In the dark alley, the three of them each harbored their own thoughts.
Alice's mind was entirely on William, completely unaware that she was being targeted.
Wesley, hidden in the shadows and wearing a ghost mask, suddenly attacked, striking at William from behind.
A sudden gust of wind arose, and Alice finally realized that someone was following them – and this person was attacking William.
But...
Would she panic?
Given her master's strength, who could possibly ambush him?
Surely, every move of the attacker must be within her master's expectations.
William, of course, had sensed the attack coming but did not react, letting Wesley's palm strike his back.
Wesley was quite confident in this strike of his. Even a mid-level Soulmancer, caught off guard, would likely be seriously injured.
For someone like William, a mere novice Soulmancer, such a blow would surely shatter his heart meridians, causing instant death!
