Chapter 770 Ranked tenth was Evelyn
?”No need for a formal welcome,” William said with a smile. “I’m just here to teach. As for the classes, I’ll leave the scheduling to Vice Principal Garen.”
Garen completely ignored the other teachers in the office and chuckled, “Mr. Johnson, you jest. Just let me know when and how many classes you’d like to teach.”
The teachers in the office were at a loss for words.
Since when had Garen become so humble?
Garen?
William Johnson?
Suddenly, someone recalled a rumor.
It was said that Garen had an unspeakable relationship with someone named William from the 13th Bureau.
To put it bluntly, a Brokeback Mountain scenario!
A chilling thought indeed!
And looking at Mr. Johnson, he did seem exceptionally handsome.
Piecing together another rumor about a William who had recently arrived at the Arcane Village base and had a conflict with Hugo, it all started to make sense!
This William Johnson must be the man from the rumors.
Given Samuel’s character, he normally wouldn’t randomly place someone in the school.
But if it was for Garen’s sake, then it naturally made sense.
As the president of the Emerald Lion Guild, Garen was a formidable force. In the current situation, the Emerald Lion Guild was also a crucial military asset. If giving Garen’s old flame a nominal position could secure Garen’s loyalty, then why not?
William was unaware of the complex thoughts brewing in the teachers’ minds. He simply stated, “Vice Principal Garen, I’m just here to teach. I’ll follow whatever arrangements the leadership makes.”
Garen gradually calmed down and assured, “Mr. Johnson, don’t worry, I will make sure everything is arranged properly.”
Garen held the appointed position of vice principal at the school, but he also had to manage affairs related to his Guild and couldn’t always be at the school.
Just yesterday, he was at the Emerald Lion Guild when he received news that a powerful Mutated creature had infiltrated the Arcane Village base and needed support, prompting him to rush to the base to await further instructions.
Now, it seemed, what use was there for worrying about a powerful Mutated creature sneaking in?
With Mr. Johnson here, what trouble could any Mutated creature possibly cause?
William was simply looking for something to do and wasn’t seeking any special treatment. Garen’s current behavior made him somewhat uncomfortable.
It was like those school beauties—who really likes a sycophant?
Although the comparison might not be perfect, the principle was the same.
Over the years, too many people had tried to ingratiate themselves with William.
Garen initially wanted to chat with William, but sensing William’s disinterest from his tone, he could only offer a smile and say, “Then, Mr. Johnson, I’ll get busy arranging your schedule and setting up a private classroom for you.”
Garen’s demeanor when speaking to William was extremely respectful.
It wasn’t that he was afraid of William,rather, he was filled with admiration and gratitude towards him.
Garen admired William’s swordsmanship, and it was also under William’s guidance that he had achieved his current success.
So it seemed only natural to Garen that he should show respect in his actions and words towards William.
Garen placed his hands in front, bowed to William, and then stepped back.
The teachers in the office had their eyes wider than one another.
Garen, who had lived for several thousand years, found such a gesture quite ordinary in ancient times.
But to the modern people watching, such a formal gesture was hard to accept,a bow!!!
In response to Garen’s bow, William simply nodded and said, “Thank you for the trouble.”
William, however, was more in tune with the times,in this era, bowing seemed a bit too formal.
Many Soulmancers were like this,they lived long lives, spending much of their time focused on enhancing their own powers. They believed that the old customs were polite and proper, not seeing them as overly complicated.
After Garen left, the teachers looked at William with even more complexity in their eyes.
Their thoughts were similar,they didn’t want too much interaction with someone like William from the rumors.
While they didn’t oppose homosexuality, normal men didn’t want to have too much to do with homosexuals,they simply found it hard to accept.
The teachers’ attitude towards William was a bit strange, but William didn’t mind. He already had his own desk, and he trusted that Garen would handle his employment and class schedule properly.
With nothing else to do, he greeted Dexter and started wandering around the school.
The school’s infrastructure was still quite good. Despite the presence of Mutated creatures outside, inside the base, it looked almost no different from before the apocalypse.
At least the students seemed to be doing well.
This was, perhaps, a fragile semblance of peace.
Humanity had realized that defeating the Mutated creatures and restoring peace from the past would be a long-term battle. They couldn’t let the next generation of young people constantly live in an “apocalyptic panic.”
Preparing for war was inevitable, but nurturing the next generation needed to be a gradual process.
Unbeknownst to William, in just a short while, the top ten powerhouses of humanity had gathered at the base.
However, they didn’t seek out Samuel but were scattered in various corners.
A person transformed from a powerful Mutated creature?
How strong could they be?
These powerhouses continued to observe within the base.
It wasn’t until Samuel sent a message stating that the Mutated creature was William that many were shocked.
Ares, the president of the Pantheon Guild and humanity’s strongest, was stunned.
Mr. Johnson was transformed from a Mutated creature?
It seemed not entirely impossible…
He had previously worked as a chef in William’s home, where two Shapeshifter lords from another world resided. But even if Mr. Johnson really was transformed from a Mutated creature, it seemed there was no reason to attack him.
He also pondered a question: even if the top ten on the leaderboard joined forces, could they really defeat Mr. Johnson?
Thinking back to the time he had interacted with William…
His intuition told him that they probably couldn’t win!
Ten people joining forces might just get wiped out in seconds!
He couldn’t understand what Samuel was thinking, planning to make a move against Mr. Johnson.
Was he tired of living?
Among the top ten humans, a few knew William personally, and ranked tenth was Evelyn.
She was a ruthless person, initially loyal to Hades, then stripped of her superpowers by William, and five years ago became a disciple of Moros. Relying on her tenacious character, she enhanced her strength to the extreme through witchcraft and even mastered the power of spatial laws. Now, she had reached the tenth position among humans, even surpassing Amy.
If Amy was considered a “pay-to-win player,” then Evelyn was the epitome of a strong comeback through sheer hard work and determination.
The price she paid and the hardships she endured were beyond what ordinary people could comprehend.
When she learned that William was transformed from a Mutated creature, her expression also became complex…
