Chapter-10 [Mind Control~]

"N-No! What are you s-saying!" La Ji's voice trembled in nervousness. He didn't expect Adam to suspect him. "I have never even seen you before but you trespassed the personal property and even threatened me!!"

'Yup~ There was something weird about my accident too…so it was also done by this bastard under that shithead's order?' Adam was able to analyze that quickly from the weird behavior presented by La Ji.

Bang—

The door of the room opened loudly. Several people wearing blue guard uniforms entered the room. Adam turned his head and stared at them for a moment and counted the number of people.

'12…huh, they managed to pull this many guards this quickly, I guess, as expected of a 3 Star Hotel.' Even though there were 12 people with metal rods and bars in their hands, Adam was showing not a hint of fear.

His red eyes looked at them as though they were just fools.

"He is the intruder!! Quickly Apprehend him!!" La Ji seeing the guards quickly pointed at Adam and scream over the top of his lungs.

"Yes!" The head guard replied and all of the guards dashed at Adam, who was just looking at them.

Suddenly, the guards' dash halted. They all stopped where they were standing like something had controlled them and made them unable to move. Dark black rods made out of darkness were behind the neck of the guards as they had hit them.

La Ji started trembling. He felt like he was having the worst nightmare of his life with a demon trying to covet his life.

The demon was none other than Adam who had his right-hand lifted in the air and black threads made out of darkness were leaving his fingers. His red eyes were glowing in red with a blackish aura leaving his eyes.

Adam looked like a Demon from Hell.

Thud.

The bodies of all the guards dropped to the ground.

[Darkness control (Lv. 1)-{Control the darkness to do various things, from hiding to traveling in it or even making weapons from that. A higher-level grants more easy control over darkness.}]

Adam turned his head toward La Ji, who was having the worst nightmare of his life. The same thing he had done many times in the past to help Jiang Han become something that was endangering his life.

"N-no! Don't come near me…!!!" La Ji moved back a little, and then stumbled on his chair and fell to the ground.

Adam stood from the chair and walked past the table. He stood beside La Ji and looked down and him. La Ji trembled under Adam's gaze and then, pissed his pants. The ground below him got stained.

"Disgusting…" Adam's face turned into disgust as he placed his hand on his nose to stop the putrid smell.

"Well, you are disgusting but you still have some use for me so…"

Adam placed his hand on La Ji's head lifted his head, and looked directly into his eyes. La Ji's eyes started to roll. Adam felt a connection between himself and La Ji, but unlike the connection with Lilliana, it was fickle that could be broken at any time and Adam could order La Ji to do anything he want.

"Follow my order," Adam said and released La Ji.

La Ji remained sitting there with his mind having only one thought. 'Follow Master's order…Follow Master's order…'

Adam seeing that showed a satisfied smile as his eyes started to turn back into the normal red.

"You are going to invite me to the party that had been hosted by Situ Family."

"Yes, Master." La Ji stood and started making calls.

Adam seeing that left the room.

[Mind Control(Lv. 1)-{ Control the mind of your enemy.}]

Adam came out of the room from the gate this time but he had a confused look in his eyes.

'Celeste, is controlling the mind so easy?' From the time of his transformation, Adam had been able to use all of his skills easily. But he had thought that controlling the mind of another person would be a little difficult but it wasn't.

[No~ Controlling someone took a strain on your mind, but the person you controlled was already broken mentally. After all, you showed that man so many supernatural things.]

'I see…so it's like that. Then I have to be careful in controlling someone.' Adam nodded.

As he walked past the rooms on the 9th floor where La Ji was, he got lost in other thoughts. 'Who gave Jiang Han that aphroadic? From the way that shithead was speaking, it was given to him by someone he had never met but even then…'

Adam then shook his head. 'Well, I just have to ask it to that bastard himself and….'

He stopped in front of the elevator and pressed the button. Ding. The elevator door opened after several seconds and inside the elevator, there was a man with a woman in his arm and the other woman standing a little away from the man while leaning on the back.

'Ah...fuck…another troublesome person…' Adam seeing that instantly understood that the brown-haired person in the elevator was troublesome to deal with.

