《Rise of the death seeking emperor》5- Talk with Vermin and Damon

Advertisement

As Vermin began looking through his body, her eyes full of worry, a guy who was a few meters away from Adel was clenching his teeth in anger, which didn't go unnoticed from Adel, as he was unconsciously scanning everything around him due to his advanced senses.

'Isn't this too cliche? So he's the one who paid that man to kill me due to his jealousy of me being close to her. The 7 emotions surely do marvels on mortals.

Also, it's a little weird now that I think about it, why would she be so close to someone so trashy like me? I know this guy had no talent so what's the reason?' As Adel was frowning due to his skepticisms, he looked through his memories only to see one of which he was around 5 years old, where both were playing in the forest when unexpectedly a beast attacked, but then Adel moved in to save her as he killed the beast.

'*Sigh*, can't this get more cliche? She fell in love with him that time and swore to always protect him like he had protected her back then right? *Sigh*, what a love-struck fool.' He shook his head as he sighed again.

Back in Adel's soul...

' That love of hers... *Sigh*, and what's Damon doing here too? Again, more people that are out of my plans are getting involved... This isn't good, but his memories are sealed too! Well, we did have this animosity back then due to him courting Vermin, but then he forgot about her somehow and got his harem...'The figure chuckled as it thought about the harem Damon had...

Back in the real world...

'But surely though, this boy is 16 years old and doesn't know anything about the opposite sex? And he's been her friend since 5 years old, and they haven't interacted that much even after all the devotion she's shown him, so how does this make sense?

Sometimes it's better not to think too much, as his memories weren't altered so there's no way someone intentionally made it like this.' As soon as this thought passed his mind though, a bit of spiritual sense that he regenerated unconsciously used minds arts in himself, which brought another memory right through his eyes, that had a young girl who seemed 3 years old, accompanied with an old woman who seemed to be in her sixties.

"Are you sure that his memories aren't gonna change the least? And restrained of our meeting until he reached the sage realm?

I really wanna play with him more but I can't due to his parents' situation. But at least I got to be his future fiance. " Sighed the girl sadly, but then giggled at the end.

When the old woman saw her, she shook her head and said with a smile:" Don't worry, it'll only make it so that he doesn't get any interest in mortals, or women even once he enters the first plane, and his personality will only change due to him being dense so he wouldn't care much about other sex' interaction."

As soon as she finished her words, the memory ended.

Adel who looked at everything was speechless by her behavior, and when he thought it couldn't get any more cliche, he ended up with this.

But then he suddenly remember something: 'Due to my mind reading arts, I was able to see that memory... That means that mind-reading arts do still have a place for progress!' Thought Adel excitedly...

-

In Adel's soul...

' Wait... They did 'that'..? But surely they found a loophole then... they wouldn't be able to do it otherwise...

It's the only explanation I can get by seeing this memory of his... Also, his mind-reading arts terrifyingly evolved in Earth...'The figure sighed as it got back to its place.

-

Back in the real world...

A loud shout then suddenly broke Adel out of his thoughts.

"Adel! What happened? Why aren't you answering me? And how's your body?" Vermin shook Adel's body around as she looked over his injuries.

"Sorry... I was lost in my thoughts... As for what happened that man over there..."He then signaled to the dead body that he penetrated with the knife" He tried to kill me... But what I don't know what happened as I was blinded by a light and then the knife penetrated his chest..."Said Adel slowly with a speck of mind-reading arts to make the explanation sound reasonable to Vermin, as his body was still being shaken by Vermin.

"What?! Who wanted to kill you? I'll kill him straight away whoever that bastard is!" Said Vermin loudly for everyone near her to hear, even the guy who was hiding behind the wall heard her.

"That... What I saw before...was the man first got some money and the knife from that guy..." As he motioned towards the guy that was hidden behind the wall, he continued "And then... he came and... nearly stabbed my neck.."As he said that, Vermin turned around with violent killing intent, but that only looked like child's play in comparison to Adel's.

Then she looked towards the guy who was hidden behind the wall and then, in a flash appeared before him, and said loudly for both him and Adel to hear.

