Chapter 47: 10 Million Mana-Powered Greed
Chapter 47: 10 Million Mana-Powered Greed
After scanning his I.D, the door instantly opened, revealing a 27 m room with only a small camping tent inside.
The room was plain, with no appliances nor rooms in it. It was also white-colored and seemingly devoid of life as it was nearly empty.
Though that's the case, Adam was not disappointed at all, in fact, his expression turned delighted, with eyes flickering from excitement as he saw the room, specifically the camping tent inside.
As he was lost in his thought, a voice from the escort resounded again.
"This is your room sir, as you can see, there are no rooms nor appliances on it.", paused the escort as he walked towards the left side of the room where a scanner-like thing was embedded on the wall.
"Through this scanner, you can expand or design the room as you wish, the maximum room adjustment is 8,000 m. The rooms can be designed and created but the appliances cannot. But don't worry as we offer appliances which are included in the 100 million gold that you paid. You only have to give us a list of the appliances or utensils that you desire.", the male escort paused again as he started walking towards the camping tent in the center of the room...
Adam on the other hand turned excited again as he saw the camping tent that was the same as a normal camping tent on Earth...
A while later, the male escort spoke again...
"As for this tent, it is an A-grade item which contained a 1,000 m space inside. But that's not the only feature it has, cause in our Grand Hyatt Hotel, we offer a space that was inscribed with a variety of runes on it, thus, giving a better and satisfying training area for our client.", the male escort added while thumping his chest out
Of course, Adam knew this beforehand, as it was his sole reason for renting this apartment which cost a whopping 100 million gold a day.
The tent boasted a training space that was inscribed with enhanced concentration runes, time deceleration runes, and so on, which boosted the concentration of the Chosen during training and slowing down time, respectively.
And in this 10th floor, or the Royal Suites of this Grand Hyatt Hotel, the time deceleration is in the ratio of 3:1, where the latter (or 1) was the time on World of Luck.
In other words, one day here in World of Luck is 3 days inside the camping tent.
Considering this, Adam thought that 100 million gold a day was indeed worth the pay as he could practice efficiently.
Soon, after explaining the other features of the room, the male escort then left as he finished his task, thus leaving Adam alone in the room...
Adam then went towards the scanner on the wall, immediately scanning his I.D while thinking of the room adjustment that he desires.
A while later, the one plain room earlier, instantly changed into an area with three rooms and items on it.
After calling the staff for his desires items and appliances, they immediately assembled them inside Adam's room.
After an hour, the room is now polished...
As Adam doesn't plan to live in this place anyway, and just practice most of the time, he created the area that only has 3 rooms on it. The first room is the kitchen, which is simple and only of 8 m volume.
Second is the bathroom that is 8 m volume too. And lastly, the third room which is the bedroom.
Though it is a bedroom, there's no bed inside of it, but rather contains a cabinet and a tent.
As it was 8:00 in the evening already and Adam felt tired from his hunt earlier, he immediately went inside the tent, not to practice, but rather to take a sleep.
As soon as he entered the tent, the scene of a room with a cabinet earlier now turned into a white and plain 1,000 m room.
The wall of the room was inscribed with unknown words on it, which Adam thought were runes.
A while later, Adam then took a bed out of his storage ring, then slept inside the room peacefully.
Since the time inside the room was 3 times slower than outside, Adam planned to sleep here to utilize time properly.
The night then passed with Adam sleeping peacefully inside the tent on the 10th floor of Grand Hyatt Hotel...
------
After nine hours of sleeping inside the tent... (3 hours in World of Luck)...
Adam instantly freshened up himself, then stood on the center of the 1,000 m space, looking at nowhere seriously.
A while later, he then uttered a word...
"Greed!"
After saying the word, a bulky man appeared out of nowhere and knelt before Adam.
The latter then spoke again, causing the former to stood up directly.
Adam then started inserting mana on Greed...
'10'
'100'
'10,000'
'100,000'
'500,000'
'1,000,000'
As Adam reached 1 million mana supplied on Greed, he then took a deep breath before continuing...
'1,111,111'
'1,309,099'
'1,509,090'
'1,800,999'
'2,000,000'
'2,500,999'
'2,800,000'
'3,000,000'
When Adam supplied 3 million mana, he instantly halted as he had to conserve his remaining mana for his practice later...
