Chapter 169 I am not a Soulmancer.Chapter 169 I am not a Soulmancer.
What exactly had happened?
Travis's pupils suddenly dilated, finding the situation unbelievable.
Alice's ability level was definitely not on par with his, but the moment he reached out his hand, he felt something was amiss.
It wasn't just his hand that couldn't move; his entire body was immobilized, frozen in place as if an invisible giant hand tightly gripped him.
Alice still held a painting, but this didn't hinder her actions.
Her initial punch was dodged by Travis. She initially thought she had met her match, but in the next moment, Travis stood there like a wooden figure.
Alice indeed hadn't faced off with a Soulmancer before, but she had been a free-style fighting expert, so she was no slouch.
Travis was tightly restrained by William, and Alice was like facing a motionless punching bag. After a dodged punch, she followed up with a knee strike.
"Ugh!" Travis uttered a muffled groan.
"Take that, you pervert!"
Alice shouted, showing no mercy with her hands, a flurry of blows followed, quickly knocking Travis to the ground. Throughout this, she still held the painting, but it didn't affect her at all; she enjoyed giving a beating.
Travis was at a loss for words, himself, a mid-level Soulmancer, was beaten without the ability to fight back, and the key issue was he didn't know where the problem lay.
After three minutes of one-sided abuse, Travis lay on the ground like a dead dog, aside from dodging initially, he never had a chance to retaliate.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Ha! So this is a Soulmancer?" Alice kicked Travis in the waist, walked to William's side, lightly brushed the stray hair from her forehead, and disdainfully said, "I think I can take on ten like him."
Travis, though not beaten to death, nearly spat blood at this comment.
When the fight began, he could confirm that Alice was just a newly advanced mid-level Soulmancer, unlike him who had adapted to the mid-level Soulmancer status.
If the energy within him could function normally, he could subdue Alice in one move, after all, there would be a significant difference in actual combat between them.
William slowly walked to Travis and said, "From now on, you'll be her sparring partner."
As he finished speaking, Travis already felt the energy within his body returning to normal.
"Sparring partner?!" A glint of ruthlessness flashed in Travis's eyes, and he abruptly rose, clawing towards William's throat.
William didn't move an inch, and Travis's hand stopped an inch from William's throat.
"If you wish to die, I can oblige you," William said, slightly frowning. Travis's body was already floating in mid-air, unable to move.
Only then did he realize that this seemingly ordinary person in his eyes was actually the most terrifying existence.
Could it be that his inability to move earlier was all because William was helping from the shadows?
"I… Please don't kill me!" Travis's eyes were filled with fear. There was a time when he thought that as a mid-level Soulmancer, as long as he wasn't targeted by that woman from the 13th Bureau, he could do as he pleased.
Now he realized, he was wrong!
Very, very wrong!
In front of William, let alone laying a hand, just a mere glance from him made Travis unable to budge.
If William truly wanted to kill him, probably just a look would suffice.
It should be known that he is a mid-level Soulmancer, even if not invincible in this world, he definitely wasn't one to be easily bullied.
"I said, you'll be her sparring partner from now on."
William also identified a problem, merely teaching Alice methods to enhance her abilities was certainly not enough.
Alice lacked combat experience, and he was too lazy to spar with her, so having Travis act as the punching bag was more than perfect.
"Okay, no problem! Whatever you say."
Travis had already felt his life was threatened, if he didn't agree, William would most likely erase him. At this point, let alone sparring with Alice, even if told to act like a dog, he would immediately crawl and bark.
Only then did William let him go.
Travis fell from mid-air, unable to steady himself, lying on the ground like a pile of mud, not to mention his clothes, even his underwear was wet.
Since he started Soulmancer training, no one had ever exerted such immense pressure on him.
"Don't think about running," William said, "If you run, even if you hide at the ends of the earth, I will still kill you. If you don't believe me, you can try."
"I wouldn't dare!" Travis struggled to stand up, his whole body trembling, he didn't dare to doubt William's words.
"Leave your number with her, and be on call whenever needed," William said to Alice, "Alice, take note of his number, have him spar with you in the future."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAlice looked at Travis with disdain, "Someone like him, so lewd, so weak, I don't want him as a sparring partner."
"Then we might as well erase him."
As William raised his hand, a terrified Travis, who had just managed to stand up, immediately knelt down again, "Don't erase me, I may be a bit weak, but even a piece of tissue, a pair of underwear has its own use. As long as you don't erase me, I'll do whatever you ask."
Although Alice looked down on Travis, hearing William mention erasing him made her wonder what he meant by "erase". Could it make him disappear?
Still, Alice couldn't help but say, "Maybe let's not, he might be a bit despicable, but he should still have some use."
"Then you decide," William said, "He has long become a mid-level Soulmancer. If you had really fought just now, you definitely wouldn't have been his match.
What I mean is, you should engage in more real combat with him in the future, or have him stand still and let you hit him, a mid-level Soulmancer isn't that easy to kill."
The corner of Travis's mouth twitched severely, damn, so he was indeed only of a bit of use.
As a human punching bag?
"Mid-level Soulmancer?" Alice sized up Travis and asked William, "What about me then?"
William responded, "You've just reached the level of mid-level Soulmancer, your proficiency is a bit lower than his."
"So, a mid-level Soulmancer isn't much use either." Alice glanced at Travis and shook her head disdainfully, "Looks like I can challenge higher levels."
Although Alice didn't play online games, she did watch web series, where the protagonists often challenged higher-level enemies. Clearly, she saw herself as one of those protagonists.
Annoyed, William said, "You have no combat experience, and you're thinking of challenging higher levels. If I hadn't sealed his ability to move with my mind just now, how could you have been his match?"
"Oh? So, he is quite powerful." Alice found it a bit hard to believe that the despicable guy she had just been freely pounding was actually stronger than her.
Travis felt like crying. If he hadn't encountered a freak like William, wouldn't it have been easy for him to deal with someone who had just become a mid-level Soulmancer and had no combat experience?
Curious, Alice couldn't help but ask William, "Master, what level of Soulmancer are you?"
William replied indifferently, "I am not a Soulmancer."
