Invincible! This person has lived for a billion years - #432 - 432 Actually, this was a form of protection for William!

William was somewhat frustrated. The fan he had created didn’t work quite as he had anticipated. 

The magical runes engraved on it were like seasoning in cooking,different combinations produced varied effects. 

Surprisingly, the fan he had made could completely nullify a person’s abilities with just a flick, which he thought was a bit too extreme.

Back at his villa, William paid no heed to what transpired at the Emerald Lion Guild thereafter. 

He picked up a feather pen and, using ordinary ink, began to make alterations.

Had the gods of the mythological era witnessed William’s fan, they would have been astoundingly shocked. 

Imagine an artifact made from phoenix feathers, merely a man-made magical item, fairly ordinary in comparison. 

Yet, William’s fan could effortlessly erase divine powers. 

It was akin to reducing gods to mere mortals. 

Even beings with the strength of Thor, the god of thunder, or Ares, the god of war, would likely be powerless against a gentle wave of William’s fan.

However, William felt that the effect of this fan was too powerful.

If Odin knew of it, he might immediately offer his Gungnir spear and Draupnir ring, two divine artifacts, in exchange.

William locked himself in his room, working on the fan’s magical runes like a scientist engrossed in circuit diagrams. 

His knowledge of these runes, learned from the Soulmancers, was such that he wasn’t entirely sure of the combined effects of several runes. 

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have needed to test the fan at the Emerald Lion Guild.

The runes already etched on the fan were difficult to erase, so he kept adding new ones. He ended up inscribing thirty-six different spells on it.

“If only I had known, I would have just added one Crystal Torrent to suppress the fire attribute, and maybe a Skydance Vortex,” William mused, looking at the complex spells and furrowing his brow in contemplation about the potential effects of his creation.

“Ah well, it’s done now. I’ll just have to find someone else to test it on.”

This time, William used only one hundred feathers for the fan and kept another hundred aside. He effortlessly crafted another new fan. This one was simpler, combining just two spells: Crystal Torrent and Skydance Vortex.

When William returned to the Emerald Lion Guild, he had memorized the faces of the guild leaders present there. 

Strictly speaking, they have all already stood on the opposite side of William.

“That Aurelius plays with fire, and Luna’s feathers are fire-attribute too. Maybe using the fan won’t kill him,” William mused, holding a fan in each hand and preparing to head out again.

As he stepped out of his room, Luna’s gaze fixed on him because he was holding two fans made from her feathers. 

What was more infuriating was that William had turned both fans black.

What did that mean? 

Did he find her feather color unattractive? 

Were the fiery red feathers shimmering with golden light less appealing than this black hue? 

If a crow saw this, it would certainly look down on her.

Luna felt insulted by crows.

According to William’s aesthetic sense, it seemed as if he was saying crows were more attractive than her.

“Where are you going?” Luna asked, sitting on the sofa and munching on snacks, glaring at William.

“I’m going to test the fans,” William replied, raising an eyebrow.

Luna’s gaze shifted back and forth between the two fans in William’s hands, and finally, she said, “I’m coming too.”

“Alright, put on your shoes,” William said nonchalantly, not minding the company of the child, especially since the raw material for the fans came from her. 

It made sense for her to see the results.

“Servant! Are you coming?” Luna playfully kicked Erebus.

Erebus glanced cautiously at William. 

He couldn’t afford to be as impertinent with William as Luna was.

After exchanging looks with William, Erebus replied, “If you’re going, I’ll join.”

Erebus quickly put on his shoes, his face lighting up with a smile. 

For them, staying in that room was boring, especially since it lacked artifacts like those in Alice’s bedroom that could help them improve their strength levels.

William’s fans were obviously not ordinary, especially since the feathers were plucked by his own hands. 

They couldn’t miss seeing the effects.

“How should we test this fan?”

After stepping out, Luna curiously inquired. She had her pride,a fan made from her feathers ought to be a powerful magical artifact. She was keen to see its effects.

William had already locked onto Aurelius’s aura.

After leaving the Emerald Lion Guild, Aurelius, still shaken, went straight back to his own guild.

Even now, the thought of Garen’s sword strike made him tremble. 

Fortunately, Garen, remembering their past relationship, had spared his life.

But what about William?

How did he survive Garen’s most powerful attack? Could it be that Alice left William some kind of artifact before departing from the Prime World?

Aurelius knew of Alice’s extraordinary strength, even suspecting her to be a being far beyond the Quasi-Deity level.

If she had left something for William, it would undoubtedly be a treasure.

Possessing it might significantly boost his power.

But judging from William’s performance today, Aurelius doubted he could confront William alone.

At this time, the guild leaders who had dejectedly left the Emerald Lion Guild were gathering at the Crimson Phoenix Guild.

They wanted to know what exactly happened with Garen, and asking Aurelius seemed to be the best option, as he was the one who had survived Garen’s sword and left unscathed.

“Aurelius, what’s the deal with Garen? How did he suddenly become so strong?” a guild leader asked, voicing his confusion.

Aurelius shook his head and said, “That, I do not know. However, I suspect that young man William might possess some treasure left by Alice.”

“That’s possible, after all, Alice was quite fond of that William.”

“Aurelius, consider this possibility,” an old man with a goatee speculated, squinting his eyes. 

“Could it be that William gave Garen some artifact from Alice, which caused the sudden increase in Garen’s strength? And then Garen collaborated with him to put on a show, making people believe William is very powerful.”

“That would explain everything.”

“Hmm!” Upon hearing this analysis, Aurelius and the others couldn’t help but feel their hearts race.

Their current level of power was almost at its peak, making further breakthroughs highly unlikely.

Garen’s sudden surge in strength must have a reason, and it was most likely related to William!

With Alice having ascended to the Divine Realm, William needed a new backer. 

So, he approached Garen with an artifact and gave him one. 

Previously, Garen unleashed his strongest move, which created a huge commotion, but in reality, it didn’t possess the overwhelming power that everyone felt. 

Actually, this was a form of protection for William!
