Alice really found it hard to imagine just how foolish she must seem in William’s eyes, and frustratingly, she couldn’t even argue against it.
Sometimes in front of William, she even felt a bit silly herself.
She didn’t want to argue with William about this. Instead, she wondered what he would do next.
The reason William said he wouldn’t intervene in the future was entirely due to the sacred halo around Alice’s head,she was now under the protection of the Cosmic Entity.
He even thought about what interesting things might happen if he pushed Alice off a cliff.
Where was the need for protection in that case?
William chuckled to himself, then turned away, pulling out his phone to check on a novel he had been following.
There was an update.
He flipped to the latest chapter, only to find a line of text: “The author has gone to find the way to become a Soulmaner, this book is concluded.”
William opened another book, only to find the same situation.
“…”
These novel authors were all daydreaming!
Not focusing on writing novels, yet absurdly trying to find a way to become a Soulmancer?
William then tried to watch some videos, but every player was under maintenance.
Needless to say, those companies’ streamers had also resigned, each preparing to take part in tomorrow’s Guild apprentice selection tests.
William suddenly felt a bit gloomy.
Books finished and nothing to watch, and videos were unavailable.
The upcoming Guild tests for apprentices had triggered a whole chain of reactions. However, he believed this was only temporary.
Becoming a Soulmaner mainly depended on one’s talent and aptitude.
Even in the Middle Ages, when people were physically stronger, the number of those who could become Soulmaners was quite limited.
In today’s society, with such a large population, if even one in ten thousand people could become a Soulmaner, that would already be considered a high ratio.
Additionally, those Guilds would surely select apprentices carefully.
Even among those who could sense energy, not everyone would be accepted.
Thus, within a few days, those who find they cannot become Soulmaners will likely return to their original jobs.
“Master…” Alice called out to William in a soft voice.
“Hm?” William turned his head again and saw Alice completely wrapped up in the blanket, only her head sticking out, looking bashfully like a fluffy kitten.
With a blush on her face, Alice asked, “Aren’t you going to sleep?”
William replied seriously, “I don’t necessarily need to sleep.”
Sleep was just to adapt to the lifestyle of ordinary people. With infinite time at his disposal, sometimes he did find it boring not to sleep at night, like now.
Alice was momentarily stunned by his response. Hesitating for a moment and then summoning her courage, she bit her lip and said, “Could you… do that massage technique again?”
William asked with a smile, “Which massage technique?”
Alice was so shy she wished she could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
“Of course… of course, it’s about the method you mentioned last time to help me enlarge my chest,” Alice said, her eyes misting up.
She couldn’t believe she had the courage to say such a thing.
William smiled.
He wasn’t really against something happening between teacher and student, as he didn’t see such relationships as having strong ethical constraints.
He acted as he pleased, unconcerned with others’ opinions.
Previously, he was afraid that if anything happened between him and Alice, the Law of Cause and Effect she would have to bear would be too great, attracting the attention of the Cosmic Entity.
But now, with the sacred halo around Alice’s head marking her as a true chosen one, the Cosmic Entity wouldn’t trouble her.
William’s eyes narrowed slightly.
Despite being invincible, he was still a normal man, and it was hard to resist constant temptation without deliberately suppressing his desires.
“Well, I guess I’ll have to help you again,” said William as he slowly sat on the bed.
“Should we… turn off the lights?” Alice was incredibly shy.
“How can I give a massage with the lights off?” William maintained his serious demeanor.
Alice’s eyes reddened, and she clenched her fists tightly, overwhelmed with nervousness. .
William had clearly discerned Alice’s intentions, so he felt no need to hold back. Naturally, his actions were not going to stop now.
The atmosphere has been perfectly set up, everything is falling into place.
Seeing William about to make a move, Alice hastily said, “There are condoms in the drawer.”
“Condoms?” William was already too busy for that. What would he need condoms for at a time like this?
“You know…for protection.”
As he became intimate, William said, “No need.”
Over the years he had been with far too many women, yet not one had borne him a child.
Using modern science to explain, it means that offspring are a form of life continuation. The longer a creature’s lifespan, the more difficult it is for them to have offspring.
For beings like William, who are immortal and never age, there’s even less need for another form of life continuation.
So he had no use for contraception.
It was a very long night.
In that moment, Alice finally experienced the bittersweet entanglement of growth and pain that marks the passage to maturity.
Her Soulmancer physique underwent an exceptional tempering that endowed her with extraordinary resilience. This strength allowed her to withstand transformations and sensations that might overwhelm an ordinary person.
The next morning.
Alice’s bedroom was a mess.
“Master! You were so rough!”
“Still calling me master?” William asked with narrowed eyes. “Don’t tell me that turns you on more? How twisted.”
“You…you’re the twisted one!” Alice stammered. “Taking advantage of a young girl like me when you’re an old man.”
William just smiled without responding. Who was it again that did the seducing?
“And now you’re smiling about it?!” Although she had spent a passionate night with him, Alice still felt somewhat shy. Seeing William’s smile, how could he not understand what she meant?
He was clearly suggesting that she had tempted William into bed.
“I don’t care! Anyway, you took advantage of me.” Alice refused to admit that she had shamelessly taken the initiative to ask William for a massage.
“Yes, yes. It was all me. Hurry up and get ready, we still have tests today,” said William, standing up. “You don’t need me to help dress you too, right?”
“No! Turn around!” Gone was Alice’s coquettishness from last night when she had actively seduced William into bed.
William just kept staring at her with that perpetual smile.
“You… turn your head away!” Alice pouted, looking displeased.
William said indifferently, “It’s not like I haven’t seen it before.”
Alice, with her head down, asked, “Isn’t it… too small?”
William seriously replied, “Not really too small, just about right,” as he stretched out his hand to look at it.
Alice’s mouth twitched, wondering what he meant by looking at his hand.
Disregarding this, she stared at William and asked, “Be honest, do you prefer girls with bigger busts like Bella and Seraphina?”
William frowned and said, “I prefer adjusting the size myself.”
Alice’s face lit up with secretive joy. William’s words implied that he liked her, didn’t they?
Originally, she thought William was the kind of guy who couldn’t sweet-talk girls and was slow in matters of love.
Now, she realized that there probably aren’t any boys in the world who are slow in matters of love,it all comes down to whether they genuinely like someone or not.
