Backyard of Dark Wings headquarters.
"Repeat soon, Nam. Aren't you tired?"
James who was sitting in the lounge while enjoying coffee and cigarettes stared at the figure of Nam swinging a wooden sword in the backyard. A serious expression appeared on the boy's face.
Despite being unsupervised, Nam clearly remains serious. The boy never even skipped training even though he was tired, or his body was not in top condition. He believed, only by hard work ..he could repay Adam's kindness to him.
Seeing Nam who was still focused on practicing and ignoring himself, James could only sigh deeply. The man felt helpless.
Nam woke up early. The boy exercised briefly before helping to sweep the house, and also watering the flowers before going to school. After school, he relaxes for a while and then learns to review previous lessons and learn lessons that will be discussed tomorrow at school. The boy used the time at night to practice.
Except for holidays where he sometimes relaxes or plays with his friends, Nam never slacks at all.
That really hurt James' conscience!
Sometimes, James compares himself to just sleeping late, getting drunk, smoking, and having a good time without much work with the boy. Feeling that he was worse than the boy who had not yet grown feathers, James felt somewhat depressed.
"Did Master not come, Uncle James?"
The question awakens James from his daydreams. Looking towards Nam who had just finished training and was filled with sweat, he could not help but frown. Not because of the smell, but ...
"How many times have I told you, don't call me Uncle, Nam. Call me Brother James."
"..."
Nam stared at James with a somewhat strange expression. More precisely a bit confused. He felt, James was too strange to want to be called 'sister' at such an age.
"Pfft .. You should be grateful Nam didn't call you Grandpa, James."
Looking up, James looked towards Douglas who was smiling happily. It made her feel like she wanted to get angry, but she finally could only take a deep breath.
Seeing James ignoring himself, Douglas stared at Nam with a relaxed expression.
"I think your teacher, Mr. Owl is busy. You don't have to worry. Isn't your teacher very strong?"
Nam who heard Douglas' words nodded.
"You're right, Uncle Douglas. The teacher must be busy. He must be fine!"
Seeing Nam so confident, James and Douglas looked at each other.
Feeling somewhat curious, James suddenly asked.
"What do you think Mr Owl is doing right now?"
Douglas stroked his chin before finally answering.
"Maybe they're investigating a big case. After all, Mr. Owl's brain is intelligent. He also likes to play detective."
Nam immediately replied in a disapproving tone.
"Surely the teacher is now training in a remote place. Maybe under a certain waterfall? Train the Qi energy and prepare to break through!"
"..."
Seeing Nam who was excited and had sparkling eyes, James and Douglas fell silent. But they thought the same thing.
'This boy is really good at imagining!'
James once again took a deep breath. Looking towards James and Nam, the man then said.
"You guys are too naive. I think he's happy to make medicine in peace. Prepare to sell in many batches as the profits are in sight!!!"
Seeing the excited James when he mentioned money, Douglas and Nam looked at each other and shook their heads.
They had already given up on awakening the Fire Imp who was too greedy towards the money!

Meanwhile, in the private room of a three-story empty house.
A slash! A slash! A slash!
Dozens of red threads danced in the air, tearing apart the roots that tried to attack Adam.
The figure of the young man rushed forward regardless of the condition of his body. Swinging his smoke-filled left arm and some burns, dozens of red threads instantly formed a net ...
"Dead!" adam said coldly.
Crash!!!
The sound of wood blowing is heard. The red thread instantly cut and injured the figure of the woman. However, Adam's expression suddenly changed when he saw that behind the woman's lower body that looked like a tree ...
It turned out that there was a pair of pale white feet.
'Shouldn't this woman be an evil spirit like a dryad? Why—'
Not yet able to think clearly, Adam felt a sense of criticism.
Without waiting for long, the young man immediately rolled on the floor. But at that moment, he felt a wound on his left shoulder.
Gnashing his teeth, Adam chose to retreat and observe.
The young man was somewhat astonished. If it could not dodge in time, it was likely that its neck had been injured by the previous attack. Looking ahead, Adam's body trembled slightly.
Map ... tap .. tap ...
The sound of soft footsteps sounded.
The figure of a beautiful woman in a black and pale-skinned dress stood several meters in front of Adam.
Yep. Compared to the figure of the previous half plant, the woman actually looked like a whole human. Only, his skin looked pale, and his irises were pomegranate red.
Adam saw many Spirit Beads scattered on the floor.
At that moment, he realized that he had made a big mistake. Because of the figure that he initially thought of as a dryad, from the beginning were two different creatures. In other words ...
'It turns out I was so stupid for breaking the seal?'
Feeling the pain in his left hand, Adam bit his lip.
Stopping using the Blood Threads skill, the young man instead used the Ice Control skill to freeze his own left hand. He then took out a few pills and swallowed them. While observing the figure of the woman who was just silent there, Adam felt a bit confused.
Unknowingly, Adam looked at the figure of the woman.
From an age, it seems that the woman was not at all much older than Adam. She even had such a beautiful appearance, slightly more beautiful than her own two lovers. It was just that ..the young man knew that the figure in front of him was definitely not a human.
"You .. who saved me?"
Such a melodious voice made Adam almost bewitched. Yet the young man was still standing in his place with a serious expression, staring at the figure of the woman in front of him warily.
The woman looked at Adam with a confused expression. He tilted his head, looking somewhat confused.
"Seems ... do I know you?"
"..."
Hearing the woman's confused tone, Adam felt a little awkward. He couldn't even tell if it was right or wrong. That made him more alert.
"Elbert? You ... You're Elbert, right?"
The woman looked at Adam's figure with a surprised, happy expression, even having a longing look on her face.
The beautiful woman ran over somewhat awkwardly with a happy expression. Just a few steps away, he suddenly fell on the floor holding his head.
"Relbert ... Elbert is dead? Then ..."
The woman looked up, looking at Adam with a distorted face.
"Who are you?!"
Hearing that question, Adam once again felt a crisis.
The young man immediately jumped back with. In the next instant, a snake with a body as big as an adult thigh suddenly emerged from the shadow of the woman.
Directly hit the floor where Adam previously stood!
Looking towards the woman with a crazy expression on her face, Adam muttered.
"It looks like I'm really in trouble."
