Adams looked at Kieran in shock.
However, after a while, the shock turned into realization.
It could even be considered as a relief.
"As expected, you are able to become that woman's husband because you have the gifts that normal people don't have!
"Everyone is wrong!"
They thought you were a soft persimmon, but in fact … Heh, even if that woman didn't make a move, if those bastards came at you with brute force, I guess your head would be bleeding right? "
Adams exclaimed, as if Kieran had finally solved the doubts in his heart.
However, when he mentioned his enemies, Adams' tone was filled with a heavy sense of schadenfreude. Adams then looked at Kieran with a burning gaze.
It was a gaze that saw something that belonged to someone else.
"2567, although you aren't a normal person, you are still unfamiliar with this world, right?"
Adams asked.
Kieran nodded without trying to hide the truth.
It wasn't just because it was the truth, it was also because he couldn't hide it.
Kieran had been in this world for less than three days, so he was unfamiliar with everything.
It wasn't just the normal people's world that was messed up by a series of sudden incidents, let alone the world that normal people didn't know about.
In simple words, if Kieran had some understanding of the world that normal people didn't know about, he wouldn't have appeared in front of Adams and asked him about it.
After all, judging from Adams' tone, his ex-wife's identity in the world that normal people didn't know about was something else.
"I am willing to be your guide.
Don't worry, it's just a simple guide. You don't have to join any organization or faction or bear any so-called responsibilities or obligations. "
Adams looked at Kieran, who nodded, and said in a very sincere tone.
He then gave Kieran a full explanation.
However, it didn't dispel the doubts in Kieran's mind.
Guide!
Even if Kieran didn't join the so-called faction or faction, he would be labeled as one.
Sometimes, it was enough to have this label.
As for the others?
Kieran knew very well what it meant to be helpless.
Once something happened, it would follow a certain path.
So, Kieran shook his head.
"Didn't you already have a choice?"
Kieran said.
If Adams was an ordinary person, Kieran wouldn't think much of it and would only think that it was normal for him to be the female forensic doctor's teacher.
However, Adams was obviously a member of the mystical side, so choosing a female forensic doctor with the physique of a psychic medium was worth pondering.
"Are you talking about Rose?"
"She is indeed a very good child."
"Strong, kind, and has her own moral bottom line, but her ability is limited — if she is only testing the boundaries, she will not be noticed and can live her life in peace, but once she enters this world, she will face danger at all times."
"And in the face of such danger, she can't protect herself!"
But you, 2567, are different!
As Adams spoke, he once again looked at Kieran with a burning gaze.
"I felt the power of your flames just now!"
"It's a kind of power that frightens me, and with a little bit of development, you will become an existence like that person."
"In the process, I will do my best to help you."
Adams said as if he was making a vow.
Kieran, on the other hand, kept quiet.
Judging from Adams' words, the mystical realm before him wasn't that high.
Adams seemed to have reached a certain height, but even so, he couldn't truly understand the uniqueness of the female forensic doctor's physique of a psychic medium. All he saw was Kieran's Powerful level of Devil Flame.
Yes, Kieran acknowledged the uniqueness of Devil Flame.
But it didn't stop him from rating the mystical realm before him: on the low side.
"I'm used to being alone."
Kieran emphasized again.
Adams sighed gloomily at Kieran's rejection.
"Since you can become that person's husband, you must have a similar personality."
"But you have to be careful since you are alone."
"Even that person lost her life in the endless ambushes and assassinations. Without a corresponding organization, it's hard to go up against a powerful faction."
"If you run into any trouble, call me, I'll do my best to help you."
Although Kieran didn't agree, Adams still reminded Kieran and gave Kieran a handwritten name card.
After a quick glance at the phone number, Kieran made sure there wasn't anything fishy about it, so he kept it in his pocket.
"Can you tell me about Mary?"
Kieran asked.
He needed more information about Mary to perfect the information he had.
"Of course.
Since you have talents that others don't, you should know how powerful that person is. "
Adams nodded and pointed to the sofa not far away.
After both of them sat down, Adams started to tell his story.
"She was born with nothing special, but when she entered high school, a car accident awakened her power."
"No one knew what kind of power it was because no one had ever encountered the kind of power that could make someone stronger in such a short period of time."
"When I first met him, he was just a little fellow who had just stepped into this hidden world. He was inferior to many of my acolytes, but he had already displayed a bold side. With that level of power, he didn't back down when facing some small organizations."
"And the more she fought, the stronger she got!"
"The second time we met, she had already surpassed many of my apprentices and reached the level of a famous person in this secret world."
"Just when we thought that it was time for that person to lay low, that person had a conflict with the Night Council, which was at its peak at the time, because of an antique."
"No one had high hopes for her."
"But in the end?"
"That person cut through all obstacles and shattered the Night Council, which was at its peak. When everyone came back to their senses, that person had already far surpassed the so-called famous people. Even the mentors could not measure that person's strength. Then, that person disappeared again."
"Everyone was looking forward to her answer when she reappeared, but … she got married!"
Adams' face turned strange when he mentioned her marriage.
"Do you know how many young men who admired her were heartbroken when they heard the news of her marriage?"
Adams winked at Kieran with a teasing face.
"So, when Mary and I got divorced, they must have been happy?"
Kieran asked.
"Yes."
"They celebrated with fireworks for three days."
"Then …"
"She beat them up until they ran away like rats."
"On top of that, she announced that no one was allowed to disturb your life, so everyone thought you were just a normal person who lived off a woman."
Adams couldn't hold back his laughter as he recalled the scene back then.
"But after she was plotted against, your life was also shattered."
