"Everything has been judged. However ... You really don't use Qi energy or special abilities, Mr. Owl.
So ... I have to fill the special abilities section with what?"
Hearing Clarissa's remark, the expressions of the soldiers instantly stagnated. Even the serious-looking Diana had also been unaware since just now.
Everyone immediately stared at Adam, making the young man shake his head lightly.
"The cultivation technique deals with wind and ice. Whereas the part where it says I can disappear .. You could say I have a little talent in camouflage."
"Wind and ice? Dual element?" Clarissa looked surprised.
Adam himself was unwilling to reveal that he could transform his pure energy into any other kind of element.
The wind element, of course, was about a technique that he often and would continue to use, the Autumn Sword. As for the ice element, the young man was initially confused about whether or not to include it. But eventually he chose to include it.
Simple reason. The young man often used ice element talismans. Most likely the information that he himself made the talisman would be revealed. Also, Adam had no intention of hiding all of his abilities. He intended to use 'Ice Control' at the right time.
Cyrokinesis, the opposite of Pyrokinesis.
So elements of wind and ice must be included. Of course, he would not reveal it as soon as possible.
Not saying much, Adam took out three talismans with different patterns.
"Is that a real talisman? Completely magical?" ask Clarissa.
Hearing the woman's question, Adam nodded lightly.
The intelligent Clarissa seemed to realize something. Her eyes widened. He then directly approached Adam and held his hand while staring with glittering eyes, as if there were thousands of stars inside.
"Do you make it yourself?" ask Clarissa.
"Yes" Adam answered briefly.
Hearing that made Clarissa even more excited.
"Do you accept internships?"
"No." Adam shook his head lightly.
Clarissa looked disappointed, but immediately fixed her expression.
"Then can we order a talisman per month?"
"No." Once again Adam shook his head. "I'm sure you mean ordering in bulk. Thats impossible. This kind of thing cannot be made in mass production. Moreover, this thing is valuable because of its rarity."
"So ..." Clarissa was a bit pouting, but clearly understood the reason and was not stubborn.
"Yes." Yeah." Adam nodded lightly.
"Then this ability will also be added to the list. This kind of production ability was no less important than fighting ability.
I'm sure the people above will approve your request. The stronger, the more appreciated. That's the old rule of this world."
Hearing Clarissa's words, Adam nodded as he replied, "Thank you."
"Together."
Afterwards, Adam and James said goodbye and left the military base.
Seeing the car that went missing in the distance, Diana glanced at Clarissa.
"Isn't it better to tie it to rules and contracts? If your grandfather approves Owl's request, I'm afraid—"
"No problem, Diana."
Clarissa smiled cheerfully as she looked at the cold woman. Looking at the somewhat confused Diana, he explained.
"The stronger, the harder it is to manage. If it tried to be tied too tightly, Owl must have felt uncomfortable and chose to fly away instead of nesting in the Department of Mysteries. In the end .. he might be the opponent.
I know what Grandpa thought. Rather than making enemies, he wanted to create a symbiotic relationship of mutualism in which both sides benefit from each other. It must have made Owl more comfortable."
Hearing Clarissa's words, Diana nodded lightly.
Seeing the figure of Clarissa staring in the direction Adam left, Diana let out a long sigh.
As usual ... I can't predict this girl's thoughts.
...***...
Without feeling the time pass, Sunday has arrived.
"Do you intend to visit the workplace?"
In the dining room of Adam's apartment, Jennifer who was sitting holding a cup of coffee looked at the handsome young man with a strange expression.
"Yes." Yeah." Adam smiled bitterly. "You know .. maybe they chose that place for secrecy."
"I don't know. I hope your guess is right." Jennifer shrugged her shoulders.
After Adam came back and James told him the address he had to go to on Sunday, the day before he started work. The young man directly checked and searched for information about the location.
Adam himself was surprised to see that the location of the Mystery Department was actually in the two-story old house. More precisely a shabby building not far from the public cemetery of City B.
"We won't know until we get there ourselves."
Hearing Adam's words, Jennifer grinned. Seemed to hear a joke.
Her afternoon.
After several changes to the city bus so that it can not be traced, Adam finally arrived at the location. This time the young man wore a turtleneck shirt with an additional black coat. Trousers, shoes, gloves .. except for the plain white mask on his face, the others are colored in black.
Of course, that elegant as well as strange appearance made many people look at him curiously. Especially the children on the bus who could not help their curiosity.
Standing outside the gate, Adam saw a two-story old building with white paint that had been dull and moldy. It has a classic style with a very spacious front and back yard. It must have been beautiful in its time.
Only, now the house was more akin to an abandoned building with a completely unkempt front yard. A lot of grass is quite tall and a lot of trees are not maintained. Dried, even rotten leaves filled the courtyard.
When opening the gate, an annoying creaking sound rang out in the ears.
I'd hit James three times if the guy actually made a joke.
Without a doubt, Adam swore an oath to his heart. Passing through the courtyard leading to the front door of the house, he then saw a bell beside the door. Poking the bell, the young man's expression changed.
Even the electricity is not well taken care of?
Sighing deeply, the young man then knocked on the door.
Geck! Geck! Geck!
After waiting for a while, the door finally opened. Instead of James, Adam saw the figure of a teenage girl with black hair with bangs covering half of her face.
"S-Who?" ask the girl in a barely audible voice.
"Is this really the place indicated by James, the City B branch's Mystery Department?" adam asked in a monotone voice.
"Right." The girl nodded, but looked frightened.
"Oh. You've arrived, Mr Owl!"
James's voice was heard when the door that had originally been partially opened was immediately opened wide. The creaking sound from the rusty hinges made Adam involuntarily frown.
Looking towards James, Adam was completely speechless. Compared to the neat appearance of the man who met her a few days ago. You could say .. his appearance was very messy.
Random hair, neatly trimmed beard, red eyes with black eye bags. Messy clothes plus the smell of alcohol ...
It's really unbearable!
Looking towards James, Adam blinked. It seemed to be unable to process such a sudden occurrence.
Looks ... I entered the wrong place?
