章 229: Chapter 229 - Punching Bag

[ Adam's POV ]

{ A moment before the spell had hit }

Adam sprang back multiple times, deftly dodging the barrage of light bullets that William suddenly unleashed. After retreating, he halted, a faint smirk playing on his lips as he observed William.

'So, he's quick to lose his composure too. That's another thing I'll need to correct.'

'Predictable for someone in his age but also something that needs to be changed unless he makes a fatal mistake in the future.'

"Not exactly honorable, but clever. And staying clever is what keeps you alive," Adam remarked, his tone tinged with irony as he waited for William's next move.

Adam's eyes narrowed as he watched William rise to his feet. William bent slightly, muttering something under his breath that Adam couldn't quite discern.

'What's he scheming now?' Adam thought looking at William's new move.

Their gazes locked, and Adam noticed a newfound determination in William's eyes.
