My interracial harem of beautiful queens

Looking like a twenty-year-old, she was very attractive, and Adam was sure that her beauty was what attracted the man.

Though Adam agreed that she had an appearance that could stir men's desires, it didn't mean he approved of the way this creature behaved.

"How annoying these types are. Unable to win a girl and resorting to such disgusting measures... repulsive," he thought, wrinkling his nose in displeasure.

And then, as if sensing his thoughts, a notification appeared.

Ding!

[Task Received: Eliminate the pursuer]

[Description: It seems that Julia, the village chief's daughter, is being pursued by a stalker! Eradicate him.]

[Reward: Julia's goodwill, magical energy control technique (random)]

[Punishment: None]

"What a bloodthirsty system," Adam thought, getting up from his seat.

"Sir, where are you going?" asked Julia, clearly frightened.

"I'm getting rid of the trash. It piled up a bit, and I hadn't dared to throw it away. By the way, you can wait here; no one can enter without my permission," Adam replied without turning around.

It took him a minute to grab a sword from his room and approach the black door. The sword was something he had obtained from previous bandits, deciding to keep it for self-defense. And who would have thought that he would need it so soon?

Cleverly hiding the sword under his jacket, he adopted a sleepy look, as if preparing for sleep. Carrying a trash bag, he approached the door and suppressed his aura in advance not to scare the stalker. Pushing the door, the man heard a slight rustle – most likely, the stalker hid, sensing someone approaching.

Adam, seemingly unaware of the stalker standing very close to the trash bin, threw away the garbage and rubbed his eyes sleepily.

"Darn, this woman had to arrive so late. I was about to sleep, and here comes a brick on my head," he grumbled aloud, looking annoyed.

Adam adjusted the trash bin, which had shifted a bit from its place, and started walking toward the door. By that time, the stalker, apparently noticing an excellent chance, decided to attack Adam.

The pursuer had no weapon in hand, only bare fists, but recognizing Adam as an ordinary human, he thought it would be enough. And when, with his agility, he jumped straight at Adam, the man suddenly froze in shock.

"Cough..."

The pursuer suddenly coughed up blood and widened his eyes, looking at Adam.

"How...?"

The stalker didn't expect this. His body exploded with intense pain, as Adam's blow landed right in his stomach, but that wasn't the end. A horrifying poison spread through the stalker's body, extracting all his energy as he tried to resist it with magical energy.

Before his death from the strong poison devouring his life energy, the stalker only saw darkness, in which eyes filled with purple radiance gleamed.

That was the last thing he saw in his life.

Ding!

[Task completed!]

[Received: Julia's goodwill, magical energy control technique (random)]

[Elemental Manipulation: Elemental Manipulation is a magical energy control technique aimed at maximum efficiency. With this technique, the user can quickly and effectively utilize magic. No activation required.]

Adam looked at the lifeless body of the man on the dirty floor with an indifferent expression. Snapping his fingers, Adam extracted the poison from the man's body and absorbed it himself.

If Adam had left the poison in the stalker's corpse, there was a great chance that, during decomposition, the poison would spread throughout the village, causing many problems. Fortunately, having eaten enough, the poison was suppressed for a while.

"Ugh... what an unpleasant sensation. It's like you've vomited, and then eaten it all over again... ugh, damn, why did I even imagine that?" grumbled Adam.

Returning the poison to himself caused discomfort and, most importantly, a gag reflex. As the poison entered someone else's body, it started enhancing itself, absorbing the characteristics of the victim. That's why Adam feared his power so much.

Allowing even a single drop of poison to grow could lead to a catastrophe. Adam shook his head and sighed.

"Now, I need to get rid of the body. Although the village isn't strict about killings, I don't want to spend my time explaining everything to the guards: 'Hmm, I think I'll just throw it somewhere far away. Anyway, no one can determine the murderer.'"

Adam smiled and looked at the building located a hundred meters from the "Crystal" boutique. It was a clothing store considered a competitor to the boutique where Adam worked, so he had a certain idea.

"The employees of this store are very rude, uncultured people. Moreover, I overheard during a walk that these weirdos hired a few gnomes who used to be in a gang as their guards. And surprisingly, they are the ones who infiltrated our store," Adam thought, smirking.

