“Make him pay with his life?”
Alice looked at Emerald Sage Steel with a gaze akin to someone observing a person with an intellectual disability.
A man who called her Master, seemed powerful but apparently lacked real skill, was actually demanding William’s life?
Wasn’t this just seeking trouble deliberately?
Garen frowned slightly, saying, “Of course! If you kill someone, you must pay the price! In the world of Soulmancers, it’s only right to pay with your life!”
Although this woman before him was extraordinarily strong, someone of her caliber shouldn’t be protecting a novice Soulmancer.
After all, in Garen’s eyes, the strength of a novice Soulmancer was no different from that of an ant. Alice, being even stronger, should care even less about someone else’s life.
“I don’t care about your demand for his life. I came here today to fight you.” Alice didn’t want to bother with the details. William had called her over to fight, and as for this man wanting William to pay with his life, as long as he had the ability to enforce it, she would let him be.
“So, you mean… you’re standing up for him, Master?” Garen gritted his teeth and asked, “Just a novice Soulmancer, what does the Master see in him?”
As the two talked, everyone around them was completely baffled.
The Guild Master of Emerald Lion calling Alice ‘Master’?
And Alice acting so arrogantly, could she really be some hidden expert?
“I like him… he’s handsome!” Alice didn’t want to waste words, “Since you’re calling me Master, I’ll let you make the first move!” Saying so, the Sword of Soulbreaker transformed into a wooden sword and landed in her hand, held at an angle behind her. 𝓁𝘪𝘣𝘳ℯ𝒶𝘥.𝘤𝑜𝓂
“…” Garen, also holding his divine sword, watched Alice cautiously. 𝓁𝘪𝑏𝓇𝑒𝑎𝑑.𝑐𝘰𝑚
Flaws!
All flaws!
Although the energy emanating from Alice was pure, the way she stood there, her whole body seemed full of openings.
Two voices echoed in Garen Steel’s heart.
The first voice told him that he could kill this woman with a single stroke of his sword.
The second voice warned him not to draw his sword, for if he did, he would surely die!
How could such a situation arise?
Garen, as a fearless warrior who had never hesitated to draw his sword against any formidable opponent, found himself shaking internally in just a short moment.
Alice stood there, looking somewhat impatiently at Garen.
She simply regarded Garen as someone who appeared strong but lacked real skill, and didn’t take him seriously at all.
How formidable could someone be who called her Master upon meeting?
He’s even starting to sweat on his forehead.
Tsk tsk!
He looked like a master when he was flying in the air just now, but it turns out he’s all show and no substance. It looks like she could solve this in one move!
“Are you going to draw your sword or not?” Alice rubbed her temples with some irritation, not understanding what her master was thinking, calling her all this way to fight such a rookie…
Huh?
Something’s off!
A glimmer of realization flashed in Alice’s eyes.
Could it be…
Letting her fight this battle is just an excuse, and the real reason her master called her was that he missed her?
Hehehe!
Alice was certain now. William must have missed her but was just too shy to say it.
Thinking this, Alice couldn’t help but curve her lips into a small smile.
A girl’s face often uncontrollably reveals her thoughts on such matters, after all, Alice wasn’t like William, who could keep everything hidden inside.
Her smile only increased the pressure on Garen, who was standing opposite her.
His hand holding the sword even trembled uncontrollably for a moment.
That smile…
If I draw my sword, I fear I might fall here today!
But if he couldn’t even draw his sword against a strong opponent, then this woman would forever become his nightmare, a shadow in his heart.
What should he decide?
Garen clenched his teeth. After ascending to Demi-God level strength, in theory, he shouldn’t fear anyone anymore.
But…
Now he found himself unable to use even a trace of his secret sword technique.
Draw the sword!
A look of resignation flashed in Garen’s eyes. Even if it meant death, he should draw his sword!
Even if he couldn’t gather a shred of energy, he must draw his sword.
Garen raised his hand and thrust his sword forward.
This thrust had no energy concentration at all, let alone unleashing any secret sword technique.
But a Demi-God level warrior’s speed was so fast that Alice couldn’t see his movement.
Just a moment ago, Garen was standing 30 feet away, and before Alice could react, Garen’s sword had already thrust past her neck, half an inch away.
Gulp!
Garen swallowed hard,?quickly retreated several feet, bowed to Alice, and said anxiously and fearfully, “Master, I have offended you. Regarding today’s matter, our Emerald Lion Guild will no longer pursue it. Please forgive us.”
Alice still didn’t understand what had happened. Just now…
Did he come close to her?
She hadn’t even seen Garen draw his sword. She only saw him suddenly appear in front of her, bowing, and then asking for her forgiveness…
“Aren’t you going to fight anymore?” Alice was a bit puzzled. She hadn’t even made a move yet and wasn’t sure if William would be satisfied with her performance.
There seemed to be no performance at all.
Garen sheathed his sword, hanging his head, and said, “No more fighting! Thank you for your mercy in not killing me.”
Alice’s mouth twitched slightly, wondering what she had actually done.
It seemed her strength had reached a level where she could win without fighting.
Or perhaps, she now possessed the demeanor of a ruler, her mere presence forcing enemies to bow in submission!
“If you’re not fighting, then forget it!” Alice said, putting away the Sword of Soulbreaker, and then walked over to William, whispering, “How was that? My performance just now wasn’t bad, right?”
“It was okay, I guess.” William could hardly stop himself from rolling his eyes.
It seemed this Demi-God level guy had been scared out of his wits.
It wasn’t really his fault, after all, with Alice holding the Sword of Soulbreaker, no sword in the world could pierce her.
Garen had finally mustered the courage to thrust his sword, only for the divine sword in his hand to veer off course inexplicably.
With Alice looking calm and composed, doing nothing, she was naturally perceived by Garen as an unparalleled warrior.
With even his sword out of his control, in Garen’s mind, Alice’s strength had reached an unimaginable level.
“Master… then may I take my leave?” Garen even hesitated to leave without permission, standing at a distance and asking for consent.
Alice waved her hand, saying, “Bye! Actually, the way you were flying in the air just now was quite impressive.”
“…” Garen felt as if an arrow had struck his heart. Impressive in flying?
That was just mocking! After Alice’s appearance, he couldn’t even manage to fly, which truly defined a real powerhouse!
Garen gave Alice and William a deep look. This novice Soulmancer was incredibly lucky to have won the favor of such an extraordinary powerhouse with just a handsome face.
He didn’t dare to stay longer, leading the Emerald Lion Guild members to leave dejectedly.
Since Alice’s arrival, all the Soulmancers who had been flying had fallen to the ground, but they still thought it was Garen’s doing.
