?”I wonder how Loki and Bob are doing now?”
Alice was somewhat worried about her disciples. They had spent five years together, enduring hardships. Even if they weren’t just master and disciple, they were at least friends. It was impossible not to worry.
“Are you worried about them?” William asked softly.
At this moment, Alice was still clinging to William like a monkey, unwilling to let go as if fearing he would leave her again.
“You have no idea what kind of powerful people I’ve encountered during the days you weren’t here!” Alice murmured into William’s ear.
She then shared the experiences of the past five years and the amusing incidents that occurred with her disciples.
“I thought Loki and the others were strong, but there are always stronger people in this world. Just a few days ago, a black wind swept through, and before I could even see anyone, Loki and the others were gone.”
“I don’t even know what powerful figure captured them!”
“I heard they wanted to eat Jesus’ flesh,I hope he hasn’t been eaten already.”
…
Alice seemed to have opened a floodgate, chattering nonstop into William’s ear.
William didn’t find it annoying,suddenly, he felt that having someone talk about these trivial matters was quite nice.
“There will always be someone stronger!! That’s a correct view,” William said. “But Loki and the others are doing very well, so well that you might want to hit them when you see them.”
“Huh? Why would I want to hit them if they’re doing well?” Alice genuinely couldn’t understand why she would want to hit Loki and the others if they were faring well.
“You’ll see in a moment.”
William, keeping Alice in suspense, carried her to the gates of Hades’ palace.
The guards at the palace gate were confused by their arrival. What did he mean by arriving at the gates of Lord Hades’ palace while embracing a woman?
“How dare you show affection in front of Hades’ palace?!” The two guards drew their spears and pointed them at William and Alice.
William didn’t bother explaining,he simply teleported with Alice directly inside the palace.
At that moment, Hades was sitting at the center of the great hall, while Loki and the others were seated around him.
Each person had a table filled with food in front of them.
The ancient frost dragon Eirik took up a lot of space and even enjoyed a massage from a woman, reveling in the service.
Jesus had a pile of delicious dishes in front of him.
Fine wine and food, there was no one more comfortable than him.
Seeing this scene, Alice’s eyes widened, and she jumped down from William’s arms, her fists clenched as she stared at Loki and the others.
She had been worried that Loki and the others were dead or tortured, but now it seemed they were living the good life.
Here she was, alone and hunted, always worrying about her disciples and how to rescue them.
But what about them?
Alice looked at Loki’s face, stormed up to him, and seeing the table filled with various meats and fruits, her anger flared.
“Loki, is the roasted chicken leg tasty?” Alice couldn’t help but ask.
Loki looked terrified and tried to explain something, gesturing with his hands, but ultimately, he said nothing.
At that moment, Bob was actually lying in a corner, sound asleep.
The snoring was almost deafening to Alice.
She went over and kicked the fat man awake.
“Fatso! Wake up, it’s time to eat pork knuckles!”
During the five years in the Divine Realm, Alice felt she had a good relationship with these disciples, considering them her best friends.
Although they often bickered and fought, she now felt truly angry, feeling as if their relationships were fake, all a deception.
“Master, you’re here?” Bob lazily shifted his body, turned his head to look at Alice, and asked calmly.
“Weren’t you captured? Do you look like someone who’s been captured?” Alice was angry, previously puzzled about who could have captured such powerful individuals. Now, it seemed more like someone had invited them here as guests.
“We were captured,” Bob said, nodding towards Hades. “It was this Lord of the Underworld who captured us, and we couldn’t leave even if we wanted to.”
Hades had already stood up and walked down from his throne upon seeing William, bowing repeatedly. “Master, you’ve arrived.”
William waved his hand, “Stand up.”
Hades smiled broadly and nodded at Alice, greeting her, “Miss Alice, hello.”
Alice was truly baffled this time.
Why was the Lord of the Underworld addressing her so respectfully?
What was going on?
Was this person also a disciple of William?
Seeing Alice seemed a bit upset, Hades quickly explained, “Miss Alice, I was just showing a few friends my palace, please don’t be angry.”
“I didn’t mean to capture them.”
“We’re all friends here, inviting friends over can’t be considered capturing them, can it?”
Now that William had canceled the order to kill Alice, they no longer needed to trouble her.
So, Hades thought it best to get on good terms with Miss Alice, definitely not to offend her.
Alice frowned at Hades, “You call sweeping them away with a black wind inviting them over?”
Hades chuckled, “Miss Alice, please don’t take offense. You are a person of high status with many responsibilities,naturally, I couldn’t just invite you in the same way. As for the others, I thought having them over for a couple of days wouldn’t be a big deal.”
Alice was at a loss for words,it seemed no one had said Loki and the others were captured.
It was just Hades’ actions that had led Alice to believe they were captured.
William noticed Alice was upset.
“Hades, come here,” William called.
Hades approached, puzzled but obedient.
“Lean your head forward.”
Hades did as instructed.
When he was close enough, William smacked him on the head.
Hades winced in pain but quickly understood why William had hit him.
After all, William hadn’t really used much force,otherwise, his head would have been gone.
“So you think you’re clever! Who told you to capture them?”
William felt he owed Alice, and now that she was upset at Hades’ place, he naturally wanted to stand up for his wife.
It was just a matter of letting off some steam, not really about killing Hades,as long as Alice was happy, that was what mattered.
Hades quickly grasped the situation and hurriedly apologized to Alice, “Miss Alice, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have brought them here without permission.”
He didn’t mention that this was an idea he had after William issued the order,he took the blame willingly, as long as Alice was happy.
