Chapter-8 [3rd Member]

Adam and Lilliana quickly took a bath and appeared in the living room. Adam wore a white shirt and black pants while Lilliana wore her office dress consisting of a tight skirt and white shirt.

"So, what is the plan?" Lilliana asked as sat on Adam's lap on the sofa that was not destroyed.

A smile appeared on Adam's face as he wrapped his arms around Lilliana, "I am going to check first on who were the people who had joined with that bastard…and kill them and also I will make sure this hotel loses all the fame it had."

"Hmm…what should I do?" Lilliana excitedly asked.

'…isn't she more excited them me to make them pay…well she was in more danger so its natural her anger is like this…' Adam inwardly thought.

[…] Celeste chooses to stay silent.

"Could you morph into a bat right now?" Adam asked.

Lilliana closed her eyes for a moment before she opened them again and nodded, "I could but not for long as my power is nearly half during daytime."

"Huh…?" A confused look appeared on Adam's face.

[She is a pure-blood vampire, but she is not a day-walker so it's natural that she would be weaker during the daytime. While you are not even a vampire, those restrictions do not apply to you.]

Celeste sensing Adam's doubt answered.

'I see…so I as an Incupire have no restrictions that the vampires generally have but Lilliana still has to face those restrictions…' Adam calmly analyzed Celeste's words.

Then he looked at Lilliana with her face near her with a serious look, "You should go to the kitchen area and destroy everything there or ruin them however you want. Then you could create more chaos with the VIPs in the hotel."

A bright smile beamed on Lilliana's face when she heard that. She quickly nodded her head, kissed Adam's lips, and stood on his lap.

"Then, I am going to go now~"

Saying that her human form started to turn into Vampire as wings appeared behind her back and sharp fangs on her mouth. The wings wrapped around her as her body started to shrink.

*Pop*

Then, she appeared in a form of a small bat with bright red eyes. Lilliana in her bat form gave a nod to Adam and flew out of the room.

Adam sat there in the room for several seconds before he looked at the ceiling, "Celeste, why did she transform into Vampire form first to transform into a bat?"

This question had confused him. He had turned into a bat easily yesterday night even when he was in human form but Celeste had turned into Vampire form to turn into a bat.

[Hmm~ Not everyone is like you, my child~ She is a normal case as she had to adjust to her vampiric powers and control them at her will.]

"Wait…am I different then?"

[Yes~ You have Goddess' blessing~ With that, your power and skills are quickly adjusted to your use.]

"…so, like plot armor?" Adam asked with a weird look on his face.

[Hmm~ Hmm~ I wouldn't say that though. You are Goddess' apostle so it's natural that she takes care of you, and you are also innately talented, more than other humans.]

Adam was even more hearing those words but he decided to drop the topic for now.

'Well, it's hard to understand just from the words so all I could do is observe everything.'

Adam then stood from the sofa and looked at the bedroom where he had laid Doctor Mo yesterday. A smirk formed on his face.

"Doctor Mo, I think you have enough peeping?" Adam asked in a dangerous tone.

The door of the room where Doctor Mo was opened slightly and with Adam's words, the door opened completely and Doctor Mo appeared with his head full of sweat. His body was trembling uncontrollably from fear.

Adam standing in front of his eyes was like a demon. 'Damn it…!! I shouldn't have taken the job yesterday! Who would have thought that this person is a demon in human skin! I don't want to die…!!'

Doctor Mo was experiencing the worst fear in his life. The urgent job he had taken yesterday turned into a game for his life. All he wanted was to earn money but what he got was the risk to lose his life.

Adam smiled a little. He had already sensed Doctor Mo peeking at him before due to his power to control the blood but the range was still just around the room only cause of the low level of the skill.

Doctor Mo stepped forward with his trembling legs and got on his knees. His face was full of tears and snot.

"P-please spar m-me!" Doctor Mo begged.

Adam hearing that fell into his thoughts and then sat on the sofa again. With his left foot on his right knee, he stared at Doctor Mo with a proud look on his face. It was like he was the King of the World.

"Doctor Mo, how old are you this year?" Adam asked in a light tone.

Doctor Mo didn't understand the reason why Adam had asked that but he still opened his trembling lips and answered, "6-61 years old…"

An amused smile formed on Adam's face, "So, how long could you live for now?"

