[The two people that have caused me trouble and kept their eye on me since integrating with the Dungeon System are both called Angela. One a detective and the other from a large cultivation family. Is this part of my luck, or is fate toying with me. At least they both are nice to look at] thought Adam to himself as he chuckled slightly,

"What is so funny," asked Angela aggressively.

"Calm down, I am not going to be anybody's subordinate and can't you talk like an ordinary person, instead of acting like some olden day princess," said Adam, knowing that if he continued to allow her to speak to him in that manner, she wouldn't respect him.

"You can still talk arrogantly with your measly cultivation level. You know of the Maxwell Family, but do you know what we are capable of" 

Adam knew that they could see through his cultivation level, and although that made it so that he couldn't hide what level he was at from them, he was glad that, that was the case.

If they thought that he was merely a rank 4 Novice, then he would be able to shock them with his power and have the element of surprise if he ever needed to battle or escape from any of them.

"The Maxwell Family. One of the large cultivation families in New York that are too arrogant for their own good and will soon be crushed by the Lin Family. Is that the family you are talking about?" asked Adam sarcastically with a hint of mockery.

Angela and the guardian didn't know how to react to his words and were shocked. Adam had been quite respectful and cooperated with them without any complaints, but he had completely changed.

Adam needed to show his worth and not allow himself to be stepped on, but he also needed to be careful not to go too far and get himself killed by them.

"Currently I am also against the triad and the Lin Family because of their disgusting acts, but I am by no means a hero and was merely passing by at the time. However, what I have gathered from that altercation was that the Lin Family and the triad will easily be able to destroy the Maxwell Family" stated Adam, unafraid of how they would react.

"Despite their horrible actions, they are united and have the honour and pride of their gang and family that they fight to protect. They accept all those that want to join and allow anyone to rise through the ranks, unlike what I have seen of the Maxwell Family that are too arrogant for their own good and haven't grown. All the other cultivation families are developing, while the Maxwell Family is slowly being taken over by the large cultivation families because of their arrogance, complacent nature and lack of unity" continued Adam.

Everything he said was what he believed and was right, as every word struck Angela and her family's pride. Adam looked straight into Angela's eyes and continued firing shots are her family, and everything that he said was clearly right.

"I can probably assume that you are fighting with your cousins, uncles, aunties and other relatives over who will be the next head of the family, yet you haven't once tried to work together to grow and strengthen the family. New York will soon become a battlefield for cultivators and it isn't looking good for the Maxwell Family" said Adam.

He had read through all the information that Elizabeth had about the large cultivation families and had come to the conclusion that the Maxwell was the one that was declining the fastest out of all the families.

Angela's face flushed red in annoyance, but she couldn't refute what he said and knew that he was right.

Seeing her entering a vulnerable state, Adam activated the Charm Skill and increased the Charisma that was active, from 3 points to 7.

Instantly Angela felt something that had changed about Adam, but the guardian who was driving didn't sense anything since Adam was targeting his Charm Skill at Angela.

"I am not saying this because I want to offend you, it is merely because you needed a reality check. I am willing to ally with you and offer my assistance, in return, I want resources and support. However, I am not going to join your family" stated Adam as he looked directly into her eyes.

His red eyes had become lighter and alluring to Angela who blushed slightly and looked away from Adam.

[Ha, it seems the Charm Skill was effective on her. I had to knock her down slightly, and since we established that we are the same age, I was able to affect her more with the Charm Skill] thought Adam to himself.

"What do you say. Currently, your guardian can easily kill me and so can you, but I can offer you advice and my skill set is suited to espionage and assassinating, so I will be useful to you. While what you offer me is obvious" stated Adam.

Adam didn't want to officially join the Maxwell Family as that would restrict him and he was unsure whether his master would allow him to do so. However, by befriending Angela, who seemed to be influential within the Maxwell Family, he could assist her from the shadows, while she could support him if he needed it.

His master had forbidden him to join any organisation or cultivation family without his permission, and he didn't want to go against his master.

He had already informed his master of the Silver Moon Auction House that he had become partnered with, and his master was fine with that as he could see that Adam had control in that partnership.

What his master didn't want was for Adam to be controlled or influenced by a organisation or family that was more powerful than him, and was most afraid of being betrayed and revealed to the world.

As long as Angela agreed to become friends with him, he could assist her, while she could also support him using her family's power and Adam was quite sure that his master would be fine with him being friends with somebody from a cultivation family.
