Hobbs didn't notice what was happening on the deck of the huge warship. He continued pretending to be relaxed and said to William, "Mr. Ishmael, it's better to help accelerate the ship first… As long as you ignore them, they're only illusions."
He tried his best to lower his voice when he reached the latter half of the sentence.
William didn't reply. Instead, he continued staring at the illusion of the sword being raised at him.
He couldn't ignore the other party.
Terra Riel was only an illusion from 800 years ago, but his body on Whalebone was also an illusion woven from Mirror Shadow.
Therefore, the other party had indeed seen him. Moreover, just like the black dragon from before, the other party could effectively attack him.
This was one of the reasons why William couldn't ignore him.
More importantly, even if the other party was an illusion, William didn't want to let him off.
