The villainess shall be mine

:::[Third person POV]:::

A few moments Before Adam fell to the ground, every person who witnessed what just happened had their mouth agape due to astonishment.

The Lords and Nobles who watched from distance all thought that they were witnessing the strength of a level 8 gift holder so they couldn't help but open their eyes wide while watching the whole scene. 'Is he the same person as earlier?' Almost everyone present there had the same thoughts.

Delio's mind overflowed with questions as he looked at the young man who had crimson red eyes floating in the air with a dumbfounded look on his face. 'What's happening? What was that sword? How did he close the portals? How did he hide such power until now?' He thought because the Adam in front of him gave a new and different impression than his usual self.

Delio couldn't help but question the reality in front of him and the way Adam used his plasma sword to pulverize the monsters left a deep impression in his mind because he was not a pushover even if he worked in the office most of the time.

He was a level 5 gift holder and during the disaster, he used his earth elemental ability to protect the guests and protect himself. His gift had high defensive power and was useful at modeling raw natural elements so gave him the ability to control certain minerals and metals which allowed him to help a certain number of people by himself.

Even so, the way Adam used his power to float and slash these level 4 monsters as if they were made of butter made Delio think twice about his evaluation of the young lord. 'Was he using two particular gifts at the same time?'

Adam's aptitude to use two different abilities didn't make any sense at all to Delio because a person could only use one ability given to them by the gift. 'Or did he reach a level at which he can fly?'

In any case, the things that Adam just accomplished were nothing sort of legendary for someone who lived on a faraway planet and it will go down in history as the birth of a legendary individual, or so Delio thought.

Looking at Adam who was still floating dignifiedly in the air, sister Gracia, Marcel, and Julius were also at a loss for words.

Sister Gracia who was still helping Marie to recover appeared to have some idea about what was happening. 'Does this young man possess the seed of a primordial authority?' She thought.

Even though she was part of a Holy Church, she wasn't informed about the specific details but she was told that the people who possessed the seed of a primordial authority were special and that she would be able to identify them as soon she met one.

At first, she thought the instructions that she received were too vague but when she saw Adam's action, she understood why specific instructions couldn't be given, after all, the events that just occurred couldn't be described in simple words.

'It was said that lady Marie had such potential but it was still yet to be awakened and she was meant to become an apprentice of the Holy Mother but she decided to abandon this honor and ran away with this man and grew older, yet she didn't show any sign of awakening her potential, which made the Holy Mother lose interest in her.' Garcia thought, looking at Juliu who had a dumbfounded look on her face.

'However, the Holy Mother secretly decided that lady Marie should be monitored because a primordial authority was just too valuable, and fortunately we came here, thinking that her child might have inherited the seed of a primordial authority.' She concluded. 'I can't believe that I might be witnessing the birth of such an important individual.'

Gracia was genuinely honored to be able to witness the power of God's child.

*****

Julius was not far from Marie and Gracia and his emotions were written all over his face.

'Is that Adam?' He asked himself, doubting his senses.

He always cared about his wife and son more than anything else so he always did everything within his power to protect them, and during the last 15 years, Adam was never exposed to any danger and grew up in a safe environment.

Julius knew what strength meant in this world but he couldn't afford to lose his son to some bunch of despicable monsters under his watch.

However, the young man who was still floating in the air was on a whole different level than an average teenager and even in his dream, he would never have imagined that his son hide something this big.

After all, Adam looked like a completely different person and the execution of his attacks was flawless, showing no hint of hesitation as if everything was going the way he wished it and no one could stop him.

Julius was afraid that Adam would change completely and become a different person than he used to be. He thought that he would try seriously to conquer the Empire because the person who was floating in front of him gave the impression that such a thing would be simple for him to accomplish.

"Adam…" Julius muttered with a worried voice.

*****

Among all of these people, there was one particular person who saw things differently.

Her name was Amelia Li Tylliard

She was one of the girls that talked with Adam but quickly lost interest in him because after assessing him with her particular gift, she deemed that Adam was average.

But during the whole slaughtering scene, her impression of him changed as she was watching him through her special eyes and witnessed the drastic change that was happening with him.

Her particular gift related to her eyes which let her see and witness things that normal people were not able to see.

It was at the same time a blessing and a curse for her because no one knew about the things that she could see, and even if she tried to explain them, people couldn't understand her. The things that she witnessed with her crystal purple eyes were something beyond human comprehension and even she didn't understand the meaning behind them. For example, she could see the aura of a person which allowed her to gauge a person's strength as soon as she see them. It was a very mysterious ability.

However, what Amelia saw when she looked at the floating young man in front of him gave her goosebumps all over her body, to the point that she couldn't stand well and her breath was rough as if she was suffocated by an invisible pressure so she fell on posterior.

From her point of view, Adam had exhibited seemingly limitless energy and the primordial particles in the surroundings were being absorbed by him even though he was just floating there. "A God!"

All of the things that she witnessed with her eyes couldn't even be compared to this phenomenon because It was as if she was looking at the heart of the universe, and Amelia wanted to know the truth behind Adam's power.

'What is this? Adam, what is your true identity? This can't be… From his aura alone, one thousand, even one million high-level gift holders wouldn't be able to beat this individual.' She thought, believing that if Adam wanted to destroy the world, he would be able to do it.

In a way, she wasn't wrong but she would never get the chance to ask Adam because as soon as Adam landed on the ground all of this mystical power suddenly vanished and he returned to his usual self.

From Amelia's point of view, the usual Adam didn't have that much power and It was as if she was just imagining things and that the individual that she saw was just a mirage due to her fear.

'What's going on? Amelia couldn't help but be surprised yet again as she stared at Adam who fell to the ground helplessly.
