“Tell me, you weren’t trying to get me killed just now, were you?”
Alice entered William’s bedroom and immediately started to complain.
Delmar’s strike was terrifying, and William had abandoned her at the crucial moment.
Wasn’t this deliberately putting her in mortal danger?
William opened his mouth, intending to tell her that it was for her own good, that only in life-threatening situations could her potential be unleashed… .
But the relationship advice videos and books he had recently seen made him think that such an explanation wouldn’t be very effective.
William’s lips twitched, and he looked at Alice, held her face, and kissed her directly.
These were taught by some streamers on video platforms.
When a woman is angry, don’t explain, just kiss her. That’s the end of it.
If a kiss doesn’t work…
William’s hands began to wander, “I’ll give you a breast enhancement massage.”
“Huh?” Alice’s eyes widened, her breathing quickened, her voice barely audible, “It’s broad daylight… and there are people outside…” 𝘪𝑎.𝘤𝑜𝘮
“They can’t hear us.” William waved his hand, and the sound in his room was completely isolated, ensuring that nothing could be heard from the outside.
…
In the living room, Luna and Erebus were leisurely eating snacks and watching anime, thoroughly enjoying their days.
They had adapted to their new life over this period.
To them, all the fighting and killing seemed pointless. Wasn’t this comfortable life much better?
In places like the Divine Realm and the void of the underworld, they had to be constantly vigilant, always on edge, guarding against the god-kings and other Shapeshifter lords.
Being with William, aside from the worry of being turned into a meal, there seemed to be little else to worry about.
Ares, trying to build a rapport with the two children, glanced towards William’s bedroom and said, “Mr. Johnson and Alice have been in there for a while now, I wonder what they’re doing.”
Luna gave him a sidelong glance, “If you’re so curious, why don’t you go and check?”
Ares gave a sheepish smile: “Better not. I don’t know if Alice got hurt in that battle just now. Maybe Mr. Johnson is treating her injuries.”
As they were speaking, Moros also knocked on the door. After Ares opened it, Moros entered and immediately asked, “Is Mr. Johnson here?”
Luna and Erebus, who inherently disliked Moros due to being from opposing factions, weren’t thrilled.
“Mr. Johnson is in his room. You can go call him,” Luna said, secretly hoping Moros would anger William. She wanted to see who was stronger, Moros or William. But judging by Moros’s attitude towards William, it wasn’t hard to guess.
Luna was full of malice, thinking that if Moros angered William, it would likely end badly for him.
Moros gave Luna a deep look, then glanced towards William’s bedroom. He simply sat down on the sofa, not foolish enough to disturb them. “Is Alice in there too?” he asked.
Ares replied, “I think Alice might have been injured. Mr. Johnson is probably treating her right now.”
“Treatment?” Moros narrowed his eyes slightly. Alice hadn’t appeared injured just now. If that was the case, what William and Alice were doing in the room might not be about healing.
Moros smirked subtly but remained silent.
Despite the many years Luna and Erebus had lived, according to their race’s standards, they were still not of age and naturally didn’t understand certain things between men and women.
As for Ares, he seemed rather oblivious, not worth bothering with.
Moros didn’t say anything, just started eating the snacks on the table by himself.
Seeing that Moros wasn’t taking the bait, Luna also ignored him and continued with her own activities.
After more than an hour, William, with his arm around Alice, asked, “Do you still think I was trying to kill you?”
Alice’s face flushed, and she pinched him hard, huffing, “Weren’t you trying to kill me?”
“Not really!” William of course knew what she was referring to, but he had been careful to control his strength just now.
“Can you be gentler next time?”
Alice said this with a slight frown.
William apparently still had a lot to learn about being tender and considerate.
“So, are you ready to get out of bed?” William was already preparing to get up.
Alice pursed her lips and shook her head, “I want to sleep a bit longer.”
“Then you rest well.” William had just carefully examined the divine halo hovering above Alice’s head.
The halo had some level of consciousness, albeit weak, and it had already acknowledged Alice as its master. Unless Alice died and her soul dissipated, it would not easily change allegiance.
During Alice’s battle with Delmar, the purple glow in her eyes was the divine halo’s reaction to sensing Alice’s life in danger, immediately protecting its master.
Of course, if William insisted on removing it, there was nothing it could do.
Upon leaving the bedroom, Moros greeted William with a smile, “Mr. Johnson, is that detestable Poseidon dead?”
William shook his head, “He’s not dead. He’s at your place.”
“Ah? He dares to go back?” Moros was enraged. Poseidon was bold indeed!
William said, “I sent him back.”
“Oh.” Moros’s anger instantly subsided, and he weakly asked, “So, can I kill him?”
“No!” William replied. “He’s an old friend of mine, and if you two keep fighting, what will happen when his true form descends into this world? Another battle?”
“I’ll fight if I have to! Am I supposed to be afraid of him?” Moros, reminded of how Delmar had fooled him recently, couldn’t help but get angry.
William coldly said, “It’s not about whether you’re afraid of him. With your way of fighting, you’d destroy the entire Earth in less than a day!”
“It’s not that serious. We could just go to space to fight, right?” Moros was afraid of William but couldn’t swallow his pride.
Poseidon had deceived him terribly.
“If you fight on other planets, I won’t interfere. But if you brawl illegally on Earth and harm innocents…” William gave Moros a cold look, causing him to shiver.
William wasn’t positioning himself as Earth’s guardian,he just didn’t want these beings to disrupt his comfortable life. Their fighting could demolish countless buildings, disrupt cell signals, paralyze traffic, and destroy various delicacies, turning the world into a desolate and boring primitive state.
“Right, right! I’ll take him out now, okay?” Moros’s eyes lit up. If he used his spatial powers to take Delmar into the cosmos, couldn’t he kill him however he wanted?
William frowned. Didn’t this guy understand what he was saying?
Moros could easily kill Delmar, but if he did, wouldn’t Poseidon seek revenge on him?
Seeing William frown, Moros quickly added, “I only need three seconds to kill him. When that despicable Poseidon comes to this world, I’ll challenge him to a battle outside… Or I can teleport Delmar to outer space and kill him there. That should be okay, right?”
William thought for a moment, his expression complex, and smiled, “If you hadn’t told me and just taken him out to kill him, I wouldn’t have said anything. But do you know I’m now a public official of the 13th Bureau, and I’m in charge of these matters?”