The latter on the other hand, just stood there, while maintaining his expressionless look, as he felt the uprise on his power.
"This...Master...Power...", Greed uttered
Adam then let out a sigh of relief, then asked Greed.
"What do you think about your power now? Do you think its enough to go unnoticed by other Chosen or people?", Adam asked while looking at Greed intimately, hoping for a positive response
But alas, unlike what he expected, Greed replied unfavorably...
"No... B-Grade... A-Grade...level 500+... Notice me", Greed uttered
Of course, Adam planned to permanently summon Greed now as for a sole reason...
He was afraid of losing his SSS-grade item, 'Robe of Supremacy' as it meant losing Greed and the Robe's enormous effects.
Earlier, in his fight on the Feral Ogre hunting ground. After killing the Chosen on the area and receiving the item dropped from them, Adam felt nervous at the thought of possibly dropping the SSS-grade item.
Of course, that would only happen once he died which he thought was unlikely, but it won't hurt to have some precaution right? Besides, the loss was indeed massive and was not worth the risk.
Thus, he planned to permanently summon Greed, to serve as his secret card in case of emergency...
Also, having Greed near him gave him a sense of security and he thought that it would be good for Greed to see the outside world...
Additionally, he also planned to continuously insert mana on Greed, since the mana inserted resets only once the summoning was canceled, and since he didn't plan to cancel the summon anyway, he then planned to insert mana on Greed and let it stockpile.
But there's a flaw behind that, which is the possibility of being detected by other Chosen. Since Greed is a summoning, the aura he is releasing is kinda inhuman and could be detected by higher-level Chosen.
Thus, Adam first tested whether Greed could hide his aura once inserted with a considerable amount of mana.
But alas, a 3 million mana inserted seem lacking, and since he had only a total of 4 million+ mana currently, he planned to just insert more mana on the next day as he needed the remaining mana for his upcoming training.
A while later, he then summoned his coin, divided it into four then inserted mana on it.
The first coin transformed into Dark Wolf (rare), the second coin into Inferior Praying Mantis (rare), the third coin that was just levitating beside Adam, and lastly, the last coin which transformed into One-Fang Venomous Viper (rare), which he duplicated recently.
Soon, he started his training which focuses on enhancing his concentration and mastery of the skill.
Presently, Adam can only divide the coin into five as the coin moves through thought, thus needing more concentration and focus as he has to move the coin simultaneously.
Therefore, it had been part of his plan to train in this apartment, which was inscribed with enhanced concentration runes to assist him in his training.
"Fight!", shouted Adam as he started commanding his duplicated monster while battling a 3 million mana-powered Greed, who adjusted his strength for a favorable fight.
-------
Soon, 4 days had passed...
Inside the tent of a certain room on the 10th floor of Grand Hyatt Hotel, Adam can be seen looking at Greed with eyes full of amazement.
As for the reason? It's because he finally reached his desired outcome.
'10 million mana! Finally!'
During the 4 days of constant insertion of mana on Greed, Adam finally reached a 10 million mana supplied! This excitement was then fired up as he heard words from Greed...
"This power... A-grade chosen... Level 700 and below... Notice me..not", Greed replied stuttered
Of course, during those 4 days, Adam had to replenish his mana thus limiting his mana insertion rate...
A while later, he then asked Greed to try hiding his aura...
The latter then just stood there then took a deep breath.
'Wooshhh'
Sounds of seemingly an air was heard inside the tent as Adam felt the air or rather aura from Greed, being continuously sucked inside the latter.
Minutes later, the sound finally receded, revealing a Greed that was standing there composedly, not revealing even a slightest of monster aura, nor human aura.
'Greed!'
Adam was fascinated by this change as now, he could explore the outside and do quest with Greed with no discomfort.
Soon, he then turned his focus on his status window, particularly Unique skill's status.
[ Cooldown time: 2 hours ]
'2 more hours to go huh', Adam thought excitedly as he could now draw his next starter pack's roulette ticket...
'I wonder what item will I get?!'

Finally!!!!!
We're done with volume 1, next volume..
