Adem's current strength could no longer be considered weak.
At the very least, compared to others, he was now a 1-ring Life Knight, and he was close to the peak.
He was only a step away from breaking through the limit and becoming a 2-ring Knight.
For his age, this kind of result was already enough to make him a genius.
However, for the current Yardim, this kind of strength was not enough.
He needed to improve as much as possible.
In terms of improving his strength, he had many methods.
Standing there, various thoughts flashed through his mind before he looked outside and gave a few orders.
In his name, he had servants capture a few people from around him.
His status was that of Duke Yalu's successor, making him a future duke.
For someone of his status, it was a simple matter for him to capture a few people.
He did not need to harm ordinary people; he only needed to say a few words, and a few prisoners would be sent over to the noble son of the Duke.
They did not know what the noble son of the Duke needed these people for.
However, they only needed to do as he said.
Very soon, the people that Yardim wanted arrived, and they were all strong adult men.
According to the information given by the servants, these people seemed to be bandits who had been captured and imprisoned.
Now, they could be given to Yardim as experimental materials.
"That's not too bad …"
Standing on the spot, Adem looked at the prisoners in front of him and couldn't help but nod.
Following this, he walked forward and slowly drew his sword.
His sword was silver, and it was made of many unique materials, making it look quite different.
There were also fine patterns on it, making it look very beautiful.
It was obvious that it was very valuable.
In fact, this was the case.
It looked like an ordinary sword, but it was actually a magic weapon. It was extremely sharp and expensive.
Of course, to Yardim, this was just an ordinary sword.
Swish …
In that instant, the sound of the sword tearing through the air sounded out, followed by a few muffled sounds.
A bloody aura appeared, and there seemed to be a faint dripping sound that was exceptionally clear.
A moment later, Yardim put away the sword in his hand and wiped away the blood on it before turning around and looking ahead.
Under his gaze, everything in front of him was changing.
In front of him, the death row prisoners had already turned into corpses.
A gash had appeared on their chests. The mark on it was crimson and extremely bright.
And at this moment, under Adim's gaze, their corpses were rapidly drying up, as if they were dehydrated in a short period of time.
No, that's not all.
Under Adim's watchful gaze, the changes gradually began.
In the end, these corpses directly broke apart and turned into fine powder. Just like that, they disappeared, and not a single human figure could be seen.
Only the clothes they had left behind were still there, and they seemed to be intact, no different from before.
A faint warm current appeared within Adim's body.
After this warm current appeared, it began to spread in all directions, enveloping Adem from head to toe and strengthening his body.
The feeling was extremely unique, and there was an indescribable sense of comfort.
It was only after a while that the sigh completely disappeared.
Just like that, Adem stood where he was and felt the power within his body roiling before he slowly opened his eyes.
At this moment, the power surging in his body was none other than the power of slaughter.
The Slaughter Divinity could plunder the essence of other lifeforms through slaughter, turning it into his own slaughter energy to strengthen himself.
He had rarely used this kind of power in the past.
However, this was because he had the faith energy of two worlds, as well as enough divine power to support him. As such, he naturally did not need the slaughter energy to support him.
But when it came to Adem, he didn't have such conditions.
He was just a doppelganger. Although he had obtained some divinity and divine power when he left his main body, it was impossible for him to directly strengthen his body to an extremely powerful state like his main body.
Therefore, in this situation, he could not help but shift his gaze to the Massacre Divinity in his body.
The Slaughter Divinity's authority was to slaughter.
By slaughtering other lifeforms, one could plunder the power of other lifeforms' bodies to continuously become stronger.
This kind of unique ability had great effects at all times.
This was the case for Adem right now.
Standing where he was, he sensed the changes within his body.
Just by killing three people, his body had become slightly stronger, and he was one step closer to reaching Two Ring.
If he were to continue like this, he believed that he wouldn't be far from reaching the level of a second ring.
Adem was quite satisfied with this.
In the following period of time, if there was nothing special, he didn't plan to go out. Instead, he planned to stay here quietly and not leave.
Time gradually passed.
Unknowingly, half a month had passed just like that.
Half a month was not a very long time.
However, during this time, many things had happened.
The thing that people paid the most attention to was what had happened to the Yalu family's successor, Sir Adem.
