Chapter 495 Dear, he's insinuating that you're foolish

William had already noticed the three newcomers.

The young man leading them, Gavin, had previously caused trouble for William at the Cozy Book Haven. Walker had stepped in to help, and ultimately, with Zoey's forceful intervention, Gavin had apologized to both William and Walker.

This incident had occurred nearly two months ago, and since then, Gavin had been studying at the Soulmancer Academy.

Crucially, Gavin was also a "Chosen One." In these two months, his strength had improved dramatically.

He gained some renown in the academy and was ranked alongside Lucien and Evelyn as one of the three great prodigies of the academy.

Lucien and Evelyn were already studying witchcraft under Moros, and other Soulmancer organizations didn't have the capability to compete with Moros for these two talents.

This left Gavin as the highly sought-after prize among the major Soulmancer organizations.

With exceptional talent and huge potential, and already possessing a foundation in Soulmancy, it was inevitable that Gavin would become a rising star in the Soulmancer world.

"Gavin?" Seeing Gavin, Walker frowned and asked, "What are you up to?"

The first time Walker clashed with Gavin, William had taught him the basic Celestial Blade Art, and he had almost completely overwhelmed Gavin. If it hadn't been for Zoey's arrival, Gavin might have died that day.

However, in their more recent encounters, despite Walker's grasp of a bit of Celestial Blade Art and learning witchcraft, he had been defeated both times.

In the Soulmancer Academy, such regular sparring was normal, and even Moros wouldn't coddle his students. If his disciples were defeated, it was no big deal.

But now, Gavin's appearance here clearly indicated he was looking for trouble.

Gavin's gaze swept over William's table, finally ignoring Walker and focusing on Alice.

He approached with a smile and greeted, "Alice, what a coincidence to see you here dining as well."

A coincidence? Again?

Do these guys call every encounter a coincidence?

Alice retorted, "We don't know each other, so there's no question of it being a coincidence or not!"

While Gavin might be on par with Evelyn and Lucien in the Soulmancer Academy, he was far behind compared to Alice.

Alice was renowned, almost revered as a goddess in the Soulmancer community, with rumors even suggesting she was the reincarnation of a real goddess. Gavin, who dared to confront Walker, didn't dare to misbehave in front of Alice. Thɪs chapter is updated by N(o)vᴇl(ꜰ)ire.nᴇt

"Alice, there's no need to be so distant. I just wanted to get acquainted with you," Gavin said, glancing coldly at William. "Don't you think someone like William, a worthless nobody, is unworthy of you?"

"..."

Alice was speechless. Worthless nobody?!

Was he asking for trouble?

Actively seeking his own demise?

"Who the hell are you calling worthless?" Walker slammed the table and stood up, pointing at Gavin's nose and shouted, "If you're so brave, let's settle this outside, one-on-one!"

"I was talking about William. What's it to you, a defeated loser? Haven't I beaten you enough already?" Gavin smirked coldly.

His two lackeys burst into loud laughter.

"Can't remember who was the one with his face trampled under Gavin's foot last time."

"That guy must have been an idiot!"

"That idiot's name was also Walker, wasn't it? Same name as

the guy here?"

"Oh? Really? Could it be someone else with the same name?

What a coincidence!"

Gavin's lackeys taunted with a sneering tone, and Walker was

already fuming.

He had come to dine here to impress Bella.

He had just boasted in front of Bella about how formidable he

was, earnestly advising William on how to improve his strength,

and promising to stand up for William if someone bullied him.

And now this happened.

Not only did Gavin insult William as worthless, but he also

seemed to be competing with William for his girlfriend, and

saying these things in front of Bella was like humiliating Walker

himself.

"Let's settle this outside, right now!" Walker, grinding his teeth,

pointed at Gavin, "Today, it's either you or me!"

"Fine! If Soulmancers want a duel to the death, just sign a duel

contract! That's the new policy from the 13th Bureau. I've

already signed it. If you have the guts, sign it!" Gavin pulled out

a paper from his pocket and threw it on the table, his lackeys

quickly placing a pen on the table as well.

Walker was about to pick up the pen to sign, but William took it

instead.

Walker looked at William, puzzled, and said, "Give me the pen! I'll

fight him!"

"Wait!" William, with his arm around Alice's slender waist and a

genial smile on his face, addressed Gavin, "Just a friendly

warning for you: if you leave now, there's still time. Otherwise, if

my wife gets angry, you might end up dying a miserable death."

A pseudo "Chosen One" like him was easy to kill, but what

William really wanted to see was whether a real Chosen One like

Alice fighting this fake Chosen One would cause any

intervention from a Cosmic Entity.

William's words left Gavin and his lackeys speechless.

What the hell, a friendly warning!

Gavin felt he had successfully drawn their anger.

He had always treated Alice with respect, knowing he couldn't

beat her.

His main purpose in saying these things was to provoke Walker.

Seeing Walker about to sign the duel contract and seal his fate,

William's interference and saying such things was utterly

shameless.

"Alice, I mean no offense to you," Gavin said, still aware of his

limits when it came to Alice. "This is a matter between me and

Walker. I hope you won't interfere. And can't you see? William,

this good-for-nothing, has always been flaunting your

strength, a typical shameless lowlife. Surely someone of your

discernment can see through his character."

Gavin's tone became increasingly agitated as he spoke.

Before Alice could respond, William took the pen from the table

and signed Alice's name on the duel contract, saying to her,

"Dear, he's implying you have poor judgment."

"Saying I'm worthless, I don't mind, but to say such a gentle and

virtuous girl lacks discernment, unable to distinguish good from

bad – young man, you seem to be questioning her intelligence."

After signing, William placed the contract on the table, his smile

unwavering, and looked at Gavin, "There, it's signed. Let's go

outside and settle this!"

"Damn it! How shameless can you be? Such obvious

instigation, do you think Alice can't hear it?!" Gavin clenched his

fists, no longer interested in fighting Walker. He wanted to

brutally beat William's face.

To disfigure him!

To see if Alice would still like this man who only knows how to

hide behind a woman once he's ugly.

William's eyebrows raised slowly, and he said seriously, "Dear,

he's insinuating that you're foolish."

"..." Gavin gritted his teeth in hatred. All his sarcasm seemed

weak in front of William, making Gavin seriously question if

William's success with Alice was not only due to his good looks

but also his skill in conversation.
