Jannet knew that her son had killed and had seen her son disappear and reappear behind Angela, so any doubt that she had in her mind about the existence of cultivation had all disappeared.

With that in mind and with her having just been tricked and kidnapped, her mind and mentality instantly changed to one that was cold. It was one that was untrusting and knew that there was more to the world than money and fame.

True Power.

Something that she previously thought wouldn't be something that she would want or would attract her, but it is said that any human that had seen or heard of cultivation, and was capable of cultivating, would attempt to pursue in any way.

However, she didn't want to ask Adam about it and at that moment, all she wanted to see was the man that tricked and kidnapped her die a painful death.

Adam sensed the change in his aunt, but thought that it was merely her feeling hate for a short while, which was understandable, and assumed that she would return to normal after she calmed down.

Jannet had always been a kindhearted woman and would never have expected that she would ask the boy that she raised to kill somebody for her as she watched, but fate is unpredictable.

Walking towards the 5 men, Adam didn't think much about his aunt watching as he had wanted to ease her into everything that he was involved in and was doing anyway.

He didn't want to have to lie to her, so the sooner she accepted cultivation and the cruel Underground World Of Cultivation, the less he had to lie about and hide from her.

Withdrawing a dagger from his inventory, which amazed his aunt and the 5 men who were trying to get away from the monster that was approaching them, Adam released his killing intent and aimed it at them.

His aunt wasn't feeling the effects of the killing intent as Adam wasn't aiming it at her, but he couldn't completely hide it from her and she felt a strong wave of death and bloodlust.

Instead of being frightened by it, she was amazed and enthralled by it as she followed after Adam, wanting to get a closer view of everything that was going to happen.

Sensing his aunt following after him, Adam was starting to become worried about her as she was acting very unusual and seemed as though she wanted to kill them herself.

Despite games, movies and stories making it seem as though killing was something easy, it was a heavy burden and would weigh down on most people's souls.

Adam had learnt how to deal with it and had the assistance of his Bloodlust Characteristic that made him desire it and his Hunter's mind that made him level headed when activated.

There were twisted and evil individuals that not only weren't affected by killing somebody but enjoyed it and did it for fun, however, they were few and needed to be put down.

Retracting his killing intent and placing the dagger that he withdrew, back into the inventory, Adam turned to his aunt.

"We are leaving" he stated as he dragged her to the motorcycle.

"What about them? We should kill them" said his aunt who was becoming blinded and consumed by hate and the desire to get her revenge.

"Are you hearing yourself? Snap out of it and don't get ahead of yourself. Having power and being able to kill, doesn't mean you should kill and you can't handle the burden of taking someone's life" shouted Adam who couldn't help but become angry with his aunt.

It was the first time in his life that he had raised his voice at her and she didn't know how to react as she realised how crazy and wrong her words and desires were.

"I'm sorry son, I am just angry. We should leave" mumbled his aunt as she lowered her head and got onto the motorcycle.

However, despite the shame that Jannet felt, she also, deep down, felt disappointed that Adam had decided not to kill them.

"I am also sorry for shouting and after you get some rest, you should be fine" apologised Adam as he sat in front of his aunt and started the motorcycle.

He had already changed it back to its ordinary form and trusted that Chase and Elizabeth could handle everything and get along, so he also wanted to go to his apartment and rest.

Adam had never expected that his aunt could hold such hate and even have killing intent. It seemed as though his attempt to ease her into accepting the truth about the cruel world had backfired and he could see that his aunt had changed massively.

Once one peered into the world of cultivation, it was very hard to look away and Jannet had managed to do so previously, but after seeing it herself, couldn't help but stare.

He didn't know what to do and was unsure how he could help her and ease the pain and desires that she was feeling, but one thing that Adam was sure about was that he wasn't going to abandon his aunt.

They rode silently back towards the centre of Brooklyn, and after most of the ride, his aunt finally spoke.

"I don't know what overcame me. Son, you are right and I am glad that you stopped yourself and stopped me from seeing that" confessed Jannet who seemed to be speaking honestly.

What she said was what she truly felt, but deep down, despite knowing that it was wrong, she felt as though she didn't care. After all the hardship she experienced, it was as though the entire world was against her, so why couldn't she fight back against the world.

"It's fine aunt, just hold on tight and we can talk when we get home" reassured her Adam who although believing her words, still wasn't convinced.

Adam had learnt to trust his instincts and they were screaming at him that something bad was going to happen.
