“You, a poor man?! The chairman of a top conglomerate proclaims himself as poor?! Who the fuck do you think you are fooling?!”A man dressed in the bodyguard uniform of the Savannah Conglomerate wildly yelled in anger as he threw his knife like a dart toward William, but the knife purposely avoided a centimeter away from William’s face.But it was still enough to cause a minor slash wound on William’s cheek as blood trickled out from it. The sharp pain on his face made William know that the assassins from Serpent Hand were starting to lose their patience.Yes, the man dressed in the bodyguard uniform of the Savannah Conglomerate was not part of the bodyguard team of the Savannah Conglomerate but one of the assassins of Serpent Hand who had infiltrated the bodyguard team of the Savannah Conglomerate.And in the command room aka the 25th floor of the Savannah Branch Building, there were a total of three assassins of Serpent Hand. Joshua who was also an assassin of Serpent Hand was taske
“How did you come here? Weren’t you locked by Joshua in the second-floor guest room? Even if you had come out of it, the elevator had shut down and it would take a long time for you to ascend here.”Hearing William’s question, Adam knew that William and the rest of the people inside the command room were already informed by the assassins that the examiner was replaced by Joshua.But since Adam planned to keep Satania’s existence a secret until he was powerful enough to protect himself, he decided not to answer William’s question.“It’s a trade secret. You only need to know that I haven’t failed any commissions yet.”‘Because this is my first commission. So of course, I have yet to fail it.’Hearing Adam’s reliable words, William and Amelia didn’t mind if he didn’t tell them about it. After all, all mercenaries had their own secrets and they would overstep their boundaries if they forced Adam to tell them about it.Of course, they didn’t know that Adam’s words were him finding a loopho
Although Adam said that he likes to be free, it was true, but that was not the main reason. He only became a mercenary just to complete his talent achievement task.If not for that, he wouldn’t even bother becoming a mercenary when his net worth was already in the hundred billion and even in the trillion if his cryptocurrencies and stocks were included.Adam was the second major shareholder of Zeria, but that doesn’t mean he wasn’t a shareholder in other top conglomerates. He had already obtained some shares in other top conglomerates such as Orange, Saudi Armaco, Arpabet Inc., and even Savannah.But of course, his shares were not as exaggerated as in Zeria since he was only a minor shareholder in those top conglomerates with at least 5% shares. Although, the accumulative net worth of those shares was enough to make Adam a trillionaire even if his cryptocurrencies weren’t included.And since he was already that wealthy, why would he risk his life to become a mercenary and earn mere mi
“Your name is Adam Spencer, is it?”“Yes, Father.”Adam replied politely to William while drinking a cup of coffee afterward.Both Adam, William, and Amelia were currently having a private conversation inside one of the guest rooms in the Savannah Branch Building.Two sides were sitting on two couches with a table in between. On the right side was William while on the left side were Adam and Amelia. On the table were three cups of coffee.Adam at this time had already taken off both of his two snipers but still had equipped his two pistols as well as his bulletproof vest and jacket filled with ammo and grenades.William and Amelia didn’t mind Adam’s weapons on his body since they knew that Adam wouldn’t kill them using them. And they were well aware that the assassins of Serpent Hand hadn’t given up yet so it was better if Adam was equipped with weapons so he could protect the two of them.The bodyguard team was already cleaning up the aftermath of the battle while the tech team was r
“Although I don’t mind protecting Amelia every day, we have to deal with the Serpent Hand as soon as possible.”Hearing Adam Spencer’s suggestion, both Amelia and William agreed to it. They had already known about Adam Spencer’s true identity as well as how Adam Spencer became the second biggest shareholder of Zeria.Because of that, they were well aware that Adam Spencer was very capable and reliable. Since he suggested that, then he must have a solution to deal with that problem.“Sigh, if I could, I would have already dealt with that. Unfortunately, no matter how much money I offered to Serpent Hand, they won’t agree in failing the commission they have received. Even when I had told them that I would pay thrice the commission fee, they still wouldn’t agree.”William sighed as he explained that even he was helpless in preventing Serpent Hand from assassinating his daughter.Serpent Hand was so stubborn regarding this since they would never drop a commission or else that would affect
-Ding![Talent achievement task completed successfully!][Talent: Ultimate Bodyguard][Description: With my mortal body, I will protect them! Their pain and suffering, I will bear them all!][Characteristic: Guardian’s Sacrifice]A week had passed and Adam and Amelia were currently in the living room on the 24th floor in the Savannah Branch Building. While Adam was sipping the morning coffee, the notification for the talent achievement task rang in his mind and the system screen appeared in front of him.Afterward, Adam felt that his body became stronger and he felt that he had gone through many battles. Because of that, he no longer had trash physical attributes and he possessed various martial arts but it was mostly for the purpose of defending someone.And as the Ultimate Bodyguard, Adam’s endurance attributes were improved more than his strength attributes. So even if his physical attack power was lower than his defense, he still preferred it since his specialty was his long-range
Although a week had passed and Serpent Hand ceased to exist which allowed Adam to complete his talent achievement task of protecting Amelia, that also meant that he had spent a week staying with Amelia in the Savannah Branch Building to protect her every day.In other words, Adam and Amelia had stayed in the Savannah Branch Building without leaving it. They hadn’t attended classes for a week straight but neither the two of them cared about it.After all, the purpose of going to school was to prepare for one’s future to have a job and earn money. But their status as billionaires had defeated the purpose of going to school.Perhaps, the only reason why Amelia and Adam still bothered to attend school was just to experience their youth without having to regret it in the future.Because of that, Amelia and Adam still planned to attend school and experience the youth of school life. They only skipped classes for a week straight due to the threat of Serpent Hand possibly being bold enough to
For Johnson High, Adam didn’t have any special feelings or attachments towards it. Because of that, he had ruthlessly decided to let the principal and teachers of that damn school rot in hell and experience what social death is like. The vengeance of a centibillionaire, mere principal, and teachers of even a first-class school can’t withstand it! When Adam’s car was near Johnson High, under special instructions of Adam, Payton stopped the car just a street away from Johnson High. Opening the door of his car, Adam left his car and closed the car door. It would be too conspicuous if he arrived in Johnson High with his car. If that happened, it would defeat the purpose of him pretending to be weak. As for why he would pretend to be weak and let himself be bullied, it was none other than to get the video of him being bullied and make a commotion and scandal about it. Let his bullies feel what it is like to experience social death. Being labeled by the whole world as evil and being con
