Adam moved fast within the crowd.
He was no stranger to the port district.
He only had one problem; his clothes; they were too flashy.
Adam already planned what he was going to do. Even without a system mission, Edward Lightbringer had to die. He was in no mood to forgive. Adam knew he was not strong enough to go against a 10th tier powerhouse. However, he had his people, and Diana was joining him, making things easy.
‘Sigh.’
Adam realised he was unknowingly angry the moment he left the palace. His killing intent affected Diana negatively. He felt like a fool. His anger could do nothing.
‘It is what it is.’
“Let’s have a chat.”‘Is this a joke?’Sakura froze, feeling the sharp edge on her neck.She didn’t know what happened or who came for her. She felt the voice was unfamiliar. Then again, she wasn’t expecting someone she knew to come and take her life.“Did... Did the Admiral send you?” She at least wished to know the person who found her so fast.If there was anyone who could track her after escaping, it should be the new admiral of the pirate bay. No one else had a similar capability.“Who? I am here to talk to you.”“What?... Y
The moonlight shone on the calm water. Coupled with the cool breeze, it gave a pleasant feeling to people. Jane tugged her hair to stop it dangling in the wind. ‘I like this dress.’ She usually had to wear noble clothing, and it was rare for her to wear pants and shirts. ‘She is good.’ Jane commented in her heart. She watched the female captain steer the ship for quite some time now, and she was constantly yelling and steering the ship without a stop. ‘I could say she is pretty.’ The young captain had lengthy black hair and large eyes. She wore a red bandana on her head. The tight pants and shirt wrapped around the shaped body.
“What a terrifying power!”Jane stuttered, feeling the pressure from the Bishop of the Church of Light. Even with two 10th tier powerhouses suppressing him, his domain was pressuring them.The battle had already started. She saw the lookout falling from the crew nest. Adam, the one who started all this, totally ignored this monster of a man, to jump the back-line. The others followed him without hesitation. This was the original plan.However, Jane froze when she saw the glowing hammer that gave an otherworldly feeling. Coupled with the several blows they exchanged until now, she felt worried. Carl, the new 10th tier warrior, was already panting after a few exchanges.Jane felt all the surrounding noises didn’t matter. If they failed t
“Adam….”Jane slowly approached Adam.She managed to stop the bleeding from her wounds after some effort. All around her, people were putting out fires, and some tending to their wounds. She couldn’t imagine no lives on their side were lost. They barely had sixteen people to fight with others being occupied.The one who suffered the most damage was the unconscious man healed by Adam. She wanted to ask for him to use this magic again, but Jane witnessed the fatigue Elena showed after using it once.‘Well, sort of tired.’She wanted to roll her eyes at Adam, too. They were obviously flirting, even in that situation. More accurately, Elena was acting weak to gain Adam’
“It is good to be back. I really need some sleep.”Jane stretched her tired body, changing into old clothes.It was already morning by the time they returned to the bay. Last night’s mission was much more successful than they imagined. The only evidence left about their mission was the people who took part in the mission and the prisoners.They were yet to learn the origin of the family imprisoned in the ship, but she wanted to decide the fate of the traitors after talking with Elena. The four people sent by the Victor family worked on their master’s instructions, but they betrayed the Empire.They were yet to decide the fate of the commoners who worked on the ship, too. They left everyone on the pirate ship with Adam’s men
“Your Majesty, they are ready.”“Everything is arranged?”“Yes, Your Majesty.”Freda looked at her appearance again.They were once a proud race, but what now left was a remnant of that strength. Only disappointment and awaiting the slow demise was all they had until recently. The appearance of the power of the gods was the only hope they had.She looked out through the window at the humongous tree that stood in the middle of the lush green forest. Unlike the surrounding greenery, this tree had very few leaves left. Still, every one of them emitted pure energy of life, refreshing her soul. Their precious tree of life. The source of power granted by the Goddess herself.
‘I hope she is fine now.’Adam gently patted his white horse while waiting for the Empress.Yesterday, for some reason, he made her angry again. The reason; he was yet to figure out. She was angry after the negotiations with the Elves.He agreed to help them in return for the conditions of the Empress. In Adam’s mind, it was rather beneficial for them. Besides, he had a sense of duty regarding the request from the Elves.He never thought there would be dark creatures surrounding the Elven lands. Even though they didn’t go into detail, he had a feeling it might relate this to the same forces that appeared in the Church of Shadows and the Church of the Dawn.Even if it was not, there wa
“We have to deal with the iron shipment coming to the valley. Take it from Lord Mason’s people tonight.”Adam currently sat on one of the wooden buildings made by Dwarfs. It was a spacious building with a nice fireplace and a smooth finishing. Wooden planks looked well-sealed and tight. The floor made of smooth stone made the atmosphere inside warm and welcoming.He sat behind the stack of documents on his table.To be honest, he was never used to this kind of work, but now he had to pay attention to everything. Lord Mason reminded him several times. Verbal promises and numbers meant very little. As long as there was something written, they could use the details properly.A group of people assigned by Lord Mason, and his own people who
