Accompanied by the harsh alarm, Adam opened his eyes with difficulty. At first glance, he saw a huge head looking at him. He opened his mouth to salute Master Victor, but because he had not eaten normally for a long time and had just cut off most of his cell tissue, he was so weak that he could not make a sound.

Master Victor didn't care, so he reached out and a bottle of nutrient solution flew in front of Adam. Adam killed it in one bite, and the gentle and high energy began to slowly repair his broken body.

"Smart approach, but this time it's not free. You have to hand over all the gains of at least five years to offset your value from using me." Mage Victor muttered.

Adam recovered some strength, got up from the ground and said, "Of course, it's reasonable, respectful Master Victor."

Adam looked at the surrounding environment and knew that he should be in the laboratory of a higher authority owner. Obviously, this person is the dean, which is why he and the devil were not eliminated by the tower law enforcement officers at the first time.

Adam asked for instructions politely, and Master Victor told Adam to continue doing his own thing.

The energy digestion of the devil on the ground is about to be completed. Although the negative energy of the formal level cannot promote the devil, it has greatly enhanced its strength. Adam can see that the devil's chaotic form has mass, and is no longer a simple will life. However, because the devil cannot show his power in front of the mage, Adam can feel from the energy dispersed on it, this strength has tied up and even surpassed the weak Adam now.

Swish.

The devil opened his "eyes". From the parts of his irregular body that looked like eyes, two gray energy lights shot out. The devil almost instantly forgot the pain he had just endured, and turned into a human form with joy, constantly patting and beating on himself, and then he saw Adam standing in front of him.

"Master, I seem to have become stronger, Master..., huh?"

After the devil returned to his deity, he suddenly discovered that the chain bound in his soul disappeared. His sense of existence had never been as real as it is now. It dared not sure to send a weak energy attack on Adam.

This energy was very weak. Even if it hit the target without any lethality, Adam simply did not resist.

The devil watched the energy hit Adam, and his expression turned to ecstasy. He smiled at the sky: "Hahahaha, I'm free, Adam, you damn tyrant, I will turn you into my slave and torture you for ten thousand years!"

"a thousand years?"

"That's right, ten thousand years, you have to pay the price for your actions!"

"Will you sign a master-servant contract?"

The devil was stunned for a moment, it seemed that it really couldn't, but it still said toughly: "I... I can learn it sooner or later."

"Okay, then do you know where you are now?"

"Of course I know, I'm..." The devil's face turned pale. The Mage Continent, it is not a small rural space in the Mage Continent.

"It seems you know, then do you know what kind of energy is running in your body now?"

The devil's face turned paler.

"Do you know what consequences will be if a masterless alien creature appears on the Mage Continent with a full body of negative energy?"

The devil's face turned pale, and he imagined it with his knees, and he knew what kind of tragic ending he would face.

Adam gently made up for the last blow: "Look back."

The devil turned his head stiffly, and his neck creaked, and then he saw the Victor behind him.

The devil's human body collapsed suddenly, and rushed back behind Adam with a whoosh, and said in a trembling voice: "Lord, Master, I was just kidding. I will always be your most loyal servant. How dare I betray you? Sign a contract with me!"

The devil is very conscious. After his mind was lost in joy, he immediately recognized the reality and knew that in this world, it would not be possible to survive without Adam's side. Of course, it could also choose to sign a contract with other mages, but I'm afraid Adam would not give it this opportunity.

Even though Adam looked so weak that a gust of wind could blow away, he would still choose Adam under his sanity. He knew the horror of this boy more than anyone else.

Adam was familiar with the runes of the master-servant contract. The devil did not resist at all. He felt the freedom away from it again with tears in his eyes, and then he plunged into Adam's mind and refused to come out.

After all this, Adam officially expressed his gratitude to Master Victor: "Thank you for your help, respect Master Victor."

"Well, this is a fair deal. Everything that happens in your soul is valuable knowledge. As for the end, you need to hand over the fee to me, of course, allow you to pay in installments."

