Mage Adam Chapter 113

Published at 12th of June 2023 09:58:10 AM

Adam's face twisted with confusion. He didn't expect consortiums to be a thing in the Mage World.

Seeing Adam's expression, Mage Victor thought that Adam was being nervous coming into contact with a mage's society, "Relax. This is a privately-owned property -- as long as you watch yourself, no one will try to kill you."

As they were speaking, a dim light swept over Mage Victor's avatar, and a door of light appeared before them. After they entered the door, two charming and seductive voices sounded in their ears, "Welcome back, Honorable Mage Victor!"

Two well-dressed, but voluptuous women greeted them. Although they were similar in appearance to humans, their ears and tails revealed that they weren't human at all.

Mage Victor simply strolled in the club and explained to Adam, "This is a succubus. You can take them if you like -- they are cheap and harmless. Their innate talent has been sealed."

A succubus' innate talent is to siphon the energy of the creatures they mate with.

Adam found that the life of mages seems... weirdly grounded.

Adam didn't really feel any lust, chasing behind Mage Victor. However, the devil was completely starstruck, staring at the succubi with shining eyes.

Adam ignored them, knowing they didn't have the guts to cause trouble. If the devil wanted to spend some power stones for entertainment, Adam wouldn't care, as long as he had some peace and quiet for a while.

There weren't any stairs or clear passages in the clubhouse, and Adam found that it was strangely empty. Following behind Mage Victor, he could feel his surroundings morphing and changing constantly.

"Mage Victor, may I ask -- who owns this consortium?"

"A total of seven mages. The Transdimensional Mage, Rex, is a Level 7 Mage. Including the tower owner, a total of seven Transdimensional Mages established this consortium under his initiative in order to jointly develop different worlds. Most of the resources are shared between them."

They soon came to an independent space with eleven people in it. Upon seeing Mage Victor, all of them stood up. One of them even stretched their arms open to greet him, letting out a deafening laugh, "Victor! It's been a while! Let me think... about three hundred years since we've last seen each other?"

Mage Victor's smile froze suddenly, pushing away the mage before him angrily before greeting the other mages one by one.

The mage who was pushed didn't mind at all, and turned to Adam, "You must be Adam, the creator of meditation? I know you. You're powerful."

Adam hurriedly bowed and replied, "No, no. You received the prize."

The mage waved his hand, "I'm the Dean of the Rex Mage Academy, Andre. I participated in the trials like you... for now, you can sit over there."

Adam knew that the conversation between Mage Victor and the other mages was not something he could participate in for now, so he thanked Dean Andre and walked to the other side. Adam had zero context of what the trial was like, since Mage Victor had only hinted it had something to do with antimages. It was a good time to scourge for information now.

Unbeknownst to Adam, the other apprentices at the table already knew who Adam was, since his meditation methods spread like fire.

"I'm Ike."

"Joe."

"John."

"Jones."

"Shirley and Hailey!"

They all came from different towers, but Adam had a great first impression on Shirley and Hailey. They were twins, but they had completely opposite auras emanating from them. Other than that, it was impossible to tell them apart.

They were geniuses like Adam, so of course, they would have a sense of arrogance. It was impossible to tell how close they all really were.

Adam sat down and Hailey immediately jumped to his side, showing him a big smile, "Hello Adam! Nice to meet you."

Just as Adam was about to greet back, he found a psychic arm stretched out in front of him and he was amazed, "This is..."

"Yup! A psychic arm! How is it? Before this, my sister and I had different affinities, and our magic never works well together! Your research has helped us a lot!" she explained, morphing the shape of the arm mischievously.

Adam could feel a fiery aura coming from Hailey, while a damp aura could be felt from Shirley, unsurprisingly. Adam guessed that they would combine their magic often, and telekinesis helped to overcome the difficulty of merging these two elements together.

Shirley simply nodded at Adam wordlessly.

Hailey whispered towards Adam, but just loud enough for Shirley to hear, "Don't pay attention to my sister! She's the most boring person ever!"

When Shirley heard this, she glared at her sister, and Hailey stuck out her tongue, "While it's true that your research helped us... it's too difficult to construct runes out of this."

Adam nodded. When he handed his research over to the tower, he didn't give any directions on constructing your own runes.

Hailey stared at Adam, but Adam didn't respond. He guessed that Hailey wanted him to help her out, but Adam felt that he had no obligation to do so.

Adam simply stared back at Hailey, and the awkward atmosphere spread across the room. Shirley couldn't help but chuckled, and Hailey sighed loudly, "Tch! Another boring person."
