Chapter 844
Dim lights to protect eyes, small, medium, large.
"Fenrir, you're back. Who are these two?"
A middle-aged man wearing old leather armor, with a handsome appearance like an elf, walked over from not far away. He glanced at Dorothy and Ati, then asked the dog-witch Miss with a friendly smile.
"Mr. Adam, this is..."
Fenrir just wanted to introduce them, but when the words reached her lips, she suddenly froze.
By the way, what were these two called again?
The dog-witch Miss only then realized that she seemed not to even know the names of these two people. After all, she wasn't really familiar with them; they had only met a few hours ago.
"I am Hel Mosi, and she is called Astimos. We are friends of Miss Fenrir, and we might be bothering you here for a few days."
Dorothy timely took over the words Fenrir was stuck on, and she said this.
And Ati, who was still being tucked under her arm and hadn't been put down, was stunned again when she heard this.
By the way, did she tell the teacher her name? Why would the teacher know?
Miss Demon King discovered a blind spot, then turned her head and threw this matter aside.
Hehehe, the teacher knows my name; she has me in her heart.
Sigh, you can never wake a smart person who is pretending to be asleep.
"Is that so? Then welcome, welcome. As long as you two don't mind the poor conditions here. I am the village chief of this village; if you two have any matters, you can come find me at any time."
Adam, on the other hand, also looked at these two witches, who clearly had many problems, with some confusion.
He had watched Fenrir grow up, so he naturally knew her temperament clearly; this child wouldn't just bring people whose names she didn't even know home.
Therefore, he had rushed over in a hurry just now when he sensed these two strange yet powerful auras approaching.
He was somewhat worried about whether Fenrir had encountered any trouble.
Although with Fenrir's personality, if she were truly in trouble, even if she died outside, she absolutely wouldn't bring it home. But after all, this was the Witch World, and there were too many strange spells; sometimes people were always helpless.
It's just that the current situation was a bit beyond Adam's expectations.
Fenrir's consciousness seemed quite clear, which meant that these two were brought back by her own initiative, yet she didn't even know their names.
Moreover, this witch Miss called Hel Mosi also made him feel quite strange. Although it was their first meeting, Adam couldn't help but feel a mysterious sense of closeness the moment he saw her.
This was absolutely not the restlessness of a man who couldn't move his feet after seeing a beauty; as a hero, he had long since transcended that desire and had almost no worldly desires.
If one had to describe this feeling, it was a bit like an old father seeing his daughter. But the problem was, where would an old bachelor like him get a daughter? He hadn't been a father, and he didn't actually know what a real old father would feel when seeing his daughter.
In short, it was just inexplicable.
He just instinctively felt that this child must be a good child and could be trusted.
It's just that, as a hero engaged in a high-risk profession like a hero who had lived until now, Adam knew very well that this kind of inexplicable goodwill definitely had problems. It might be that this Miss Hel Mosi possessed some special witch ability, so he checked himself very vigilantly.
But the result was that he found no abnormalities at all.
Adam was very certain that his will had absolutely not been influenced by any external force.
This wasn't his mysterious confidence, but just a judgment made as the strongest hero.
In the realm of the mind, there were very few existences that could shake his will, whether it was a false god or a high-ranking witch—none of them could.
And these two young little witches, in his view, really couldn't be considered strong enemies.
For example, this Miss Astimos beside her—even though this witch Miss also hid it well, Adam saw through the essence of this guy's hopeless soul of extreme evil at a glance.
This made his hero instinct stir.
Well, if he were twenty years younger, then this Miss Astimos would already be a corpse by now. Fortunately, he wasn't as irritable as he was when he was young.
Of course, it was mainly because this Miss Hel Mosi was here; otherwise, if it were only Miss Astimos, although he wouldn't directly draw his sword, he probably would have found it hard to greet her with a smiling face like he was now.
So, it's truly strange; where did this sense of closeness come from? Could it really be that I'm old and want to enjoy family happiness? But I had absolutely no such thoughts before this?
The hero was very confused in his heart.
