Chapter 442 - Loose End



"I won\'t let you get away from me. I have chased your shadow for so long and you seem to be able to get away with everything. Just who the hell are you and what is going on in the world?" 

"I don\'t care if you are a cultivator, superhuman or whatever you want to call yourself. If you threaten the peace of this city, I will come after you"

Angela Valdez was determined to catch Adam, and she was unsure what exactly she wanted to do with him or say to him.

Their last meeting was when Adam formed an alliance with the NYPD Head and at that time, the Sentinels Faction was yet to truly be formed and Adam still wasn\'t much of a threat to the country.

However, at that moment, it was almost as if he was untouchable by her or any other official organisation or government.

It was the powers that were behind the government and the military that were keeping an eye on him, while she was still yet to decide whether Adam was good or not.

He killed and did as he pleased within the city and was also too powerful to exist.

Seeing him disappear and appear in the blink of an eye and his killing intent that could cause anyone to instantly lose consciousness was enough for her to see him as a monster.

And yet his red eyes appealed to her and she also felt both scared and attracted towards him.

She didn\'t know what to feel or think about him, but she wanted to see him for herself after disappearing for an entire year.

There had been no trace of him that entire year, no matter how hard she looked, and in that time she had formed quite a few contacts and was able to access the cultivator information stream.

In it, she heard that a red-eyed individual had taken on an army of cultivators along and taken over the city, while was also the leader of that faction she had been hearing about in the city.

It was clear to her that it was Adam, and she wanted to see just how much he had changed.

From what she heard, he killed many during that battle and didn\'t want to allow such an individual to act as he pleased.

By the time she reached him, Adam could have run a lap around the entire city if he pleased, but he was comfortably eating his food, was relaxed as he leaned back on the sofa he sat on.

The kind old lady that ran the cafe was very accommodating and after the large sum of money that Adam gave her, which saved her store on the verge of closing down, she was even more accommodating.

"Could you make another coffee please granny? A visitor should be coming soon,"

"Sure is that all"

"Yes, and this should be enough to cover it," he said as he placed another ten thousand dollars on the counter.

To her, it was a life-changing sum of money that Adam was giving away so carelessly, but to Adam, it was an insignificant amount of money, and money was the last thing on his mind.

Seeing how grateful and happy she was because of it, Adam couldn\'t help but smile slightly and remembered when all he ever wanted was money so that he could pay his aunt\'s medical bills.

While the old lady was preparing the coffee and carrying it over to Adam\'s table, Angela, who had parked around the corner and was hoping to catch Adam by surprise, charged into the small cafe with a gun in her hand.

Her sudden entrance and aiming of a gun in her direction caused the old lady to lose balance and as she was about to fall backwards and spill the coffee on herself, Adam caught her.

"Come on, you nearly caused this granny to fall over and such a fall would be fatal at such an age" 

Taking the coffee out of her hand and placing it on the table, Adam helped her back over to the chair behind the counter and helped her calm down, while he reassured her that there was nothing to be afraid of.

He treated the old lady with the utmost respect and such a kind individual, who had also mentioned all her struggles to Adam, deserved to be treated in such a manner.

While doing so, he paid no heed to Angela, who held a gun and was beginning to feel as though she was the aggressor.

"Sit down and put the gun away"

Adam spoke calmly and normally, and didn\'t even need to use the Charm Skill for Angela\'s body to move without thinking.

Her body instinctively felt fear when thinking about everything she had seen Adam do, and did as he said.

"You know a gun won\'t be of much use against me and you scared the old lady. You should definitely apologise, but for now, sit down and drink the coffee she made for you. " 

It was as though her body was moving on its own free will and she sat opposite to Adam with a frustrated and confused expression.

"So, how can I help you this early in the morning?" asked Adam as he continued eating what was left of his food.

"I want to know where you have been this past year. How you became so powerful and also would like all the information you have about cultivators and the faction that you are a part of"

Adam couldn\'t help but laugh at her request and she instantly became angry as he did so.

"I am enforcing my power over you as a detective to get the information I need for my case. If you do not cooperate..."

She attempted to threaten Adam, but seeing that he was still laughing and realising how stupid what she was saying was, she stopped talking.

Adam was slightly annoyed by her and felt that she was becoming a loose end that wasn\'t learning her lesson.

"This is the perfect time to get rid of you for good"
