"In these two months, all the curses that appeared near Caria City have been dealt with."
Holding the manual in his hand, Adil looked at the dense handwriting on it and the large amount of crossed out content. He felt a headache coming on.
According to Adil's personality, he had not been idle in these two months. On the contrary, he had done many things during this time.
In terms of recovering his strength, with the help of Leon's influence, Adil had collected a large amount of usable precious materials. He had even obtained a batch of cursed items with special effects. He had used all of them on himself, making his body even more powerful. Now, he was at the level of a peak Grand Knight.
His physical training was the same, and he did not slack off when it came to harvesting World Energy. Ever since he had returned that day, there had not been a single day that he had been idle. Whenever he had time, he would either use it to nourish this body or search for various curses outside.
With his current strength, even without using his spiritual force, he was comparable to an official Magus. Ordinary newborn curses were not a threat to him at all, and he could easily deal with them one by one.
However, this way, after a long time, the curses in the city were almost completely dealt with.
The birth of curses was very difficult, and it was not something that could be born just because one wanted to. Moreover, Caria City was just an ordinary city, with a population of only a few hundred thousand. Even if he counted the ancient curses that had been passed down in the past, the number of curses that remained was very small. After Leylin's frequent hunting, the number of curses that remained was very small.
"Looks like it's time to take a look at other places."
Looking at the manual in his hand that had been mostly crossed out, Adil shook his head. He handed the manual to the guard in black and prepared to walk back to his residence.
At this time, their residence had long since been changed. It was no longer the old house that he had been in when he had first arrived, but a newly built luxurious villa. Not only was the interior luxurious, the environment was beautiful, and there were all kinds of servants. There was no need for Adil's family to worry about anything.
After returning to his residence, Adil walked into the hall under the respectful gazes of the servants. He saw Tilly, dressed in loose white clothes, lying on the sofa in Silence. She held a newspaper in her hand and seemed to be living a comfortable life.
From Adil's point of view, he could easily see the curves of Tilly's chest, her fair skin, and the curves of her youthful body, all of which were faintly discernible under her loose clothes.
Looking at this scene, Adil shook his head inwardly. He could not help but cough lightly to show his existence.
In front of him, Tilly subconsciously raised her head and covered her chest with one hand. She looked behind her, and only when she saw that it was Adil did she let out a light sigh of relief. She patted her chest and seemed a bit nervous. "It's you, Ximu. Why didn't you say anything when you came in? I didn't react at all."
"I saw that you were lying there seriously, so I didn't disturb you." Looking at Tilly's expression, Adil smiled. "What's wrong? Don't you have to go to school today?"
"School? Why would I have to go to school?" Tilly shook her head and stretched lazily. "If I can lie at home, why would I go out to suffer?"
Hearing this, the corner of Adil's mouth twitched. He was somewhat speechless.
Ever since the conditions at home had improved, Tilly and Coral's true nature had gradually been revealed. Perhaps it was because there was no pressure on them to survive, or because they had better conditions.
Coral, on the other hand, was better off. After becoming the sheriff, he had become more and more dignified. Nowadays, he ran to the police station every day and spent more time in meetings than he did on missions. He had become an official fanatic.
As for Tilly, she was completely lying down. From then on, she had everything she needed and lived the life of a spoiled young lady. The number of times she went to school had decreased. Even when she did go to school, she didn't attend classes seriously. Instead, she relied on her relationship with Adil to listen to the flattery of a group of noble ladies. She didn't have the mood to study at all.
Thinking about how she was now compared to the diligent and hardworking Tilly that his body remembered, Adil was speechless.
"Indeed, children from poor families matured early. The same person is completely different in a different environment."
Looking at Tilly, who was lying on the sofa, reading the newspaper and eating fruits, Adil was speechless, but he didn't say anything.
After confirming that there was nothing going on at home, he prepared to leave and go to his daily training ground.
"Oh, right."
As if suddenly remembering something, Tilly suddenly said, "A while ago, Teresa came to look for me. She wants to see you one day."
Adil's footsteps paused. He turned around and asked, "When?"