That night he quickly organized everything, even creating traces of a battle. Through some manipulations, he managed to mimic the aura on the sword to match one of the gnomes. This way, they would have some fun.

Returning to the boutique, Adam noticed Julia, who looked nervous and kept glancing around.

"What's wrong?"

Adam's voice from behind startled the girl, and she quickly stood up from her seat, looking scared. But seeing that it was Adam, she sighed in relief.

"Are you okay, sir? I'm afraid my pursuer might still be there, so going outside was very dangerous..." she said, genuinely concerned.

"If you mean that stalker, the guards took care of him. I think he seemed suspicious to them," Adam replied with a smile, lying to her.

"Really? What a relief..."

Julia sighed and smiled, looking much calmer. Meanwhile, Adam approached the window and raised the curtain to check the time. It was already getting dark. He turned around and looked at Julia, asking, "Do you have someone who will take you back to the village chief's estate?"

"That..."

The girl lowered her head, looking embarrassed. Adam rolled his eyes, realizing that she couldn't even contact anyone.

"I guess I should call the guards..."

Ding!

[Task Received: Help Julia reach the village chief's estate]

[Description: Looks like the lady is in trouble! The user must help Julia get to the estate unharmed.]

[Reward: Julia's goodwill (sympathy), Bean City quest chain (3 quests), Abyss Snake Robe]

[Punishment: None]

Adam raised an eyebrow, looking surprised. Tasks were coming one after another; could this be considered something special? He glanced at Julia out of the corner of his eye, who was looking at him with hope, and sighed.

"I can't leave you in such a situation. Okay, I'll take you back, but you'll show the way, alright?" he said, looking tired.

"Yes! Thank you so much! I promise my father will reward you!" Julia said with a grateful smile.

"Yeah, yeah, now get up and let's go," Adam rolled his eyes.

The way to the village chief's estate didn't take much time, just a fifteen-minute walk. Adam and Julia strolled through the empty streets, where only knights were patrolling, who, although initially looked vigilant towards Adam, resumed their patrol after making sure everything was fine.

The village was empty, which was understandable since there weren't many reasons to stay outside late at night. The reason was simple—there were no entertainments in the village that could become a cause for nightlife activation.

The road was somewhat boring—although Julia looked energetic, she couldn't even start a conversation with Adam, apparently feeling shy around him. It seemed that after the stressful situation with the stalker, she was captivated by his beauty.

So, none of them spoke, and Adam wasn't too interested in entertaining the young lady.

And there they were, standing in front of the massive gates leading to the estate. Adam narrowed his eyes when he saw various formations that were quite powerful. Breaking through to the third level of practice would not be easy.

Two guards stood at the gates—they looked like statues due to their straight posture. However, as the light from the lanterns illuminated the appearance of the two approaching figures, they were stunned.

"Young lady!"

One of the guards shouted and ran towards her.

Upon hearing her name, Julia raised her head and furrowed her brow, sensing the approach of troubled days. She looked at Adam and sighed.

"Sir Adam, thank you for helping me. I won't forget your kindness, and tomorrow I'll send you a reward," she sincerely said and bowed.

"It's okay. I helped you not for the money," replied Adam, smiling inwardly, curious about the amount she was referring to.

"But one way or another, I'll reward you, or I won't rest! Please!" pleaded Julia.

"Fine."

The man had no choice but to agree, not wanting to linger here any longer. After bidding farewell to Julia, Adam returned to the boutique and immediately began studying his technique.

"Lord Anderson! The young lady... she's back!"

In a room resembling an office, a loud clap resounded when the door swung open, and a knight entered, bending his knee.

Before the knight, at the desk, sat a man, Anderson. He frowned and looked at the knight.

"Really? Did it take you so long to find one girl in the whole village?" he said, clearly displeased.

"..."

The knight didn't argue with Anderson, realizing he was in a bad mood. After a while, Anderson waved his hand and ordered him to bring his daughter here.

And so, five minutes later, Julia entered the room with an awkward expression. It was evident that she was prepared for a scolding.

"Oh, whom do I see? Is it my daughter?" Anderson sarcastically remarked, snorting. He angrily slammed the table, making Julia tremble and squint: "Fool! Do you know that due to recent losses, many influential people in the village have turned against me? Yet you still roam alone as if it's your backyard! Do you have a brain or not?!"

"Dad..."
