Chapter 406 - Catching Up Part 3
Adam saying that being serious was tiring caused Cole to laugh, remembering how serious and incredible he was when giving a speech to the Sentinels Faction members and leading their meeting, while Sarah also felt as though it didn't add up.
"Tiring, aren't you meant to have superhuman capabilities. Show me some of your abilities, Cole never shows us his ability to control the wind that you mentioned to us" said Sarah who was happy to be reunited with all of her old friends and was eager to see their abilities.
"I can't compare to Cole and don't have any special abilities. I am pretty good at using weapons though" answered Adam.
As he said that, he grabbed the spoons on the coffee table between him and the two girls, then began to juggle with them and pretend that they were knives.
It was hard for Sarah and Emma to believe that he could truly kill and fight like he previously said, while Cole was laughing to himself knowing that Adam was unbelievably strong and would merely prefer not to flaunt his power.
"By the way Sarah, how is your business going?" asked Adam.
"My business, you mean our business"
."No, I mean your business. I don't have time or the need for the business and think of it as a gift to make up for the past year"
"But it is worth at least a few hundred thousand now after Emma and I worked hard on it for the past year and we are on track to being worth 1 million dollars by the end of his financial quarter"
She believed that the worth of the business would change Adam's mind, but he didn't react in the slightest to what she said and didn't seem to care at all.
"Well if you both worked so hard on it, you can split the business 50/50. If you need me to sign anything bring me the documents to hand over my shares and I am proud of how far you two were able to come"
Sarah and Emma looked at each other and had no reason to decline Adam's generous offer, but they couldn't help but feel guilty for their precious behaviour.
After sorting out everything to do with the business, that Adam no longer had a need for or wanted to be affiliated with, since it would merely cause the people involved danger, they ordered some food and ate it at the kitchen dining table.
Cole sat beside Emma, making it so that Adam had no choice but to sit next to Sarah which he didn't mind since had allowed her to live with him previously for quite a while.
Emma and Sarah felt that Adam and Cole had greatly changed and that they could no longer keep up with them, but the feeling of inferiority was slowly removed after realising that they still acted and treated them the same.
After relaxing the rest of the day and acting like normal people, it was starting to get late and Cole and Adam both knew that they needed to leave as they had many things they needed to do.
"It was nice catching up, but we have to go now. I will be out of the city soon and most likely won't be able to visit in a while, but I am sure Cole will come in the next few weeks" said Adam as they stood up and prepared to leave.
Cole looked at Emma one last time and gave her a warm and reassuring smile before following behind Adam and leaving.
"Should we go on foot?" asked Cole.
"Why would we do that? It's night now and just fly us to the secret base"
Hearing that Cole smiled and had been meaning to fly over the city with Adam, but he expected that Adam wouldn't want to do so as Adam would not be able to control his movement in the air.
Little did he know Adam had created and mastered the Burst Movement Skill in both his forms, while also had quite a few other methods and skills that he had learnt that could aid his movement in the air
Cole's energy control couldn't be compared to Adam's, but was also very accurate and he no longer needed to use his arms, hands and fingers to aid him in using and controlling his Wind Elemental Affinity.
Waving one's hands or making specific movements to wield Internal Energy in most cases was merely used for the individual to increase their focus and aid them in imagining the outcome they were aiming for.
In reality, for most uses of Internal Energy, one could do them while standing still, but it was much more difficult to wield one's internal energy or Soul Power while the form was static and most would be unable to do so.
"I am impressed Cole, now show me your speed," said Adam as he felt the air around him begin to lift him up as they flew dozens of metres directly upwards into the air.
Cole looked over to Adam to see if he was reacting in any way, expecting him to be at least slightly nervous since he was so high up and had no control of himself at such altitudes, and yet he was calm and didn't react in the slightest.
'Does he trust me so much that he doesn't feel any fear or worry, or is he able to fly and is yet to use it?' wondered Cole as they blitzed through the air in the direction of the secret base.
However, merely a minute after they had left, Adam suddenly sensed that something bad was happening and his instincts had never been wrong.
Cole was unsure why Adam suddenly became tense, but after hearing a voice within his mind inform him of what was occurring, Adam had his fists tightly clenched and visibly became angry.
"I am going to destroy those bastards" he bellowed as he released his killing intent, which shocked and intimidated Cole, causing him to lose control for an instant and leave Adam plummeting towards the ground from hundreds of metres in the air.
