As soon as he saw this, William realized that he had fallen for the enemy's ability.
Since he had already investigated those from Elentia, William knew exactly what Long Shui Ling's power was.
It was the power to create illusions.
That ant that all of this should be an illusion…but for so reason, it just felt so real at the sa ti.
After all, he could feel Yun Che pulling from behind him.
However, since this was an illusion, that ant that none of this should be real.
Taking a deep breath, William ignored the pulling that ca from Yun Che behind him and told himself, "This isn't real, this isn't real."
The only way to combat an illusion was to know that it was an illusion and then focus one's mind to break through the illusion. As long as one had a strong enough mind, they would be able to break free of the illusion's grasp and regain control of themselves.
It seed to be going well as William didn't seem to hear Yun Che anymore.
He didn't even feel the sensation of Yun Che grabbing him anymore.
It was as if Yun Che had completely disappeared.
But then…there was another voice that rang out, "How could you do this to ?"
William couldn't help opening his eyes since this voice sounded very familiar…
When he did, he revealed a shocked look.
That was because the one that had grabbed his feet wasn't the top half of Long Shui Ling as he had expected. Rather, this top half had changed into a completely different appearance, but the shock was there.
That was because he recognized this top half with just a single glance.
Even if he didn't want to recognize this top half, it was impossible since it had been deeply imprinted in his mind.
This…was sothing that ca from his past.
It was not sothing that Long Shui Ling should have access to.
So how did she create an illusion of this?
"How could you let die?!" That top half cried out as she grabbed William's leg.
William couldn't help trembling when he heard this and there was a small part of him that reacted to it. But he just kept telling himself, "This isn't real, this isn't real…"
It was just too bad that this wasn't the end of this. Experience more on empire
There were more figures that suddenly appeared around William.
With the appearance of each figure, the look on William's face couldn't help changing.
It was as if he was becoming more and more shocked with each figure that appeared.
All of these figures that appeared around him had different appearances and they all ca forward to grab his arm before saying, "How could you do this to ?"
With each figure that appeared, the reaction that ca from William beca stronger and stronger. It was as if there was so kind of trauma that was being pulled up from deep inside of him.
Finally, he couldn't take it anymore and shouted, "How! How are you able to do this!"
He still believed that this was an illusion, but there was a part of him that started to waver.
That was because every figure that appeared was one from his past and all of these figures should have been people that Long Shui Ling didn't know. So he just couldn't understand how she was able to create illusions of them.
Or could it be that these weren't illusions at all?
No, if they weren't illusions, what were they?
After all, all of the people that had appeared around him were people that were dead.
Before he ca to participate in the tournant, William had done so shady things to survive.
After his father had been kicked out of Elentia, it didn't take long for him to fall into depression which he escaped from by drinking. The more that he drank, the more debt that he incurred.
So when his father died, that debt had fallen onto William to repay.
William had no choice but to do so shady things to repay this debt.
That was what had led him to killing all of these people.
As he was being dragged down more and more, William finally couldn't take it anymore as he started shooting spatial blades all around him. He seed like he wanted to cut down all of these figures that were around him.
When the spatial blades made contact with these figures, they seed to scatter them away which gave William a chance to move.
But where was he supposed to go?
It wasn't as if there was a place for him to run to escape all of these figures that wanted to drag him down.
That was until he saw a single path.
After they had been scattered, it took a few seconds for these figures to reform.
While they were reforming, he found that there was a space where there weren't any figures at all. It was almost as if there was a path for him to escape being surrounded by these figures.
William's mind had already long collapsed, so he just took that opening and ran forward.
Once he made it to that opening, he found…that he was falling.
He didn't know what it was that made him fall like this, but it felt like he was falling into the abyss.
As he fell, all of the figures around him suddenly jumped onto him and started to pull him down. It was as if they wanted to drag him down into hell with them.
Seeing all of this, William shouted, "No! Back! Stay back! I had no choice! I just did what I had to do to survive!"
While shouting this, he waved his hand and sent out spatial blades as if he wanted to escape.
But this ti, it didn't have an effect at all on these people.
The last thing that he saw were all of these figures surrounding him before he felt a blow co from the back of his head.
This blow knocked him out.
