"Why haven't you made your move yet?" William chuckled, slowly closing his book, finding reading uninteresting at this moment.
Lucien gazed at William, falling silent for a long time, before finally letting out a deep sigh, "I really can't see anything special about you. If I have to point out something special..."
"It's especially annoying!"
William didn't have a particularly bad impression of Lucien, but as Alice's mentor, he naturally had to be strict with those pursuing her.
He also didn't find this young man particularly appealing.
What's the use of unrequited love that gets no response? In the end, you'll end up with nothing. Isn't that a simple truth?
"My opinion of you is the same!" William didn't ask Lucien why he wanted to kill him. He had figured out that if he killed Lucien, the energy entwined around Lucien would briefly "dissipate" and likely merge into another "chosen one."
