51 Going to another world for a mission
[5:00]
Five minutes
... In five minutes, Adam will meet his fellow members. Even though that's not true as this is only limited 3 members, and he has already met Rimuru
The world of RWBY is a low tiered one, it is not as dangerous as people usually think. The top powerhouses of that world is Salem and the brother gods who have disappeared
Still...
[Tragic phoenix has sent you a gift]
Adam smiled as he saw that notification. In exchange for his help, Jean had to procure a vial of blood of the Mutants that he specified
[Tragic Phoenix: Sorry... As you've said, I can't ask others for their blood without the professor finding out]
... He wasn't disappointed with that as it was something he already expected
Adam accepted the gift, a small glass of red blood appearing in the palm of his hand. This being Jean's blood which contained her genetic material
[Tragic Phoenix: I don't know what you need my blood for. But if it can help you, I don't mind you having it]
"How caring.... And naive..." He muttered as he saw her message, feeling conflicted about Jean's attitude and her general alignment
Jean Grey can be considered a "good" And morally heroic woman. He doesn't really hate it, but he isn't fond of these types of people, either
[Asterios: Thank you. Along with the methods for training I already told you about, you should go to the New York Sanctum, and subsequently Kamar- Taj. There, you can learn another way of channeling your Phoenix powers]
Saying that, Adam focused his attention on the vial of blood in front of him
... He put his hand forward as he let the purple vortex consume it
[Analyzing....]
Closing his eyes, he focused on the information Great Sage analyzed from Jean's genetic data
[Notice: One abnormality detected]
[Designating aforementioned gene as "X-gene"]
The X-gene, the source of the powers of all mutants. It gives them their supernatural powers, which at their limit, are capable of bending reality to their whims
... He is the Herscher of Corruption, the master of corruption and biology. Since these mutant powers stem from their DNA, he can naturally do the same and get these powers for himself by copying the X-gene
Eyes still closed, he felt the world once again...
Unlike with Magic sense, Jean Grey uses Psionics to affect the world around her, which allows her to use various powers like telekinesis, telepathy, empathy and so on
Because this isn't the Marvel world, Psionics obviously works differently here, hence the gene isn't as effective as it would be normally. Thankfully though, he can still use some basic powers
That is why he can feel Kiana's presence, not with magic sense, but with his telepathy
'I'm hungry...!'
'Should I bother Adam-senpai?'
'But it isn't time for lunch yet, so will he cook me food?'
'Oh! What if I try cooking?'
Adam's mouth twitched as he registered the thoughts of the white haired Tuna. The thoughts of Kiana being quite loud, and very easy to read
He needed to get these powers under control, otherwise he would hear the thoughts of everyone he comes across. This would get annoying very quickly, and he didn't want to be like Jean
Those powers are very powerful, even though they weren't in their original world. Thankfully he has Great Sage as a filter, otherwise, it would be very difficult to wait until he can get these powers under control
[Hmph]
... Obviously, with the alpha stigma, Adam can analyze how these Psionics powers work and even train them to be more powerful. Which will naturally mean that he wouldn't have to rely on Great Sage at that point
[....]
Nothing personal, but he wanted to know how to control his own power without any outside help. And although She isn't considered outside help, his pride wouldn't allow him to rely on another skill for everything
[.....]
He opened his glowing blue eyes and looked at the bottle of water that was a few meters away from him
Stretching out his hand and willing his new power, the bottle of water flew to his awaiting open palm
"Yes!" Adam exclaimed as he grinned. Psionics were one of the coolest powers which had a lot of potential
Just look at Jean Grey... Or even Tatsumaki from One Punch Man, they both have Psionics and are quite overpowered in their own respective worlds
He glanced at the timer of the Chat Room
[O:10]
"Thankfully, I have [Thought acceleration]..." He muttered as he was truly thankful for the existence of this sub-skill
He sometimes gets lost in his own thoughts, which could prove fatal in certain circumstances, so he is glad that he can accelerate his thoughts and compose himself
[0:05]
Alpha stigma blaring to life, a five pointed star revolving rapidly around an emerald symbol as the sub skill [Analyze] was activated to full power
[0:01]
Adam watched with bated breaths, waiting for the Chat Room to take him to another world so he could potentially analyze this method
[0:00]
The time came. In the blink of an eye, Adam disappeared instantly from the place he was standing previously, leaving only particles of light behind
....
..
.
Blinking his eyes, Adam digested all the information he analyzed as he deactivated the alpha stigma and his sub-skill
Thankfully, this time he managed to glean more information from the process that the Chat Room uses to traverse himself and the other members to fictional worlds out there
Although this time he was more careful, utilizing Great Sage once again as a filter to prevent the information from overwhelming him
This is her only advantage as an emotionless skill... Although he is sure that the manas evolution of her would completely analyze the travel card within seconds and without any particular difficulty, so it is even better for her to have emotions
[....?]
"That was.... Interesting'' He blurted out loud, entirely focused on digesting the information he had analyzed
"What was interesting, kid? You haven't even bought anything yet" A rough voice startled him out of his thoughts
Adam blinked once again, only now noticing that he was in a completely different environment, that was strangely resembling a club, and subsequently getting reminded that he is indeed in the world of RWBY
It's not clear how he ended up in this place... And how no one noticed anything wrong with him appearing out of thin air. And while he would normally be extremely put off by this, he now had more important matters to attend to
Such as....
He turned his gaze to someone behind the counter, looking at the man who interrupted him from his thoughts
"Interesting how they let me in here, despite being a minor, you know?" He said the first thing that came to his mind
The man behind the counter shrugged "Eh, you did bribe them, so it's not a surprise. Besides, you look like an adult if one squints his eyes hard enough"
He raised an eyebrow at him, only now noticing something off about this man
"How much will it take for you to unlock my Aura?" Adam bluntly questioned him, skipping straight to the point
His magic sense is indeed working correctly. Magicules come from the soul, and Aura of the RWBY world is similar in that regard that it also comes from the same source
The man chuckled "Heh, sorry kid. The government is strict regarding unlocking a civilian's Aura, only huntsmen have that privilege. And you definitely don't look like a huntsman"
"Hmm...." In response, Adam hummed and started tapping his fingers against the counter as he contemplated his next course of action
Money? No, from what he felt, he doesn't have the lien(This world's currency) to entice him, especially on this matter as it concerns such strict regulations from this world's government
Threatening him with force? Sure he could do that, Adam doesn't usually like to resort to violence, but if it is for unlocking Aura, something that can improve and strengthen his soul, then he is willing to go through such lengths
"Well...." He started off, the temperature in the surroundings dropping down to a freezing point, he raised his hand, ready to use his newly acquired telepathy for the first time-
"I will unlock his Aura"
Just as Adam was about to freeze this guy's legs and mind control him, a calm and confident female voice interrupted him
