Chapter 263 Return to Bean, discuss the future with Lina.

Adam had no reason to refuse. His future had been limited due to the severe burnout he was experiencing, which prevented him from coming up with any good designs. But now, he was rekindling the flame of love that had burned in his youth.

On the other hand, Adam did not refuse the offer either, as he could make money from it. However, he was slightly wary of Barbara and could not understand her motives.

He did not doubt that he would be watched. And it would happen more often than he would like, but could he do anything about it?...

On one hand - yes, but on the other...

"If I resist, she will simply get rid of me, considering me dangerous. So I need to play the fool and pretend that I don't understand anything," Adam thought, barely restraining himself from rolling his eyes.

It was as if he had been transported back to the times when he was an advisor to Queen Elizabeth. Remembering those days, he involuntarily smiled, and his heart was filled with warmth, along with a hint of loneliness.

"I wonder how they are... how I want to see them."

***

To allocate a house for Adam would have required a week due to some paperwork. After all, most of the houses were occupied, and it was necessary to make an offer to someone to transfer the property.

Therefore, it was suggested that he stay in the estate until the time came, but Adam refused.

"Are you going to return to Bean Village?" Elrion asked, and then tilted his head in surprise, asking, "Why?" 𝒻𝓻𝘦𝑒𝓌𝑒𝓫𝓷𝑜𝓋𝘦𝓵.𝓬𝘰𝓂

"Well, I need to meet with Aunt Lina," Adam said, and smiled, seeing a knowing expression on Elrion's face, and then asked in return, "And don't you need to take care of your boutique?"

"Nah," he waved his hands and then gave a short and clear answer, "The butler will handle the management."

Adam could only shrug at this. After all, Elrion now had a large sum of money and was not interested in continuing to run a not-so-profitable business, but for the popularization of his name, he decided not to close the boutique.

Of course, in the documents, they arranged it so that Adam left his job in Bean Village, and his registration in Clinton City was already ready. Therefore, staying in the village and being limited to a few buildings was pointless.

However, he did not want to leave Lina there alone, and he set out to return to the village first to talk to her about it.

After saying goodbye to Elrion, Adam sat in the carriage that was to head back to Bean Village. The road was long, so he decided to occupy himself with something, for example, meditating.

He felt that he was close to breaking through to the second level. Daily training helped him a lot, so Adam had to continue to focus on this.

"As it happens, I got a few magic crystals from the mission..."

Two days later...

Boom!

A muffled thud sounded. The whirlwind of magical energy around Adam was chaotic and dangerous, for example, if an ordinary person had come closer and touched the whirlwind, they would have been crushed to pieces.

At first, the whirlwind rapidly increased in size and almost touched the chandelier, but Adam managed to take his power under control in time, and the whirlwind with the same speed began to decrease and then was completely sucked back into Adam's body.

"Phew... I thought I would have to pay for damaging the property of Knight Clinton..." Adam thought, and his back sweated: "I don't want to spend extra money!"

...It was a little funny that the main reason for his success was that he did not want to pay compensation for the damage.

The first thing Adam did after the breakthrough was check his profile.

[Name: Adam

Race: Devil

Power Rating: B-

Talent: Absent.

Current Level: Mortality Realm: Strengthening the Soul]

"B-... I'm broken," he thought, and his face became strange: "I'm above the level of ordinary practitioners, right? Well, maybe it's because of my special race that all this is happening, it's not ruled out."

Adam came to a logical conclusion, and then got up from the floor, starting to check his body. He had become stronger, and the difference was huge! It was as if he had instantly gone from a skinny, almost emaciated person to a strong and experienced fighter.

Moreover, the volume of magical energy was twice as large - they were turned into cubes and neatly stacked in his Magic Source as if someone was playing Tetris.

As for his Devil Source... the situation here was somewhat strange. Nothing had changed in appearance, but Adam could feel strange vibrations that inspired awe. Most likely, the effect of the poison had also increased.

"From this point of view, I have evolved into a Taipan Maccoi... heh," he thought, and then looked out the window.

It was already night. Adam was a little bored, so he turned on the star projection function, and with the help of some magical nonsense, it became possible to project the starry sky onto the ceiling of the carriage.

"Heh-heh..."

Adam let out a surprised breath. No matter how much he looked, these stars captivated him. Sometimes it seemed to him that someone was constantly watching him from the heavens, but then he began to get used to it and came to the conclusion that he was just imagining it.

