Chapter 160 - Serious Talk Part 1



"Adam we need to talk. Me and you need to sit down and have a serious talk about everything that has happened" said his aunt as she grabbed his arm before he turned to leave.

Adam seeing her serious expression and knowing that she must have so many questions, submitted to her and followed after her as she dragged him into her room.

​​

"Thanks for protecting and staying with my aunt Chase. You can stay in my room for the next three days, while I am gone, and can use the computer whenever you want" called out Adam to Chase.

"Thanks, big bro" thanked Chase as he entered Adam\'s room and sat at his desk, knowing that it wasn\'t his business to get involved in their talk.

The unwritten rules that most cultivators followed was that they couldn\'t reveal their power and abilities to ordinary people that didn\'t know of it. That allowed them to control the world from the shadows and fight for different resources, without most people knowing about it.

Which was why there weren\'t any athletes or famous people that had publically revealed that they were cultivators, but that didn\'t mean that most followed that rule.

Those that did try to do so would usually be eliminated by high level cultivators before they could, as cultivators wanted to keep the peace in the world and it benefited them if most people were ignorant to it.

However, most of the time, low level cultivators become arrogant and abuse their slightly supernatural power and form small gangs.

Adam knew that his aunt would have many questions about everything she had seen, but even if it could extend her lifespan and increase her power, Adam was too worried about his aunt to allow her to enter the world of cultivation.

He wanted to avoid all her questions to do with it, and as long as she was safe and happy, Adam believed that she didn\'t need to know about or become a cultivator.

She sat him on her chair, while she sat on her bed opposite him and it was clear to Adam that she was very emotional and had many things that she wanted to get off her chest.

They were silent for a minute, while Adam waited for his aunt to calm down and collect her thoughts.

"Adam what happened to you while I was in the coma. You always avoid the question when I ask you, but I think that it is time that you answer me" asked his aunt.

She couldn\'t help but feel like Adam had been through a lot and felt that although he always acted happy when he was around her, he was secretly going through a lot.

When she looked into his eyes, she could see that Adam had experienced immense pain and suffering and it was as if he had become numb to it.

Adam didn\'t notice it, but he also had a dullness in his eyes that was similar to the one in Wayde\'s eyes, but Adam\'s was masked under his Bloodlust, killing intent and Charisma most of the time.

Dying in gruesome ways multiple times was traumatising and Adam had dealt with it well with the help of the Hunter\'s mind, but it still scarred him and was something that he would carry for the rest of his life.

Adam didn\'t know what to tell her. 

If he told her the truth, he would put her in danger and she probably wouldn\'t believe him and if he lied, she also wouldn\'t believe him and it might put a strain on their relationship.

After deliberating with himself for a minute, Adam decided that he would fit as much truth into his answers as possible, but he would make sure to leave out anything to do with cultivation or the Dungeon System.

"Well, I left high school and ghosted all my friends and everybody that knew me. Without you paying rent, I was kicked out of our old place and had to seek work. I was underage and only 15 at the time, so I had to work jobs illegally. I worked jobs that would pay me cash and I didn\'t receive any help from the government. I was offered to be taken to a foster home, as I was still a child, but then nobody would be able to pay your hospital bills. If that was the case, you might be removed from the hospital and left to die, or wake up to a large pile of debt, which I didn\'t want" said Adam.

"I worked multiple jobs and was homeless a times, while other times would find cheap one-room residences that I can stay in. I could hardly eat, as most times I couldn\'t afford to eat much after paying rent and your hospital bills. Since I was underage and working illegally, I could be kicked out at any moment by the manager or not paid, as there was no way that I could prove that I had worked and many times had worked without being paid" continued Adam who was completely telling the truth so far.

However, he didn\'t want his aunt to feel guilty, and merely wanted her to have peace of mind and know the truth. It was also therapy for him to be able to talk about some of the pain and suffering that he had experienced, so that somebody knew what he had been through.

"However it wasn\'t all bad and it wasn\'t your fault. I blame myself for allowing you to overwork yourself in the first place. I worked like that for two years, but then an opportunity changed my life" said Adam.

"I was hired into a company where I was trained to do analytics and would work on a computer. With that, I was given this apartment to stay in and they paid the first month of rent. It has been nearly a year since then I have been training in boxing the entire time. I left the company as it went bankrupt and also wasn\'t working for me, and now I work at different companies in different areas" stated Adam, who had found a story that would excuse his long leaves and also explain how his life changed.
