Chapter 2, Werewolf
The transformed Adam is different from the regular Adam; although he retains a certain level of rationality in his transformed state, both his personality and thought patterns undergo significant changes
Adam politely declined the proposal, stating that the tuition was far from sufficient. Although Brother Vlas felt it was a pity, he still lent him the book
Although he is not familiar with the system of extraordinary powers, he is quite clear about some other information
Adam seemed to recall an unpleasant experience, and could not help but rub his temples
As the sky darkened, Adam, Alis, and Mary greeted each other, rubbed Lina's little head, and then returned to their attic where they slept
That tear is compassion
Therefore, one must still exercise caution during tonight's operation, as Baron Mansra undoubtedly possesses extraordinary abilities Adam recalled some information he had once learned
The two individuals are dressed in monk robes, which confirms that they are members of the church. From their conversation, it is not difficult to discern that they have found another malevolent creature.
After 3 a.m., having confirmed that everyone in the residence was resting, Adam quietly entered the house. After taking a look around, he left and took a different route back to the vicinity of the Boku family.
If one must make a comparison, it would be between a state of sobriety and that of intoxication
After listening once more, Adam silently leaped out of the attic, jumped down from the rooftop, concealed in the shadows of the moonlight, and swiftly made his way towards his destination
Adam closed the book in his hands and did not continue reading. He was well aware of the content that followed; he was only looking at this book for the illustrations it contained
At the moment of landing, Adam's long nails shot out, allowing him to grip the ground tightly. His robust body transitioned from extreme motion to complete stillness in an instant, as he concealed himself in the shadows, even his breathing seemed to have come to a halt
In his werewolf form, Adam's sense of smell became more acute. Although he does not usually prefer to utilize this ability, the environment in most parts of this world is rather poor, with some areas being excessively referred to as toxic fog zones
Endless light descends, with the starry sky, bright moon, and blazing sun appearing simultaneously in the heavens
Adam bent down to avoid making a sound by colliding with the roof. After transforming, his height increased from 1.5 meters to 1.8 meters
Unlike the common perception of werewolves, Adam, in his werewolf state, is indifferent, cunning, and resolute, possessing a powerful and keen predatory instinct
Two fierce large dogs in the yard, upon seeing Adam, did not bark wildly; instead, they ran over, wagging their tails in a very friendly manner
In the morning, Adam went to the well to fetch some water, intending to freshen up. His keen sense of smell made him somewhat obsessive about cleanliness
He patted the dog's head and instructed the two large dogs to lie down. Adam quietly climbed up the wall covered with ivy, his sharp claws firmly embedded in the wall. Thanks to the ivy, there was no need to worry too much about leaving traces that could be discovered.
Two individuals carrying oil lamps walked past the adjacent street, completely unaware of Adam hidden in the shadows, who could easily snap the neck of either one with a single pounce, leaving no opportunity for them to even employ their supernatural abilities
Peering through the second-floor window, Adam observed the situation inside the room, his nose twitching twice as he detected various scents.
Having confirmed that there were no anomalies in the surroundings, he then returned through the skylight. He could vaguely hear some distant noises, but they were of no concern to him
Shedding his outer garments, Adam lay on the bed, listening as the sounds from downstairs gradually ceased. Once he had quietly pushed open the attic skylight and attentively listened to the surrounding noises, confirming that there were no anomalies, he began his transformation
Under the conditions of the Bokujia family, it is impossible to purchase any book; therefore, this particular book was lent to him by the monk from yesterday. The monk named Fula has high hopes for him, believing that if he studies at the seminary for a period of time, he will be able to become a monk
The moonlight streaming through the skylight illuminated Adam's face
It is said that the extraordinary abilities of the nobility are related to their heraldry In Adam's original world, the nobility also had what is known as heraldry, which is not only an ornament but also a record of lineage, reputation, and achievements In this world, heraldry is also a source of power
Yes, hurry over there and don't let him get away
When the light has cleansed the earth, the gods will return, leaving tears for the fallen beasts, nourishing the land, and restoring its vitality
He urgently needed power; however, for some reason, Adam's understanding of the power system of this world was far less than that of theology. At least in theology, he had mastered some rituals that possessed extraordinary power, which could be used to disguise and conceal himself
That Baron Manslra is capable of establishing a considerable enterprise in the city of Roya, naturally possessing extraordinary power
This should be considered Adam's personal talent; after a few encounters and interactions over the courtyard wall, these large dogs became extremely familiar with him and were willing to approach him.
Intelligence is a crucial element; the information reflected in subtle details can enable one to take greater initiative in subsequent interactions
The skin is not particularly fair, and the gaunt face gives off a sense of determination. The black bangs obscure the eyes, revealing a scar resembling the symbol < beneath them. The dark pupils, upon the next blink, transform into the crimson eyes of a beast.
The beasts howl in the light, pleading for the return of the deity
Every muscle in the body, every bone is in motion, especially the face; the mouth elongates, the fangs become menacing, the ears become pointed and stand erect, and the black hair on the head turns white in this process
The multitude of beasts on the ground cried out that they did not need a deity, and the deity, in turn, departed from its position
Adam in his human state is quite cautious, enjoys thinking, and prefers to make detailed and comprehensive plans for anything he does, while in his werewolf state, Adam resembles a predator
Are we finally going to catch that evil person
As I passed by a street corner carrying a water bucket, I noticed that a platform there was already piled high with timber. It seems that the person did not manage to escape last night. Perhaps later, a bonfire party could be held.
Is the light still on?" Looking at the brightly lit room, he observed further and had no intention of engaging with the baron today
The transformation ability of werewolves originates from their bloodline, which is not merely blood, nor is it entirely the genetic recognition from Adam's past life, but rather contains something even more mysterious within it
Therefore, Adam's current extraordinary abilities rely solely on the powerful physique granted by his werewolf transformation in battle, which may suffice to intimidate ordinary bandits; however, when faced with other extraordinary beings, the outcome may not be so pleasant.
As long as one is a noble, one must possess extraordinary abilities; those nobles who fail to master such abilities should be considered counterfeit or, in other words, their noble "bloodline is impure." Such nobles will soon be stripped of their noble titles and become commoners
As the figure flashed past the street corner, Adam had already climbed over the courtyard wall
Therefore, one can gain a general understanding of the local painting standards from this book
Adam silently waited for them to walk away, harboring no further thoughts, only hoping that their next destination would not be the Boku family.
Unfortunately, Adam was unaware of how to tap into the power of his bloodline; instead, he seemed more familiar with how to conceal the abnormalities of that bloodline
After arriving here, I quietly lay by the window, inhaling various scents while listening intently.
This time, Adam felt a surge of restlessness, stemming from the agitation of his bloodline. He suspected that his bloodline was nearing maturity, but he was uncertain about what would happen after it matured
However, the power of the emblem must be accompanied by the corresponding bloodline in order to be cultivated, which Adam did not consider much
The sensation of transforming into a werewolf is truly extraordinary, and Adam finds it difficult to articulate the details of this experience in words
In just a few breaths, a giant wolf with a body covered in white fur appeared in the attic.
Due to limitations in printing capabilities, the illustrations in the missionary book "The Divine Word" with the same content vary across different regions, typically created by the best local artists
He currently feels an extreme lack of security; given his identity, in a theocratic state like the Holy Tianyin Kingdom, it seems as though he can sense the breath of death at any moment
