After Adam left with the twins, every person present within the training area felt like a huge boulder was taken off of their shoulders, and the feeling that felt like a tal chain wrapping around their heart was finally gone.
Uriella was the one who had taken a lot of ntal damage from what had just happened.
She wasn't a bad person otherwise Redmond wouldn't have let her in charge of the participants but she had a pretty stubborn character.
"Are you alright, Miss Uriella?" One of the ten high-level gift holders who were tasked to help the participants approached Uriella as she still looked confused.
Still, no one could bla her after what happened. So of the participants were still trembling.
"Don't worry, I am fine. I need to talk with Redmond. I will leave the rest to you guys." After a few minutes, Uriella regained her usual composure and stood up then left without making any comnt.
She never felt this humiliated before but at the sa ti, she experienced being utterly powerless.
Nevertheless, she didn't let any of that show on her face or attitude as left.
"My master asked to retrieve his and his guests' ID cards." Blanca's voice startled the man who held the ID cards.
Only a few people noticed that she didn't leave with Adam because they were focused on Adam himself.
Moreover, Adam was one thing but the woman who was standing in front of those high-level gift holders made them feel pressured.
Most of them were level 7 gift holders, and they were proficient at using their but they couldn't evaluate Blanca's strength.
"Certainly. What's your master's and his guests' na?"
Nonetheless, they had their pride as mbers of the Raizel family, and even after what happened, all of them acted as if nothing happened.
"His Na is… Adam, Adam Von Kepalta. His guests are Rose and Azalea Vyh Kristen," Blanca said, and it looked like she forgot Adam's na but Cristal reminded her.
"Please wait for a few monts, I am searching for their ID cards."
While Blanca was waiting for the man to find Adam's ID cards, the other trainers began to organize the participants.
However, the participants were still chatting among themselves and Adam began the focus on their discussions.
Most of them never experienced this kind of situation before, so they began to share their experiences with others.
"What do you think Banred?" Even Alexander who was always prideful and confident asked Banred's opinion on what happened because he didn't know how to interpret it. After all, no matter how he thought about it, there was no way for him to say sothing about himself seeing what happened.
"What do you want to say? We all know about stories of powerful gift holders and we grew up trying to be like them. That g-… That person is just like the power gift holders depicted in those stories. However, that doesn't an that our goal will change, does it? Instead, we should try harder to catch up to him," Barned said and he looked frustrated but at the end of his sentence, a confident smile appeared on his face.
Everyone else nodded at his words, and their group's morale had increased a big.
Indeed, rather than envying Adam and criticizing his actions, they should focus on how to achieve his level.
Barned was frustrated even though he said these words, and he knew that everyone else must be the sa. They trained hard to hone their skills and increase their level but in front of Adam, they were the sa as everyone else.
This fact was hard to accept, mostly for soone like Alexander, so Barned's words were important.
After all, if they focused on what happened and compared what they had achieved to what Adam did, they would never reach the next level, Banred understood this.
"But I wonder why did he ask the twins to co with him," Felicia remarked.
"I am wondering about that too," Yoru added.
Indeed, all of this had happened because Adam had asked the twins to co with him, an action that puzzled everyone else.
The sa question popped up inside of their mind but there couldn't co up with an answer.
"Well, it depends on what he saw during his observation," Barned replied. "He must have seen things that we didn't. Well, it makes sense considering his power."
"I wonder what did he see," Felicia mumbled.
Barned and his group weren't the only ones who wondered about the reasons behind Adam's actions.
At first, so people thought that Adam was trying to exploit the girls because they appeared to be weak but seeing how strong he was, people found this more unlikely.
Thus, they reached another conclusion and speculated that the twins might be more special.
Of course, so denied all of those theories and just thought that Adam was arrogant.
These people weren't convinced that they wouldn't be able to win against Adam. They thought that in a serious fight, they still have a chance and this ti, they were just taken by surprise.
Among the participants, so began to admire Adam and found him cool, but so wanted to test his abilities. So had even thought about seducing him or getting close to him to increase their own influence and take advantage of Adam's strength.
"Hmph! I know a lot of people who are stronger than him. And it's not like his gift is that powerful. It looks like he can control tal. In other words, an elental gift. In a few months, I will be already above him and I will make sure to pay him back for this," the blonde boy who had his testicles compressed said, and even though he could still feel the pain between his legs, he had already begun to talk arrogantly.
Listening to all of this, Blanca wondered if this was also within Adam's expectations. After all, she noticed that there was sothing a little bit odd about so people's reactions.
It looked like so of them were not even fazed after seeing Adam's demonstration of power. Moreover, even though Blanca didn't really care about these people, she found it interesting that Adam displayed his power in front of them.
She wondered about why Adam had chosen this thod though or was he genuinely angry? Bianca couldn't tell.
"Here are the ID cards."
After retrieving the ID cards, Blanca left imdiately but people were observing her.
Who was she? Why was she with Adam? Was she strong? They couldn't guess the answer to these questions.

"What's the aning of this, Redmond?!" Entering Redmond's office, Uriella spoke with an almost furious tone.
"aning of?" Redmond had already seen Uriella angry before so he wasn't really surprised but he didn't expect to see her in such a mood that day. After all, she looked extrely excited to see the participants.
"That kid, why didn't you tell that he was this troubleso? You talked with him right?"
"What do you an?"
"He just forced us all to kneel to the ground and spouted so kind of nonsense and then forced two girls to co to his room. I admit that he is strong but his attitude is very problematic," Uriella said, and she sat abruptly on top of a luxury sofa-like chair.
"Did you see him do all of that?" Redmond inquired.
"Yes, I did. Well, he was already on his way back when I caught him and asked him to explain himself," Uriella said.
"Is that all? From what I saw earlier, Adam is smart and tends always to act rationally. So have you asked him the right questions? Depending on what you said, you might have found it offending and I already told you that he has the status of a Lord. Adam is a prideful individual and he can take responsibility for his decisions there must be a reason why he asked these girls to co with him," Redmond explained.
"What? You don't trust ?"
"I am just saying that you might have not entirely understood the situation."
"I understand it perfectly. That brat is trying to use his power to do everything he wants," Uriella said in an annoyed tone.
"Uriella, this isn't unlike you. I know that he is not like the other kids but that doesn't necessarily an that he has bad intentions. He may be young but he is stronger than you and has a higher status than you, so you have to show him the respect he deserves. Didn't you see how he acted once he was given the treatnt he deserved? I knew that the thod we used was unusual and you seed to enjoy bossing the kids around, but if these kids claim their rights and you know that they deserve it, ignoring them would be the sa as denying the Empire," Redmond said.
Uriella reflected on her actions but what happened had still made her feel irritated.
"Even so…"
"We will talk with him together later and ask him directly. However, you need to act properly in front of him," Redmond continued.
