"You want to become my friend?" asked Angela, who was baffled by the concept of friendship.

Although she was born in the modern age of technology, she had a very traditional and olden day upbringing and the only relations she understood were ones that involved transactions.

"Yes, that is what I just said"

Angela didn't know how to react or answer his question as she sat opposite him and began to think about what friends were.

Adam's Charm Skill had made it so that Adam seemed very attractive and she didn't understand why she felt that way, but it wasn't enough to cause her to make rash decisions without knowing the consequences.

"It is quite simple. When people are friends they help each other and support each other. It is a relationship that is built around two people liking the way people look, act and are. In this case, it is both an alliance and friendship, where I can attempt to offer you my assistance if you need it and you would do the same" explained Adam who could clearly see that despite her strength, she was very ignorant to how people were.

She didn't understand human emotions and had been brought up to only care about herself and her own power, which had made her character very arrogant and unlikeable.

"Does that mean me and Wayde are friends?" asked Angela.

"Kind of, but you aren't really friends yet. Friends enjoy spending time with each other and having fun, but also benefit each other in some way and most of the time offer each other something. Unlike blood ties, you can choose who you want to be friends with, and to me, it seems as though he is your subordinate and not your friend. He could be both, but that doesn't seem to be the case" answered Adam.

He had managed to break the ice and Angela had regained composure from the embarrassment that she felt, as they both began talking seriously.

"So if you become my friend, how much money do I need to give you?" asked Angela.

Adam couldn't help but facepalm at her question.

"I don't need or want your money. I have repeated myself multiple times. We can both just keep in contact and help each other when we need help" said Adam.

She sat there quietly and Adam couldn't help but look at her more closely while she was doing so.

Angela was wearing a pink and white dress that had a floral pattern, and was quite short. Most of her legs were showing and she wore pink shoes that matched her dress. She was extremely cute and although was quite short, was well-developed in other areas that caught Adam's eye.

As a whole, one would call her very pretty and her figure was very attractive to the male eye.

However, Adam didn't make it obvious that he was scanning her body and used his spiritual sense to do so, thinking that she wouldn't be able to detect it.

"Stop scanning me with your spiritual sense. It seems your control over it is not bad, but I do not like it, so stop it before I block it" stated Angela.

Adam immediately retracted his spiritual sense and made sure to note down that others could feel and sense his spiritual sense. If she blocked it, Adam had a good feeling that he would feel some sort of pain or backlash.

He felt that because he felt vulnerable when he had his spiritual sense activated, almost as if he was opening himself up to spiritual attacks. He was yet to come across them, but he was quite sure that they existed and were hard to deal with.

"I do apologise, I was merely practising the use of my spiritual sense" apologised Adam, who knew that he was wrong.

"If I was to be your friend and I was battling against somebody, would you help me in the battle," asked Angela.

"Well I wouldn't be of much help when compared to you and your guardian, but if we were friends and trusted each other, I would obviously assist you in your battles, just like you would assist me in mine" answered Adam.

Hearing his answer that seemed to be honest, Angela thought about it for a few seconds before accepted his offer of friendship.

"Okay, I will accept you as my friend. But first I want to take you to see my grandfather who is currently the head of the family" accepted Angela, who had become much more reasonable and causal as she spoke to Adam.

Adam couldn't help but become nervous and afraid to meet the head of the Maxwell Family, and he also didn't want his master to get the wrong idea if he met with him, without his master's permission.

But in the current situation, he couldn't refuse.

"There is no need to worry, we are friends now so I will make sure you aren't harmed. But I also want you to help me with the meeting that we are having today. My grandfather sent me to scout the new Chinatown that was built and report back in the meeting with all of the high members of the Maxwell Family. You seem to be intelligent and have noticed the flaws of our family, so I am hoping you can be my advisor of sorts" reassured him Angela who was quickly adapting to their new friendship.

Adam was glad to see that she was willing to protect him and that he was being valued. He had dreaded meeting the Maxwell Family, but so far, it seemed that it wouldn't be too bad.

Angela although was quite annoying to deal with, seemed to be a person that he could reason with and was willing to go with her to the Maxwell Family meeting.

But before then, he had some conditions that he needed to be met, otherwise even though he had made her his friend, he would have to refuse.