Ever since Princess Elus's banquet, Sir Adem, who had been infatuated with Princess Elus, seemed to have changed.
Not only did he not give the Gem of Life that he had bought at a high price to Princess Elus as everyone had expected, but he also did a lot of things after that.
In just half a month, countless people had been driven out of the Yalu family's businesses.
These people were basically related to Princess Elus.
Originally, because Adem's predecessor was especially infatuated with Elus, he would never refuse Elus's requests.
In fact, Adem's predecessor would even agree to the requests of some people who were very close to Elus.
As time passed, a large number of outsiders entered the Yalu family's businesses.
Many people used Elus's name to meddle in the Yalu family's businesses, or cooperate with the Yalu family's businesses, or directly contract them.
If these situations were normal, it would not be a big deal.
However, many times, a large number of bad things happened.
Some people contracted the Yalu family's businesses, but in the end, they did not give out the profits as promised.
There were also some people who secretly embezzled the Yalu family's businesses.
These were all very bad behaviors.
It was just that in the past, Adim's predecessor had turned a blind eye to these things for the sake of Elus, feeling that it didn't matter.
After all, for the future heir of the Yalu family, these things were really nothing.
But now, after inheriting everything from this body, Adem was not so easy to talk to.
He did not care about Elus's face at all, and did what he had to do.
Therefore, in just half a month's time, countless people had been chased away.
Many people were even directly detained, and no one knew how long they would be imprisoned.
In the Kakun Empire, the Yalu family was fully deserving of being a giant.
As the heir of the Yalu family, once Adem got serious, there were not many people who could not deal with him.
In this regard, many people in Kanai City were waiting to see Princess Elus's reaction with the thought of watching a joke.
After all, from the looks of it, Adem, the son of a duke, had made it clear that he was not giving Elus any face.
In the face of such a situation, what could Princess Elus do?
Many people were very interested in this, and they were ready to watch a good show behind the scenes.
Adem himself did not care about this.
For the past half a month, he had been staying in his manor, quietly cultivating.
As for what was happening outside, although he was clear about it, he did not care.
With his identity, he just needed to get rid of some vermin, so he naturally would not do it himself.
As long as he gave the order, there would naturally be people who would do it.
In fact, some people had wanted to do this in the past.
It was only because of Adem's predecessor that they could not do it.
But now, Adem himself did not stop them and even gave the order, so these people naturally did not hesitate and directly solved the matter.
The whole process could be considered very easy.
It was another early morning.
When the sun shone on the ground, Adem walked calmly on the spacious training ground, feeling the unique feeling in his body.
"I'm close to transforming …"
Standing alone, Adem practiced the breathing technique once. He stood there, feeling the changes in his body, and then this thought flashed through his mind.
During this period of time, he had been quietly training himself and killing people at the same time.
Using his own power, he could easily get a large number of death row prisoners to provide him with Slaughter Power.
And this Slaughter Power was constantly baptizing Adem's body, helping his strength to grow.
Now, he had reached a limit.
The strength of this body had already reached a certain limit, standing at the peak of one ring, close to the level of two rings.
During this period of time, Adem constantly used the power of slaughter to temper himself, allowing his strength to grow to its limit.
At least for now, Adem could feel that his body had already begun to transform.
At this moment, it seemed to be evolving to another level.
If he was not wrong, when this transformation was completed, he would directly become a two ring Knight.
And at this level, it would be another world.
In the Kakun Empire, although the number of one ring Knights could not be said to be everywhere, it could not be said that they were rare either.
But two ring Knights might not be the same.
At least in the Kakun Empire, a two-ring Knight was also the backbone of many families.
Even in a duke's family like the Yalu Family, their status was not considered weak.
If Adem could advance to two rings, it would be of great help to his status in the Yalu Family.
This could be considered good news.
After finishing today's training, Adem put down the longsword in his hand, then turned around, and prepared to leave and go back to meditate.
At this time, not only was he training as a Life Knight, but he also did not put aside his mage training.
After all, compared to his achievements as a Life Knight, his achievements as a Wizard were even more outstanding.
Therefore, he did not give up on the path.
Because of this, every time after training, Adem would go to his room and continue to meditate to improve his spiritual power.
It was the same today.
But today, it seemed to be a little different.
Adem stopped in his tracks. At this moment, he could not help but turn around and look outside, frowning inwardly.