"Everyone is coveting that person's power."
"That person's power is too terrifying!"
"Before she appeared, we never thought such power existed. After she was nowhere to be found, they naturally set their eyes on you."
"But they didn't expect that even after she died, she was still so powerful."
"They paid the price, and they won't come after you in the near future."
Adams exclaimed again.
"So, you are in contact with my ex-wife?"
Kieran then asked about the key points.
"Yes."
"She left me a message."
Adams nodded.
"Do you know where my ex-wife is now?"
Kieran asked.
"Yes, she's at …"
"Ah! Ah! "
"The bodies are moving!"
"The bodies are moving!"
Just when Adams was about to speak, screams came from downstairs.
Adams, who was on crutches, quickly came to the window. When he saw the seven corpses stand up shakily from the ground, his face turned unusually ugly.
"The Night Council!"
Adams said through clenched teeth.
"I'm glad someone still remembers us."
"It's been a while, Adams.
"Seeing you in this half-dead state, I'm really too happy."
A gloomy voice sounded from outside the door, and almost at the same time, the door was pushed open.
A middle-aged man in a long robe walked in.
The other party's face was emaciated and there was almost no flesh on it. It was as if a layer of skin was pasted on top of a skull. Coupled with the loose robe, it made him look like a walking skeleton.
"Kadie!"
Adams looked at the skeleton-like man in front of him, his eyes overflowing with hatred. However, the hatred didn't make Adams lose his sanity.
He instinctively stood in front of Kieran, using his body to block Kieran's path. His hands were gathering some energy, and he used his body to push Kieran towards the window.
Facing Adams in such a state, the skeleton-like Caddy was disdainful.
"Adams, are you still the same person you were back then?"
Although you still have the title of teacher, your strength is only a little stronger than an apprentice, right?
"Do you think I'll care if you're just a little stronger than an acolyte?"
"Or do you think you can still escape?"
Kadie laughed coldly, his eyes skipped over Adams and landed on Kieran.
"You are that bastard's husband?
"Does he look ordinary?"
That bastard's taste is really unique, finding a commoner, or do you have some special abilities?
"But this is really good news for us."
Kadie laughed strangely, his laughter was filled with malicious intent.
"Aren't you afraid of that bastard's revenge?"
Adams shouted in a stern voice.
"Revenge?
Of course I am!
That's why I created chaos, distracting that bastard's attention. After I get the secrets of that bastard's power, what do I have to be afraid of?
Because I will only be stronger than that bastard!
"Now!"
Hand over all that bastard's belongings! "
A terrifying and ferocious expression appeared on Kaydi's skeletal face. A layer of faintly discernible black mist began to appear around his body.
The moment the black mist appeared, the temperature in the room plummeted.
The next moment, the black mist was thrown at Adams and Kieran.
Adams swung out the energy he gathered in his hand, but it only managed to block the black mist for a while before it dispersed.
Puk!
Adams spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the floor wobbling.
Adams' face was filled with despair when he felt the power of the black mist.
Even though Kieran behind him wasn't just any ordinary person, he was also very powerful.
However, against Kadie, the remaining member of the Night Council, he might not be able to hold his own, right?
Since that bastard's attention was diverted, he wouldn't be able to save Adams in a short period of time … 'Am I going to die here?'
Facing death, Adams was very unwilling to accept it.
He still had unfulfilled wishes!
Kadie laughed even more wildly when he saw Adams' despair and unwillingness.
Wasn't this what he had been waiting for?
Ever since he was chased out of Moon City by that woman, how long had it been since he felt this way?
A year? Two years?
Or even longer?
Kadie couldn't even remember.
But now!
That woman was dead!
Even after transforming into a special soul, she was still very powerful, but he was about to get his hands on that woman's secret, and he would be stronger than her.
He would bring the Night Council back to Moon City.
He would let those bastards who spoke ill of him feel the Fear of the Night!
He would let them … Huh?!
Just when Kadie was fantasizing about the future, he suddenly realized something was wrong.
That woman's husband was too calm before the special power.
Not just calm, but his calm gaze was also uncomfortable.
Looking at the powerful Kieran was like looking at a kid in kindergarten.
"You are really as annoying as that bastard!
I thought if you hand over that bastard's belongings, I'll let you die a quick death!
But now I've changed my mind!
I'll make you wish you were dead! "
Kadie shouted and swung his hand.
The black mist that solidified in the area swarmed towards Kieran again.
It was higher than Powerful but not Extreme.
So this was the so-called teacher of this world?
It was much weaker than he thought!
Kieran objectively analyzed the black mist that gushed at his face. With a single thought, an Extreme rank Devil Flame burned in the void.
The scorching air swirled around the room.
Then …
There was nothing else.
Kadie, together with the black mist, was burned to ashes by the Devil Flame.
An emerald green item floated out from the ashes.
However, Kieran acted like he didn't see it. He turned around and helped the dumbstruck Adams up.
"This kind of fire … This kind of fire …"
Adams seemed like he wanted to say something, but after a few words, he didn't know how to express himself. In the end, all he could do was smile bitterly.
"Have you reached the same level as that bastard?"
Adams asked Kieran.
Kieran didn't answer, instead, he looked at the door.
A mirage figure was floating in front of the door.
It was a young and beautiful woman. Even though the figure was illusory, it still attracted people's attention. Kieran was very familiar with her.
Kieran had seen her before in the morgue.
She was the ex-wife of his current identity.
"Adams, I want to talk to 2567. Can you give us an independent space?"
The illusory figure said.
"Of course."
Adams walked out without a second thought and closed the door behind him.
