The villainess shall be mine

Chapter 119 Notion Of The Present



:::[Third person POV]:::

As for why Liu was with Adam inside of a ship that was about to leave a planet that was about to be consumed, it could be said that she came to the planet under the jurisdiction of the Kepalta family because of Adam.

At first, she didn't think of Adam as someone special or worth her attention, and as a matter of a fact, Julius was just a minor Lord ruling over a territory far from the Empire.

Considering all of that, there was nothing in Adam's possession that would interest Liu, a girl born and raised at the heart of this world, the Empire.

Nevertheless, things took a different turn, and the element that brought these two people from two different worlds together was none other than a little girl.

However, after seeing what happened, Liu began to understand a lot of things.

'I underestimated him! I was wrong about everything…' Liu thought to herself, thinking back about what happened after Adam absorbed the power of the monster's core.

In her life, she had witnessed a lot of things that normal people would never see in their lifetime, but what she saw during these minutes wasn't something humans were supposed to see, at least, that was what she thought.

Liu was defending the ship against the dragons' attacks, but she was also keeping an eye on Adam through the ship's monitors.

'What is he doing?' She thought, looking at Adam who was shouting and talking to himself.

After that, Cristal appeared and Adam gathered a lot of monster cores around him.

'Monster's cores?! What is he going to do with those?' Liu wondered.

However, the dragons that attacked the ship increased in number, and they attacked without giving Liu the time to collect her thoughts.

Thus, she focused on the dragons as materializing and controlling the seven-headed mystical creature was not easy. Her body was not yet fully adapted to her power, and like Adam's case, she could feel the burden of her power.

Suddenly, however, there was a blinding light!

"What is that?" Next to Liu, Zax reacted, looking in Adam's direction.

Taken aback by Zax's reaction, Liu also looked at Adam, and when she did, her eyes widened.

"What happened?!" She asked with an unusual high-pitched tone.

"I don't know… He was doing something with the cores and suddenly, his body turned into this!" Zax explained.

Looking at Adam, Liu's brain couldn't fully process what she was seeing, nor did Zax's, and all she could see was the silhouette of Adam's body standing in the middle of a black orb that was expanding.

At the same time, however, this orb, or more precisely, this hole was sucking the space around it, creating a distorted area that the human brain couldn't picture.

"Zax! Move the ship!" Liu shouted, seeing that Adam was not his usual self, or more precisely, she didn't even know what was happening to him.

"Yeah!" Zax also realized that it was not a good idea to stay close to Adam while he was in that state. She remembered what happened when Adam fought the commander.

"Roooaar!"

The monsters began to act weirdly after seeing the strange phenomena, however, some took this as a challenge and rushed at Adam.

Such actions, of course, didn't bring anything good to these creatures and even death could be considered agreeable compared to what happened a few moments after they rushed at Adam.

Their body began to break apart like mirrors, and their interiors spilled out while they were still alive.

"Rooar!"

The monsters cried in pain but unlike the Antimatter, this black orb that surrounded Adam was not something that living beings should even look at.

At that moment, every living being that was present there felt only one emotion, fear!

Even the gigantic monster opened its eyes and looked in Adam's direction, creating massive earthquakes.

Fortunately, Liu and the others were inside the ship, so they were less exposed to the unknown energy released by Adam.

Still, the three girls had goosebumps all over their bodies as if their brains warned them that the end was near.

Liu felt that her power was running out, and two of the ice dragon's heads crumbled and faded away, however, Adam didn't show any sign of stopping.

'What is he doing?! Did he lose control?' Liu began to feel anxious.

It was at that time that Adam's silhouette began to change. It turned into something grotesque.

"Wh-what is that?" Zax asked with teary eyes. "What is happening to him?"

"Calm down!" Blanca said, but she was also shocked but what was happening.

'This is not like you, what are you doing?' She thought to herself.

As far as Blanca was concerned, she always believed that Adam was always prepared for everything, so after seeing the scene unfolding before her eyes, she understood that the situation had taken a bad turn.

"He is going down! What should we do?" Zax asked worryingly, but in reality, there was nothing that they could do apart from watching.

Adam's silhouette was moving I'm a very morbid way, and looking at this, the girls were more than just worried.

Liu, of course, thought about leaving right away, but somehow, there was something that prevented her from taking this rational decision.

Chaos spread around the city and the monsters were in a state of panic, but then, a big red dragon showed up.

Adam finally reached the ground, and the black hole surrounding him grew as big as half of the city. Only his grotesque silhouette which was pure white could be seen in the middle of this pitch black abyss.

"Roooar!"

The big red dragon couldn't even approach Adam, and as soon as it stared at the abyss for a few moments, it began to shiver in fear.

No one knew what someone would see if they stared at this black hole, but fortunately, the three women were seeing everything through the ship's monitor.

They had a lot of questions and they began to panic, seeing that Adam, the person on which they depended the most, had gone berserk, and his power was more terrifying than he made it seem to be.

When all things appeared to have taken a dark turn, everything suddenly vanished.

As if Adam was always there, someone was standing in the middle of a huge crater.

"What?" Blanca gasped and rubbed her eyes, thinking that she might still be dreaming.

Even though the crater was there, everything appeared to be completely normal.

Adam was heading towards the ship, and as a matter of a fact, he just entered the ship and said that it was time to go.

The girls were still trying to process what happened, and the little girl with wings that arrived with Adam wasn't even their first problem.

"Cristal, upload the trajectory that we should follow onto the ship's computer. With your calculation, we should be able to find the safest way to leave this area," Adam said, standing next to Zax, looking at the ship's monitor. "Also, Liu, can you contact the man that communicated with us before?"

Liu nodded at Adam's words, and everyone knew that the things he said made sense, but their eyes were glued on him, observing every one of his movements.

After all, not a long ago, this man standing in front of them turned into something grotesque, but somehow, he was acting as if nothing happened.

The girls were curious. How did he feel? What was that phenomenon? Did he know about it? Why was he still calm?

Liu, in a lot of ways, was more shocked by what happened, but also by Adam's attitude.

'Who is he?' Liu wondered, and this was not the first time she asked this question herself, however, when she thought that she understood something about him, soon after, she would be surprised again.

The little girl was also another mystery, and even though Liu and the others saw the dragon turning into stone, they couldn't see what had happened after that.

Nevertheless, everyone stayed quiet, because they knew that by his attitude alone, Adam showed that he didn't intend to discuss anything related to what happened.

"Okay, I am going to put on some clothes," Adam said, and then he went to another compartment. The little dragon girl followed him.

After Adam left, Zax and Liu looked at each other and then glanced at Blanca.

Seeing the two girls looking at her, Blanca shook her head.

No one knew what was going on inside Adam's head, but the girls thought that it was best to let him bring up the discussion by himself.

He was not stupid, Blanca thought, so he must have already noticed the awkward atmosphere.

However, it was not the time to relax as everything was not over as long as they were still near this planet.

Consequently, the girls agreed that it was best to leave Adam alone for the time being. He must have a lot going on inside his mind, they conclude.
