Aurelius and the others, having formed their alliance, viewed killing William as a minor issue.
Their main concern was how to divide the spoils.
While they were discussing these matters, an elite member of the Crimson Phoenix Guild burst into the hall, panic-stricken.
"Guild Master, that man named William is here!"
"William?" Aurelius frowned and asked, "Just him alone?"
"And two kids."
As they spoke, Aurelius tried to sense William's presence, but by then, William and Luna were already at the entrance of the hall.
"William? You dare to come here?" Aurelius was somewhat surprised, but after seeing William and Luna, he chuckled.
He had considered the possibility that the news of Alice going to the Divine Realm was false. If it had been Alice accompanying William, the situation might have been tricky. But now, seeing only William and two kids, he felt relieved.
William responded with a smile, "Why wouldn't I dare?"
