Chapter 108 express one’s love
Walker had no clue what he had just experienced, while Nelson was breaking out in cold sweat.
Has this young man really never witnessed William’s capabilities?
Back at Mr. Taylor’s courtyard, an entry-level Soulmancer master couldn’t even withstand a single move against William and was turned into a mist of blood. As for him, he had used the Arcane Society’s most powerful thunder magic, which didn’t cause any damage at all. The result was that he even accidentally summoned the soul of the grand magician Merlin.Also warned by the spirit of Merlin.
And he still dares to call William “cousin”?
After Walker withdrew his hand, William didn’t press the issue. He sat down, setting down his insulated food container, just waiting for Evelyn to arrive.
At that moment, William seemed like a stern old man, sitting there silently. The fried fish sticks inside his container were not just for anyone.
The atmosphere in the bookstore became tense. Nelson certainly didn’t dare to sit, and with him standing, Walker could only remain standing as well.
Alice, on the other hand, took a seat across from William, but she too fidgeted, refraining from making any unnecessary moves.
Time slowly passed. William took out a book and began to read, his other hand still resting on the food container. He covertly used a time spell to ensure the fish inside wouldn’t spoil from being kept warm too long.
When Evelyn walked in, she immediately felt the tense atmosphere.
Seeing her, William’s face lit up with a bit of a smile. Closing his book, he said, “You’re here? Let’s eat.”
After sitting down, Evelyn glanced cautiously at Nelson, then at Walker, and finally at the three sets of tableware on the table. She whispered, “Do we need more utensils? I can fetch a couple more.”
“No need, they’ve already eaten,” William responded as he opened the food container, adding, “Eat quickly; we’ll get back to work once the shop gets busier.”
“Oh!” Evelyn puffed her cheeks in understanding, grabbed a food box from the middle of the table, and began to eat.
For some reason, the way William spoke just now felt oddly familiar to her.
It reminded her of when she was a child and didn’t want to eat, how her grandfather would gently tap the table and say, “Darling, finish your food.”
The feeling was incredibly odd!
Despite being roughly the same age, William’s manner of speaking carried an aura of authority.
With Evelyn engrossed in her meal, William prompted, “Try the fish sticks!”
Evelyn carefully took a piece from the container, dipped it in ketchup, and took a gentle bite. “Is it good?” William sat beside her, not eating, but looking deeply into Evelyn’s eyes as he suddenly asked.
“Hm?” Evelyn looked up at William, somewhat surprised, her cheeks tinted with blush, “It’s delicious.”
“Eat more then!” William’s gaze never left her.
Evelyn bashfully looked down.
Alice, sitting across, nearly spat out her drink witnessing their interaction. “Is William… confessing his feelings?” she pondered. That look, that tone, all seemed like a confession, but something seemed amiss. “Is he trying to be her boyfriend or her guardian?” Alice chuckled to herself.
Evelyn wasn’t naive. With the strange mood in the bookstore and William’s calm, non-aggressive gaze, it all felt very familiar.
Yes, it was like the way her grandfather looked at her when she obediently ate as a child.
His eyes held a touch of fondness, warmth, and gentleness that wasn’t off-putting.
Seeing others eating, Nelson could only stroll between the bookshelves, casually pulling out a book to read.
The aromatic scent of fried fish sticks wafted from the insulated box. Although Walker is a Soulmancer, he’s still a novice, only slightly more advanced than an average person. Unable to resist the allure of delicious food, he felt envious watching others indulge. Since Nelson hadn’t taken a seat, Walker, not wanting to go against the apparent protocol, chose to stand by Nelson’s side, feigning interest in a book.
Evelyn’s eyes shimmered with a hint of shyness. Her delicate nose stood straight, and her luscious, rosy lips took a bite of the crispy exterior and soft interior of the fish. She kept her head low, savoring the delicacy without making a sound.
Alice sneakily glanced at William, realizing he was wholly engrossed in observing Evelyn. It seemed as though she was the only person in his world. Throughout dinner, Alice felt like a third wheel, as William’s attention was entirely captured by Evelyn. Could this be the so-called “breathtaking beauty?” After this meal, Alice became certain that William held special feelings for Evelyn. A kind of pure affection without any ulterior motive, as if he wished to guard her forever.
After eating, Alice voluntarily stood up to clear the table. Evelyn wanted to help, but Alice gently shook her head, indicating it wasn’t necessary. Considering Evelyn might become William’s significant other in the future, it would be impolite to let her do the cleaning. Even though William was amiable most of the time, he could be intimidating when angry.
“Master, shall we go out for a bite?” Walker couldn’t stand it anymore. With William neglecting his guests this way, if it wasn’t for Nelson’s influence, he would’ve given William a piece of his mind.
Nelson exhaled heavily. While Walker pretended to read, wasn’t he himself also just pretending?
“You, go out! I have some matters to discuss with William,” Nelson was unsure of how to address William. Perhaps it would be respectful to call him ‘Master,’ but it was evident William interacted as a regular person. Not wanting to expose William’s true identity, Nelson decided to send Walker away to speak privately.
“Huh?” Walker was momentarily taken aback. He glanced towards William and chuckled quietly, “Master, to discipline a youngster, why would you need to intervene? Just tell me how you want him dealt with, and I’ll handle him!” Check new 𝒏ovel ch𝒂pters at nov𝒆lbin(.)com
Nelson’s heart skipped a beat. Discipline William?
Has Walker lost his mind?
“You don’t need to concern yourself with this. Also, be careful with your tone when you speak to him!” Nelson has always been a fairly easy-going person. He was well-aware of William’s capabilities, and while Walker was young, he also had significant prowess. Nelson warned him primarily because he feared that Walker might inadvertently offend William.
Recall the Soulmancer who met his end at the Taylor family mansion! He was instantly turned into a mist of blood…
William wasn’t the type who always treaded lightly. He was more of a person who acted based on his emotions. “I understand. I’ll leave now,” Without adding anything more, Walker directly left. Seeing a high-level Soulmancer like Nelson showing such respect for William, did he aspire to become William’s mentor? Did Nelson intend to teach William magic?
Walker exited the bookstore, scoffing internally. In his opinion, given William’s age, what difference would a good mentor make? Once Nelson realized the young lad didn’t possess exceptional Soulmancer talents, he’d naturally lose interest in him.
Walker was extremely confident in his Soulmancer talents, having reached the level of a novice Soulmancer at such a young age. He believed that given some opportunities, he could ascend to the level of an advanced Soulmancer.
But how could he know that he’d already missed the greatest opportunity of his life? If he had become friends with William, perhaps his journey as a Soulmancer might have taken a revolutionary turn.
