When Adam opened his eyes after feeling the usual weightlessness that accompanied the transfer of his soul to the Library, he found himself to be in a place slightly different from what he was used to. It was still a place filled with books – as usual – but rather than a gigantic never-ending library of epic proportions, he found himself in what looked like a small drawing room with a chimney and a few books littered about on the shelves that were just the tiniest sliver bigger than…-

When Shuri asked the question on point, with a blunt tone coloring her voice, silence greeted her from the other end of the call for some time. This was a tactic she was used to since the start in her career and one she had used against Adam last time. During a discussion, the more you turned around the more time you gave to the other party to actually formulate an excuse and get away. Point blank questions like this had the advantage of blindsiding the opponent and leaving him hesitating. "Before…

While Adam was preparing himself to enter the Library of Akasha once again, Shuri could be seen sitting inside her office and working on the merger as she always would around this time for the past few days or so. After all, the merger wasn't something that could be taken care of in a few days and she had to make sure that everything was going as perfectly as possible and that there were no chances of there being a mistake left anywhere. She had a team of more than twenty lawyers working on the…

In the midst of the desert that separated the city of sin— Las Vegas from the city of dream— Los Angeles, Adam was floating quietly and leisurely in the skies above while facing the enchanting moon. His eyes were hazy and empty, devoid of any emotions or intellect, but in his mind, a fierce debate was being enacted between his minds. "So, my dear friends. It seems like we have been a little too reckless today, haven't we?" In a white void of infinite length and maybe beyond, three people were…

The hunters were not the only ones reacting to the aura blast. Inside the territory of the wolves, a young man was drinking heavily while holding a bottle in his hands. "Boss. What do we do?" He stopped drinking and looked in a certain direction, "Did whatever happened in that region reach us?" "No…" "Then we do nothing. Just observe. See how things develop before reacting." The woman who had received the order opened her mouth immediately, wishing to say something at the sight of her leader…

The moment Adam unleashed his aura blast without paying attention to his surroundings, the reverberation of his power was felt throughout the entirety of the coverage of his zone— created by his skill 'The World.' Which was a whopping radius of more than one kilometer or a little under one mile. One of the greatest fears all living creatures gifted with reason had was the fear of death— their eternal demise from the realms of the living. The knowledge that the end was ever approaching and…

As Adam placed his cards back on the table as a sign of giving up this turn, he couldn't help but observe and hear the discussion that was going on between the two brothers that owned this casino. 'I guess they didn't become big bosses of this grand establishment for nothing.' In his initial plans, he was going to win as much as possible, at least until he was not allowed to, then make sure that they attacked him to give as an excuse for totally wiping them out. Like this, when their extermination…

As Adam continued his massacre of the other gamblers at the gambling table while thinking of his reconversion as a Gambler King, the personnel of the casino were sweating bullets seeing his, quite literally, breathtaking gameplay. After all, while it was acceptable and even necessary for them to lose sometimes, it was necessary to do this on their own terms and conditions, not the players'. Sitting inside the main office of the most famous casino in Sin City, two men, with slightly dark skin…

Floating above the car of his latest victim, Adam watched on as the loud and blistering sound of gunshot resonated in the surroundings and immediately after… the windows of the car cracked ever so slightly before being splattered by blood, brain matter, and bits of chipped off bones from the skull. 'Huh… So the window was actually bulletproof? That's pretty interesting.' He muttered absent-mindedly in his mind while verifying with his ocular powers that Williams was indeed dead for the count. He…

Adam looked at the slumped body of William. He could easily kill him now. But it wouldn't really satisfy him and Adam wished to end him in a way that would leave no ambiguity. Getting some Karma on the way as well would be great. 'Time to truly act as a Dream walker.' — *Gasp* William came to himself a few minutes later. "My. Oh my. I must say. I was wondering just how much shit stain you were but damn. Gotta say, I feel sorry for your wife " "Who? Are you from the Casino? I said I would…
