Invincible! This person has lived for a billion years-Chapter 207 Legendary King.
Chapter 207 Legendary King.
Evelyn's online novel didn't garner much attention because, while it was realistic, the plot was disjointed. Most genuine readers found themselves dizzy with confusion, not understanding what she was trying to convey.
There were hardly any positive comments in the review section.
However, William grasped the fragmented story, which only deepened his puzzlement.
Could Evelyn really be that person?
"Are you writing about the Middle Ages? Am I supposed to be King Arthur?" William questioned, finding himself in such a situation for the first time.
Normally, reincarnated souls wouldn't have memories. Yet, some unique individuals, with lingering attachments from their past lives, occasionally have flashbacks of their previous existence, especially during childhood.
Evelyn recalling events from the Middle Ages seemed unusual.
From the Middle Ages to the present, William had several romances.
There was a period in the Middle Ages when he was indeed known as King Arthur, and during that time, he encountered an intriguing figure named Mordred.
Mordred, in his ambition to seize the throne, amassed an army against Arthur. Back then, William (King Arthur) had the support of only a small group of knights. However, someone like William wasn't someone Mordred could easily outmaneuver.
On the night of the decisive battle, omens were rife, severely dampening the morale of Mordred's forces.
King Arthur, leading his Knights of the Round Table, charged into the enemy lines, displaying extraordinary bravery and wisdom. Even his own knights were profoundly impressed.
As King Arthur in the Middle Ages, William had done a lot. Recently, while reading about Arthurian legends, he saw reflections of himself.
Some called him the "Legendary King."
William felt that this title was apt. If not for him, the entirety of Britain might have looked entirely different.
What's more intriguing was that Evelyn's book was written from the perspective of Guinevere, Arthur's beloved.
William had another lover at the time, Morgana Le Fay, an exceptionally intelligent witch. However, he eventually favored Guinevere over Morgana, somewhat neglecting the latter.
Most strikingly, Evelyn bore a striking resemblance to Guinevere. That's why when William first saw Evelyn, he felt a sense of déjà vu and suspected that she might be a reincarnated soul.
But why did Evelyn specifically recall events from the Middle Ages?
It would have made more sense if she remembered events from the Civil War era. The occurrences from the Middle Ages seem somewhat distant for someone who has reincarnated...
Evelyn gazed at William for a long while before finally saying, "Alright! But we should consider each other friends, at least. If you're willing to work at my company, I can offer you a higher salary."
"Well, thank you for that," William replied.
He had given it a lot of thought these past days. Even if Evelyn truly was someone who had reincarnated over several centuries, if the present her didn't genuinely care for William, then there was no reason for him to persist in this entanglement.
After reincarnation, shouldn't she be a completely new person?
Over the years, William had countless romantic involvements.
Why persistently pursue someone over lifetimes?
To speak of deep love and affection in such a context felt insincere.
William knew well that he was never one for profound emotional attachments. He simply went with whoever he felt comfortable with at the moment.
Labeling him as a "playboy" wouldn't be an exaggeration.
Evelyn didn't say much else, but William could sense a significant change in the woman before him.
That evening, when it was time to leave work, a private car arrived to pick up Evelyn.
Evelyn asked, "William, do you want to come along? Ride in my car?" 𝒃𝙚𝒅𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝒍.𝙣𝙚𝙩
"No, thank you. I'll just head back to my dorm," William responded. He suddenly felt that he didn't particularly care for Evelyn as much as he thought he did. Furthermore, that inexplicable sense of familiarity he had felt with Evelyn previously had vanished without a trace.
He couldn't help but wonder: Was this due to his own feelings, or was it because of the changes in Evelyn?
"In a couple of days, my grandfather and I will be moving out. I plan to take him to the best hospital for treatment, so you don't need to worry." Evelyn seemed to have become aware of the severity of her grandfather's condition.
William responded, "I think it would be best if Alice examined your grandfather."
Evelyn replied, "It's not that I don't trust her, but she's just so young. I only hope that my grandfather can recover as quickly as possible."
"Alright, it's your decision." William felt a bit uneasy inside. Describing Nathaniel's condition as critical was no exaggeration, and in today's world, very few could cure him.
Charles Turner had also passed away.
Without letting Alice examine him, who else could truly cure Nathaniel's ailment?
Nevertheless, this was Evelyn's decision to make, and Nathaniel was her grandfather. William chose to respect her decision.
That night, William didn't return home; instead, he stayed in the dormitory.
It was rare for William to stay in the dorm, which excited Wyatt and the others. They even introduced William to computer gaming.
Inside the college dormitory, with three computers, they first taught William how to play "League of Legends". After grasping some basic controls, William started going on a rampage in the game.
Dodging abilities and showcasing various pro moves, the three onlookers were left dumbfounded.
"William, are you kidding us? Is this your first time playing the game?"
"I just started today!" William found the game quite interesting, especially the variety of abilities.
"Do you know how to play CS:GO?"
"Let's give it a shot!" William was beginning to find computer gaming quite entertaining, understanding now why his dorm mates could spend sleepless nights engrossed in these games.
CS:GO is similar to the previous CS, but it features 3D graphics and improved visuals. Both are first-person shooting games.
Once William got the hang of the controls, he was practically unstoppable: every shot was a headshot, and he dominated the game, making it clear he wasn't just an average player.
These games require quick reflexes, fast hand movements, and steadiness.
Did William's reflexes even need to be mentioned?
And as for his hand steadiness...
William could easily carve a block of tofu into a lotus flower using a massive axe weighing a thousand pounds.
"William! With your skills, you could totally go pro!" Wyatt and the others were flabbergasted. Such gameplay could likely only be matched by professional gaming legends.
