Chapter 273 Black-haired elf with green eyes

After Amaria's act, she began to avoid prolonged eye contact with Adam, which gave her away, but the man decided to pretend to be blind, deaf, and mute. In such situations, it was necessary to let the woman think things through on her own, and eventually, she would find her way to the right answer. Meanwhile, Adam was training and also training Lina. She was working hard and becoming physically stronger. Adam had bought her several techniques from the system store that were relatively cheaper than the market.

Adam himself was gradually advancing to the next level of the Mortality Realm. He could feel his soul becoming stronger and already forming a World of Mind, although it was impossible to enter. Adam couldn't understand why because, in his opinion, the soul was already strong enough for him to enter. However, the only thing he could assume was that the souls of the Higher Realm were different. Perhaps this was why entities from the Lower Realm couldn't enter the Higher Realm.

"Keep your back straight, strike with the sword directly at vulnerable spots, such as the sides or armpits, if the opponent is in armor."

"Understood."

This time, Adam was being trained by his neighbor, a retired veteran. He was a little over two hundred years old, which could already be considered old age. Although in Adam's eyes, he was still just an ordinary child... compared to his body's age, of course. The veteran's name was Barlin. He was a very friendly old man, and although his age was respectable, his posture was straight, and his body was muscular. Not a single one of his movements was devoid of the aura of death.

Adam preferred the style of a mage, but Barlin explained that he needed to at least slightly improve his sword skills to at least an intermediate level. Adam had no objections. Leaning to the left, Adam dodged an attack aimed at his side, but in the next second, a dull pain ran through his legs, and he lost his balance and fell.

"Your skills are amazing, sir," Adam said admiringly.

"Hehe... you're good too. If it weren't for the restrictions on your magic, my old bones would be picked up in pieces later," Barlin said with a laugh.

"Well, what can you do..."

Barlin was at the level of the Mortality Realm, Condensing the Soul (4). He was strong, and Adam had something to learn from him. The old man had the style of a magical swordsman, which included the pure use of magic only to enhance physical indicators and for protective barriers, which were not so difficult to master. Adam would also like to use such a style if he were not strong enough in magic, but the fact was that his race was the most suitable for magic.

Thanking the old gentleman for the training, Adam said goodbye to him and began to walk home, which was very close, just a minute's walk away. It was already evening. Everyday life was indeed sweet, but it only made Adam feel uncomfortable. He was still curious about when he would see his wives.

"Amarantha... it's very risky, do you understand?"

The matter was in the city of Sedyon, which was already considered one of the main cities of the Kingdom of Avalonia. The mayor's mansion was a bit noisy. Although the mayor had changed in fact, the mansion still belonged to Adam, so the current mayor moved his mansion to another place. In Adam's mansion, along with his things scattered on the bed, stood very familiar girls.

Amarantha, Veronica, nymphs, Sierra, Elizabeth, and Nirena. They were all looking at one woman - Amarantha.

"Strange... one coincidence is fine, but a second time is too much... Something must have happened..." The last time he felt something similar, Amaria appeared. And now... his face showed shock.

"Could one of the girls have made it here? Most likely, it's either Amarantha or Sierra. The others definitely can't come here yet," Adam thought, and he was excited. Although he wanted to go to the capital as soon as possible to check if he was right, he still needed to take care of some problems first.

"I need to prepare..." Returning home, Adam did not ask for breakfast to be made for him and went to the bedroom to meditate and restore his magical energy. It took five hours. His magical energy was expended by 90%, leaving him with only a few small cubes. He couldn't understand what the problem was. After all, he was just walking home, and then he received magical energy exhaustion, which was not normal. But any ideas were cut short - everything didn't match up.

Lina and Amaria watched as Adam slept in the bedroom. It was clear that he was very tired, having decided to skip dinner. "He's trying so hard... I'm afraid his health might get worse," Lina muttered in a worried voice.

"I've seen his training. It's very tough and pushes you to the limits of your abilities," Amaria muttered and then snorted. "But, it seems, this monster only benefits from it. He's getting stronger not by the day, but by the hour."

"You're right..." Lina unconsciously compared her training pace and knew she was far behind. She couldn't help but admire him.

"He is a worthy role model!"

"Pfft, if everyone followed him, they'd be dead by the second day of training..." Amaria had seen with her own eyes how he released staggering power from his magical energy and forced his muscles and cells to work at full capacity, which could lead to serious problems in the future.

However, as if defying logic, his body did not react to this, and even after such tricks, he was fine. This made Amaria's jaw drop to the floor. She couldn't believe that the existence of such a monster was even legal!

"Now I understand what kind of talent he can develop if he works on himself instead of paperwork," Amaria thought, twisting the corners of her mouth. Her impression of Adam remained at the level of a weak and not very talented demon practitioner in terms of practice, but a very talented manager.

But now she was convinced that having entered the Higher Realm, he had been freed from unnecessary restrictions and was working at full capacity. "Maybe he really will be our hope," Amaria thought.

She knew about the plan of the higher beings. Since Adam was a special person who was rumored to be blessed by the Ancient God, everyone wanted him. The Queen of the Witches decided to use him as a hammer to break into the Higher Realm after analyzing his DNA from traces of white liquid on the sheet... don't ask where she got it from.

And it turned out that he had the most suitable physique for this task. In the end... "Our plan succeeded. Although, I doubt he's very happy about it," Amaria thought, and her eyes sparkled. "Maybe I should reward him?"