On the other side, Dorothy was also sizing up this old father who had changed into a new skin.
"Hiss, this strength is a bit beyond the scale; how come I didn't know my dad was so powerful?"
Just by slightly sensing the aura of Adam opposite her, the Home Witch secretly clicked her tongue in her heart.
No way, Dad, you call this strength human?
Not to mention anything else, just that mana of about 800,000 Total Mana was already completely beyond the level a human should have.
Although it was said that this was only the life mana mastered by humans, far from being as omnipotent and powerful as the witch's original mana, if it were just pure combat destructive power, there really wasn't that big a difference between original mana and degraded mana.
So, that meant this Adam possessed at least the strength to wrestle with a top-tier peak witch.
Furthermore, he didn't just have empty strength; he didn't lack technique either.
"What a truly beautiful posture; perfect, impeccable. This is the first time I've seen anyone other than Mother possess such a perfect posture."
Dorothy praised in her heart.
As a Wu Shen, she could easily see how a person's martial arts cultivation was from their behavior, but now, looking at Adam opposite her, she actually felt a sense of oppression she had only felt when facing Long Ma before.
That was the pressure of a top-tier martial artist. Such an existence had already turned martial arts into instinct, integrating it into every move and action. Therefore, no matter when, if you looked at him, you would find that there were no flaws in the other party.
Adam opposite her was just like that.
Although this new-skin dad was talking to her with a smile and looked harmless, the Home Witch calculated the battle in her mind using inspiration.
She discovered that even if she launched a sneak attack without any struggle right now, the next moment, that ragged-looking long sword at Adam's waist would behead her with one strike.
This was a martial arts cultivation that surpassed the Fairy King; it was a brand-new realm that was difficult for Dorothy to understand even now.
So, was this really a skill that could be mastered in the short life of a human?
Dorothy had actually always known that her dad was quite strong. After all, when wandering in the lower realms before, Adam basically defeated everyone in seconds.
Even after meeting Annie later and coming to the Witch World, Adam still lived quite well in this witch society. Although he had been working as Annie's deputy on weekdays, in reality, Annie was just a figurehead—after all, it wasn't easy for a former person to change careers. In fact, the person who really did the work in that Haiyue Island Research Institute had always been Adam.
Dim lights to protect eyes, small, medium, large.
Being able to become the core of a research institute among a group of witches was enough to explain Dad's talent.
As for how powerful Adam really was, the Home Witch actually didn't know. After all, with her previous 10,000 Total Mana, she couldn't test it, and she didn't really want to fight her own father.
But now, this wild Adam made Dorothy understand how terrifying her dad would be if he were allowed to develop freely.
Damn, a human Wu Shen; this is absurd.
If it weren't for the two burdens, herself and Annie, if she let her dad Adam grow freely, could he also grow into a wild human Magic God?
The Home Witch clicked her tongue in her heart.
It's no wonder Ati was always making a fuss about running away just now. If this weren't really her own dad, Dorothy would actually have weak legs too.
This was a special existence that truly surpassed the limits of the race by individual will.
Generally, such existences were honored as heroes and were all characters in the myths and legends of various races. Now, they could be considered to have seen a living legend.
And on the side, Fenrir, seeing that the hero also showed a smile and didn't object to the two staying, also breathed a sigh of relief.
Actually, she had been quite scared just now, deeply afraid that the hero would blame her for bringing people back randomly.
Of course, she was also worried that she had misjudged, deeply afraid that this terrifying Miss Hel Mosi was actually a bad person.
And now, after the hero had looked them over, she was finally at ease, knowing that although this guy who liked to turn people into dogs at every turn looked a bit strange, he was indeed a good person.
"Mm-hmm, then Mr. Adam, you go ahead and get busy; I'll take them to settle down first."
Fenrir said this.
"Go, go, I'll take everyone to prepare a welcome banquet first. This Avalon Village hasn't had newcomers for a long time, so it's just right to liven things up."
Adam waved his hand with a smile.
Just like that, Dorothy and Ati followed Fenrir toward her residence.
