Chapter 12 Acceptance
The next night, Adam still didn't look for Adel.
He also needs to be more anxious, so he needs to drag him out for a while, let him suffer for a while.
Of course, it can't be delayed for too long, otherwise Adel will completely collapse and cause any problems, and it will be a trouble to subdue him.
So Adam decided to wait until tomorrow night to meet Adel again.
Adam left a message in the cellar mentioning that he had a way to cover up the anomaly, and then said that he would go to him when he had time.
Create a sense of mystery and then hold on to Adel's fears to transform this guy into his own power.
Fiddling with the paintings on the table, which were already a little cracked, Adam greeted Maggie Aris, glanced at Lina, who was still asleep, and went out.
Entering through the side door, he greeted the passing monk with a smile on his face.
The name of every monk, Adam remembered, included their position, and inadvertently showed some liking.
This allowed Adam to be able to chat for a conversation or two after saying hello.
Although there were still some monks who did not like Adam, such as Brother Rob in the Defense, or some aristocratic monks who valued their origins very seriously.
But many monks began to recognize Adam, Adam's diligence and studious eyes were in their eyes, coupled with Adam's affinity, speaking skills and handsome appearance, many monks had a good impression of Adam.
Even Brother Jim, who had been bargaining with Adam, was able to say a few more words to Adam.
After all, Adam is a student of Alva, although he is only a civilian, but as long as he studies hard, he can also get a good social status, and he still has to have a good relationship.
Monks are human beings, and although they have faith, they also have their own needs.
Like Fla who, although he refused to be courted by the nobles and some things were not human, no one ever troubled him.
Because everyone actually knows more or less that the monk is very optimistic about Fra.
Speaking of hera, Adam realized that he hadn't seen her for some time, and that he had barely seen the monk since she had brought him to church.
Noting this, Adam began his studies and work.
It's still a day's chores, but from today onwards, when Alva tells Adam to mix materials, he will already talk about the role of various materials, and when he does it, he will also slightly mention a sentence or two of skills.
Adam turned his head and looked at the room where the chief monk was in the distance, thinking for a moment.
Alva still can't remember his name, which means that he still looks down on himself, and people with his personality rarely force themselves.
"Unless someone says something to him, and Fra hasn't been to church lately, is that the monk?" Adam didn't quite know why.
"Is it my behavior these days that has earned his approval?" Adam still has a certain self-understanding, he has a strong affinity, animals seem to be born with a good impression of him, even if humans are prejudiced against him at first, they will think he is a good person under contact.
But for now, there is a limit to this affinity, for an old man like the chief monk, or someone like Alva who can see through the essence of a person's actions.
Even if Adam maximized his aura of affinity, they could still smell the scum on Adam's body.
There are always some people who can see the essence through the phenomenon.
The chief monk was such a person, and Adam could be sure that although the other party did not discover the identity of the werewolf, he also knew his purpose for approaching Fra.
"So you want to redeem me?" Adam smiled, not commenting on it.
Time flew by, and as Alva staggered away with the bottle in his hand, Adam lowered his head and began to sweep the garbage collection tools.
"It's been three days since I took Adel's things, and during this time Adel has fallen into anxiety, and some problems will definitely be exposed, if in this case, he is still not arrested, it means that the church really has no eyes on him, and he can be contacted further. ”
Adam really wants to subdue Adel and expand his own power, but he will not ignore the risks behind it, just to subdue a person, and expose himself, that is more than worth the loss.
"There are four days left on the night of the full moon. Returning to the attic, Adam looked up at the sky, and once again transformed, he could feel the power of his own blood pulsing and jumping, as if something would burst out in the next moment.
Jumping out of the attic, Adam quickly disappeared into the block, only this time he didn't immediately enter the slum, but lifted his transformation and pulled out a monk's robe.
Brother Jim was the church's purchaser, and Adam had to negotiate with him frequently about the procurement of materials for the frescoes, and it was not difficult to get a new monk's uniform in the process, and it did not arouse any suspicion.
Anyway, Jim himself didn't know how much material the card wanted, and one less monk's suit wouldn't attract attention.
Adam then put on a dusty mask and made it out of mural materials, but without adding paint, the overall style looks strange and mysterious.
Afraid of meeting someone who knows how to do it, Adam also disguised the mask to a certain extent, as long as he didn't bring this thing to Alva's face, it is estimated that no one would be able to see that the mask was made of mural materials.
"The key to subduing Adel is not in force, but in his fear, which is a sharp blade that can help me pierce all of Adel's defenses. ”
"Of course, it's not like I don't have any ability to fight back except for transformation. "Entering a state of full awareness, Adam will become very sensitive to everything around him, and fighting people may quickly expose his lack of strength.
"But it's okay to just face temptation and pretend to be mysterious. ”
"Ahem, cough, cough......" Adam coughed a few times, then disguised his voice in a diacritical way, wearing platform shoes to disguise his height, and when everything was ready, he followed the route that had been planned for a long time to Adel's house.
At this time, the whites of Adel's eyes were covered with bloodshots, and the whole person was haggard and frightened, and he was restless.
In order not to arouse suspicion, he went to cut wood a few days ago, but in a trance, he slashed at his feet with an axe, cutting off two of his toes.
Although he was able to rest at home, the more free time he had, the more he couldn't help but think about it.
Putting his finger on his mouth and biting wildly, even the blood splashed on his face still didn't stop, Adel kept thinking about who that person was.
Why did he look for me? Why did he take my notes? Why did he know that I went to church? What was he going to do to me? Was the method he said to cover up the anomaly true? Why didn't that person come to me yet?
Too many questions surrounded Adel's mind, causing him to fall into endless anxiety.
Until there was a knock on the door, an unspeakable impact pierced Adel's mind, leaving his mind blank and he gave up thinking.
He didn't know how he opened the door, and even the scenery in front of him was nothing, he only vaguely remembered that he threw himself over, and then his foot hurt and the whole person lost his balance.
When his mind came back to his mind again, he was already lying outside the door, and the mysterious man in the clergy's uniform and mask was already sitting in his chair, looking at him condescendingly.
Adam's mouth under the mask was cocked, and the affinity of the past was emanated in a different way, and it was an indescribable oppressive force.
Everything was really going well, Adel was injured, and Adam, who was at the door, had already analyzed this important information.
From his room came the smell of blood, and it was peculiar, not like the blood of a living man, but like the rotting blood of a dead man, with a foul stench.
The most important thing is that there is some discarded gauze on the side.
So after knocking on the door, Adam took a few steps back and didn't stand in the doorway, locking the other man's injured foot as soon as Adel came out.
In a state of full perception, coupled with early preparation, Adam dodged Adel's pounce and stepped on the opponent's wound by the way.
Adel's pounce can no longer be said to be a temptation, it is simply a send.
"It seems that the heart-attacking tactics have worked. Adam curled the corners of his mouth and thought that no matter how powerful the power was, it would take an effective mind to harness it.
As long as this thinking is crushed, then the other party is just a target like the walking dead.
Looking at Adel condescendingly, Adam knew in his heart that he had already subdued this blood slave.
