MMORPG: Rebirth of the Mortal Online

Chapter 207: Kanari



Adam jumped from roof to roof, not using his wings, as those weren't exactly low-key enough to stay unnoticed.

Those wings could cause quite a commotion if anyone were to see them.

After a short while, Adam stopped at the end of another building's roof, and looked around the sleeping city of the Ebonreach.

'I don't know who threw that rock, but thank you!'

This was the first time that he actually believed in a God.

While trying to resist the temptation, he tried praying for perhaps the first time ever, and it looked like his prayers got answered!

"You should stop doing that."

Adam turned around to the voice and saw a tall, like three meters tall, man sitting on top of a chimney, wearing a spiky, delinquent outfit with short, black hair.

It looked like he was a mix of a delinquent and a punk, but he was abnormally tall-three meters was a rarity for humans.

However, because of Highlander's unusual genes, it was possible to have a growth spur that extreme.

"I guess you were the one that threw the rock." Adam said, having to raise his gaze significantly to meet Highlander's eyes. "Who do I have pleasure talking to?"

Simultaneously he was thinking. 'I guess it wasn't God's doing after all.'

"You're a fellow Highlander?" The tall man said. "I recognize that accent anywhere."

"I am," Adam said. "And I guess you got the extreme version of the Highlander gene's."

"My grandfather was four meters tall; I am nothing but a midget compared to him." He said. "You can call me Kanari."

"Alright, Kanari. Why did you throw a rock at my window?" Adam asked.

"You were about to have sex with that woman." Kanari said. "For your and her safety, I had to stop it."

"For our safety, what do you mean?" Adam frowned.

"Ah, listen." Kanari scratched the back of his head. "Just trust me in this one. You don't want her to start crying. I won't report to her what you were about to do, but if you do, I must."

"Her?" Adam frowned. "Why would someone care what I do? I don't appreciate being stalked."

"Honestly, I don't want to follow you around either." Kanari said. "However, I am very loyal to her, and she wanted me to be here."

"Let's make a deal." Adam said. "Leave me alone, and I won't have any sexual relationships. What do you say?"

"Can I trust you, though?" Kanari rubbed his chin.

"I'll be honest with you." Adam leaned against the same chimney, where Kanari was sitting. "I didn't want to do anything with her. I am thankful that you saved me from that situation."

"It didn't look like it." Kanari said. "You didn't try to say no. You didn't push her away or anything."

"It's more complicated than that." Adam said. "She thinks that I like her. I must keep her thinking that."

"You hate her that much that you don't want to even touch her?" Kanari asked. "That's wild. What the hell did she do to you?"

"Something I will pay her back for." Adam said while cracking his knuckles.

"Well, she is pretty." Kanari pulled out a canteen of alcohol and handed it over to Adam. "Have a drink. This is brewed in the High Mountains of the East, and you can taste the purity in every drop."

Adam took a sip and felt a warm sensation fill his body.

"A question." Kanari looked at him. "Can you handle the temptations? After a few drinks, something might happen, especially since she seems to be wanting to seduce you."

"I was already drunk." Adam said. "I took a drink at Quest Tavern. They make ale there so strong, it knocks you off your feet after just one sip."

"Oh?" Kanari laughed. "I thought I smelled something strong on your breath."

"She most likely made her advance after recognizing that as well." Adam said. "She is the type of woman who knows how to take advantage of situations."

"The worst kind of woman." Kanari laughed and took the drink from Adam, then drank it in one gulp.

"Who is this woman you're listening to?" Adam asked. "Royal Prince, such as yourself, shouldn't be assigned to mere spy duty."

"Oh, you know how to accurately tell my strength?" Kanari chuckled. "Most impressive. I am an assassin and spy. I work for her because I owe her a great debt."

"One of the Seven Ancient Guilds?" Adam asked.

"Haha, fuck no." Kanari laughed in a drunken mess. "I suppose you would think that. They

will fight for your help when they realize your current strength..."

"I'll be going to take my promotion test in a couple of weeks. I guess they will approach me."

Adam scoffed.

Then he remembered something and asked Kanari.

"Did you spy me in the Eldertree Institute, as well?" Adam asked. "After a fight I had there, someone left behind a flask for me that healed some of my injuries.

"That must be my colleague." Kanari said. "After that, he stopped following you around. This is my first day spying on you."

"Hmm," Adam looked at him and asked again. "So, can you stop following me around? I like my privacy, y'see."

"Fine by me." Kanari said and let out a powerful yawn. "I'll find someone else to spy on."

"I appreciate it." Adam stretched his arms and started walking away on the roof. "I'll need to return before others start to worry."

Kanari watched as he jumped from this roof to another, slowly disappearing from sight.

Kanari jumped off the chimney, and despite his tall body, he managed to cross the roofs like it was nothing.

At that moment, his face started to turn into the face of a horse, then hooves sprouted from his hands and feet, then he went into four legs, white fur slowly covering his entire body.

After the majestic transformation, he'd turned into a beautiful white horse with a flowing mane and powerful muscles.

He was bigger, stronger, and longer than any horse could be.

With a powerful neigh, two white wings sprouted from his back, and he took off into the sky, soaring gracefully towards the clouds.

...

Through the broken window, Adam returned to his room and turned his gaze to his bed.

He immediately wanted to lie down and sleep, exhausted from the day's events.

"Oh, you're back." Knoxx waved his hand from the door and entered the room. "I heard

something happen."

"Oh, Knoxx, yeah." Adam looked at the broken window. "Some kid broke the window. I found

him, and made his parents discipline him properly."Nôv(el)B\\jnn

"Oh, I see." Knoxx nodded and then showed a sly smile. "I heard Amelia was here. What were

you two lovebirds doing~"

"Lovebirds, what?" Adam frowned.

"It's obvious that you two are dating." Knoxx said. "You guys aren't?"

"No, we definitely aren't." Adam sat down on his bed.

"Oh." Knoxx scratched his chin. "A few new recruits are crushing on her bad. I told them to give up on it because I thought you two were a thing, but I guess I was wrong." "Yeah, you're wrong." Adam laid on the bed. "I am sorry, but it's been an exhausting day. I

want to sleep."

"Alright." Knoxx pointed at the window. "I was here to tell you that they will fix that broken window tomorrow. Try to survive through the cold wind for tonight, aight?"

Adam nodded, and then Knoxx left, closing the door behind him.

"Mm..." With an inaudible murmur, his eyes closed shut, and he entered the dreamland of

deep sleep.
