They were unsure whether he was in the secret base as Adam had much more control, knowledge and understanding of the secret base than them, but from what they could tell, he wasn't there so they went to look outside.

It didn't take them long for them to find Adam sleeping against a tree beside the lake and the clothes he was wearing before that were drenched in blood were on the side.

They had never thought of swimming in the lake, but it seemed like a nice place to relax in and also seemed clean, so they all noted down that they had a natural swimming pool near the secret base that they could use.

As they looked at Adam, he was so deeply and fast asleep and for once, he seemed vulnerable and normal.

Even when he was laughing and relaxing, his red eyes were still alert, and yet Adam seemed completely unconscious in his sleep and wasn't alerted by them using their spiritual senses to find him.

They approached him and even when they neared him, he didn't seem to react in the slightest, while Cole was anxious about how he would react to being woken up.

Cole got close to him and went to poke Adam's shoulder, but just as he made contact with Adam's body, he suddenly moved at incredible speeds that they had never seen before.

His movements were so swift and he had grabbed Cole's left arm tightly with his right arm and got up.

In that same movement, he had used the Hand Blade Skill to form a blade around his left hand that he placed against Cole's neck.

Cole and the rest of them were unable to react and barely even saw what had happened, and if Adam hadn't managed to hold himself back, he would have ended up slicing Cole's neck. 

Adam who had fallen deeply asleep acted completely on his reflexes and survival instincts that had been sharpened and honed in all sorts of dangerous environments.

Realising what had occurred, Adam released Cole and moved back before scratching his head.

"Sorry for that, it was a reflex. It seems my survival instincts were even faster than me waking up and my body must have assumed you were an enemy" apologised Adam with a wry smile.

Adam played it off as though it was a normal thing that occurred, but all of them were shocked and once again amazed by Adam.

They also couldn't help but wonder what exactly he had been through and what dangers he needed to face in order to have reflexes and survival instincts that were so fast and sharp

Cole, who was sweating greatly after nearly being accidentally killed by Adam, fell to his knees and began beginning Adam for forgiveness.

"It was all my fault just like you said and I acknowledge that and want the opportunity to make it up to you. Please just give me a second chance" he pleaded.

"Get up" ordered Adam sternly.

Cole didn't even need to think about it and reflexively followed Adam's orders as he jumped up rapidly.

None of them knew what to expect next from Adam, but what he did completely shocked them all and was the last thing they had expected after how Cole acted the day before.

Adam hugged Cole and as he did so spoke quietly into Cole's ear.

"This was blown out of proportion and next time please don't force my hand or doubt me again"

Hearing that and feeling the warmth of Adam's care and hug, Cole couldn't help but feel even more guilty for believing that Adam would kill their friends.

Cole had tears in his eyes and he promised that he would never doubt Adam gain and that he would always trust him and follow his instructions no matter what.

He then began repeatedly apologising, but that stopped after Adam slapped the back of his head

"Come on man, stop being such a pathetic wimp. I already forgot about what happened yesterday and it was merely a misunderstanding and fight between friends" 

The way Adam made trying to kill him seem normal was surprising, but Cole knew that Adam was right and that he needed to move on.

Wiping his tears, Cole regained composure and stood beside the other faction leaders.

"Now that we have sorted that out, we have more important things to worry about and this is not the time for our unity, resolve and drive to falter" stated Adam, who became serious.

Before falling asleep, Adam had thought a lot about the Blood Moon Group and it was apparent that they were no match against them in the slightest.

Adam was no longer a lone wolf and before engaging in a large scale conflict, he needed to make sure that the rest of his pact was ready and able to survive and win the battle.

Strengthening his friends that were the leaders of the faction would be his current main priority and he was planning to do so for a week before departing to look for his aunt.

That week would mostly be spent giving them tips, ideas, encouragement and sparring with them, as there was nothing else that Adam could do for them and he had already provided them with everything they could ever need to progress in the secret base.

"We have an enemy that is currently too strong for us to face and even I feel weak in comparison to them. They have committed all kinds of evil deeds and the Blood Moon Group are able to get away with all of them by hiding and controlling everything in the shadows"

Adam then went on to tell them about what they had done and how his aunt was also a victim, then Elizabeth also provided some of the things that she had been able to gather.

The other leaders had been so busy with their own units of the faction and doing all sorts of things that they didn't have time to go over the information that Elizabeth's information department was able to gather, but they were disgusted by everything they heard.