He sensed that there was a figure rapidly approaching from the outside.
There was also the sound of hurried footsteps.
He frowned and just stood there, looking in the distance.
Under his gaze, a woman quickly walked over from the outside.
It was a woman wearing a long red robe. Her appearance could be considered delicate and pretty, and she was also very tall. However, there was a hint of anger on her face as she hurriedly rushed over.
"Miss Ella, Young Master Adem is inside. You can't go in without permission!"
The voices of maids sounded around, vaguely revealing a sense of anxiety. It seemed that they wanted to stop this woman, but they could not do so.
She walked over in a hurry with an angry look on her face.
"Adem!"
From afar, her voice could be heard, just like that.
Looking at the woman walking over, Adim's expression was calm as he looked at her.
"Good day, Miss Ella."
Standing in place, he calmly looked at the woman in front of him and the servants behind her.
He then said, "What do you want from me?"
"What do I want?"
A cold smile appeared on Ella's face. She looked at Adem and said loudly, "Why did you capture my people?"
"Your people?"
Adem was a little surprised. "Who are you referring to?"
During this period of time, he had been staying in his manor and had not gone out at all.
He really couldn't remember when he went to capture her people.
Ella was also a noble, and she was about the same age as Adem.
Under normal circumstances, the two of them shouldn't have any interaction.
However, Ella seemed to be a very good friend of Princess Elus and could be considered one of her best friends.
It was precisely because of this that Adem was familiar with Ella and had some interaction with her.
"You actually don't know?"
Standing in place and listening to Adem's words, the anger on Ella's face became even more intense. "Just the day before yesterday, your knights rushed to my friend's Chamber of Commerce and captured all of my friends!"
"Captured?"
Hearing this, Adem was a little surprised. But at this moment, he more or less understood what was going on.
Thus, he smiled and continued, "So, what's the reason?
"Why was your friend taken away?"
"I don't care what the reason is!"
Ella was a little angry and seemed to be a little resentful. "Adem, please let my people go. Don't embarrass me in front of my friends!"
Standing in place and looking at Ella, Adem didn't say anything and just sighed inwardly.
At this moment, he really didn't understand.
What was the predecessor thinking?
Forget about that Princess Elus.
Even this Ella in front of him seemed to be very presumptuous.
They clearly didn't have the capital to be presumptuous, so why did they still dare to be so unrestrained?
Howling in front of a stronger person.
Adem sighed. He didn't have the mood to deal with her. He just glanced at her, then turned around and prepared to leave.
However, looking at Adem's appearance, Ella seemed to be even more furious.
"Adem!"
She took a step forward and walked straight ahead. It seemed that she wanted to stop Adem.
A figure walked over, wanting to help stop her from approaching Adem.
"Get lost! You lowly commoner! "
Ella's somewhat violent voice sounded.
Following this, a clear sound could be heard.
Adem's figure paused and turned around.
Behind him, a little girl's figure fell to the ground.
It was none other than Tina.
On her face, a palm print appeared, and it looked very clear.
She fell to the ground in a daze and touched her face with one hand, seeming somewhat afraid.
Adem's smile gradually disappeared.
"Was it you who attacked just now?"
Standing there, Adem's expression was calm as he looked at Ella.
Meeting Adem's gaze, for some reason, Ella's body suddenly froze.
An inexplicable feeling surfaced, causing her scalp to go numb, and her expression to freeze.
"It's just … a lowly commoner …"
Meeting Adem's gaze, she finally spoke.
Thump.
A muffled sound rang out.
Ella's figure was sent flying.
In the blink of an eye, countless bones in her body had been broken.
"Sorry."
Adem's gentle voice sounded out.
Adem walked to Tina, pulled the little girl up, and carried her in his arms. Then, he looked at Ella, who was in front of him.
"Compared to her, to me, you're more like a lowly commoner."
Standing there, Adem shook his head and looked to the side as he gave some instructions.
At the side, a few guards quickly walked forward and grabbed Ella without any hesitation.
If everything went as planned, she would be locked up in a cage until Adem was satisfied.
Following this, Adem left this place.
At this moment, he realized something.
"From the looks of it, the impression that my predecessor left on others was a little too weak …"
While walking, Adem recalled Ella's performance just now and shook his head. This thought flashed through his mind.
