laughed out loud when he heard this nickname.

He had lived for so many years and had many titles: Dr. Johnson, Mr. Johnson, King Arthur, Master...

Of course, over the years, some had called him Pretty Boy, but this was the first time he had heard someone call him a coward.

From the reactions of those around him, it was clear that William was somewhat famous here.

William looked up at the man approaching, a superhuman fully armed.

"You're inviting me for barbecue? Your barbecue can't be as delicious as Mr. Johnson's!"

Amy had been freeloading meals at William's house since she was five, and his cooking skills were undoubtedly top-notch. He even taught Amy's mother, Maria, how to cook, which helped Maria's family escape poverty and lead a better life.

Amy's master was also found by William, and she firmly believed that Mr. Johnson's cooking was the best.

"William?" Hugo sneered at William, "The woman who used to protect you is gone, and now you've resorted to bribing kids with food?"

William raised an eyebrow and retorted, "Isn't that a skill? Do you have a problem with that?"

"Of course, I have a problem!" Hugo scoffed, "If you were really a man, we'd settle this with a fight. You're always hiding behind women or children. What kind of skill is that?"

Unperturbed, William calmly replied, "That is a skill, and you're just jealous of me."

"Damn, jealous of you?" Hugo was visibly annoyed by William's attitude. A Pretty boy with no real skills, acting all high and mighty?

William had no intention of getting into a verbal spat.

"How about we see who can make better barbecue?" William suggested, "The winner gets to be the chef in this cafeteria."

"Fine!" Hugo impulsively agreed, but then realized something was off, "The winner becomes the chef?"

Damn, what kind of competition was that?

Just competing over barbecue was one thing, but why did the winner have to end up as a chef here?

"Then the loser becomes the chef here? For a year." William was somewhat annoyed,his initial suggestion of the winner becoming the chef was just to secure a stable job for himself.

If Hugo wouldn't even give him that chance, then let him be the chef. That should satisfy him.

"You want to stay here and be a chef?" Hugo, guessing William's intention, chuckled, "What are you thinking? If you lose, you leave this base immediately! You're not welcome here!"

Wes narrowed his eyes and said, "Hugo, William is my friend! If you really want to fight, why don't we have a match?"

William waved his hand, "Wes, don't worry about it. Just bring out the meat, and I'll compete with him in making barbecue."

Hearing this, Amy swallowed hard and excitedly said, "Yes! A barbecue competition."

Clearly, she was urging Wes not to meddle further!