The world was beautiful in its original form. The stars are the only thing that a person cannot touch. However, this only attracts them even more.

"Interesting... I've heard that you can go into space, but it is very different from what was on Earth. I would call it more a place where various dimensions are concentrated than stars... could it be an illusion?"

Creating an illusion that would affect the entire Higher and Lower World. This was indeed a difficult task and required the participation of several stupid people, which did not add much efficiency.

The only conclusion was that it was the gods.

"But, of course, I don't know why they need it," he thought, and shrugged: "And I'm not interested."

***

The carriage passed through the gates of the village without any problems, as the guards did not dare to stop anyone who had the emblem of Knight Clinton, the owner of these lands, on their carriage.

Of course, the head of the village also learned about the arrival of this carriage in the village, and he was very puzzled.

"Why did Lady Clinton return? I thought she had already finished discussing what she wanted and left on business..."

Anderson could not understand the motives of this woman, but he did not dare to ignore her presence, so he decided to meet her at the entrance to his estate, but...

"S-sir... Lady Clinton's carriage was not heading for you, but for some bakery," the guard reported with a sweaty forehead.

"What?"

Anderson lost his speech again. Now he did not understand what was happening. Did Lady Clinton have so much free time that she decided to stop by Bean Village for some baked goods?

***

The carriage with the emblem of Knight Clinton attracted a lot of attention, which left Adam helpless. They stopped at Aunt Lina's bakery, where she was standing at the entrance with a nervous look on her face along with her son.

She was not a stupid woman and knew that the person in the carriage was not simple. At least an aristocrat.

And when the door finally opened, Lina and her son held their breath. But when the person came out of the carriage, their jaws dropped to the ground.

"A-Adam?"

A stunningly handsome young man with his characteristic carefree smile appeared. His black eyes shone with joy when he saw Aunt Lina, but darkened when he saw Richard.

"Tsk.."

"Adam, how did you end up in the carriage of such a high-

ranking person?" Lina asked in astonishment, greeting the coachman, who answered her question instead of Adam.

"Sir Adam got some work in Clinton City and expressed his intention to return to the village to talk to you, so Gracious Clinton released the carriage for him so that the journey would go smoothly," the coachman replied politely, and then turning to Adam, said, "Sir Adam, I will wait here. You can talk for a while."

"All right, but... don't you want to take a walk? I'll be here for an hour or two, you can have something to eat," Adam suggested with a smile, seeing doubt on the coachman's face, added, "Don't worry, I won't tell Lady Clinton. You can have fun. See you in the evening."

"Thank you."

The coachman sighed with relief and gratefully looked at Adam, and then left to have fun. He didn't particularly like the idea of staying in the carriage for so long either.

Already in the house, sitting in the kitchen and drinking his favorite coffee, Lina listened with pleasure to Adam's story, and when the conversation turned to the competition, she cried out in surprise.

"You won?! That's a miracle!" Her face shone with joy, and her eyes sparkled with a smile.

"Hehe, of course I won. I didn't doubt it at all," Adam proudly replied, patting himself on the chest, not telling about how he almost ran away at the entrance to the estate.

Lina was captivated by his story and listened as if Adam was her grandfather telling fairy tales.

However, Adam did not drag it out for long and returned to the main question. His face was calm.

"Richard, will you leave us alone? We have something to discuss with Aunt Lina," Adam said with a smile, addressing Richard.

"Huh? All right..."

Although Richard did not want to leave these two alone, he could not disobey Adam, as a dangerous atmosphere emanated from him.

And when the door clicked shut, Adam suddenly pulled Lina into his arms, who, without wasting time, kissed him on the lips. She sat on his lap, face to face.

Very soon, smacking sounds filled the room. They kissed as if an eternity had passed since their last meeting, which was close to the truth. In the end, when Lina ran out of air, she broke the kiss. A bridge of saliva appeared between their tongues.

"Mmmmh..."

Lina moaned passionately when Adam's hand squeezed her ass in her jeans. She giggled and slapped his hand, looking up from her position.

"Naughty boy. Did you miss me that much?" she asked in a tender voice.

"Of course," Adam replied, and brought his lips to her neck, beginning to kiss, making Lina tremble: "I missed you and your smell very much."

"Hehe..."