After saying this, Master Victor signaled Adam to leave on his own, not only because he didn't have time to talk nonsense with Adam, but also because after losing the isolation and restraint of the laboratory, Adam's weak body was once again at risk of being assimilated by the mage's will.

Adam slowly walked down the tower. He did not rush to fly back to the laboratory, but walked step by step in the academy. The building did not change at all, but people changed.

Adam has the ability to remember everything he has. Although he has no interest in dating people from the past, he will never forget it. But now he finds that the school has been full of new apprentices who have never seen before.

“How long has it been?”

The devil replied in a muffled voice in Adam's mind: "It's almost two years."

Adam was silent, has it been so long?

The apprentices walking among the students also looked at Adam with surprise. The two previous admissions were special circumstances. One was the emergency supplement after the failure of the Tower War, and the other was the additional opportunity obtained by Adam. The normal college admissions were based on ten years and were far from here. It is logical that there shouldn't be talents in the college that have never been seen before.

But before they could come forward to ask, they heard the previous group of apprentices saying in shock: "Adam?!"

Adam? Very familiar?

Adam ignored them, and did not even look back, and continued to walk towards the academy. Those who were familiar with his personality did not care about his attitude, but the surprise in his heart could not be reduced. They all learned what happened to Adam through their own ways. No one thought he could survive, but now Adam appeared in front of them again. Even though he didn't look very good, but-

Is Adam not dead?

In the laboratory, everyone was still practicing meditation in silence, and no one spoke because the problems encountered were no longer answered through discussion.

Suddenly William opened his mouth and said, "Everyone, I..."

The door of the laboratory opened automatically, interrupting William's words and turning James and Frank's thinking into blank.

"Ah, Adam?!"

Adam walked into the laboratory, showed a rare smile, threw the devil out of his mind and said softly: "I'm back."

......

The next morning, James, who was the first to come to the laboratory, pushed open the door. I wonder if it was because of an illusion, he felt that the laboratory was full of vitality, and that was a feeling that the road to the future was no longer a helpless person.

Among the three, he was under the greatest pressure. Because he had little lifespan, he had already shown an irresistible old attitude. If he hadn't had a good relationship with Elliot recently and could get excellent quality potions from him at a low price, James probably wouldn't be able to maintain his current state.

He said to Adam who was sweeping the floor, "Hello, Mr. Devil."

Adam who swept the floor was transformed by the devil. James knew very well that Adam could never do these chores by himself. The devil looked up at him and looked too lazy to talk, and kept muttering and cursing at Adam.

James knocked on the door of Adam's room and saw Adam sitting silently on the chair and dazed.

He did not disturb Adam, but stood aside and waited. Nearly an hour later, Adam's voice came: "Good morning, James. Is there anything wrong?"

James wanted to ask Adam for advice with all the questions he had accumulated over a year, but after seeing the scene just now, he asked worriedly: "Is the situation bad?"

Adam nodded and said indifferently: "It seems very bad now. First of all, it is physical damage. It probably requires a long recovery period. During this period, I need to continue to consume high-quality energy potions. But the worst is soul damage."

Although Adam defeated the mutated soul tearing magic, the sequelae caused by forcibly interrupting the promotion and forcibly separating energy gave him a headache. Like his body, Adam was equivalent to tearing apart part of his soul, but unlike his body, the damage to the soul is even more difficult to recover. According to Adam's calculations,

"It will probably take more than ten years to recover."

James was shocked. Ten years were only a short period of time for ordinary apprentices like them. Perhaps it was only enough for them to initially master the idea of ​​name, understand some necessary knowledge, and learn some commonly used magic. However, with Adam's speed of progress, he had no doubt that Adam could be promoted within ten years.

Of course, he didn't know that Adam had been promoted but was given up by himself.

But Adam didn't care too much about this. After this incident, the concept of giving up the concept was completely abandoned in his logical and emotional thinking.

It's just a little longer, and it's nothing compared to death.

Just as James wanted to come forward to ask for questions, the devil turned into the image of Elliot and walked in. He said angrily: "Master, Elliot is here to find you."
