Invincible! This person has lived for a billion years

Chapter 323 Do the children eat seafood?

William really wondered if this little phoenix in front of him had been scared silly by him, as it even voluntarily wanted to stay at his house.

Having tasted many ancient Fantastical Creatures before, William had experienced creatures even more powerful than the giant wolf Fenrir and the phoenix from Norse mythology.

Therefore, William wasn’t particularly interested in Luna, who had already taken on a human form.

In the ancient mythological era, legendary Fantastical Creatures often despised transforming into human forms. They possessed powerful bloodlines and strength, far surpassing ordinary humans.

But with the emergence of powerful gods, demons, and Soulmancers, many mysterious magical techniques also appeared. These techniques often required a human form to better unleash their power.

After numerous battles with gods and Soulmancers, many legendary Fantastical Creatures started seeking ways to transform into human forms.

Some occupied human bodies through possession, while others transformed into humans through magical techniques, to more conveniently enhance their abilities.

William also realized that Luna’s current human form was probably due to that thing he had expelled from his body.

Creatures like Luna were often referred to as Shapeshifters by ordinary Soulmancers.

“Little friends, it’s not possible to stay at my place; my house can’t accommodate you!” William was genuinely worried that one day, driven by hunger, he might end up stewing or grilling these two little ones.

In these peaceful times, legendary Fantastical Creatures should be considered rare and protected animals, and eating them would most likely be illegal.

“Then we should go with this uncle,” Erebus said, grabbing Jayce’s wrist while also sneaking a glance at Alice. He couldn’t understand why Luna suddenly wanted to stay at that ordinary person’s house. Now, he just wanted to get as far away from that terrifying woman as possible.

Before Jayce could respond, Alice said, “Actually, they could stay at my place for the time being. My house has plenty of room.”

Luna and Erebus stiffened almost simultaneously, looking pitifully at Alice.

Was this woman changing her mind about keeping them as pets?

It was rumored that those twisted powerful beings loved to keep little pets, especially legendary Fantastical Creatures like them…

But Luna and Erebus didn’t dare refuse this woman.

If the mental force William had released was only slightly stronger than them, even just one level higher, the two little ones wouldn’t have been so terrified.

But it was just too much stronger!

“Alright then.” The two little ones sulked, with Luna reluctantly letting go of William’s leg.

It was over! They were doomed!

They had come to the Prime World from the Underworld, initially planning to explore New York for any ancient relics. But before they found anything, they ended up becoming someone else’s pets, which was quite tragic.

Erebus gritted his teeth, preparing to fight Alice, but then heard Luna say, “Okay, we’ll stay at your place.”

Erebus frowned at Luna. They were top-tier Fantastical Creatures,how could they become pets?

Luna communicated telepathically, “We can’t die!”

Their purpose in coming to the Prime World was to bring their supreme god to this world. No matter what, they couldn’t die.

Enduring humiliation or becoming pets, whatever it took, they just couldn’t die!

Alice was also baffled. She had kindly offered to shelter these two little ones, but why did they look so forlorn?

It must be because children are shy around strangers! They’ll get used to it after a while.

William saw through the misunderstanding. The two little ones thought it was Alice who had locked onto their souls.

What a delightful misunderstanding.

Since that was the case, he didn’t bother to intervene anymore. Whether it was fortune or misfortune, it was up to Alice now.

The Texas Soulmancers’ threat to kill Alice turned into a joke in the end.

With Jayce’s sincere apology, the two sides fully reconciled.

However, the forgotten Soulmancers of Texas became a laughingstock in the Soulmancer community.

They had been so adamant about not needing the protection of the 13th Bureau, and after all the fuss, it was like they let out a fart with no follow-up.

And Jayce even traveled all the way to New York to apologize.

It was like letting out a fart, then pocketing it, and everyone thinking he was going to light a firework, but then he just sucked it back in. How embarrassing!

Jayce was utterly disheartened. What happened to Erebus’s promise to make their Johnson family the world’s number one Soulmancer family?

After his round of apologies, he walked away dejectedly.

Not only was he despised, but the words Darius had previously said couldn’t be taken back either. 𝓵𝙞𝓫𝒓𝙚𝓪𝓭.𝒄𝓸𝓶

The entire Texas Soulmancer families were still not well-regarded by other Soulmancer organizations.

After Jayce left, Wes started inquiring about the names of the two little ones, even asking if they remembered where they lived, any landmarks, and if they knew their parents’ phone numbers. 𝓁𝒾𝒷𝘳ℯ𝘢𝑑.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Turned out, apart from their names, the two kids knew nothing and looked utterly clueless.

Especially when Wes asked their ages, Luna counted with her fingers and claimed she was 13,800 years old.

Erebus, with a cold demeanor, stated, “I am 13,801 years old.”

“…”Wes was speechless at that moment.

Luna glared fiercely at Erebus; if it weren’t for their fear of Alice, the two would have probably started fighting again.

“Alice, could you please take care of these two little ones for now? I will try my best to find their parents,” Wes finally gave up on communicating with the two kids.

13,000 years old? They looked like children of seven or eight years who couldn’t even remember their own parents’ phone numbers.

Thus, Luna and Erebus were left at the bookstore.

With Jayce’s apology, Alice felt her crisis was over and heaved a sigh of relief.

“Everyone, dinner’s on me tonight. How about seafood?” Alice announced back at the bookstore, offering to treat everyone.

After all, she had gotten to know these Soulmancers over the past couple of days. Although they hadn’t done anything, they had agreed to help her if Jayce tried to harm her.

Treating everyone was nothing for a little rich girl like Alice.

Of course, she didn’t forget to invite the staff of the 13th Bureau.

“Deputy Director Wenzel, could you please invite your colleagues? I’m treating everyone tonight. Let’s enjoy a good meal.” Alice had briefly interacted with Zoey and felt that Zoey was quite poor but a big eater.

This time, when she was in trouble, Zoey was the first to send someone to protect her family and even gave her hints on how to handle the situation.

Whether or not Zoey ended up helping, Alice owed her a favor.

Alice patted Luna and Erebus on the head, asking, “Kids, do you eat seafood?”

Though she smiled kindly and her tone was extremely gentle, to Luna and Erebus, it sounded like a threat: If you dare not to eat, then you’ll be eaten tonight!