And until the few of them turned a corner and escaped Adam's sight, the dog-witch Miss and Miss Demon King both breathed a sigh of relief in unison.
"Phew, Teacher, you really are worthy of being you; you were actually able to keep a straight face in front of such a monster."
Ati said this with rare sincerity.
She had truly been scared to death just now. That man only glanced at her, and Ati had the feeling of a frog being stared at by a snake; it was truly trembling from body to soul and even the mind.
And Dorothy finally put Ati down at this moment, but Miss Demon King was still holding her hand and unwilling to let go.
The Home Witch originally wanted to break free, but she noticed that Ati's hand was truly trembling, knowing that this guy was truly scared, so she didn't continue to break free, just rolled her eyes in annoyance.
"If you don't do anything wrong, you don't fear the ghost knocking at the door. Why are you afraid for no reason? Besides, that's just a human."
She said this.
And to this, Ati puffed up her cheeks in anger.
"I don't admit that kind of monster is a human! He's just wearing a layer of human skin; in what other way does he look like a human?"
"Miss Astimos, please apologize. Although Mr. Adam is indeed very powerful and has great dignity, he is a good person. I absolutely will not allow anyone to slander him at will."
Fenrir, who was leading the way, turned her head when she heard this, and she said to Ati very angrily.
This was truly anger; the dog ears on the dog-witch Miss's head stood up, and the tail behind her was also tucked in.
This was the attack posture of a canine.
"Hehe..."
However, toward Fenrir's threat, Miss Demon King was very disdainful.
Who does this guy think she is, trying to teach her how to do things?
It's just that, while laughing, Ati couldn't keep sneering, because she noticed the chilling gaze from behind her head.
Sure enough, turning her head, she saw her own teacher also squinting at her.
"Sorry, it's my fault; I apologize."
Miss Demon King apologized immediately and sincerely.
She wasn't doing this out of fear, just purely out of respect for the teacher.
Alright, mainly because she felt that the teacher was truly angry.
Wuwuwu, the teacher actually got angry at me for an outsider; this grudge...
Forget it, the teacher is by my side, I'm in a good mood, so I won't hold a grudge for now.
And Fenrir, seeing that Ati had surrendered, looked at Dorothy with some gratitude, then spoke up with rare initiative.
"Lady Hel Mosi, you are truly amazing too; this is the first time I've seen someone so calm in front of Mr. Adam."
She also said with some surprise.
"Why do you say that? Is that gentleman very scary and hard to get along with?"
Dorothy also asked along with the words.
"No, no, Mr. Adam is naturally a very good person; he is quite easy to get along with."
Fenrir shook her head hurriedly. Having never been to school, she was also somewhat conflicted at this moment, not knowing how to express her thoughts.
"How should I put it? It's not scary, it's dignity. Mr. Adam is too powerful, and he is also truly good, so everyone in the village respects him, just like witches respect the Two Kings, I guess."
"Is that so? Then this Mr. Adam is truly a powerful person."
Dorothy also nodded and agreed.
And her words immediately made the dog-witch Miss even more excited, looking like "as long as you also think Mr. Adam is powerful, then we are sisters from different parents," and her chatterbox opened just like that.
"Mr. Adam is naturally very powerful. I heard from others in the village that Mr. Adam used to be a hero when he was young."
"Miss Hel Mosi, do you know about heroes? Witches might not believe in this, but it's the kind of hero in mortal storybooks."
Fenrir said this while gesturing with her hands.
Dorothy nodded.
"Mm, I know, the kind of hero who slays dragons, saves princesses, and defeats demons."
"Mm-hmm, Miss Hel Mosi, you really are a cultured person; you know so much. I heard from others that Mr. Adam had truly slain dragons before, saved elf princesses, overthrown the Angel Church, and destroyed evil demon cults..."
Fangirl promoting...
Sigh, I had another argument with my family about getting married, and I didn't start typing until after ten o'clock. It's so annoying, my head is huge, I'm dizzy. Why must people get married?
