Invincible! This person has lived for a billion years

Chapter 365 Just for fun!

Hearing William's phone conversation, Zach truly began to panic.

"Damn it, is this kid setting me up?"

He couldn't understand why William would target him.

"Maria, do you believe me?" Zach decided not to waste words with William and focused his attention on Maria.

As long as Maria trusted him, everything would be fine.

"I certainly trust you," Maria smiled.

Just as Zach was about to relax, Maria added, "Just explain things clearly when Samantha and Lily arrive."

"I..." Zach really didn't think such a situation could be clarified.

If William was determined to mess with him, even taking the matter to the police might not clear it up.

The atmosphere gradually became awkward, but William chatted calmly with Maria.

"William, when did you start getting involved in these kinds of things?"

Maria felt indebted to William and saw him as a younger brother, so she was surprised to find him involved in such dubious activities, especially concerning students from school.

William answered unflinchingly, "Some students are financially struggling. Without the help of philanthropists like Mr. Edwards, they might not be able to complete their studies. I'm just trying to help them out."

This sounded like an excuse a client caught by the police might make, claiming he only saw a girl looking helpless and cold in a dark alley, so he took her to eat some bananas and sausages, then gave her some money, all out of kindness.

Just as a police officer wouldn't easily believe such a story, most people hearing William's explanation would dismiss it.

However, in Maria's eyes, William had always been a good kid.

Especially since she remembered that just a month ago, William had come to New York from the countryside.

At that time, William barely knew how to use a cellphone, so in her view, he seemed like a very simple and pure young man.

Handsome too, he could easily have been deceived by girls at school.

"William, don't just believe everything you hear. You should know that the prettier the girl, the more likely she is to deceive," Maria frowned and earnestly advised, "In this day and age, if they can afford to attend college, they're generally not that impoverished. Besides, if they are financially needy, schools usually provide assistance. With a bit of part-time work, they shouldn't have to resort to such things."

"Oh, I see," William said, appearing to have an epiphany.

Zach's left eyebrow twitched, and his mouth opened slightly in utter shock.

What's happening?

Why would Maria believe such nonsense?

If William was involved in such matters, then his image in Maria's eyes should definitely be tarnished.

Yet, it was clear that Maria seemed to think William had been deceived.

"Maria, who is this young man to you?" Zach finally couldn't hold back anymore, noting Maria's apparent differential treatment.

Maria slightly lifted her eyelids and smiled, "He's my brother."

So that's how it is!

Zach's face lit up with more smiles and said to William, "Since you are Maria's brother, let's not beat around the bush. You must also understand that I never actually said anything about supporting female students. There must be some misunderstanding. I genuinely like your sister, and there's no need for you to target me like this."

William blinked and said, "So, you're pursuing Maria?"

He paused and then said to Maria, "Maria, I was just talking nonsense. Mr. Edwards never said he wanted to support any female students."

Maria's brows slightly furrowed, "What exactly is going on, William?"

"He's innocent. There's no Samantha or Lily, it was all made up by me," William clarified.

Zach finally breathed a sigh of relief, realizing this young man wasn't as bad as he thought.

"Why?" Maria stared into William's eyes, asking, "Then how do you know him?"

William, taken aback, asked Zach, "How do we know each other?"

"Ah?" Zach was genuinely stupefied.

It felt like something was off, but he couldn't pinpoint what it was.

William spoke to Zach with a serious face, "I was just trying to explain for you..."

Zach was struggling to contain his anger, his patience pushed to its limit.

How did the situation here become so bad?

William inwardly gloated, retreating as a way of advancing, chuckling to himself. He thought, young man, you want to play mind games with me? Do you realize that even a military genius like Alexander the Great is just a student in front of me?

Initially, Maria didn't quite believe that Zach would be the kind to support female students. She even thought it might be a misunderstanding.

But now, she started to have doubts.

Before Zach could explain, two girls dressed in Lolita fashion walked over.

"William!" the girl on the left greeted William with a wave.

William glanced at them and then quickly turned away, smiling, "They must have mistaken me for someone else."

Maria's face darkened. Her ears weren't deaf. Could it really be such a coincidence that there were other people named William in this restaurant?

And just as two young girls arrived?

"William, is it really good for me that you're hiding this for him?"Maria bit her lip, almost unable to hold back the urge to leave, but she restrained herself.

She had seen all sorts of situations,if anyone was to leave, it should be Zach!

She could afford the bill!

"Sorry!" William sighed and said to Zach, "Mr. Edwards, you might as well admit it. After all, you have plenty of money, and you can find any kind of woman you want. Since they're here, you can discuss the price yourselves."

Zach was sure now that William had set him up and he had fallen into the trap. And William was still shoveling dirt to bury him.

"What should I admit?" Zach was red in the face with anger, staring at William with murderous intent in his eyes.

"Mr. Edwards, we meet again. Would you like to be our Benefactor?" The two girls walked up to the table, holding hands, one of them looking tenderly at Zach.

"Get lost!" Zach barked, unable to hold back his Soulmaster energy.

William simply looked at him, rendering all his abilities useless, stripping him of his talent and the powerful black mystical energy.

Zach's face turned pale and ghastly. He felt something draining from his body and couldn't summon his energy anymore.

How could this be?

William gathered the invisible mystical energy on his fingertip, played with it for a while, then flicked it, distributing it among the other "Chosen Ones."

He could have erased these energies, but there was no need.

Not erasing! Not caring! Just for fun!