He quickly strode inside and pressed the 7th floor on the elevator and stood on the right corner.

The man standing there looked at Adam curiously. He had seen many people in his life having the aura of superiority surrounding them, but Adam was different. He was like a king. Even if Adam had tried to ignore him, the man's eyes naturally wandered onto him.

And the two women were not able to take their eyes off Adam. He was just like a star in their eyes. He was making them attracted to him unconsciously.

The woman leaning on the wall tried to move forward to start a conversation with Adam but just then, the elevator stopped and the door opened. Adam instantly rushed out of the elevator without looking back and went back to his room.

The woman looked at his figure with disappointment flashing in her eyes.

"Did Sis Xun get interested in him?" The man asked in a teasing tone.

The woman, Sis Xun, or Situ Xun looked back at the man, Situ Zian, her little brother.

"Yes." She nodded. "It's the first time I saw someone who got me look at them like this. He just had a presence that made it hard for me to ignore him."

The other woman, Wang Li nodded too. "Yes. I felt the same."

Situ Zian hearing that had a glint flashing past in his eyes. Even he had found Adam interested but he never thought that his sister, who never spare a second glance at a man would comment like this.

'Interesting…I think he is staying in this hotel…'

"I will try to see if I could invite him to the party." Situ Zian said.

Situ Xun nodded. "Yes, you can see if that person is willing to come."

And the elevator closed.

***

Adam entered his hotel room and saw Doctor Mo sitting on the sofa. Doctor Mo's complexion got better and he would have looked even younger if not for the fact that his beard was making it hard to see it.

And, Doctor Mo's physique becomes stronger too.

"Looks like you are in high spirits," Adam commented. "is becoming younger that good of a feeling?"

Adam sat on the last sofa that was alright and at the same time, in front of Doctor Mo.

Doctor Mo hearing Adam quickly stood and kneeled on the floor.

"Healer Mo greets Head Priest!"

His tone was full of reverence.

'Healer Mo…?' Adam becomes confused. He lifted his hand and Doctor Mo's body stood up and made him sit on the chair.

"What do you mean by that?" Adam asked.

Doctor Mo hearing that answered, "I am assigned with the position of Healer in the Church. I could control Darkness and use healing magic, even though it's just the first tier."

'Celeste, what are the ranks in the church?'

[Hmm~ Healer, Priest, Priestess, Knight, Holy Knight, Captain of Knights, Order of Darkness, Bishop, Cardinal, Saint, Saintess, Pope, and Head Priest and many others but it depends on the person what position they awakened after their entry to the Church. Unlike other churches, Head Priest is the highest order of position in the Church of Debauchery.]

'I see…so Doctor Mo becomes Healer while Lilliana turned into a Priestess…'

[Yes~ My child.]

Adam looked at Doctor Mo seriously. "How much can you heal?"

"Head Priest, I could heal the light wounds right now, but as my proficiency increase, I could heal even deeper injuries." Doctor Mo answered honestly.

"Ok. And have you resigned from this place?"

An embarrassed look appeared on Doctor Mo's face, "Head Priest, my appearance is completely different from before. If I appeared in front of anyone with my body, they will never recognize me. So, I was thinking if you could help me regarding that."

'He can't use Mind Control?' Adam thought.

[It is a skill you have because of your Incubus self.]

'Ah…'

"Then, go to the Manager of this restaurant and tell him that his master has sent you, he would do all the work." Adam waved his hand indicating Doctor Mo to leave quickly.

Doctor Mo stood and bowed his head, "Thank you, Head Priest!"

He then quickly left the room with some other thoughts in his mind.

'Head Priest is terrifying…he occupied this hotel without any problem and in just under 2 hours. Good thing I decided to accept the invitation or what was forced upon me else I would have the same fate…'

***

Adam closed his eyes. He had no idea how Doctor Mo viewed him and neither did he care about that. He was just waiting for Lilliana to come now and then go to the afternoon party hosted by the Young Master of Situ Family.

He wanted this hotel to be completely ruined. But he alone can't do it, not without using his powers but there was no problem in taking the hands of someone else to do that.

And the one who become Adam's knife was the Young Master of Situ Family.
