Chapter 403 An Eerie AtmosphereIn

In the age of gods, when ferocious beasts roamed freely, humans began to practice magic and craft magical artifacts to counter these powerful creatures, seeking nothing more than to establish a secure existence.

Luna and Erebus, of pure bloodlines and formidable strength, were among the most powerful beings in any parallel dimension.

Beasts have a primal intuition for places rich in treasures or abundant in energy.

They couldn't discern why this bookstore, or particularly this table, was so special, but they knew it was a remarkable place.

Just like William's home, a sanctuary so rare it would be hard to find in the entire Divine Realm.

"Stop wiping just this table. Clean the dust off the other shelves with a dry cloth," William finally said, unable to watch any longer. "After you're done, even if you lie on this table, I won't say anything." n/-o.(V(-E)/l-(B(-I(/n

Luna immediately perked up, asking, "Can I lie on it?"

William gave her another amiable smile.

Luna pouted but obediently stayed quiet, resting her head on the table and closing her eyes to meditate.

Deceiver!

All humans are deceivers!

He might not say anything, but with that smile, what more needed to be said?

Erebus reluctantly took a dry cloth to start dusting the shelves.

Some books were placed high up, but being able to levitate, Erebus moved silently around the bookstore like a ghost.

He didn't dare make a noise, fearing he might disturb William.

The atmosphere was quite eerie.

A girl, just told she had no potential to become a Soulancer, entered the bookstore seeking solace in books. She was startled to see Erebus floating while cleaning and stood dumbfounded.

Then, overwhelmed with frustration and tears, she fled the bookstore.

Seeing even a young child float and fly while she lacked even the qualifications to become a Soulancer, how could she not be upset?

William glanced up at Erebus. In this era, surely no one would mistake Erebus for a ghost or spirit.

Indeed, William had erased the AuraField from the table, but for those like Thanarok at this level, ordinary energy is the least significant thing. Only such a special, pure source of energy is what they crave.

This left Luna startled.

Why did he suddenly start meditating?

Didn't he just seem extremely anxious while recounting his tragic tale?

William saw Thanarok meditating there and didn't bother him.

From the afternoon until it got dark, the bookstore was eerily quiet.

After Erebus finished dusting, he too sat down opposite.

Once William finished reading a book, he knocked on the table and said to Thanarok, "Sorry, but the bookstore is closing. Please come back tomorrow."

Caught in an optimal meditative state, Thanarok was abruptly disturbed, causing him to frown and open his eyes, staring at William.

Seeing the situation getting tense, Luna quickly tugged at his sleeve.

Thanarok then came back to his senses!

That's what was off!

Luna and Erebus being so obediently quiet and cleaning here, and from William's tone, he realized that William was the owner of the bookstore.

If this table contained the purest energy source, then surely the owner of the bookstore must be extraordinarily powerful.

Especially with Luna so nervously pulling his sleeve, if he didn't understand the situation now, he'd be a fool.

Thanarok looked deeply at William and smiled, "Then we'll take our leave and come back to bother you tomorrow."

After saying this, he got up to leave the bookstore, deliberately slowing his pace to wait for Erebus and Luna.

However, although the two got up, they seemed to have no intention of leaving. Thanarok turned back to look at Luna.

"You go on your way, we're not with you," Luna said, giving him a cold glance.

They wouldn't dare leave without William's permission.

"..." Thanarok was frustrated. Hadn't he come here to find Luna and Erebus?

Now that only the three of them were left from their group, shouldn't they discuss what to do next?

William glanced at Luna and said, "If you have something to do, you can go."
