Invincible! This person has lived for a billion years - #384 - 384 Not very powerful.

“Master!Master,Master…”

Timothy Hill had returned to normal. He gazed deeply at William, then extended his hands, his eyes trembling with emotion.

He had lived a life of kindness, so careful in his daily life that he even feared harming insects while sweeping. Yet today, he had committed such heinous acts of violence.

For a benevolent old man, this was an invisible and profound blow.

“Hmph! Master? Kid, don’t try to fool me with your tricks.” Vinumbrae, the drunken soul, revealed his rotten teeth, feigning composure. He couldn’t see through William’s strength, but in his view, even if William was at the Quasi-Deity level, Vinumbrae believed he could still escape.

William took another step forward. The corpses and blood on the ground transformed into tiny red lights that gradually disappeared into the air.

Even the clothes of Timothy Hill and the 13th Bureau agent were cleaned, appearing spotless.

With just one glance from William, Vinumbrae felt as if his heart was struck by a massive hammer.

“Spurt!”

Vinumbrae spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning pale and ghastly.

Impossible!

Vinumbrae’s eyes were filled with shock and fear. The power of the man before him was surely comparable to those divine kings in the Divine Realm!

“Escape!” Vinumbrae’s hands formed a magical array, turning himself into a cloud of black smoke, attempting to flee.

William raised an eyebrow, and the black smoke came right in front of him.

Vinumbrae’s technique was a secret art from the netherworld, similar in concept to teleportation, turning his body into molecular structure to escape danger before reassembling.

This sort of secret art might have allowed him to escape from others, but in front of William…

William stretched out his hand, capturing all the black smoke in his palm, which then condensed into a black dot. Closing his fist, the black dot was completely annihilated.

Normally, a soul like Vinumbrae from the netherworld would return its power to the one who gave it upon death. But William was not in a good mood and had no intention of letting him return.

By the time Zoey and the others arrived, Timothy Hill had already passed away.

The original mansion was leveled to the ground, with Timothy Hill’s grave standing there.

Engraved on the tombstone were the words — “The Grave of Old Friend Timothy Hill.”

“How could such a large mansion suddenly disappear?” People from the 13th Bureau who arrived later couldn’t comprehend what they had witnessed that day.

Steven stared at the inscription on the tombstone, finding the handwriting strangely familiar.

It was unmistakably written by the same hand that inscribed the stone tablet at Mount San Juan Teotihuaca.

William had been here!!

Steven bowed before the grave and then said, “Let’s go! Let’s spread the news of Mr. Hill’s passing. From now on, no Guild is allowed to establish itself on Mount San Juan Teotihuaca, and no one is permitted to build houses here.”

The 13th Bureau of the past might not have had the authority to make such a declaration, but the current 13th Bureau certainly had the power to do so.

No Guild was allowed to set up on Mount San Juan Teotihuaca, and construction of houses was prohibited!

This was a form of respect for Timothy Hill, and equally, a gesture of respect to William.

Unbeknownst to anyone, the old mansion hadn’t disappeared; William had simply moved it underground.

Right beneath Timothy Hill’s tombstone!

William wasn’t saddened or distressed by Timothy Hill’s death.

After all, he had come to view life and death with a sense of detachment.

The chaos wrought by “that thing” he had expelled from his body wasn’t something he planned to annihilate in one fell swoop. He decided to let it develop for a while.

After all, it had been a long time since someone capable of taking even one of his strikes had appeared.

Moreover, with such novel entities surfacing, it seemed rather dull to destroy them outright.

William didn’t actively pursue the souls that escaped the netherworld and were empowered by “that thing.” Otherwise, Luna and Erebus, who were with Alice, would have likely been eradicated by now.

Having done everything, William returned home, resuming his usual routine of reading his books.

Alice only came back around 11 p.m., carrying a large bag full of alchemical materials.

“Why did you bring all this here?” William asked. “Isn’t the alchemy furnace at your house?”

“I brought it to show you, to see if I picked the wrong materials!” Alice hadn’t realized the alchemy furnace was at her house.

She simply wanted to come over to William’s place.

Even just chatting with him would be fine.

The reason she had the furnace delivered to her house was to avoid exposing William’s identity.

Now she was considering whether she should move the alchemy furnace to William’s house.

William said, “Using the wrong materials or steps can cause the furnace to explode! Don’t bother moving the furnace here; my small courtyard doesn’t have space for it!”

“Uh… Master, do you know what I’m trying to say?” Alice seriously wondered if William had used some sort of mind-reading magic on her.

Wouldn’t that mean she had no secrets from William?

“I haven’t reached the point of using mind-reading spells on you. Are your little thoughts that hard to guess?” William smiled and added, “Also, be careful when practicing alchemy at home. Those two kids at your place are not simple. If they find out how weak you are, it might end badly for you.”

“Ah?!” Alice didn’t quite understand William’s meaning. “You mean Luna and Erebus, those two kids?”

William’s eyes narrowed slightly as he replied, “Who else would it be?”

Alice fell silent for a moment before finally asking, “Are they that powerful?”

After thinking for a moment, William said, “Not very powerful, I guess.”

“Phew—” Alice exhaled deeply and said, “Master, you know, scaring people can actually scare them to death.”

It was then that William mentioned, “That girl could probably kill Garen with a single slap.”

“…” At that moment, Alice began to understand what William meant by ‘not very powerful.’

After all, Garen was a Demi-God level powerhouse!

“If I really anger Alice, I’m sure I’d just get instantly killed,” Alice thought to herself.

Now William was telling her that the little girl could kill Garen with a slap?

Such a dangerous kid was living in her house, and she had no idea.

Moreover, she had even forced the two kids to take baths before.

What if they got upset, or if Alice’s bathing skills weren’t up to par? Could she be killed on the spot?

“I don’t want to go back! It’s too terrifying!” Although Alice had been pretending to be a super-powerful being lately, she knew very well that she was just a weakling.

What’s more, she had never used alchemy to make anything, and William said a mistake could cause an explosion!

Thinking about the huge alchemy furnace, if it exploded, could she end up disfigured?

And if she used a Common level alchemy furnace to practice alchemy at home, and Luna really was as powerful as William said, wouldn’t she instantly see through Alice’s true strength?

Once those two devil-like characters found out she wasn’t the powerful figure she pretended to be…

William laughed, “Do you think you can just stay here and not leave?”

“I’ll just stay here and not leave!” Alice, on the verge of tears, said, “Unless you come back with me! And once we go back, you have to bring those two little ones to live with you here.”

William replied, “I don’t have space here either!” After a pause, he continued, “Fine, I’ll go back with you, but those two kids must stay at your place. How you deal with them is up to you!”
