"This is aweso. Cultivation, which we can think of as magic, is real. There are people like Cole that can control different elents and who knows what the limit is when it cos to power" said Sarah.
"Yes I know, but don't you think it is too dangerous for Cole and Adam. I don't want them to get hurt and don't really care about cultivation or anything else. I would rather Cole spend more ti with " moaned Emma, who didn't know the reasoning behind Cole's actions.
She understood that Cole and Adam wanted to increase their power, but Adam had skipped Cole's reasoning when explaining and for himself, said that it made him feel good, which was partly the case.
They both could accept it, but couldn't truly understand Cole and Adam as they weren't in their position and hadn't experienced cultivation for themselves, but Sarah had completely accepted it.
"Emma you know that Cole loves you. Adam hasn't told us everything and I am sure that there is a reason for everything that Cole and Adam have done. All the two of them have done is help us and each other and we can definitely say that cultivation won't change who they are. They might have beco much more mysterious and amazing, but Adam telling us the truth shows us that they still value us and want us to accept them for who they have beco"
Sarah's words helped Emma deal with everything and both of them were happy that they were being appreciated and told the truth by Adam. They were also sure that Adam had received Cole's permission to do so after hearing Adam talk in the bathroom, which he had done intentionally.
In Sarah's heart, everything was settled and after receiving the truth, there wasn't anything else she wanted, while Emma was eager for Cole's return and had mostly accepted what Adam had told them.
Adam who was stood in the lift, called Cole who answered as soon as he received the call, eager to hear how everything went.
"So how did it go?" asked Cole who, while Adam was talking to Emma and Sarah, had cleaned himself, changed into a fresh and luxurious set of clothing and ate breakfast.
"Well, I told them about cultivation and showed them a small amount of my power to prove it. I told them about your position and that you can control the wind, I also told them that you are more powerful and capable than . I didn't speak about my past or your past, which I thought that you should tell Emma and I was speaking with them this whole ti" summarised Adam.
"How did they take it?" asked Cole.
"They took it well, especially Sarah. I took myself out of the equation here and you are the main focus, as that is how I would prefer it. I think everything is sorted out for now, but you need to co and see Emma soon and explain to her everything you have been through and why you are in the position you are in, otherwise it will be hard for her to completely accept and understand" answered Adam.
Adam, who had beco quite a good judge of character, continued, "She is your partner and loves you, so she must feel betrayed that you didn't tell her the truth yourself, but your love and relationship is strong. Focus on becoming the family head first and make sure everything is fine in Staten Island before coming to see Emma. I am going to be focusing on my training as well, but I will co to see you and lend you my assistance whenever I can and whenever you need it".
"I appreciate everything you have done for and although I know that there isn't wealth or favours between us, but I do want to repay you and the power of the Epstein Family will support you after I beco the family head" thanked Cole.
"Likewise, the Epstein Family has my support" stated Adam before bidding Cole farewell.
It was an extrely important ti in Cole's life and with his desire to see Emma, he was planning on becoming the family head as quickly as he could. He had his responsibilities and the fact that Emma was waiting for him to explain himself and hadn't given up on him despite him leaving her in the dark, made Cole love and appreciate her even more.
Without wasting any ti, Cole called for a congregation with the rest of the elders to begin the ceremonies and training that needed to take place before he could beco the family head.
anwhile, Adam entered his apartnt with a wide smile, excited to see his aunt and as soon as he did, was welcod by the delicious sll of his aunt's food.
"Adam, you have returned" exclaid his aunt as soon as he opened the door.
She ran over to him and gave him a warm hug that Adam graciously accepted.
His aunt was once again reminded of how tall and muscular Adam had beco and loved seeing Adam, who she felt was the best thing that she had done in her life.
"How have you been?" asked Adam as he shut the door behind him and sat at the dining table.
Sat there he saw Chase's large figure and sensed that sothing had changed about him.
"We have been very good. Chase has helped a lot and has spent most of his ti busy in your room working on your computer" answered Adam's aunt who had beco very comfortable around Chase who rushed to Adam and went to hug him.
"Big bro I missed you" he wailed like a child.
"Hey, get off " complained Adam as he struggled out of Chase's strong grip around his body.
"Oops, sorry big bro, I couldn't stop myself" apologised Chase seeing how red Adam's face had beco.
Adam began scolding Chase as if he was a father telling off his child, while his aunt watched them and laughed.
Despite Adam scolding Chase's for hugging him so tightly, he was amazed by how strong Chase's body was and couldn't help but wonder how high his Strength stat was.
Even after Adam had tried to use all the strength in his body, he couldn't break free from Chase's grip.
Although he knew that in a real battle it could be overco by using his speed and keeping his distance, but if Adam was grabbed by Chase like that in a real battle, unless he used his summons, he couldn't think of any other way he would be able to get out.
The Unique Step Skip Skill was based on Adam being able to take steps, then would skip the steps and allow him to appear at the end of his trail, but if he couldn't move in the first place, it would be useless.
Sitting down to eat the al that his aunt prepared, Adam activated the Status Peering Feature and aid it towards Chase, but to his surprise, it was rejected and didn't work,
Adam was sure that Chase was yet to beco an Advanced Cultivator and from the way his Status Peering Feature was blocked, he could sense that Chase was blocking it with so sort of item or technique.
[I never thought he would grow so much in a short while. He also seems to have already begun to cultivate internally before I needed to advise him to] thought Adam to himself, amazed by how much Chase had changed.
"Big bro, are you still angry?" asked Chase, seeing that Adam had stopped eating and was staring at him.
"No, don't worry. I was just thinking about sothing" reassured him Adam as he continued eating.
Knowing how much Adam and Chase ate, Adam's aunt had prepared loads of food that was enough to feed dozens of people, and since money wasn't an issue, she would spend a lot of her day cooking for Chase and awaiting Adam's return.
"So, are you going to tell why he calls you big bro? He is clearly older than you" said his aunt who had never understood their relationship.
It was quite obvious that Chase was left with her to guard her, but she didn't know how they t and why Chase was so obedient to Adam.
Every ti she would ask Chase, he would respectfully refuse to answer and her only option was to ask Adam directly.
"Well, I don't have anything to hide from you. He is also soone that has special capabilities and is my subordinate. But he is also my little bro, despite him being older than , and that's about it" answered Adam who saw no reason to hide the truth from her.
Jannet looked in Adam's red eyes, then over to Chase, then chuckled to herself and was glad that Adam had told her the truth and was open with her.
