Chapter 787 Divine Constitution
??"Modest!" The girl giggled, standing up and not forgetting to introduce herself, "Mr. Johnson, my name is Emma Steel."
After saying this, she also left the ssroom.
Her name didn''t quite match her Gothic makeup, but William could tell that if the girl changed her outfit, she would probably look quite attractive.
However, he wouldn''t say these things. Speaking such thoughts to a girl infatuated with him could easily lead to misunderstandings.
The kid in the back row nced at William, and seeing that he hadn''t left, remained seated, looking timid.
It seemed he wanted to wait for William to leave before he himself would go.
William smiled. This kid was really timid, but surprisingly, he possessed a rare Divine Constitution.
People with such a constitution, if they became Soulmancers, could advance their strength much faster than ordinary people.
In the past, the Soulmancermunity often ranked people''s constitutions, with Divine Constitution being the top tier. It was rumored that such individuals had the potential to be gods, but they also needed a massive amount of resources to elevate their power levels.
Typical Soulmancer organizationscked the resources to nurture disciples with a Divine Constitution.
Wondering why this kid was so timid, William was about to leave when a middle-aged man in a robe rushed in, gave William a nod, and then shouted at the boy, "Ss, what do you mean by noting to ss?"
Ss, William noted the name.
This kid''s constitution was simr to Zoey''s Warrior God Constitution, except he hadn''t had the good fortune like Zoey, who was found and then nurtured by the sea god Poseidon.
The teacher who had just burst in was of a mid-level Soulmancer''s strength, which, in this era, wasn''t considered weak but certainly wasn''t strong either.
It seemed he was an independent Soulmancer practitioner. If he belonged to a Guild, he would surely have rmended Ss to the Guild rather than teaching him alone.
He should know that with such a constitution, he wasn''t capable of teaching the boy properly.
Hmm?
William took a closer look at the middle-aged man. A practitioner of dark forces?
Interesting!
It wasn''t that William had a prejudice against practitioners of dark forces,rather, most who wielded such powers tended to forge their own paths and didn''t follow conventional routes. Moreover, this teacher had concealed his use of dark forces very well. If William didn''t have a unique eye for people, another Soulmancer might not have noticed it at all.
William simply nodded at the middle-aged man as a greeting and then walked out of the ssroom.
"Mr. Johnson..."
The little boy whispered from a corner.
William heard him, but he didn''t turn around.
From Ss''s voice, he detected a hint of panic and fear, and a plea for help.
"Switch bodies, to take over his Divine Constitution?" William could easily guess what the middle-aged man was nning.
If he had been kind to Ss, there was no reason for the boy to be so timid. Given his talent, he should have been confident. And then there was that voice,den with desperation...
Normally, this wouldn''t be William''s concern, but now he was a teacher!
And since Ss had attended one of his sses, that made him his student.
Although not a direct disciple, what is a teacher''s role?
Besides imparting knowledge and wisdom, educating students, and addressing their doubts, it also includes ensuring that his students are not bullied!
That was just the kind of person William was!
The middle-aged man, named Damien, had been at the Arcane Vige base for some time. With his mid-level Soulmancer abilities, getting a job as a teacher was easy.
And Ss was someone he had brought into the base, publicly iming him as his disciple.
The base was notcking in other powerful Soulmancers, and naturally, some recognized Ss''s extraordinary constitution.
But since Damien had already dered Ss as his disciple, otherrge Soulmancer guilds naturally wouldn''tpete with him for the boy. As for other independent practitioners or smaller guilds, they couldn''t afford to nurture a talent like Ss.
After William left, Damien approached Ss, his expression turning cold, and said in a low voice, "Who told you toe here? You are my disciple, do you need to listen to these worthless teachers?"
Ss kept his mouth tightly shut and slowly stood up, trembling all over.
"Stop shaking! If others think I''m mistreating you, I''ll just double your training when we get back!" Damien said with a cruel smile on his lips. The kid in front of him was indeed a genius, but what of it?
A genius who hadn''t yet matured was still easily manipted by him.
He just had to wait until Ss grew up, and then that Divine Constitution would be his!
Hearing Damien''s words, Ss tensed up, clenched his teeth, and had no choice but to follow Damien out of the ssroom.
As Damien led Ss by the hand down the corridor, his face immediately took on a friendly appearance, while Ss remained stiff, following Damien like a marite.
After returning to his office, William began organizing data on mutated creatures and nts, preparing topile them into a book.
It wasn''t until school was dismissed that William left his office.
At this time, Garen was still near Mount Olympus waiting for Ilias to make a move.
As the sky darkened, Damien led Ss out of the school, and William slowly made his way to the school gate.
Seraphina had also arrived at Arcane Vige and had been waiting at the school gate for some time. Seeing William, she called out, "Mr. Johnson."
"I have something to take care of, find yourself a ce to rest," William replied.
"What is it? Can''t Ie with you?" Seraphina was quite familiar with William by now. Although she had given up pursuing him romantically, she felt that just being able to live alongside Mr. Johnson was quite enough.
At her level of strength, she had a long life ahead, and liking someone didn''t necessarily mean needing a romantic rtionship. Just being in the same space for a long time made her feel happy.
"Coming along is fine." William had already decided to follow Damien and see for himself. If Damien was indeed mistreating Ss, he was prepared to teach Damien a lesson.
This was why William often took on various professions.
Once he chose a professional identity, he could find connections with the world,otherwise, living in an invincible manner was just too lonely.
Bing a teacher, he had his responsibilities and obligations, and people who were connected to him. This way, his actions didn''t feel like meddling, and his life felt more fulfilling and meaningful.
As a teacher at the school, Damien naturally had his own residence within the base. He led Ss into the dormitory outside the school, greeting acquaintances with a smile along the way.
But once he entered the house, it was as if he put on a different mask, his expression turning dark and frightening.
After Ss entered the house, his whole demeanor seemed to dete, listlessly crawling into a corner and into an oak barrel, his head following suit.
"Ha!" Even without entering, William could see the situation inside the room. So that was how Damien treated his disciple.
