Age of Adepts

Chapter 139



The man was masculine and hearty and the girl was seductive and charming; a grand show of eroticism was about to occur.

But the two performers didn’t throw themselves into the show enthusiastically, and the words quickly exchanged between them would make anyone who heard them speechless.

“Hey, that thing on your body is so hard! You’ve hurt me…”

“Hmph! If you dare to bite me, I’ll blow you away from here!”

“Alright, alright! Don’t be mad… anyhow, the smell of your blood is getting sweeter, I just can’t help but wish to taste it!”

Mary was now kneeling and sitting intimately on top of Greem’s body, while he was sitting half way up from the bed. Her juicy lips had just left his shoulder and she was touching her pair of tiny fangs and complaining about the pain. Meanwhile, a small Fire Shield that had suddenly burst out was hovering on top of Greem’s shoulder; the fierce flames had just subsided.

One of Greem’s hand was gently stroking Mary’s back while the other hand was pressing against her lower abdomen. Both hands were now glowing faintly with red light. With a single thought, the explosion of Fire Elementium could blow Mary away from his body.

“Greem, the smell coming from your body is getting tastier! Couldn’t you please let me taste just a little bit? Just one tiny little bite will do…” Mary brought her tongue to her lips. She couldn’t bear it and kept trying to enchant the man.

Because… because in just the short period of half a year, they had repeatedly sensed it at least three or four times!

Damn it, since when did the Pseudo-Adept stage became so easy to achieve? How were there so many new Pseudo-Adepts appearing in front of them!

To be honest, Madwoman and Hawkeye had no opinion with regards to any outsiders who became Pseudo-Adepts. However, when, one after another, ‘familiar’ people around them suddenly became Pseudo-Adepts, yet it had been so long for them and they had hardly obtained any critical breakthroughs; this was the main reason why they hated and were jealous to their bones!

Just as they joined forces and barely held up the brutal and violent spiritual pressure coming from Alice, they heard footsteps coming from inside the tower behind them. It was Greem and Mary who walked out side by side.

Alice suddenly retracted her spiritual pressure. Then she threw her cold glance onto Greem’s face like a razor-sharp blade. Madwoman and Hawkeye, who were struggling miserably from the pressure, instantly felt the burden lift. Without hesitation, they quickly moved backwards and gave way to Greem. Though their hearts were filled with hate, when the two Pseudo-Adepts, Greem and Mary, made their appearance, they couldn’t help but breathe out a sigh of relief.

The spiritual ripples of Alice and Greem collided in midair. Then they retracted it at the same time.

She had become a Pseudo-Adept!

He had also advanced into the realm of Pseudo-Adepts!

An astonishment of unknown sentiment surged up in both hearts at the same time.

Compared to the past, both of them had significant changed, from their outward appearance to their temperament. However, there was no way they could fake their spiritual ripple. Therefore, just through brief contact, they immediately realized the transformation of their opponent. Of course, what had changed and what remained the same was still obvious, as always, which made both of them gnash their teeth in hatred!

“Are you here to have another fight with me or are you here to fulfill your pledge?” Greem crossed his arms on his chest, touching his clean chin with one hand. Following the improvement of his overall strength, his self-confidence had taken a leap; together with that, his personal charisma had increased significantly as well.

“I’m here to, of course, I’m here to… to…” Initially, Alice, who had come with an imposing manner, had intended to flaunt her prowess. However, when faced with Greem, who was not any weaker than her, for some unknown reason, she actually lost some of her confidence. “Last time was just an accident, this… if you can defeat me this time, I’ll be sincerely convinced!”

“Are you sure this is the last time? And there won’t be a fourth time, or fifth time…” Greem tilted his body forward slightly, so he sent forth a stronger sense of pressure.

“Bullsh… Nonsense! You only defeated me once… the first time I was defeated because of the sneak attack that came from that rascal female vampire. That didn’t count…” Though she realized her oppressive air was weakening, Alice still clenched her fists tightly, wanting to fight for her honor. “Also… also if I defeat you this time, I’ll not kill you… I’ll spare you once too, and give you a chance to seek your revenge…”

After she finished saying that, she once again held her head high and snorted coldly at Greem.

“It seems like you lost to me in the previous fight. Why should I use my own possessions to bet with again?” Greem let out an evil laugh, with a weird expression of flirting a little loli.

“Hmph! I knew you would say this!” Alice said, like she was disdainful and refuting Greem. She reached her hand into the air and pulled out a magical scroll that emanated with a startling magical ripple. “Not long ago, you visited the territory of the Zuber Family and wreaked havoc, nearly destroying their resource site. If not for Granny Endor helping you stop this crisis, do you think you could have escaped from the revenge of the Zuber Family? Their Second Grade Adept almost come here to strangle you! Do you really think they are just a bunch of idiots and cannot figure out the trouble you caused underground?”

The expression on Greem’s face became rigid.

True enough, he had been rather thoughtless in what he did, as he had only concentrated on how to strengthen his overall strength. He had neglected the possible reaction of the Molten Giants. He had gone too far by destroying their ancestor’s graveyard!

“So, what do you want?” Greem now spoke in a milder tone.

“So long as you accept my challenge and fight another round with me, we, the Northern Witches, will assume part of your responsibility in causing that trouble. Now, sign this magical scroll. With that, it will make sure we fulfill our pledge!”

“Is this all you want? Since you’re so eager to defeat me and get rid of the pledge you made before, don’t tell me you are from the clan of Destiny Witches?” With the aid from the Chip, Greem knew nearly all of the experts from the different powerful clans throughout the entire Adept Continent. That was why he could sense something from Alice’s eager attitude.

“That is none of your business! My only question for you is whether you want to sign it or not. Sign the contract and we’ll have a new bet. If you win, I’ll still be your slave, and we’ll bear the responsibility. If you lose, we’ll still help you, but all previous pledges between us will be voided. I’ll not kill you, but grant you the opportunity to seek your revenge. So, are you going to sign it or not?”

“I’ll sign it! Of course I will! You’re going to suffer from this!” Greem burst into laughter.

As his words left his mouth and rippled through the space, the magical scroll suddenly broke out into fierce flames.
