"I want two things in exchange for my help. I am sure this request involved unforeseen dangers and it will also declare me as an enemy to the Blood Moon Group, so what I want in return must match all the risk and additional effects of aiding you,"
Adam wasn't shy when it came to negotiations, while he could also see that as long as Nathaniel was amused and interested in him, he would be lenient and friendly towards him.
"I will do my best to help provide you with those two things as long as they are within my power and I deem them to be equal in value to my request,"
"First off, I want you to guarantee that my faction will be protected and allowed to expand and develop freely. As long as it is within this country, you must make sure that you will not get in the way of my faction and also not support its opposition, rivals or targets,"
"I can assure you that the US Cultivator Defence will give your faction completely freedom and can also publically affiliate with it. However, I will not stick my neck out to protect it and if the faction has any enemies, it is not my problem. The only time I may aid the faction's defence is when it involves international conflict."
Adam was happy with that as he wasn't expecting him to completely protect that faction and that would hinder the faction's growth, anyway.
As long as his faction had the space and freedom to develop and grow within the country, Adam was confident that his friends and the faction would become more powerful at rapid rates.
"Secondly, I would like you to gather all information and records of Jannet Green's movements worldwide and I need you to find out where she is,"
Adam knew that finding Jannet alone would be difficult, while Nathaniel was likely to have the right connections and capability to be able to do so.
He was expecting Nathaniel to be surprised, since if he did a background check on him, he would have found that she had been assumed to be dead during an accident in their building.
However, he wasn't shocked at all and what he did next shocked Adam even more.
He made a folder appear within his hand out of thin air and said, "I thought you would ask for that, so I already prepared it for you".
From that, Adam gauged two things.
They must have been watching him from long ago and that all of them had Storage Treasures and unknown items that make them unpredictable and difficult to battle against.
Even if they were keeping tabs on him, it would have been impossible for them to know that his aunt was still alive unless they had a witness account of what had occurred, or had managed to track her after that incident.
Adam was even more suspicious of Nathaniel as the only people that Adam was sure were keeping tabs on him at that time were the Blood Moon Group, while the government shouldn't have recognised him as a threat yet.
He stayed calm and didn't display what he was thinking and feeling as he took the folder from Nathaniel's hand and didn't bring up any of his suspicions.
Despite trying to stay calm and his facial expression staying the same, his eyes lit up as soon as the folder appeared in his hand.
"What kind of guy wouldn't know information about the person they were planning on cooperating with?"
There was definitely more to Nathaniel than what met the eye and Adam couldn't tell his intentions or whether he was a trustworthy individual, but he decided to feign ignorance.
At that moment, there was nothing he could do to Nathaniel, but he was planning on looking into it more and being wary of him until he had more definitive information about him.
[Ava, can you gauge anything about him for me?]
{Sorry Adam, the system is limiting what I can do for you and this is something outside of the system's control}
Adam was expecting such an answer, but asked just in case there was a chance of finding out anything.
"You are willing to give me what I want before I completed my end of the deal?"
"You have nowhere to run, while the faction you care about and founded cannot hide from me. And I trust you anyway and know you hate the Blood Moon Group just as much as me,"
He made it seem as though he was trusting Adam and as though they had aligning goals, however; he was clearly threatening to destroy the faction, while he was also asserting his dominance over Adam.
Adam smiled as he heard that and didn't let it get to him, knowing that what he said was exactly true.
He was in Nathaniel's hands and could only cooperate and hope for the best, but he wasn't planning on sitting idly and once he was strong enough, wouldn't allow anyone to restrict him.
"You are quite an interesting individual," said Adam as he leant back in the chair that he sat in.
"I can say the same for you,"
With the folder in his hands, Adam couldn't help but eagerly begin reading its contents and was surprised by what it contained.
It recorded all the known movements of his aunt from the day of that incident and Adam was shocked by everything he read.
Most of her movements and activities were even unknown to the US Cultivator Defence, but one thing was clear, she wasn't being discrete and did as she pleased.
Her goal was unclear, but everywhere she went, death followed.
Adam didn't react to what he saw as his aunt was the victim, with her body being controlled by an Evil Soul, but if she did all those things and couldn't be salvaged, Adam didn't know what he would do.
His mind was telling him that she needed to be put down, but his heart felt the opposite way.
Adam didn't know how he would feel when faced with her and how much of his aunt was left, but if there was a way to get her back, he would save her at any cost.
