The car stopped outside the building that Adam knew as the Silver Moon Auction House.

Now looking at the building closer, Adam could see that it was huge and had about 10 floors. Although it was quite large and modern, compared to the large buildings in central Brooklyn, it was nothing special.

But for now, it's enough for Elizabeth to be able to lay the groundwork for her organization and is a good investment that will increase in value over time.

"We have arrived sir, please follow me" the driver said respectfully as he left the car and opened the door for Adam.

Adam followed the man silently as he looked around and recorded everything he saw in the area.

The first time he was at the Auction House, he left just because Cole wanted him to go with him, but this time he had partnered with their organization and needed to see what he was working on.

The man who escorted her, dressed in an all-black suit and very tense and serving as he took Adam to the single elevator in the building leading to the top floor.

Upon reaching the upper floor, Adam realized that it was not part of the Auction House structure.

"The top floor is where the boss lives and where the boss also accommodates every guest he has. Whereas the floor below the boss was where all the loyal Auction House members lived" the guard explained after seeing Adam's curious expression.

The bodyguard knew that Adam was a prestigious guest at the Auction House and knew that telling Adam a few small things about the building would not be a problem.

[It was a good arrangement that ensured his safety and allowed him to also keep his subordinates close and nurture them with loyalty towards him] Adam thought to himself as he exited the elevator with his bodyguards.

The top floor was clean and modern, but not fancy and overrated, which Adam liked.

The Cole Penthouse was too luxurious and luxurious for Adam to like and it made him feel uncomfortable, but the top floor of the Silver Moon Auction House had the luxury that one needed to enjoy their stay, but it did not flaunt his wealth and made Adam feel out of place.

Elizabeth's wealth was clearly demonstrated by the building where her organization was located, which was superior to any small gangs and small cultivation organizations. However, it was still nothing compared to the larger family and Adam knew that his reserves were quickly burned to defend the Silver Moon Auction House and rebuilt it after the attack.

Adam was taken to a large office, which had a relaxed and comfortable atmosphere with several sofas and small decorations.

"You may go" Elizabeth told Adam's bodyguards as she greeted Adam and closed the door behind him.

Elizabeth was very careful and there were not many subordinates that she trusted completely.

"So, why did you call me here?" adam asked as he jumped onto the sofa and lay down comfortably.

She has no reason to stay quiet around Elizabeth after everything she has done for her and she is also happy that she feels comfortable nearby as their partnership continues to be strengthened by the trust they have have for each other.

"Well, there's some reason I'm calling you here, and we'll be riding in your custom vehicle if you can be patient" Elizabeth said as she sat across from the comfortably lying Adam.

Elizabeth likes to act mature and calm, but Adam knows she is as petty and childish as she is in certain situations and knows that it's all just acting.

"Quickly, spit out" urged Adam who began to be annoyed with Elizabeth who liked to delay revealing something to Adam.

"First of all I've selected 50 of my most talented and determined members of the organization and I'd like to run them by you before allowing them to develop the methods you've given me" elizabeth.

"I don't really care, if you trust them, they should be fine. And if they betray the organization, just kill them, it's no big deal" Adam replied indifferently wanting to board the custom vehicle he's been waiting for. .

"You can't just kill people and sooner or later you'll be caught on your own" Elizabeth's screams are upset by how reckless and uncaring Adam, who is willing to kill, is no longer able to sustain his adult actions.

"Ha, look who's out of character" Adam's taunts further upset Elizabeth.

Yet despite his teasing, Adam can see the care and truth behind his words, and he has to be more careful, otherwise, it's only a matter of time before they match his identity to the hooded criminal, all he knows is that he is wanted.

After Elizabeth and Adam went back and forth for a while, Elizabeth managed to calm herself down and was ready to continue the journey.

Adam without control of his hunter's mind is quite frivolous and free-spirited, while Elizabeth is very uptight and cautious, which makes their personalities clash.

The Hunters mind, though very cautious and paranoid, also chooses killing as the easiest option to solve any problem and always shakes Adam to act fast and not let his actions be determined by his emotions. The Hunter's mind is also less influential on Adam's personality and actions as Adam finds a balance between the control of his own mind and the Hunter's mind that gives him the best results.

Despite their petty quarrels, the two of them knew that neither of them had any malicious intentions towards each other and were just guarding each other. However, both of them only did so to increase their own power and influence using each other.

The mutual benefit of their partnership is what makes their relationship so strong and allows both of them to see each other's faults.

"Both I want to tell you that within a week I plan to reopen the auction house for business, he said, because you probably know that our funds are running out and we need to reveal ourselves to the world, but as a neutral organization that does not seek conflict" she told Elizabeth.

Adam agreed with his decision to do so and nodded in agreement.

"Third, your weird subordinate has been practicing endlessly and just stopped to eat the food we gave him and every time I go down to meet him, he will ask you" Elizabeth said.

"Then take me to see him" said Adam, wanting to see how much Chase was progressing.

Elizabeth's standing begins to lead the way to Chase's residence, which is large and full of whatever training equipment she wants.

"So, are you ready?" adam asked as he led him to where Chase was.

"Yes, I'll take you there after you visit your crazy subordinates" Elizabeth replied, finally making sure that Adam's vehicle was ready.

He could not help but smile, eager to ride it and see what it was like.

Although Adam never rode a motorcycle, he had seen some videos and manuals online, and it didn't seem too difficult.

As soon as Elizabeth opens the door to Chase's room and Chase sees Adam standing next to her, she runs towards Adam like a child who has seen their parents after a long time of not seeing each other.

To others, he was an unshakable wall of calm that acted as a monk, but with Adam, he was just a child who was happy to see his father.

[Does the monk legacy he acquired fry his brain. Why is she so weird) Adam thought to himself as Chase hugged her in a warm warm embrace.

"I miss you, sir, I mean boss" Chase said, taking Adam down.

Adam gauges Chase's strength by surprise finding that it has increased since the last time he saw it and it was just a little below his.

He could sense that Chase had become a rank 2 cultivator, but his strength in terms of stats was below his. But given Chase's hardening abilities, Adam is unsure if he himself can defeat Chase at his full strength.

[This strange person is very talented and strong, but has a childish mind. He might be overwhelmed by the knowledge given by the Monk Inheritance to him and his entire personality and mind must have been transformed into someone who only cared about meditation and training. However, after finding me the first to defeat him, it seems that he desperately needs a senior figure to model and follow, so I was the lucky one who got such an amazing and strange subordinate] analyzing Adam out of everything he had gathered about Chase.

His analysis was almost completely correct, but not because Chase wanted a senior figure so badly, but more on his mind and body who willingly submit to Adam because of the unexplained feelings he felt when in front of Adam.

Adam isn't entirely sure why Chase is so easy to submit to, but whatever it is, Adam is happy to have a subordinate like Chase and won't complain.

"Do you want to fight boss?" chase asked excitedly, wanting to test his strength after he improved.

"Sure, why not" agreed Adam as he prepared to fight Chase.
