Chapter 445 No need to thank me.445 No need to thank me.
William, engrossed with the flame swirling around his fingers, noticed that within the fire, there was a hint of power from a Cosmic Entity.
The power of the Cosmic Entity and his own power had merged perfectly within this Eternal Starfire, making it potentially terrifying.
Alice slowly exhaled and then opened her eyes, only to see William playing with a ball of fire in his hand. The night was deep, and the red flame, intermixed with strands of golden and blue light, looked more dazzling than fireworks, illuminating William's face.
"Master, where's my coffee?" Alice, having just emerged from her meditative state, was unaware of how long she had been at the cliff bottom and thought only a day had passed. She was secretly pleased that William had kept his promise.
William extinguished the flame between his fingers and handed her half a cup of coffee, asking, "Do you need ice in it? The previous ice cubes have melted."
"No, no ice!"
Last time William added ice, and it all turned into icy chunks. Remembering that, Alice dared not ask for more ice.
Alice took the coffee and immediately pouted, "Why is there only half left?"
"I thought you wouldn't wake up, so I drank it." For William, this was a normal situation, as even though he was powerful,he didn't know when exactly Alice would wake up from her meditative state.
For some Soulmaners, a thousand years could pass in the blink of an eye.
Alice waking up so quickly was relatively fast.
"Why would you think I wouldn't wake up?" Alice was almost infuriated by his ambiguous statement.
William simply replied, "Just as the words imply."
Alice took a sip of coffee and suddenly remembered the fireball in William's hand, asking, "Was that fire released by me?"
William, instead of answering, retorted, "Do you think I'd be so bored as to play with fire for no reason?"
Alice, accustomed to William's tone, didn't take offense but instead remarked, "That fire I released doesn't seem all that great. I saw you blow it out easily."
"It's indeed not that impressive, good enough for alchemy and roasting meat, I suppose." William didn't elaborate on the true power of Alice's fire, which he himself wasn't completely sure of.

Moreover, it's certain that it will cause some degree of harm to a Soulmancer's soul, which goes without saying.
"That's fine; you're not helping me roast meat anyway." Alice quickly finished her coffee and summoned the Olympian Star-Patterned Alchemical Furnace from the Olympian Emerald-Golden Glow Bracelet given to her by Astraeus, preparing to begin her alchemical practices.
"You're going to do alchemy now, then I'll head back," William said, making his way to leave.
Alice glared at him, "Aren't you going to watch me do alchemy? What if the furnace explodes again?"
William raised an eyebrow, "It's not like it hasn't exploded before."
Alice: "…"
Indeed, William still had a way with words.
Alice was anxious, "Aren't you worried it might explode again?"
William ruffled her hair and said, "No worries. If it explodes, I'll just buy you a new one."
Now that Alice is bolstered with Cosmic Entity's power and surrounded by a divine halo, she's not that easy to injure.
And the furnace? If it explodes, it explodes. Just get a new one.
"Buy a new one?"
Alice's mouth fell open slightly, marveling at where William's focus lay.
Shouldn't William be concerned about whether she gets hurt from an exploding furnace?
Clearly, his concern was only for the furnace itself...
And he only mentioned buying a new one, not making her one.
"Go away! I don't love you anymore." Alice looked up and gave him a disdainful glance. Does a pat on the head work?
It's useless!
Such an insensitive man!
See, you've noticed!
I'm angry now, aren't you going to try to appease me?!
"Oh, then take your time with your alchemy, I'm going to sleep," William said, and to her surprise, he vanished into thin air.
Alice couldn't help but laugh and cry at the same time.
She was wrong!
She really was wrong!
She had actually fantasized that William would coax her.
William left as he said, instantly leaving her alone in the dark cliff bottom.
Sleep was certainly not an option now. If she didn't find something to do, Alice would feel even worse.
And she really did want to leave this place soon.
Alice wasn't truly angry, though. After calming down, she started to seriously study alchemy.
The books on alchemy William taught her were from the era of the gods, extremely complex in both controlling flames and manipulating magic circles.
Alice began searching for alchemical materials at the base of the cliff.
After preparations, she embarked on her journey of alchemy…
William didn't really go back to sleep.
He thought for a moment,Alice's current flames would surely cause the furnace to explode.
William, having studied architecture, knew how to mine without collapsing the entire mountain.

Could the Pantheon Guild's furnace withstand her Eternal Starfire?
Even producing a single pill would be impressive.
"It looks like I'll have to make an alchemical furnace myself," thought William. His consciousness swept across this newly emerged parallel dimension, quickly arriving at the base of the Pantheon Guild's current headquarters.
The Pantheon Guild had indeed chosen an excellent location for their new base, built atop a mine.
This was a Golden Magic Sand Mine.
Golden Magic Sand was a rare mineral even during the time of the gods. The forge of the Olympian craftsman Hephaestus and William's own Celestial Furnace were made from this material.
Its melting point was extremely high, and without any magical circle enhancement, it should withstand Alice's Eternal Starfire.
Looking at today's world, this was probably the only Golden Magic Sand Mine left, so finding another mining spot wasn't feasible for William.
Not wanting to be too conspicuous, William hesitated for a moment, then put on a black mask and, under the cover of night, bypassed the Pantheon Guild's magical barriers and arrived at the foot of the mine.
He observed the mine and realized that to make an alchemical furnace, he would need to excavate half of it and then refine the Golden Magic Sand.
Hmm, digging out half, wouldn't that cause the mountain to collapse?
It wasn't right to just drive away the Guild residing above.
William, having studied architecture, knew how to mine without collapsing the entire mountain.
"Since I'm here, might as well build you an underground city, no need to thank me."
William smiled, placed his palm on the mine, and a huge cave appeared. The minerals inside rapidly diminished, forming various tunnels and rooms. He was essentially creating an underground city structure.
He didn't need to swing a pickaxe for mining, unless he was bored and wanted to dig a little each day...
The inside of the cave visibly transformed into a vast underground city.
However, the members of the Pantheon Guild atop the mountain clearly felt the tremors.
With William nearly hollowing out the mountain, how could those living on it not notice?
