"A market where commoners are located?"
Vanessa led Adam and the Three people, flying towards the market.
They used a magic carpet operated by Adam, not a broom.
After all, four people riding a broom to the city would be a bit too uncomfortable.
Adam was in a somewhat bad mood. As a young man with advanced ideas, the thought of this feudal era, where people were treated differently, bothered him.
Nobles were high and mighty, separating commoners from themselves.
Even below commoners, there was actually a term for 'inferior people,' which truly infuriated Adam.
"It's laughable, really. Commoners, who are casually bullied by nobles, actually look down on people from the border regions…"
Adam muttered to himself.
"Adam, what's wrong?" Vanessa asked.
"Nothing…"
One day, we will definitely change this place!
...Nean Border, town.
"Everyone is so busy!"
Adam and his group strolled through the city, seeing many "familiar faces."
Charmy was eating heartily.
Gauche bought a pile of girls' clothes, seemingly to give to his sister.
Finral was flirting with young girls.
And a blue figure flashed past Adam and his group from behind.
"Sister will take you all to a good place."
Vanessa led everyone to a dead-end alley. She was the first to pass through the wall.
Everyone looked at each other suspiciously, then immediately followed.
"The Black Market, as the name suggests, has everything you can't buy on the regular market!"
Vanessa explained.
"A good place!"
Adam's expression brightened. Only in such a mixed and chaotic place could one find good things.
Of course, there would definitely be more traps.
"I'll go look over there!"
Adam zoomed off and disappeared in a flash.
"Hey! Then we won't wait for you later!"
Vanessa shouted, then turned to Asta and Noelle and said, "Let's go look over there!"
The items sold in this Black Market were dazzling, but upon closer inspection, almost all of them were junk.
"I shouldn't have had any hope."
Adam was a bit disappointed. He didn't have a golden eye, so he couldn't find anything good.
"From the south, from the north, from the capital, from the Nean Border, come and see!"
Adam's old acquaintance, Latin, was shouting in front of his stall.
"Newly arrived Magic Beast blood! Drinking it can nourish yin and strengthen yang, enhance magic, and even…"
"Even what?"
"Awaken a second type of magic!"
Latin boasted about the blood of some unknown Magic Beast in his hand, fooling the surrounding people into a daze.
"You're just blowing smoke, Latin! You're just like your dad, making money by deceiving people."
"Exactly! Awaken a second magic? Why don't you just say it can directly surpass the Magic Emperor!"
"If it can awaken, why don't you drink it!"
Voices of doubt rose from the surroundings, but Latin still said, without changing his expression, "I am a merchant; I don't need powerful magic. As long as I can make money, that's enough."
"Moreover, this item comes from an evil pig emitting black aura. Even if it can't awaken a second type of magic, it can still nourish yin and strengthen yang and enhance magic."
Adam originally didn't want to bother with this fat man, but as soon as he heard it was blood from an evil pig, he immediately walked to Latin's stall.
"Fatty, how much for the item!"
"You… oh, it's Big Brother Adam. What brings you here?"
Latin was a bit scared of Adam. Even now, whenever he thought of that day's events, he'd feel like going to the bathroom in his sleep at night.
"Are you telling the truth?"
"What truth?" Latin was a bit hesitant to sell. Something like awakening magic was clearly a gimmick.
If a lunatic like Adam found out he had lied to him, wouldn't he skin him alive!
Latin thought, and his body shivered unconsciously.
"Is it really blood from an evil pig?"
Adam didn't care about awakening magic. Instead, he frowned, suspecting that Latin was selling cheap wild boar blood.
"I can guarantee that!" Latin said, hearing this, and quickly held up the blood to explain, "This is a wicked Magic Pig. All the pigs in the pig farm listen to it. If this guy wasn't so disobedient, the farm owner would never have killed him."
"What about the other parts of the pig?" Adam asked.
"They were all eaten. It crippled the farm owner's right leg, and the owner, furious, killed it directly. Seeing the pig's blood was golden-red, he thought it was extraordinary and decided to sell it."
Latin's face was wreathed in smiles, and he said ingratiatingly, "I specifically kept this item because I was waiting for Big Brother Adam to come. You name a price; I won't haggle…"
"One thousand Yulius!"
Latin froze instantly, then stammered, "You're not joking, are you?!"
"What do you think?"
Adam took the pig's blood from Latin's hand, tossed a coin, and turned to leave.
"Demon! He's a bandit!"
Latin's face twitched with anger, then he took a deep breath and said, "Never mind, it's from my own home anyway, and it didn't cost anything."
Latin put away the coin and started hawking again, "Our store's new special goat milk…"
..."Let's try it!"
Adam stared at the chicken blood in his hand and began to carefully heat it up.
High-temperature sterilization had to be done well.
"So beautiful!"
Adam walked out of the Black Market, placing the transparent glass cup in the sunlight. It was golden with a hint of blood-red, utterly beautiful.
"With healing magic, it should be fine."
Adam walked to the side of the Golden Dawn Squad and gulped it down in one go.
The boiling drink flowed down Adam's throat and was absorbed by his body.
"No effect… No, my eyes are a bit itchy!"
Adam hastily opened his grimoire, and the page belonging to the big fat pig had lit up.
"This is amazing!"
Adam's face twisted, his lips curved into a semicircle, and he cackled wildly.
He had forgotten his roots!
"I, who have awakened the powers of the dragon, pig, and chicken, am invincible."
Adam was once again ready to face the world with an invincible stance.
"What's wrong with that guy?"
"Maybe there's good news at home!"
"Didn't you see what he's wearing?! Black Bulls, that evil Knight Order."
"Run, he's looking back!"
Adam's gaze swept over, and the onlookers immediately scattered and fled, faster than rabbits.
"It's so late. Vanessa and the others should have gone back. I should go back too!"
Adam flew directly towards the Black Bulls Headquarters.
"A new member?"
An Old Woman muttered to herself.
A golden light flashed, and the true form of Magic Emperor Julius appeared.
"Should I test him?"
Just as Julius was about to follow, he happened to encounter the Golden Dawn Squad on a mission.
"Next time! First, I'll go witness the new magic of the Clover Kingdom youth."
With a whoosh, Magic Emperor Julius disappeared from the spot, as if he had never been there.
Yuno truly saved Adam once. If he had encountered the Magic Emperor's test at that moment,
Adam would have caused who knows what kind of trouble.
After all, a young man who has gained new power is brave and fearless.
