Chapter 149 - Angela's Guardian: Wayde Part 1



"I appreciate that and am willing to assist you, but my condition is that my identity and face are not revealed to the rest of your family and I would like to wear a mask" stated Adam.

He was confident that he could destroy and kill all the people in the Silver Moon Auction House to protect himself and those that he cared about, but against the Maxwell Family, he had no chance.

​​

Because of that, it was best if he kept his identity secret while only directly dealing with Angela and Wayde, who despite being unusual, seemed to be very direct and honest, which was exactly what he wanted and needed from a friend.

"Then it is settled. You will be joining me in tonight\'s meeting and will be masked so that the rest of my family don\'t know who you are" agreed Angela.

Even with his face covered, Adam knew that if the Maxwell Family wanted to forcefully find out his identity, they would. So he also had to take other precautions.

"It would be troublesome for me to come as your friend and companion as your family will look into me and cause me trouble. It will be better if I come as your bodyguard just like Wayde is, which will make it easier to explain why I am there with you" said Adam, who was afraid of being looked into by the Maxwell Family.

Angela nodded her head in agreement as they headed towards the tallest and most expensive building in Brooklyn, that was also the Maxwell Family\'s headquarters.

From what she had done, she didn\'t seem to be either a good or bad person, and although being good or bad was subjective, so far she seemed to be quite a good person.

She didn\'t seem to have the intention of harming him and hadn\'t attempted to steal or pry into whatever methods or skills he had. Although he knew that was probably because she underestimated how capable he was, Adam still appreciated that she didn\'t do so and couldn\'t sense any hostility coming from her.

Angela had become much more relaxed around Adam and didn\'t see him as somebody who could threaten her anyway.

Adam found her naivety and innocence unusual, despite the arrogance that she displayed, but he felt that Wayde was much different. Although he was quiet and seemed to be focused on driving, his eyes were always watching everything that Adam did.

Wayde who was driving the limousine had been on edge the entire ride with his spiritual sense activated and monitoring every movement that Adam made.

He was listening to everything that they were saying and didn\'t care about what happened between them as long as Angela was safe and happy. He would do exactly as she said and the only orders that he would refuse, were ones that would put Angela in danger.

Angela safety and happiness were all he was living for and all he thought about as he continued to monitor Adam while driving them towards the Maxwell Headquarters.

It was only after both of them had reached an agreement that he eased up slightly, but his only task in life was to protect Angela, so was still careful.

Wayde was found as a young child by the Maxwell Family. The Maxwell Family used to and still secretly test the cultivation talent of young children in orphanages.

With their family\'s influence and wealth, it was easy to take in any orphans that had satisfactory talent and was the only way that they allowed people to enter their family. Their family was one of the smallest in terms of numbers and all the members were either direct descendants, or young and talented children that they had raised as part of the family.

The orphanages would be owned by them and not only were they helping young children and improving their reputation, but they were also scouting young children to get to join their family.

It could be said that it was immoral to take orphans into their family as they pleased, but in their eyes, they were merely taking what was theirs as they were the ones that were paying for everything that the kids had and needed until they were adults.

They would test their talent by placing a special type of energy crystal in their hands. The brighter the crystal glows while in contact with an individual, the higher the talent of the individual.

That is because it shows the individual\'s body\'s capacity to absorb energy and their affinity with it, which the special energy stone reacts to.

The special energy crystal also gauges whether or not the individual has an elemental affinity and of what grade, by glowing to a colour that matched that of a certain element and the brightness of that light.

It wasn\'t completely accurate and was hard to get an exact measure of one\'s talent, but it was the cheapest and easiest way for them to do so, as, unlike Adam, they didn\'t have a system in their head that would put it in numerical form.

The testing process wasn\'t harmful and merely took a few seconds, which made it safe to use on young children, and despite their arrogance and superiority complex, the Maxwell Family weren\'t evil.

Most children didn\'t think much of it and the special energy crystal, in most cases, would only glow slightly, so didn\'t seem to be anything amazing.

Wayde didn\'t have any knowledge or memory of his parents and was quite an average and normal child. He had been in a few different orphanages and while in one that was owned by the Maxwell Family, he was tested and immediately taken to the head of the family afterwards.

He was handed the crystal while he was playing and initially, there was no reaction, which was quite ordinary as most people didn\'t have the talent for cultivation, but after he held it for a few seconds, it suddenly reacted.
