Chapter 244 Evelyn's True Identity

Wes never expected that William would handle the situation so aptly and decisively.

If it were up to him to negotiate, facing Scott, he might not have the same confidence as William to propose such beneficial terms.

After all, in his view, even if Alice's Sword Spirit is fierce, he would never be able to make a statement like William, promising that not a single soul in the town would be spared.

If it had gone that way, the outcome of the negotiation would surely have been different.

Wes quickly arranged for staff from the 13th Bureau to come to Maplewood Town to register the "demigods."

When all the "demigods" gathered together, Wes was genuinely taken aback by their number.

There must be thousands of them!

A "demigod" essentially represents a Soulmancer who has broken past their own limits. They have more experience and an enhanced spiritual strength, enabling them to reach heights in a short time that a regular Soulmancer would struggle to achieve in a lifetime.

Previously, when they encountered just one or two demigods, they tried to coexist peacefully, careful not to provoke them. But now, they were facing thousands of "demigods."

Had it not been for the Sword Spirit's earlier intimidation, given William's negotiation style, they probably would have been preparing for the worst.

Now, these demigods obediently formed three lines. Under the guidance of the 13th Bureau's staff, they registered and each received a monitoring device.

Soon after, Wes also summoned nearby military forces to seal off Maplewood Town.

Scott, standing in front of them, coldly inquired, "I presume I don't need to register, considering the 13th Bureau already has my records?"

William's tone was even colder than his, saying, "Why shouldn't it be registered? What was your strength level before? What is your current state? Don't you need to report when you break through your previous level?"

"Enough! I've tolerated you for too long!" Scott exclaimed in anger, looking as though he was about to strike.

Alice raised her hand, positioning the Sword of Soulbreaker at an angle, and said, "Mr. Taylor, considering the relationship between our families, I advise you not to take action. Otherwise, you will surely die!"

She didn't say this to protect William. He didn't need her protection. She genuinely said this to spare Scott's life.

If she truly angered her master, Scott would undoubtedly face a gruesome end. Wasn't Travis a prime example of this?

Scott snorted coldly and said, "Alice, for your sake, I won't argue with him. But even as demigods, we have human rights, so we should be free to come and go from this place, right?"

William nodded, saying, "Of course, you all can leave. However, if even one demigod commits murder, as long as there's evidence, all of you will face the same punishment. Don't blame us if we end up wiping out the entire town."

Wes's lips twitched involuntarily. He hadn't realized that William could be so ruthless!

Coming up with the idea that if one person errs, everyone faces the consequences!

Talking about annihilating an entire town just like that!

Anyone unaware would think his power was tremendous.

Scott's face grew darker. He had anticipated the arrival of the 13th Bureau and even thought about how to negotiate with them assertively, even considering taking over the entirety of New York City as his territory.

But how could he have predicted that Alice had joined the 13th Bureau and possessed such a terrifying divine sword?

Especially this entry-level Soulmancer before him,the kid was just too arrogant!

"Fine! No problem!" Scott stared at William for a while and then broke into a smile, saying, "We'll do as you say."

William detected a murderous intent in Scott's eyes, but he wasn't concerned.

Scott's thoughts must be straightforward now.

For an entry-level Soulmancer like William, as long as Alice wasn't by his side, these "demigods" could discreetly eliminate him with ease.

As for evidence of the "demigods" committing a murder?

Ever heard of overpowering someone with sheer might?

Leaving behind evidence after killing an entry-level Soulmancer would be a joke, wouldn't it?

Scott agreed to everything, and the operations of the 13th Bureau proceeded efficiently.

After the registration, there were a total of 1,388 "demigods," and including Scott, Maplewood Town had a total population of 1,389.

Nelson, who had been observing the entire process, couldn't help but ask, "Scott, where's your father? Why hasn't he shown up?"

He had known James Taylor for a long time, and with such significant events occurring in the Taylor family, why hadn't James Taylor appeared?

Even if he was possessed by a demon, he should have come to register.

"Grand Sorcerer Nelson, my father passed away a few days ago." Scott was not afraid of Nelson. He was just a high-level Soul Mage. If it weren't for that Sword Spirit today, who would dare to show off in town?

Nelson's expression became solemn as he asked, "How did your father die?"

"My father died peacefully in his sleep. He passed away very peacefully. Thank you, Grand Sorcerer, for your concern." Scott's expression was calm, showing no signs of sorrow.

Died peacefully in his sleep?

"Please accept my condolences," Nelson said, not prying further.

With so many "Demi-Gods" appearing in Maplewood Town, how could it be possible that James Taylor simply died peacefully in his sleep at this time?

He never would have guessed that James Taylor had met his end at the hands of his own son, Scott.

Upon hearing the news of James Taylor's demise, William displayed no emotional reaction.

After their last parting from the Taylor household, he and James had severed all ties, with no lingering connections.

The matters in Maplewood Town were swiftly resolved, and upon leaving the town, Wes repeatedly expressed his gratitude to Alice.

"Let's go find Evelyn now," William suggested.

William continued, "Alright, I'll be the one to speak with her."

Wes pondered for a moment before replying, "Okay!"

He really wasn't sure if William was skilled at negotiations or not, but he had to admit that the outcome of the Maplewood Town negotiation was impressive.

From what he understood, William seemed to share a decent relationship with Evelyn, so having him handle the discussion seemed optimal.

After leaving Maplewood Town, their group quickly arrived at New York's Silvergate Tower.

"Previously, the Taylor family liquidated all their national assets. But now, Evelyn is using that money to venture into various industries. She instantly spent between thirty and fifty million dollars to purchase the entire Silvergate Tower. She even registered a company called WillEve Financial Services LLC." Wes paused mid-sentence, looked at William, and inquired, "Uh... William, are you and Evelyn in a romantic relationship?"

It couldn't be helped; the name Willstar Financial was a dead giveaway.

The "Will" in it was none other than William's name, right?

"We're not in a romantic relationship," William clarified.

He had just started reading the online written by Evelyn while in the car, and he had finally figured out her identity.

He sighed inwardly, realizing that sometimes he couldn't take everyone into consideration in his actions.

It was unexpected that she would harbor such a deep obsession, retaining her memories even after reincarnation and even transforming her appearance to match her previous life.

Back in medieval Camelot, as described in Evelyn's online , William had another identity: Arthur Pendragon, the legendary King Arthur, ruler of Camelot.

At that time, Artemis was reincarnated as Queen Guinevere, Arthur's wife.

Meanwhile, another significant female figure in Camelot, Morgana, who was Arthur's half-sister, would often use her magic to disrupt the peace of the palace out of jealousy for Guinevere.

For a period, Morgana fantasized about being Guinevere, hoping to win Arthur's love.

Evelyn retained memories from the Camelot era and wrote a book from Guinevere's perspective.

This was probably a product of Morgana's jealous fantasies about Guinevere.

Later, carrying this obsession into her next life, Morgana was reincarnated, which led to Evelyn looking exactly like Guinevere.

William had an excellent memory, and as he perused the , he recalled the events from his time in Camelot. Many parts of the book did not match his memories. If it were truly a transmission of memories, it should not be like this.

Most importantly, after Artemis was reincarnated, she could not possibly have retained Guinevere's memories. Therefore, William was certain that Evelyn was the reincarnation of Morgana.
