Chapter 279: Transcended

Chapter 279: Transcended



A few hours ago, a few seconds after the appearance of the world announcement.

'I guess there is no hiding it.' Adam thought to himself. 'This will bring some heat in my direction, but fuck it.'

After his thoughts, Calamity's body evaporated into pixels, and on the place of his corpse, a couple of skill and spell scrolls appeared.

One of the scrolls was the Thousand-Arm Monster of Armageddon transformation skill!

It glowed with a slight hue of gold as it was a legendary-ranked skill.

Then, there was a brownish pouch filled with shinecoins.

After picking it up and transferring them to his interface, a shocking amount of shinecoins appeared on his account!

[+1,675,566 Shinecoins!]

'Why was he carrying so many shinecoins?' Adam wondered and then thought about a possibility.

'He must've gone and taken his share of slavery/underground money before coming here to do the speech. Lucky me, I guess.'

After storing the scrolls, he decided to check them out later.

He wasn't sure whether he was going to use the Thousand-Arm Monster of Armageddon skill for himself.

It was powerful, sure, but it didn't work with his fighting style.

'I could use it and have it as my trump card.' Adam thought with a shrug of his shoulders.

However, his share of surprises didn't end.

Ding, ding!

[The Rain of the Blessing has rewarded you after your victory!]

'Oh right, the reward.' Adam looked in the air, awaiting the reward.

[You're transcending!]

[Calculating your strength...]

"Yusriyah, the Queen of Gambling." The short-haired woman said. "I am in control of Sevenfold's largest gambling district. My faction is the biggest earner of the four ruling

kingdoms."

Waleed and Khashifa didn't change their expressions, but their eyebrows clearly twitched. They didn't like that she was already boasting about how useful she was. "There's also Fakhir, the King of the Slavery, but unfortunately, he seems to be late to the meeting." Waleed said. "Now that you've taken the throne for yourself, we could discuss

some business."

"I saw that you took Calamity's share of our business." Yusriyah said. "That's only the pleasure district's share. He felt exhausted after his journey here, so he went there to relax

and took his share as well.

"With all four kingdoms combined, your share would be immense, and that shall be yours, as long you're willing to offer us your protection."

"Oh, is that so?" Adam chuckled.

"By the way, that's only a month's worth." Waleed said with a proud smile. "In a year's time,

you could make more money than you ever dreamed of."

"Hmm..." Adam stood silently, thinking about something.

At that moment, he heard a thrilled voice. "Adam!" Raquel came running in, a giant smile on her face. "You did it!"

However, her bubbly excitement slowly died down as she noticed the three people, and

quickly hid behind Adam.

"Traitors!" Raquel screamed. "You betrayed my family and our entire race!"

"Raquel Starborn, still alive," Khashifa giggled. "I heard that Fakhir captured you. You were supposed to become my new toy in the pleasure district. How did you escape?"

"Grr..." Raquel turned to Adam and shouted. "These three betrayed everyone for profit and money. They're also culprits of everyone's misery!"

"Silent down, kid." Waleed said coldly. "Adults are talking. Like I said, if you give us your protection, we can give you anything you want."

"Adam..." Raquel looked at him in shock. "You couldn't possibly be thinking about..."

From the end of the street, the Originals walked, excitement in their faces as they all believed

that their misery was over.

The days of the pain were over!

"So, what's your answer?" Waleed asked with a smile.

"Hmm..." Adam looked over to the street and saw Otis returning with his family, all smiles.

At that moment, Raquel grabbed his arm and pleaded. "Please don't betray us too. If you do, I don't think any of us can handle that."

Adam smiled, shook his head, and patted her on the head. "Come on. I just gave them a chance

to say their final words."

"S-sir?" Waleed's eyes widened in surprise.

Raquel looked at him starry-eyed and then saw him pull his greatsword.

With a swing, the three rulers of the underground got cut into million pieces. Not a single

piece of them was left intact.
