God of Crime: Strongest Mafia Boss -
Chapter 239 CH 233: SUGAR MOMMAS FOR THE WIN
Adam admired the dagger for a while with a slightly entranced expression. But then he snapped out of it.
"What the…?"
"This weapon received many enchantments. One is confusion. It can only induce a very short-term daze on those caught off guard but you should know how useful this can be in a fight. The second enchantment is obviously blood recognition. Only the one recognized can use its power. There is self-repair attached to it as well and a few more. You could say that this is a state-of-the-art weapon."
Adam nodded. Even him, who did not know much about weapons could only sigh in awe.
"Who made this?"
"Heh, I don't know if you can recognize his name. It's a recluse blacksmith and this dagger is one of the last weapons he made before retiring."
Elysia had a proud expression. No matter how mature she was, she was still a young woman of only 18 at the end of the day. She had a mischievous side as well and she was happy to see that Adam, who had been calm through the entire discussion was finally flustered, even if it was only for a while.
"This dagger is a sort of a medal and only a few exist. If you ever meet inquisitors or any combat personnel of the church, they will know that you rendered great service to the church and will give you assistance as long as you do not commit a crime."
She gave him the dagger lightly, "Of course, I think I do not need to say that you should not abuse the power this dagger gives."
Adam took the dagger and twirled it lightly. "Even though this weapon will be pretty useless in a fight against humans, I can assure you that it will automatically become a top-rated weapon if you fight devils or creatures of the night like vampires."
Devils were technically immortal when manifested in the world through someone's body. Even if they were 'killed', they would go back to hell.
Things were different when holy power was involved as it could erase their existence.
After giving the dagger, she took a pouch and threw it at him, "This is gold. Pure Gold. I don't know why those old men want to show off. But either way, this should sell for quite a good sum. I think there should be a few million. But I could be wrong."
She shrugged, "Normally you should have also gotten a whole ceremony and so but I stopped it. I believe most hunters are not interested in such; they just wanted to use this occasion to ask you to join. So instead I managed to get a much better reward."
She took out a small vial in which a golden liquid was swirling.
"This is the holy water of the highest degree possible. This small vial would be the equivalent of a super bomb against a high-ranked vampire.
At the same time, each drop from this water can change normal water into holy water of lower purity. One drop is enough for an entire barrel."
Adam chuckled.
It seemed like this was going to be a pattern.
Whenever he met a new woman alone, she would give him expensive or rare gifts.
'Well…I don't hate this pattern.'
Who would say no to gifts given in good faith?
He was sure that if he showed this to Viktor and Makarov they would be able to create something beneficial. He knew that they sometimes complained about the lack of holy water to quench the weapons with.
Until then, he would have to make do with the dagger in hand. Though it was not particularly special against humans, he felt a little much more at ease. He didn't know why, but he had the nagging suspicion that he would have to use it soon.
"Well then. I think this is pretty much all."
Adam smiled, "I am happy the church gave so much."
"Well, if you can stop another Calamity class event from happening then the church will give you as much as you want."
"Hahaha. I rather not."
Having one king of hell as an enemy was already too much in his opinion.
"Now you can decide to stay and visit the church or leave, I will not disturb you either way. But before that."
She stretched her hand, "Let's share numbers. We have an event at Christmas and I would be happy to invite you."
Adam gave her his phone number while shaking his head, "I am not really the most religious there is."
Though he had no choice but to believe in the existence of godly entities, it would be quite ironic for him to believe in God and pray to him.
"Furthermore there is already a god I serve."
Well, he was serving a fake god that was in reality himself but heh. He didn't need to enter too much in-depth.
"Do not worry. This is just an open invitation. Whether you choose to come or not is up to you."
She chuckled, "I think this will be a Christmas you will remember all your life."
"Is that so? I wonder whether I should be scared or excited."
"Both."
Elysia only gave an inexplicable smile after uttering those words.
Leaving a confused Adam as even in her emotions, all he could see was that she was excited and filled with anticipation.
After they finally shared their phone numbers, Adam simply went ahead and left.
As charming as the discussion was with Elysia, he simply had other more important things to do.
Such as making sure to eradicate a powerful gang and make a choice about his ordeal.
(AN: *Edit as of 30/05/23
AN: So, yeah it seems like I failed. I currently have 8.4K+ unlock and I need 1500 more. I have 250 priv. So I would need to write 6 chapters in 24h again and absolutely all Priv readers to unlock everything directly. The problem is we are reaching the climax of the volume and my brain is going mushy. I feel like the story quality dropped a bit since I pushed so many chapters so fast yesterday. I don't know, perhaps just stress.
Anyways guys, rant aside, you guys have been incredible. The failure is entirely on me since If I pushed a few more chapters earlier, I am sure we could have reached 10K. Not only did I go from around 190 Priv readers last month to 250 this month, but I also got 53 gifts out of which 3 were castles. Having your readers support your work always feels good. Even though failing so close to the goal is painful. Thanks for the support everyone
As such, I decided to keep the 99% off next month even though I didn't meet the goal. I don't know how many of you guys will come back as Priv Readers though I hope all of you will come back next month haha. I will try one last push today. Will most likely fail but at least I believe next month I can succeed if I plan ahead better.)
