MIDNIGHT PRINCE: Empire of Sin

Chapter 471 CH 457: TEAMING UP (1)

Adam received a slew of notifications even though he was already dead and while some bad news was mixed within them, overall he could say that he had received more good news than bad.

Iron Body seemed more like a way to simplify all the resistance notifications he had gotten in the past.

Evolving it seemed pretty simple all things considered.

As for the evolution of [Eternal Damnation], there was little he could do about this Trait of his. In the first place, it changed nothing. Whatever god he met in the future, their favors would change when they learn of his true identity anyways.

[Entities related to the concept of Death are more likely to be favorable to you.]

This, among all the notifications he receives, was something that intrigued him. He remembered how the River of Styx reacted when he swore with Medusa back then.

This may be related to something along those lines. He might be able to control those things if he were to get a deeper insight into the concept of death.

'Then again, it isn't like I plan to enter the underworld to visit that river any time soon.'

He mused as he could feel his perception of the world increase slowly until he finally Woke Up from his temporary slumber into the realms of death.

Watching Adam come back to life was an intriguing phenomenon, to say the least.

Tsubasa thought idly as she observed the transformation of his body and restoration to his perfect self.

It wasn't regeneration in the truest sense of the world. It felt something similar to the time of his body being rewound more than anything else.

She took out her phone and started to film the whole scene as Adam's head floated in the air and started to reform but then stopped herself before she could really start the video.

She wanted to record the transformation to give it to Adam for him to analyze this power of his but in this day and age, nothing on an electronic device that used the internet could be safe, that was especially so in the Supernatural side of the world due to the presence of Cyber Space.

Her phone was essentially a fortress of Protection but Tsubasa would rather overestimate those hackers who could dive into the Cyber Space than underestimate them and pay dearly later on.

'Oh my.'

Soon, she blushed slightly as Adam finished reforming only for his body to stand naked in front of her.

'I shouldn't…'

It took her all of her will, mind, and effort to not succumb to the temptation of simply deciding to snap a few well-placed pictures.

Though absolutely nothing stopped her from searing that very picture in her mind.

'My. Oh my. I have seen it through the spiders but it's more overwhelming in person.'

She took a few hesitant steps and brought her trembling hands forward only for a calm voice to stop her in her tracks.

"... And what are you trying to do here, young lady?"

Looking up, she could see Adam looking down at her with a rather judgemental look on his impassive face.

"Ahem~"

She took a few steps back and cleared her throat. Even for her, it was quite a shameless action.

"Welcome back."

Adam sighed and ignored her as his body was draped in clothes weaved with illusions.

Even then, he could only sigh as the cold was not something he could stop his body from feeling. He could deceive everyone into believing that he had clothes but he couldn't deceive his own body.

'It's time to train my cold resistance.'

Though, he couldn't say that fighting with his dick swinging in the cold air wasn't the exact definition of fun for him. He simply hoped that he wouldn't freeze his balls and have to kill himself to revive them or something.

He ignored the disappointed expression that marred Tsubasa's face and focused on his current objectives. The objectives that were laid before him by the Book of Genesis.

[Epic Ordeal: Grey Knight.

Description: An entity with the potential to destroy the world may appear if nothing is done as soon as possible. Do the impossible and make the entity coexist with the primary mind.

Reward: +30000 Karma points]

Those were the quest he received back when Natasha told him the truth about her life and the threats that she was about to face.

Outside of the Black Knight ordeal which was an absolute no-go for him. The best option was the Grey Ordeal for him at the moment.

Sadly, it seemed like the Book already understood his mentality quite well by now as it had already given him a warning back then.

[Warning: After analyzing the tendency of the Host, it was decided that the Grey Ordeal has 60% of being chosen. Be careful. Fenrir's poison can pollute even the soul. Doing nothing or simply protecting the Primary Mind is advised.]

The risk was definitely overwhelming. But this was before he had evolved his soul to the next level.

Though he would have loved to evolve his soul once more by revisiting Wonderland, he had to act with what he had right now. Time was not really on his side

"Do you have any ideas? Anyway, can we enter this place without destroying the barrier?"

This was one of the greatest problems they were facing at the moment. If they couldn't enter, all they could do was watch as everything turned into a world of Ice and Snow.

"Also, even if we manage to enter… Honestly, things will be worse for us since we will be under the rules of the Phantasm Realm."

Adam shuddered as he remembered the world of endless flames belonging to Cecilia. It had been a rather extreme experience and he understood that facing someone in their domain was asking for a beating and a half.

Tsubasa moved her hand, and a mask appeared on her face.

It was a white and red kitsune mask with nothing but two holes for the eyes.

"The only way to stop a Phantasm Realm outside of outright destroying it altogether is evoking another Phantasm Realm."

She fiddled with the mask. "I should be able to open a way for you. In fact, with my mask, I believe I can also slow down the spread of the barrier for some time. But once you go inside the barrier, you would need another Phantasm realm to help resist."

"I guess so. Then—"

Adam was not able to finish as a rumbling sound reached him.

He was startled at first, wondering what was happening but soon, he looked up toward the skies.

There, high in the sky above, even higher than what his domain could reach, a futuristic helicopter could be seen flying towards them.

His eyes squinted when the helicopter started to prepare for landing but simply hovered in the air as someone opened the door.

'He… jumped?'

Just what kind of suicidal bastard was coming here right now?
