Chapter 820 Women are emotional creatures
?”Ugh, you jerk! What the hell did you sprinkle on me?”
The little snake cursed and writhed within the steel net.
Many people think sulfur can harm snakes, but in reality, snakes fear sulfur mainly because of its pungent smell, which instinctively signals danger to them. However, having it sprinkled on them just makes them feel nauseous.
It’s like how a person would feel being doused in sewage—not highly damaging, but extremely insulting.
Jasper was momentarily stunned by the Astral Adder’s barrage of curses.
“Mr. Johnson, it’s been sprinkled with sulfur, why is it still so lively?” Jasper asked, puzzled.
William gave him a look, “Is sulfur poisonous? And when did you hear that sulfur could kill snakes?”
“Besides, now you’ll have to wash the snake meat several times more.”
“Ah, really?” Jasper always thought he was quite smart. After all, his strength wasn’t great, and if his brain wasn’t sharp either, he’d really struggle.
“This snake, you handle it yourself!” William didn’t want to get his hands dirty with sulfur, which also didn’t smell particularly pleasant.
Besides training, these students needed to learn how to fend for themselves, right? It wasn’t William’s job to be both their bodyguard and babysitter.
Even Alice didn’t get such treatment!
Oh, right!
He seemed to have a wife!
William suddenly remembered that he hadn’t called Alice in nearly five years.
Right!
Not even a single call in five years, let alone video calls or face-to-face meetings. William had been so engrossed in teaching and exploring culinary delights that he almost forgot he was married.
Calmly, William pulled out his phone and dialed Alice’s number.
Hmm, it was off, probably out of battery.
William’s divine sense swept through the Divine Realm,Alice was still being hunted!
A group of Nature Deities was chasing her, with some Shapeshifter lords lurking in the shadows. She had camouflaged her aura, dressed in dirty clothes, covered in mud, and leaning in a street corner under a tattered hat.
Passersby frowned and steered clear of her.
As for her phone…
She didn’t have one on her?
Nor in her storage bracelet.
That made sense, considering phones are fragile, and Alice faced formidable demons and Shapeshifter lords daily, any of whom could smash her phone in an instant.
As for Loki and the others…
They seemed to be in a bad spot, all captured by Hades.
Hmm? Why did Hades capture them?
William furrowed his brows, recalling that many forces in the Divine Realm had been ordered to make trouble for Alice.
Right!
He remembered now,it was because he wanted to surprise Alice, leading to a decree that got her hunted across the whole Divine Realm.
With Hades wielding the Archangel Amenadiel’s Seven Treasures Staff and the Spear of Apocalypse, dealing with Loki and his ilk was a breeze.
“Seems I might have made things a tad too difficult.” William felt he might have gone a bit overboard.
Alice had plenty of artifacts, but it depended on who she was up against.
Various Absolute Deity-level beings, powerful demons, and all the Shapeshifter lords,
Only high-ranking god-kings hadn’t made a move yet.
That Alice had managed to survive in the Divine Realm for five years, and still calmly hide out here undetected, was quite impressive.
“Seraphina, keep an eye on the kids for me, I need to step out for a bit.”
William decided it was time to see Alice.
They had been effectively living apart, with no contact for five years.
On Earth, if a couple went through this, they’d typically break up.
But William had no intention of abandoning Alice.
On this matter, he realized he was at fault.
Although he wasn’t one to devote much time to matters of the heart, it was indeed too much for Alice.
Seraphina didn’t know what William was up to.
“Mr. Johnson, rest assured, I guarantee they won’t die,” Seraphina said with a smile, “Of course, that’s just about not dying.”
William and she exchanged a glance: “Even if they die, it’s okay!”
This was said in front of Jasper and the others, leaving Jasper relatively calm, but the other kids turned pale with fear.
They had seen William let Jasper tackle the Astral Adder alone and felt anxious, knowing well how dangerous it was outside the base, where ferocious beasts reputedly ate children.
Mr. Johnson was entrusting their fate to a little girl.
In their eyes, Seraphina was just a girl about their age, barely in her teens.
Leaving them in Seraphina’s care seemed like a death sentence.
Without further explanation, William teleported from Earth to the Divine Realm.
With Seraphina and Amy there, those kids were in no real danger.
Facing an SSS-level Mutated creature, Amy could now take it head-on and even potentially slay it directly.
William appeared on the streets of Abyssal City in the Divine Realm, dressed in a white robe. He approached within 15 feet of Alice and called out, “Alice!”
At his shout, all the deities and Shapeshifter lords on the street turned to look his way.
Currently, Alice was the most infamous figure in the Divine Realm.
This woman topped the wanted lists of both the Divine Alliance and the Ultimate Force Alliance.
Capturing her would yield at least ten top-tier artifacts and millions of energy crystals.
Such a bounty was unprecedented since the birth of the Divine Realm.
Hearing the shout, Alice didn’t move but slightly turned her head to look at William.
How could she openly acknowledge her identity?
Who knew if she had really been spotted?
Alice planned to keep up her act, but as she turned her head, she saw a familiar figure.
No wonder the voice was so familiar.
“William!” Alice cried out, tears streaming down her face as she flung herself at him.
William stood still as Alice clung to him like a koala, her tears flowing freely as she sobbed, “Where have you been? My phone was destroyed! I thought you didn’t want me anymore!”
William had envisioned many possible scenarios for their reunion.
Alice might have become disheartened and ignored him.
Or she might have angrily called for a breakup.
After all, their relationship had started quite abruptly.
Women are emotional creatures, neglected for five years and constantly hunted during that time. What would her attitude be upon seeing him again?
He never expected Alice to react like this.