"10 years at most…" Doctor Mo knew his condition more than anyone else. He knew that if nothing went wrong, he would die in 10 years or even less.

'Celeste, what should I do to make another person join the church without turning them into my subordinate?' Adam asked inwardly. He knew he could just turn Doctor Mo into his slave or mark him as his subordinate but he didn't want to do that.

Doctor Mo was way too old for Adam to use. So, making Doctor Mo join the church without turning him into his subordinate would be the best choice for him.

[Hmm~ All you have to do is to get the approval of another party. Then if they agreed, they would see the option of joining the church in front of their eyes. But they would remain human or whatever race they are except gaining some skills~]

Adam hearing that smirked at Doctor Mo, "Is that enough for you?"

"What do you mean by that?" Doctor Mo asked back in a trembling tone.

"Don't you want to live longer? Don't you want to have your name known in the world? Is your life as a little doctor in the hospital good enough?" Adam's voice was like the devil's that pierced Doctor Mo in the heart.

Adam stood from his seat and walked toward Doctor Mo who was on his knees and bought his face near Doctor Mo's ears.

"Imagine a life where your name is known to the whole world. Your family lives a life that they never imagined and you will be their hero."

Adam's words become fuel for Doctor Mo who was already struggling to keep his calm.

Doctor Mo had worked in several hospitals in the past but got thrown out of all of them because of the internal politics and the corruption in them. He and his wife had struggled for years, going from one place to another in the hope to get a sustainable job.

He had a daughter and a son, while the son was born when he was 35 years old and was already living with his wife, but his daughter was born when he was 45 years old. SO, she has been struggling with Doctor Mo and his wife. He wanted a good life for his daughter but his son refused to let her live with him and she had been moving around with Doctor Mo and his wife.

6 years ago, he became completely tired of all the struggle and decided to just work in this restaurant. While the pay was less, he don't have to move around that much but it was a problem for him as he and his family lived in a small apartment while his daughter went to a small high school.

'Do I have to think that much…? If I could give a healthy life to my daughter and my wife and see them growing…then…even if I have to sell my soul to the devil standing in front of me…I would do it…'

Doctor Mo trembled as his will broke down. He kneeled in front of Adam.

"Please…give me that chance…" Doctor Mo begged.

Even Adam was starting to feel bad now for making an old man in his 60s behave like that. But there was nothing he could do cause Doctor Mo had already seen him and Lilliana yesterday and even now.

'Well, let's just give this old man a good life so that he could be happy…' Adam thought.

'Celeste, this much should be enough, right?'

[Yes~]

'Good…'

Adam looked down with a proud look on his face, that was to maintain his image as the Head Priest, "Doctor Mo, then are you ready to join the Church of Debauchery?"

"Yes—" Doctor Mo answered immediately but then he paused. 'W-wait…Church of Debauchery?'

Doctor Mo lifted his head and was about to ask what Adam meant by Church of Debauchery but then he was left stunned. A force fell over his body, making him shiver.

'Mana…huh…'

Even though the force was invisible, Adam was able to analyze that it was Mana.

Doctor Mo's eyes were wide open. He felt his body breaking down completely and then repairing itself. His muscles become stronger with each breakdown. The pain was too much that he wasn't able to utter a single scream.

[Hoo~ He gained quite a benefit due to his strong desire to live longer and to provide a better life for his family. It's rare to see people behave like this in this much old age.] Celeste commented.

Adam stared at Doctor Mo to analyze what was happening in his body but failed. Even with his power to control blood, he wasn't able to understand the mysteries of the process that Doctor Mo was going through.

After 5 minutes, the mana surrounding Doctor Mo vanished. What was left there was an old man with long silver hair and red eyes laying on the floor while heavily panting.

"Huff…Huff…"

Doctor Mo was feeling unbelievable changes in his body. His body which was way too weak before felt full of strength. Even though he was panting, the feeling of intaking air without any problem was something he experienced for several years. His eyes which were turning blurry over time become completely clear. The fat that he had gained over time was burnt.

"Good, after you have calmed down, go and resign from this place and meet me at the entrance of the hotel in 2 hours," Adam said and quickly morphed into a bat and flew out of the room.
