Chapter 504  CH 488: TENSION

(AN: I apologize sincerely for the low update. This was not in my plans at all and I am pretty overworked currently. As I said previously, I terminated the contract with WN. The plan was for chapters to be taken down by the 29th but it was swiftly taken down. Far faster than I anticipated. I had to spend the last few days thinking about the course of action and rewriting/Editing old chapters of SHK to make things flow better before posting on RR yesterday.

Anyway, it's officially over. SHK was taken down from WN and I will not post this story on WN again. The story will be exclusively for Patreon/Royal Road/Scribble Hub and eventually Amazon/KU. If you were readers of SHK on wn and saw this, I apologize once again for being unable to warn you guys. If you still want to support me, you can easily do so by Joining Patreon or simply following and reviewing my story on Royal Road.

Here is the Link: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/78110/son-of-the-hero-king-a-progressive-fantasy

Or just search Son of The Hero King in Royal Road. Even if you never read SHK until now, I would be happy to receive your review there heh. Thanks for all the support and sorry for the abrupt ending. This was a very long message but needed to share this. Now, time to enjoy the chapter.)

After a rather hard day and another sleepless night, Adam had been hoping to have more free time to enjoy his life. Sadly the mission he had accepted earlier was biting him in the ass and he was forced to think about what to do now.

Thankfully, his mental faculties were as high as ever and he could operate even without sleeping. 'I wonder what surprise Medusa was talking about.'

In moments like this, Adam had to restrict his power to stop him from seeing things he did not want to see yet. After all, the funny thing about surprise was being surprised.

It would be counterproductive to enter while knowing everything already. This made him understand a little more why characters in stories gifted with power related to knowledge generally regretted having it.

Sometimes Knowing too much took the fun out of life.

It was with this idea that Adam nonchalantly opened the door of the office where the meeting had to take place before immediately realizing that knowing was generally better than not knowing at all.

'Damn…'

Unlike Luvia he did not immediately close the door in fright at the view but he was truly one finger at closing it. But instead of leaving and fleeing the place, he took a deep breath and calmed down. Thɪs chapter is updated by Noᴠelꜰire.nᴇt

"Damn…"

His opinion still leaked from his mouth.

Three girls who were all at the top tiers young powerhouse of the current Generation if Adam was not counted of course.

Makoto Kaminari.

Saintess Lisia and finally

Tsubasa Hanekawa. His eyes trailed over each of them. Young women of his age with great prowess and talent from all other the world.

But now they were all here in the same room.

Finally, he lowered his head and looked down at the young woman he had bumped into a few moments ago, "Good morning."

He gave a polite salutation while wondering who the hell that girl was.

[Name: Luvia Osborn

Alias: Age: 18

Race: Human

Affiliation: Academy of Magic

Overall Rating: B]

'Ah… Only Silver?'

How long had it been since he saw someone his age with a rating of B or lower? Speaking of which, B was pretty high for her age, right?

'I guess she is pretty talented.'

It was just him who had become too used to even more shocking sights. For others, a B rank was the end of the way for them. A rank most hunters couldn't even reach even if they tried all their life, this proved that she was undoubtedly very talented and a proficient witch.

He was starting to realize what happened. The team he asked for initially had a few hunters, two priests, and a wizard. It seemed like things changed to come to this. Stepping away from the witch, Adma started walking before finally reaching the other three, "Saintess. I knew about Makoto and Tsubasa. May I ask why you are here?"

"To keep an eye on you."

It was such an abrupt response but with a whoosh, one could see Makoto's blade resting right under the neck of Elysia but the young saintess showed no fluster.

"Interesting I did not think that you three were so close. I guess at least there will be no ambiguity about orders."

Elysia nodded to herself even as a side was on her throat ready to pierce her and a scythe was around her neck, ready to take it away at any moment.

The two had responded even more swiftly than Adam had anticipated, and they were both quite wary of her.

This was normal, for long the church had been the enemy of many forces in the supernatural worlds. Japan had not been spared with Shintoism slowly becoming rarer in Japan and more tourist spot "Heh. I do not believe I have heard well. Why would the church care to observe Adam?"

Tsubasa's killing intent flickered slightly in her eyes. She was not just threatening. Every way, no matter which position she was in, her relationship with the church could never be good. If this girl dared to even cause the slightest problem for Adam, she would kill her here and now.

A dead genius was no longer a genius and the Church would not go to war against the Heavenly Court for a dead saint.

"I am telling nothing but the truth. I apologize if it soured the start of our journey."

"Speak."

Makoto was much more direct in her words. Meanwhile, Luvia was looking everywhere like the cat that was witnessing three giant lions face each other.

She did not know what was happening. She did not know why people were about to kill each other.

All she knew was that…She desperately wanted to go home.

Finally, just as the tension was about to escalate, the door once again opened to show a rather gaunt and tired middle age.

"Hello. I received a message that everyone was here now. I apologize for the lateness. Hum?"

Mark, his face tired, looked all around and noticed the tension in the air…The draws weapons were also a good indicator he had to admit.

In the end, he sighed and squeezed his eyes slightly, "Please…The incoming mission is both very dangerous and very important. If you will not be able to work as a team. It would be better to desist now rather than cause more problems."

"Hi, Mark. I see that you are still alive."

Mark gave a wan smile at Adam's joke, "I am happy to see you too."

Adam chuckled, "Tsubasa, Makoto, sit down. I am sure Elysia meant nothing bad when she said that. Let's not make Mark's work harder than it already is."

Makoto immediately retreated and sat back in silence while Tsubasa squinted a little as she watched Elysia before making her Scyth vanish.

Witnessing all this, Mark sighed.

At least — They could start now.
