Chapter 243 - The Change In Jannet Part 1
Adam's aunt who was in his embrace wasn't feeling the power or effects of Adam's killing intent as he wasn't aiming it towards her and had control of where his killing intent reached as he told her to get onto the motorcycle.
"Angela Valdez, I can talk with you after I am finished here, but you need to leave" stated Adam as he glared at the 5 kidnappers who began to cower in fear.
??Angela was scared to meet with Adam and aimed her gun at him after he emitted his killing intent, scared that he might kill her, but Adam had no intention of doing so.
She had protected and saved his aunt, seemed to be a good person that wanted to help others, and was also the one that would help him form an alliance with the NYPD, which would be very useful for Adam.
Seeing the gun aimed at him, Adam smiled and suddenly disappeared from where he stood.
"Put the gun away, if I wanted to kill you, you would have been dead already" whispered Adam into Angela's ear after appearing behind her.
She didn't know how to react and quickly turned around to aim her gun at Adam who was seemingly able to teleport, which was something that she didn't think was possible for cultivators.
Jannet who was watching was shocked, but sat silently on the motorcycle, amazed by the feats she was watching the boy she raised accomplish.
Adam smiled as she placed the barrel of the gun on his forehead and threatened him to shoot him.
It was the chance that Adam was looking for and with his Charisma Stat at 3 times that of an ordainry person, he wanted to see how capable his Charm Skill would be.
Ava knew of the capability and potential of the Charm Skill, but she was also interested to see and witness how effective it would be against Angela Valdez and how well Adam would be able to use it.
Adam activated the Charm Skill with all of his 8 points of Charisma, and instantly an aura of attraction was released from his body.
Since he was aiming the skill at Angela, she was the only one that was affected by it and instantly dropped her weapon as she looked at Adam's handsome face.
"Angela, give me your phone so that I can put in my phone number, then could you please leave" requested Adam in a soft voice as he gave her a gentle smile.
Angela felt her heart skip a bit as her face became as red as a tomato.
"Yes Adam" she accepted as she scrambled to take out her phone without looking away from Adam's handsome face.
The Charm Skill was more effective than he had thought and since he had already saved her and she already was physically attracted to his looks, it was quite easy to seduce and manipulate her.
Accepting her phone, Adam typed in his phone number and wasn't worried that she could use it to track him, as his phone was untraceable, and he handed it back over to her.
"Call me tomorrow and we can talk, but for now I need to handle something," said Adam with a smile as he led her to her car.
Angela didn't understand why, but she felt as though her body, mind and emotions had all submitted to Adam as she did exactly what he said, but wanted to do what he said and wasn't forced to.
Adam knew that the Charm Skill wasn't a domination skill and it was a skill that allowed him to increase his compelling attractiveness or charm that could inspire devotion in others, so used it to manipulate Angela rather than control her.
Angela got into her car and drove back to her home, just like Adam had requested her to do and Adam had asked her to keep everything that happened there a secret.
[Ava, are the effects of the Charm Skill permanent?] asked Adam within his mind.
{The direct effects aren't permanent, but Angela will remember what she felt and would likely still feel the same way after feeling your Charisma once} answered Ava.
With that in mind, Adam was quite sure that she would do as he asked and would hold off from reporting what had happened until he spoke with her privately in person.
Adam retracted the Charm Skill after he was sure that Angela had driven away, then turned back to the 5 men that were tied up using some rope that they had found in the warehouse.
Angela didn't want them to bleed out, so bandaged their injuries, but after almost an hour without medical attention, they had lost a lot of blood and were feeling light-headed.
"Aunt, I don't think you would like to see this. Do you want to leave while I deal with these guys?" suggested Adam, who didn't want his aunt to see him as a monster or be scarred by what he was about to do.
"No Adam, I want to see them pay for kidnapping me. Especially him, he tricked me and hurt me emotionally, which can't be healed as easily as a physical wound" stated Jannet, shocking Adam and herself.
Adam was unsure whether to be proud or worried about his aunt that didn't seem to be afraid of him killing them, which would have been the normal reaction.
"Are you sure?"
Jannet nodded her head without any hesitation.
Her eyes were cold, which was to be expected considering she had been tricked by somebody she thought liked her and was kidnapped, but she also had some killing intent.
Adam had the Hunter's mind the first time he killed and had killed, which if he activated, would make it easy for him to deal with it, but he couldn't say the same for his aunt.
He shrugged and said, "I don't mind you staying, but this will scar you for the rest of your life" as he walked over to the 5 tied up men.
