<h4>Chapter 491 Killing you would be too easy </h4>


    William arrived at the volcanic crater where Alice had been practicing levitation and found that her condition today was significantly better.


    After yesterday''s practical experience, Alice had visibly changed, putting more effort into her special training to enhance her strength.


    When William arrived, she was attempting more borate aerial flips, a feat requiring immense courage for someone who feared heights.


    Isn''t improving one''s strength all about constantly surpassing oneself, oveing inner fears, and bing stronger?


    William had always thought Alicecked talent, even considering her somewhat foolish.


    But that depended on theparison.


    Mainly, she had beenzy before.


    After going through so much, she had started to change.


    William stood near the volcanic crater, and Lucien was nearby too.


    "What''s the matter? Still can''t get over my wife?" William appeared right next to Lucien.


    Lucien was taken aback upon seeing William.


    He hadn''t noticed when William had appeared beside him.


    "Alice is your wife now? Don''t think I don''t know you tricked mest time!" Lucien was not ready to give up, aware of William''s formidable power, but he insisted, "Unless you kill me, I won''t stop pursuing Alice."


    Williamughed, "Killing you would be too easy."


    This statement caused Lucien''s face to fluctuate between red and white.


    He had always been the pride of his family, the heir to the Nostredame family, and his personal strength was among the best of the younger generation of Soulmancers.


    Too easy to kill him?!


    Probably only William could say something like that.


    During the incident at Cozy Book Haven, Lucien had already felt William''s power; even now, he still felt the oppressive aura William exuded.


    "I know you''re strong, but you should know that justice will eventually triumph over evil, and you will die one day!" Lucien also had a system that marked William as a great demon lord.


    In Lucien''s eyes, being designated as a great demon lord by the system meant William must be a bloodstained executioner.


    Killing William would mean ridding the world of a great menace!


    "Justice will eventually triumph over evil?" Williamughed, "What is justice, and what is evil? I''m curious, how have I be the embodiment of evil?"


    Lucien also paused in surprise.


    Logically, those who harm the world are considered malevolent, but what exactly had William done to harm the world?


    "You don''t need to exin. Even though I don''t know what evil deeds you''vemitted, I''ll keep a close watch on you." Lucien simply believed that the system must be correct.


    Recently, he had also followed the system''s prompts to kill some people, all of whom were wicked to the core.


    Moreover, those were just minor tasks. As a great demon lord, William, with such immense power, must havemitted countless heinous acts.


    At that moment, the system in Lucien''s mind said, "William once ughtered billions of beings. If the host kills him, you will directly achieve Creator Deity-level strength."


    Billions of beings?


    Lucien was utterly shocked.


    Previously, the system had instructed him to kill William and identified William as a great demon lord, but it hadn''t informed him of William''s specific crimes.


    ughtering billions of beings - what does that imply?


    Destroying a whole world?


    At this point, William said, "Your system isn''t wrong. I did obliterate billions of lives. Are you nning to make a move against me?"


    "You can hear what the system says to me?" Lucien was utterly astounded that William could hear the system''s voice.


    This was outrageous.


    William spoke disdainfully, "Is it that hard? Just a broken system."


    "You can hear what the system says to me?"


    A broken system?


    Lucien hadpleted numerous tasks under the guidance of


    this system.


    Afterpleting these tasks, he received corresponding


    rewards, and now he had achieved Quasi-Deity-level strength.


    Advancing from an intermediate Soulmancer to a Demi-God


    level, and then to a Quasi-Deity level, a normal Soulmancer


    would typically need thousands of years.


    But with the system, his power soared incredibly. In just over a


    month, such breakthroughs were nothing short of miraculous.


    Even just basking in the sun would inexplicably boost his


    strength level.


    The power of the system was thus evident.


    It could be said that those who possessed the system were


    chosen ones.


    Yet William referred to it as just a broken system?


    How powerful must William be?


    "I heard you. Are you nning to kill me now?" William looked at


    Lucien with a smile.


    If Lucien said he intended to kill William, William wouldn''t mind


    eradicating him on the spot.


    He had given Lucien a chance before.


    Lucien frowned deeply and after a long silence, said, "I think if I


    tried, I would die."


    "I''m not your match yet." Lucien, as a Soulmancer who had


    started learning witchcraft and enhancing his body by soaking


    in herbal baths, had greatly increased his strength level. Yet, his


    intuition told him he was no match for William.


    William rolled his eyes and said, "Then you''d better leave now!"


    All this talk and no action, why was he still standing there?


    Lucien hesitated for a moment and asked, "You''re not going to


    kill me?"


    William couldn''t help butugh, "Do you want to die that badly?"


    "You''ll regret not killing me," Lucien said coldly, staring at


    William. "I will be your greatest enemy!"


    William responded indifferently, "To tell me such a thing before


    you''ve even be my greatest enemy clearly shows there''s


    a problem with your intelligence. I can''t be bothered to kill you!"


    Lucien solemnly said, "I think by saying this, you''ll actually not


    kill me!"


    "Then you''re quite clever!" Williamughed. "Now get out of


    here! If you''re still in my sight after ten seconds, you''re dead."


    After William spoke, Lucien immediately took off running and


    disappeared from sight.


    Was Lucien foolish?


    William didn''t think so.


    Or rather, Lucien''s intuition wasn''t wrong.


    He made a wise choice.


    William didn''t feel like taking action right now. He wanted to let


    things take their natural course.


    When there was only one of the hundred "Chosen Ones" left,


    the entity expelled from his body would most likely seek to


    reincarnate using that person''s body.


    But as for who would be thest one standing, and whether


    that person would still retain their own consciousness, William


    wasn''t too clear on that.


    Let Lucien develop slowly.


    It really wasn''t interesting to kill someone with such weak


    strength.


    Alice continued her intensive training at the volcanic crater


    until around 12 noon beforeing down from the air.


    William had noticed Alice''s progress. In just one day, she had


    significantly improved. In a month, she should be able to fly in


    the air proficiently and even engage in aerialbat.


    "How about that? Not bad, right?" Alice said with augh,


    hugging William''s arm as shended.


    She hoped William would praise her, as that would make her


    happier than anything else.


    "Not bad at all," William said, looking up at the sky. "You''re


    already so powerful. You should be able to protect yourself


    from now on."


    As he looked up, the states of three thousand parallel


    dimensions were all within his view.


    The copse of one parallel dimension the day before was just


    the beginning.