"As soon as possible." Tilly thought for a moment before saying, "She seems to be in a hurry. Not long ago, she personally came to look for you. It's just that you weren't home."
"Ask her to come to me tomorrow," Adil said, and then continued to walk out, ready to go to his own training ground.
The next day.
In a quiet room, Teresa, who had not been seen for a long time, walked out, bringing with her a unique scent of perfume.
It could be seen that she had specially dressed up today. Not only was she wearing a bright red dress, the makeup on her face was even more exquisite. Coupled with her beautiful appearance and unique temperament, it was unforgettable and breathtaking.
"Long time no see."
Seeing Teresa walk in, Adil got up and smiled at her.
"It has indeed been a long time. Looking at Adil, Teresa opened her mouth, but in the end, she also revealed a smile, looking exquisite and moving.
After the two of them sat down, without any unnecessary chatter, Adil went straight to the point and asked, "I heard from Tilly that you have something urgent to talk to me about. May I ask what it is?"
Teresa was taken aback. She was not used to such a direct style. She then reacted and said hesitantly, "Erm, you should know about that thing on me, right?"
"I know a little." Adil nodded. He didn't hide this.
During this period of time, he had completely understood Teresa's identity through Lyon.
She was a core member of an Awakened family, but the spiritual energy in her bloodline was not strong, so she could only barely become a low-level shaman.
Moreover, her family had experienced some sort of mishap when she was young. Not only did it cause the entire family to suffer heavy losses, but even she herself was haunted by a curse. All these years, she had been relying on the power of a cursed object to suppress it. That was why she did not die prematurely and lived until now.
Adil had also come into contact with the curse on her body.
When the curse broke out in Holy Grace Academy, the curse on her body was also triggered. If it wasn't for Adil suppressing it for her, she would have died.
"I want to ask you to help me get rid of the curse on my body." Taking a deep breath, as if she had made up her mind, Teresa pleaded, "In return, I can give you anything you want."
"Anything is fine?" Adil smiled and asked pointedly after hearing Darissa's words.
"Yes, I can give you anything." Teresa seemed to have thought of something and blushed, but her tone was extremely firm. "As long as I have it, I can give it to you."
"Okay." Hearing this, Adil smiled. "I heard that every Spirit Shaman family has a treasure vault that is used to store all kinds of resources for Spirit Shamans to increase their Spirit Power, as well as all kinds of cursed items."
"This is my condition," he said. He opened his mouth and said, "Let me enter your family's treasury to take something. This is my condition."
"This condition?" Hearing Adil's condition, Teresa was stunned for a moment before she reacted and fell into deep thought.
After a long time, she raised her head and looked at Adil. "I need to go back and ask my father. I will give you an answer in three days."
"Okay." Adil nodded. He did not care about these three days.
In fact, the reason why he wanted to enter her family's treasury was to try his luck.
Shamans, as a Transcendent power in this world, had their own unique abilities.
Anything that had a certain amount of value to a shaman was usually not simple in itself. It was basically a precious resource unique to this world.
The reason why Adil wanted to enter her family's treasury was to take a look at these precious materials and see if he could find something useful to him.
Soon, he had an answer. Three days later, Teresa sent someone to inform him that she had partially agreed to Adil's condition.
The reason why it was partially agreed was because although her family allowed Adil to enter the treasury, they did not allow Adil to take away some of the precious items in the treasury. He was only allowed to take away some ordinary items.
Although Adil was not satisfied with this result, he could accept it. Thus, the day after he received the answer, he boarded a private car and headed to Teresa's family's encampment.
"Is it here?"
Several days later, in an ancient manor, under the guidance of a few old men, Adil walked to a spacious basement.
Although it was a basement, it was not dark. There were lights constantly lighting up everywhere, illuminating the surroundings as if it was daytime.
The decorations were very luxurious. Along the way, Adil saw a large pile of gemstones embedded in the surroundings, but they were only part of the decoration.
"We're here."
At the end of a certain place, in front of him, a white-bearded old man who was leading the way stopped in his tracks and bowed his head to Adil beside him. "This is the entrance to the secret vault. You can go in directly."
"The few of us will stand guard outside. If you need anything, just give us a shout."
