Adam hated being talked down to, especially by arrogant people who had only made it to their position using the help of their family's wealth and influence, rather than working hard for it themselves.
Although at the same time, he knew that was part of their luck, and luck was a key factor to someone's power, just like he had gained the Dungeon System and come across other opportunities and fortunes.
However even with his luck, he wasn't arrogant to others that didn't offend him and he would treat ordinary people how he would have treated them before he had integrated with the system.
"Come with us, we will be leaving and heading back to the Maxwell Family's main building," said the girl from the Maxwell Family as she turned around to leave.
Adam was annoyed by the girl from the Maxwell Family's tone and words, but had no choice and followed after her, not knowing what would they would do if he tried to do so.
Since he had gained the Status Peering Feature, it officially became his and was independent of the system. Because of that, he had a better grasp and understanding of how it worked and with that, he sensed that there was a difference between the way that his Status Feature was blocked.
From her guardian, he felt that it was because he surpassed a level that he would be able to gauge, but with the girl from the Maxwell Family, he felt that it was because something had interfered with the process.
That led him to believe that the girl from the Maxwell Family was yet to be an Advanced Cultivator and was merely using some sort of treasure to stop people from being able to gauge her cultivation level.
But he was by no means underestimating her and knew that since she was from one of the largest cultivation families in New York, she would be very capable.
While following after the girl from the Maxwell Family and her guardian, Adam was interested to see what had happened and why it was so quiet.
However, when he saw what was outside the area of the restaurant that he was in, he was shocked and confused to see that the other areas of the restaurant were still full and busy.
However, despite that, nobody was looking at them or paying attention to them, as if they were invisible and he couldn't hear any noise coming from all the people, which was very unusual.
"What is going on? Are we invisible? Why can't I hear anything" asked Adam, who had no idea what was going on and was baffled by what he was seeing.
"You lowly peasant. Do you not know about basic items that cultivators use?" mocked the girl from the Maxwell Family.
Adam ignored her mockery and still stayed quiet and respectful, wanting to gain some information and opportunities from her and the Maxwell Family, before attempting to get away.
He definitely couldn't make them his enemy, especially since they knew his identity, were powerful and knew where he lived, but he also couldn't allow himself to become a subordinate of their family.
"No I do not, could you please explain" answered Adam humbly.
"He, at least you know your place" scoffed the girl from the Maxwell Family.
"These are called Illusion Stones and they put up Illusion Barriers that us cultivators use. It makes it so that we can see everything that is going on around us, but we cannot hear anything, because that is how we want it to be. Meanwhile, ordinary people cannot see the cultivators in the Illusion Barrier and what they were doing, and they won't be able to hear anything that the cultivators are doing either. We put one up before entering the restaurant, and it seemed to have saved you from a lot of trouble by deterring any ordinary people from finding out what you had done" explained the girl from the Maxwell Family as she withdrew some stones from her pocket to show him what they were.
They seemed like ordinary large pebbles, but they had weird marks and intricate carvings into them, which Adam assumed was what made it work.
Adam's expression was still calm and he didn't show anything on his face, but he was amazed by how it worked and had so many questions.
"What is the range of the Illusion Stone?" asked Adam curiously.
"Eh, your really stupid aren't you. There are stones of different qualities, but the basic quality is 100 metres around where the user cast the Illusion Barrier" answered the girl with an attitude.
They continued to walk through the restaurant while avoiding contact with any person, and from that Adam came to the conclusion that if a cultivator that was in an Illusion Barrier touched somebody that was outside the Illusion Barrier, they would enter the Illussion Barrier.
It was an incredibly interesting concept for Adam to understand and he still had so many things that he wanted to ask.
"How do you use it? and what are those marks on it?" asked Adam, who still had so many questions about it.
"I have spoken to this peasant enough. You explain to him" ordered the girl to her guardian.
"The method of use is simple. They require you to provide them with Internal Energy, then after they have been provided sufficient energy, they will turn to dust and the Illusion Barrier is put up. Depending on the quality of the Illusion Stone and the amount of energy provided, they last for different amounts of time that vary from 1 minute to an infinite amount of time, which is possible, but requires an amount of energy that is unimaginable. These items just like most or all other items require Internal Energy to activate and use. The marks on it are runes, and assuming you don't know what they are, they are small carvings and imprints that are made using Internal Energy and special materials" explained the man.
