The battle between William and Invincibility was far from over, and the power levels of Jesus and Zeus were climbing steadily, clearly gaining insights from the ongoing conflict.
Invincibility's spells were not infinite, and many were unfamiliar even to William, likely secret techniques from other universes.
Even Jesus and the others were gaining insights, so naturally, William wasn't going to pass up the chance to learn.
These spells were somewhat interesting,although they weren't particularly useful for William, he thought they might be good to teach to kids someday. After all, William was always eager to learn.
"What kind of monster is William the Obliterator? Invincibility can use spells from all our universes, yet William hasn't moved an inch."
"His origins must be extraordinary. Could he be some high-ranking figure from the holy city of Nebulaeopolis just toying with us?"
"It looks like Invincibility stands no chance against him. We created this being, and in his eyes, it might just be a toy."
The Cosmic Entities were no fools. Since Invincibility began using spells enhanced by the supreme cosmic truths for long-range attacks, William the Obliterator hadn't made a move, yet he stood unscathed amidst tens of thousands of spells bombarding him.
As the Cosmic Entity from the first universe said, the gap in strength was just too vast.
"No matter the outcome, the power of our sacred halo will return to us."
"Right, there's no loss for us either way."
The Cosmic Entities were old calculators,even if Invincibility was killed by William the Obliterator, he would eventually revert to the power of the sacred halo and return to the original Cosmic Entities.
Thinking this way, even a loss wasn't really a loss.
"There's such a setting that the power of the sacred halo will return to the original Cosmic Entities?" William, overhearing some of the Cosmic Entities, took another look at Invincibility.
This was a fine creation, although not quite to William's aesthetic taste. Nevertheless, there was no doubt that the Cosmic Entities' meticulous work wasn't junk.
If William were to kill him, then he would revert to the power of the sacred halo and return to those Cosmic Entities.
Not a loss?
Hearing this, the first thought in William's mind was, that won't do!
Just like the Sword Spirit of the Sword of Soulbreaker taught Alice never to leave a battle empty-handed—a lesson also gleaned from years of experience following William.
lightsΝοvεl ƈοm William had been playing this game for so long, and if the Cosmic Entities didn't lose anything, wouldn't that mean he was just watching a show for free?
Even watching movies on Earth requires a paid membership.
Thinking this, William began to study the structure of Invincibility.
There were eighty-seven laws of power controlling Invincibility, eighty-six of which were weaker, and one resembled a contractual law of power.
It was probably this contract-like law of power that ensured, upon Invincibility's death, the power of the sacred halo wouldn't be lost and would return to the Cosmic Entities.It was like some payment apps on Earth, where if a payment fails, the amount is refunded.
Interesting!
But didn't the Cosmic Entities use the power of the sacred halo to create this guy just to kill him?
If you didn't manage to kill, you still consumed the power, right?
Consumed and still want a refund? Isn't that a scam?
Thinking this way, it seemed these Cosmic Entities were attempting to scam William!
Although William hadn't downloaded Truecaller on Earth, scamming such a kind-hearted elderly person in such a cruel manner was unacceptable to anyone!
These were Cosmic Entities from various universes, a bunch of utterly corrupt individuals!
William decided that today he must rid the people of this menace and confiscate the criminals' ill-gotten gains.
No sooner said than done, William, a man of action, absolutely couldn't let these criminals succeed in their schemes.
He finally made his move, but not to attack Invincibility.
An invisible hand appeared above Invincibility's head, forcibly grabbing those intangible yet thread-like laws of power.
In an instant, the eighty-seven laws of power vanished.
Invincibility was completely cut off from the Cosmic Entities, even disappearing from their perception.
William used a spatial storage ring to directly capture Invincibility.lightsnovel
"Where is he? What kind of spell is this? Even I can't detect it!" William looked around seriously, as if he too couldn't locate Invincibility.
The Cosmic Entities were even more confused. What just happened?
They couldn't sense Invincibility's existence at all.
It was like...
Payment successful! No refunds!
But William the Obliterator was still fine, they paid but didn't get the goods?
"Are we still fighting or not? If not, I'm leaving." William's gaze swept over the Cosmic Entities, he said indifferently, "Hiding and skulking around, it's pointless!"
The Cosmic Entities:"..."
Invincibility had already severed some ties with them, what was this about hiding and skulking?Did they not know what spells Invincibility could perform?
What strange spell?
Clearly, it was William the Obliterator pulling some tricks!
But what could they say?
These Cosmic Entities were just avatars, and in terms of combat power, they were not even close to Invincibility...
Now that William the Obliterator said Invincibility had disappeared using a spell, what could they dare to say?
If they dared to speak out, who knew what kind of heinous act William the Obliterator might commit next?
"We're done fighting, none dare to face me head-on."
William's avatar disappeared, and his true form appeared beside Alice, "My dear, let's go, we're done playing with them."
Jesus and Zeus also slowly got up, the battle was over, and it seemed it was time to leave.
The Cosmic Entities hadn't recovered yet, but William had already taken Alice and the others away from the Cosmic Entity Guardians' arena, back to the Divine Realm in the Maldives.
"William, did you win?" Alice finally asked in a low voice.
William smiled, "Do I ever lose?"
With that, Invincibility appeared on Villingili Island.
"Ah!" Alice stepped back in fright.
"Don't worry, he's not aggressive," William reassured her.
After Invincibility was taken into the spatial storage ring, William had made some modifications to him.
For instance, his core mission was to kill William the Obliterator. William told him that he was William, not William the Obliterator. Besides killing William the Obliterator, Invincibility's purpose in life was now also to serve William.
Well, why bother altering his core mission when adding a new one would suffice?
"William..." Invincibility began to speak, a capability William had granted him.
"Come to me when I call you," William instructed, "Do whatever you want when I don't."
Besides giving Invincibility the ability to speak, William also made him understand concepts like prosperity, democracy, civility, harmony, freedom, equality, justice, rule of law, patriotism, dedication, integrity, and friendliness...
And some ethical norms.
William also made him understand that fighting was wrong, believing this strong man would surely make something of himself in the future.
"Mr. William, what should I do now?" Invincibility, though still looking a bit fierce, had now acquired a gentlemanly demeanor.
"I don't have anything for you right now, go about your business," William looked at Invincibility and said, "I'll change your appearance a bit more."
After that, Invincibility's features became handsome, and he was dressed in a suit.
This way, he looked much better, at least he wouldn't scare children when out in public.
