Invincible! This person has lived for a billion years

Chapter 178 Used as a tool person

Upon hearing William's words, Wes Wenzel immediately grabbed the girl beside him, saying, "Director, don't be impulsive, he's just an ordinary person."

This young man was courting death, teasing the Director of their 13th Bureau?!

In the entire Soulmancer community, everyone who had witnessed the Director's power behaved cautiously around her.

Wes recalled the last time the Director disciplined Bryant, William was there too, wasn't he? Did he not know the meaning of fear?

"I won't hit him." The girl still stared at William, saying, "You are a Soulmancer!"

William replied, "I am not."

He really didn't consider himself a Soulmancer since he had never acquired power from souls, nor had he ever used Soulmancer methods to enhance his energy. In fact, becoming a Soulmancer is just a way for ordinary people to become stronger.

William had always been the strongest, why would he need to become a Soulmancer?

"You are!"

"If you say so."

Wes held his forehead with his hand, why did these two seem like children chatting?

Their Director was simple-minded and somewhat na?ve, why was this guy the same?

William couldn't be bothered to explain further, opened the door, and walked into the bookstore. After browsing around, he picked up "The Tale of Genji" and started reading.

He had plenty of time, but he realized that in this era, there were far more books than before, and so many interesting ones at that. Reading these books slowly would be enough for many years.

The girl, resting her hands on the table, stared at William with both eyes and said, "My name is Zoey Wenzel, what's your name?"

William slowly put down the book, lifted his head, and looked at her delicate face, saying, "A long time ago, I knew a little girl named Zoey, same name as you, but with a much better temper."

Zoey frowned and said, "Comparing me to a little girl?"

"Anyway, the level of immaturity is about the same."

Wes stood nervously by Zoey's side, genuinely fearing she might send William straight to the hospital with one punch.

Fortunately, Zoey only insisted seriously, "I am not immature at all."

"As long as I think the level of immaturity is about the same, it's fine." contemporary romance

Wes was not a man of many words, but listening to these two converse made him feel even more articulate…

Were these two five or six-year-old children?

Zoey fell silent for a moment, then said, "Join our 13th Bureau!"

William asked, "Aren't you guys the Manhattan Community Board?"

Wes couldn't take it anymore, saying, "Director, he really is not a Soulmancer."

Then he said to William, "Sorry, our Director has been reading too many fantasy novels lately."

"It's fine, if she likes reading, she can come to my place to buy some books." William didn't forget his job and took the opportunity to promote his business.

Wes was pulling Zoey towards the door, but she shook off his hand and threw a punch at William's face.

This is bad!

Wes couldn't imagine, with Zoey's strength, William's face would probably be severely damaged.

Broken nose and shattered cheekbones would be considered normal.

William didn't move at all, and Zoey's fist stopped just half a centimeter away from his nose.

The wind from the punch tousled William's hair.

Zoey's face was expressionless, saying, "You were sure I wouldn't land the punch, that's why you didn't dodge."

William smiled and said, "How much could a girl's punch hurt?"

The corner of Wes's mouth twitched severely, how much could a punch hurt?

Bryant would surely have something to say about that.

Those who hadn't been hit by Zoey probably thought that such a delicate girl wouldn't have much strength in her fist.

Those who had, definitely wouldn't want to experience the impact of her punch a second time.

"This punch, I won't stop, let's see if you can dodge!" Zoey slowly retracted her fist, and as she clenched it again, her long hair fluttered gently, powerful energy started circulating, and the light around her fist began to distort.

"Zoey! You forgot, our rule, Soulmancers cannot attack ordinary people, it's the principle of our 13th Bureau." Wes hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Zoey's wrist, saying nervously, "If you land this punch, not only will he die, this shop will probably be gone too."

Zoey seemed a bit angry, but she still restrained her energy and said, "I will prove that you are a Soulmancer. The girl who was with you yesterday is also a Soulmancer, when is she coming?"

William said, "She has some family matters, probably won't be coming for a few days."

Wes said to Zoey, "The girl you mentioned is the granddaughter of the world-renowned medical expert Charles Turner. Charles Turner passed away last night. Once his funeral is over in a few days, I'll contact her for registration."

Eventually, Zoey, pulled by Wes, refrained from further action. She met William's gaze at the door and said, "I will come for you again."

"You're always welcome. I'll treat you to a meal next time when I'm free." William replied, returning to his book.

"Tonight!" insisted Zoey.

William couldn't help but be taken aback. "Can't you tell? I was just being polite! Saying 'next time when I'm free' means I'm not free today, tomorrow, or the day after!"

Wes gritted his teeth. Somehow, he felt like punching this guy.

Teasing Zoey and testing her limits at the brink of danger, right?

"Tonight! At the BBQ grill outside the school's east gate!" Zoey didn't give William a chance to refuse and left with Wes.

After walking a few steps, Wes finally couldn't help but ask, "Sis, are you really sure he is a Soulmancer?"

Zoey nodded somewhat puzzledly, "He feels very familiar, as if I've seen him somewhere, but I'm sure I had never met him before yesterday. And another girl I saw last night…"

"You mean the girl from the Turner family?"

"No, another one. She isn't a Soulmancer, but she also feels very familiar, and she gives me a strange feeling." Zoey thought for a long time, unsure how to express herself.

Wes carefully recalled the other girl he had seen last night. Although he couldn't determine whether William was a Soulmancer, he knew that Zoey was not the type to bother people without reason. There must be a reason why she believes William is a Soulmancer.

All known Soulmancers are essentially registered with their 13th Bureau, and they adhere to a principle of registering every Soulmancer they encounter. They also usually issue a warning to prevent these Soulmancers from acting recklessly.

If William is a Soulmancer, what level has he reached?

"By the way, Sis, Bryant is a friend of Charles Turner. Now that Charles Turner has passed away, should we let him pay his respects and ask about the girl from the Turner family? We need to find out if Bryant has posed any threat to William." Wes suddenly felt that William, who seemed harmless, might not be trustworthy.

If William really is a Soulmancer, but pretends to be an ordinary person and even calls him to deal with Bryant, isn't he just using him as a tool person?
