Chapter 148: Morons


    Adam had won, but apparently, Lyndon didn''t think the same. Despite having lost his weapon and having been injured, he took out a big dagger and rushed at Adam.


    This made thetter sigh. Someone like this will never achieve anything in his life. Everyone had their pride, for some it was bigger and for some it was smaller. It could lead to a myriad of different personalities, and unfortunately, this Lyndon seemed to be one of those bad ones.


    Adam sent a look at the king and the skinny man, but none of them seemed to want to stop this match. He dodged a stab from Lyndon, and used his elbow to smash him in the chest. Despite his armor, Lyndon was sent back, and he lost his breath for a moment.


    While theter was trying to catch his breath, Adam looked at the skinny man and asked "What''s up with your kingdom? Does your king and the king of that other kingdom hate each other?"


    The skinny man looked at his skin, but thetter didn''t say anything, so he said "Indeed, our kingdom is at war with our closest neighbors, the Anil Kingdom."


    Adam kicked Lyndon, who hade from another assault, and then stomped on the man''s chest forcefully as he fell to the ground. His armor caved in and Lyndon coughed blood, but it was stuck in his own helmet.


    He then asked the skinny man "Don''t you care about your knight?" The skinny man replied "We have no use for a weak warrior like this. Since you have defeated him, you shall rece him. For your service for your king, you will be given gold,nd and women."


    Adam looked at the two dumbfounded, what the fuck was wrong with them? He thrashed their knight in front of them, and they were now ordering him around? He even told them he worked for other ''kings'', are they so dumb, or are they confident in their resources?


    Adam asked "If I directly bring you their king''s head, will you reward me well?" The skinny man''s eyes shone with a greedy light as he said "If you can do so then you will be given your weight in gold!"


    However, contrarily to his and the king''s expectations, Adam didn''t jump in joy. Instead, he rolled his eyes under his helmet and said "You really are morons. While at war, you don''t kill the enemy king, they will just crown another one. You need to capture the king to win a war."


    Adam could see the people around him were getting agitated, but he shut them up with a simple gesture. He raised his foot and brought it down on Lyndon''s head. Despite wearing a helmet, the metal was ttened as the head it was protecting bursted like a watermelon.


    Then, Adam punched out in the skinny man''s direction, sending a full powered [Aqua sh] in his direction. However, the skinny man was even weaker than the King, he wasn''t even a Bronze Rank, so he didn''t even see Adam move.


    He only felt a great pain in his chest, and as he looked down, he saw a hole where he heart was supposed to be, the edges were even frozen. Behind him, the wall had also been smashed, with blood and ice remaining on what was left of the wall.


    However, the skinny man never got to see this as he fell to the ground, dead. As for the King, who had remained silent until now, finally revealed an emotion. But it wasn''t fear, instead it was rage. He said with a rough voice "You dare assault my men?! Guards, arrest him!"


    The other guards in the tent were hesitant though, they had seen how strong Adam was. But there were always exceptions. One soldier who wanted to be seen in a good light by his king charged at Adam, shouting for him to die.


    The next instant, that soldier''s head just disappeared. He continued running for a couple steps before he fell to the ground, also dead.


    A few meters behind him, was Adam, his fist covered in blood. He didn''t bother with the soldier and advanced toward Harold, slowly.


    Harold still wasn''t panicking though as he yelled "I am a King! I have been chosen by our almighty god! You can''t heart me or our god will kill you!"


    Adam smirked, and said "Don''t worry, I won''t kill you." He then took a deep breath, and once he was near enough, he used his [Barbarous Roar]. He didn''t say anything, but simply focused on pouring all his nefarious intentions and experiences into this roar.


    The next instant, the entire city heard the roaring from the king''s pce, and the city quieted down in an instant. The soldiers in the room backed down as they kneeled, sweating heavily. As for the king, he was the weakest here.


    His eyes widened as fear finally settled in, but before long he fell unconscious, he had been too shocked. At the same time, he began bleeding from his seven orifices.


    Outside, the soldiers were pushed back a few meters back, while themoners who had gathered near the pce in wonder had also fallen unconscious. As for the others farther in the city, they heard the roar, and were scared, but they didn''t suffer from physical damage. This was because Adam guessed their would be children or even babies in the city, and even the echo from him using [Barbarous Roar] would kill them.


    When Adam saw Harold was bleeding from his seven orifices, he was worried for a moment he had been too heavily handed and had killed him, but then was relieved as he checked the king''s pulse.


    Once sure he was alive, Adam picked up the fat king''s body effortlessly, throwing him on his shoulder like a mere bag, and asked one of the soldiers "Where is your king''s horse? Or Lyndon''s?"


    The soldiers gulped, and one of the soldiers eventually said "In the stables, behind the pce" Adam nodded to him and walked toward the door somewhere behind the throne.


    He found a bedroom, with a big bed. There were multiple golden ornament, as well as a small mountain of gold coins.


    There was also a back door, toward which Adam walked. As he opened it, he was really led to the stables.


    There were two horses, one of them being obviously stronger than the other. The two were also scared, because of Adam''s earlier roar.


    Adam approached the stronger one of the two and calmed it down. Once it was once again serene, Adam threw the king on it, before mounting it himself. Then, with a swing of his sword, the horse was freed, and Adam guided it outside.


    Thankfully Old Adam had learned how to mount a horse in his past life. This was for Old Adam''s training to open the 4th Gate. It had led to great results, and although he didn''t use the same method in this life, it still ended up bing useful.


    As Adam led the horse toward the exit of the city, he saw the crowd ofmoners who had fallen unconscious, as well as the soldiers. He asked one of them "Where is the kingdom you are at war with?"


    The soldier looked up and said "Why would I tell you? You will destroy our kingdom with your actions." Adam looked down at the man, and said with a cold murderous voice "If you tell me, that other king will assimte your kingdom. If you don''t tell me, I will exterminate your kingdom, killing men, women and children alike. So you tell me, extermination, or assimtion?"


    The soldier''s eyes widened, and he stuttered "You You monster!" Adam rolled his eyes and said "Yeah, and the monster is going to eat you if you don''t tell him what he wants."


    The soldier relented and told Adam what he wanted. Adam smirked and led the horse out of the city. Of course he would never do something like exterminating an entire city for such a petty reason, he was just threatening that soldier.