"You... It's you! Damon! Why did you try to kill him? "Vermin was shocked as she saw the man before her, it was none other than a traveling young man who courted her ever since she was with Adel, but she couldn't care less about him, as she only placed her eyes on Adel, who in Damon's eyes was nothing but trash due to his talents on cultivation.

"I mean duh! I tried to kill him because you never paid attention to me! Only him! Why is that! Why only that trash!" Said Damon loudly as he gritted his teeth when he recalled the disparity between her treatment to him and Adel.

"You...Shut up! Why do I have to care about you? You... *Sigh* "Vermin then shook her head and then murmured something impossible for both Damon and Adel to hear, but only possible to Adel as the figure allowed it to be heard to him: "I wish he could notice my feelings, though this backward country is trash. I wish he could just leave with me to the country where my clan resides in, as his talents are anything but bad since even I can't discern them... but he isn't noticed by anyone here. Well, I either kill or ignore this Damon guy, but that would have to make me do some other choices... "

Adel was tight-lipped at her words as he finally knew how much love-struck she was...

But then he was shocked to the core when he heard her last words, about how she knew about his talents...

'How? Is she suppressing her powers even further than that? But that's impossible!' He then shook his head as he weirdly didn't think too much about it...

'No, it's impossible, she is only hiding her power at this level and not at the mortal realm level because if not I wouldn't be able to use spiritual sense without her knowing it.

Forget it, she's thinking of killing him for me? But that would bring more trouble, also if I quit the clan then go to another country to get enough resources to start cultivating, then I might as well follow her?' He suddenly thought of something and then waved at Vermin to come to him.

"What's up? Is it getting worse? Should I bring you back ?" Asked Vermin as she looked around his body only to find a scratch on his neck, then she was confused as to why he waved his hand at her.

"Not that ... Actually now that he killed me and even those nearby people heard us, I might not be able to return to my clan since my clan can't afford to offend his family over a negligible servant like me, so do you have any idea over somewhere else safe? I remember you only coming here 4 months every year, so you might have a better place than my clan, or if you don't want to then it's fine, I can..." As he was about to continue further, Vermin stopped him as she was delighted that he finally thought of going away with her.

"Yeah, sure come with m, and I'll be able to introduce you to my family, and they can support you enough to cultivate! " She replied excitedly, but when she discovered her misstep she coughed awkwardly.

"Sorry, it's just you constantly told me you never wanted to cultivate since you don't have talent, and I was glad to think you changed your mind over it...

Nonetheless, since you aren't that injured let's hurry up and get your everything and get where I am going! That place is really fun and you'll know it once we arrive ." She awkwardly said as she was trying to avert the topic.

"Okay, fine. But then I don't wanna stay in your family compound... You know they might not like me, due to my talents... " said Alen in an awkward manner, as If hinting at his trash talents.

Vermin on the other hand sighed in relief when she saw him not pressing on the topic, but then frowned when she heard his other words, but then she said in an excited posture " No! Don't worry about it, in my family compound, they don't mind talent, as they only say (Effort wins over Talent)"

Damon who was standing there, frowned when he saw that he was ignored, but when he heard her last words he burst out laughing "Effort wins over talent my ass! If that was true wouldn't there be many experts everywhere if they work hard without talent? That's just nonsense! He's just trash and he'll stay trash his whole life!"

When Vermin heard his words, she frowned and turned to him and stared at him with murderous intent, and said "You know you should be appreciative enough that I didn't kill you when you attempted to kill Adel, but then you're ridiculing my family's words! "

As she was about to go over and do some non-fixable damage to him, Adel grabbed her shoulder and shook his head, saying: We don't want others pursuing us everywhere, so just don't mind him, no one cares about his words anyway.

Also, don't worry about it, he'll have the fun of his life in the future."

What Vermin and Damon didn't know was that he truly didn't want to proceed with the cliche plot and make a challenge with him in the future, or her killing him and his family pursuing them in return.

So he sent a little bit of his last spiritual sense in a poisonous manner to kill him slowly in a matter that doesn't bring suspicions to him...

Little did he know though, that the spiritual energy didn't work at all, instead it allowed Damon, to discover the truth and started cultivating in his way out of this plane, forgetting about Adel and Vermin for now...
