INFINITE MONEY - I Will Buy Everything

William shook his head, "No… Never actually. That's why I was thinking of making you the lab ra- first person to ever try it out."

"I wanna see if it really works or not."

Adam nodded, "Yeah. But I don't think I will be injured by it."

"Why?"

"I'm at a high level. And there aren't many things out there that could hurt me… there are things that could cut me down in one strike but those are too far away and I don't think a simple identification skill will be able to stop me… no offence, just stating the truth." Adam said.

"It's okay," William said, "I don't really have high hopes of it being too powerful at that particular place, I just want to see if it will actually be able to do anything or not."

"Then it's alright then." Adam stepped back a bit, "So how do I do this?"

"Do what?"

"Get it to activate its defense mechanism."

"Oh! I don't really know that." William said as he scratched the back of his head, "Why not just swing it a bit and see if anything happens."

Adam nodded and struck the spear a few times but nothing happened so he even used different spear strikes but that too wielded no results.

Seeing that William frowned as he specifically chose a skill so that any thief trying to get his spear would be struck down and be taught a lesson but now he was wondering whether the skill really worked or not.

"How long ago, did your grandfather get this?"

"I… don't really know."

"Maybe it just became obsolete in the storage ring and that's why it's not working." Adam said.

"Yeah..." William also said and had a thought, "Try using it one me."

"What?"

"Yeah, let's see if that works or not."

"Well… sure why not." Adam said as he threw his sword to William, "But just in case it doesn't work, use my sword to stop my attack. There's no reason to get hurt over a lost experiment."

William took the sword and readied himself for the strike. Adam too got ready as he took the spear and instead of going for a quick attack, he went for a long one by attacking William over the head.

He lifted the spear and just when he had intentions of attacking William, the spear suddenly glowed with crimson light and lightning suddenly started to move around it.

Still Adam didn't stop as he went for the attack but before he could even have struck it down, Adam was immediately struck with that same crimson lightning from the spear as he screamed out loud.

BIZZZ!

"Ahhhhhh!"

The lightning was there for a while before it stopped as Adam too stopped completely.

William saw the whole thing and saw the lightning hit Adam just when he was about to hit him and it hit fast… much faster than Adam could move. The attack too was quite big from the looks of how much it lit up and how hard Adam had screamed.

William didn't look at Adam who was still there like a statue but looked at the spear in his hands which was still glowing and had that crimson lightning revolving around it. His eyes were glued to it as he looked at the spear with stars in his eyes.

"So it worked." He said softly.

"How did you feel Adam?"

"…"

"Was it too painful?"

"…"

"Adam?"

"…"

William finally looked at Adam who was still there like a statue, not moving an inch and called him out again, "Hey! Adam. You okay?" But Adam not moved nor responded at all, still remaining like a statue.

So he went forward and touched him but that only caused Adam to fall back on the floor with a 'Thud'.

"ADAM!"

"HEY! Adam"

"Adam wake up."

No matter how many times William called him, Adam didn't wake up nor gave any indication to. William looking at still face of his had started worrying now, he wondered whether he was still alive or had kicked the bucket.

Then he went close to his mouth and put his ear forward. It was shallow, yes, but there was some breathing. William sighed as he felt life coming back to him. Adam was still alive but his breathing was so low that it didn't feel like he was actually breathing.

William quickly pulled out his glass like holographic phone and dialed a number, "IMMEDIATELY GET SOME MEDIC!"

"Where is the incident?"

"Inside the training room."

"… IS THE BOSS HURT?"

"No, I'm fine. It's Adam… he's gone cold."

[ Prior to being struck by lightning ]

(Adam POV)

Adam moved the spear around and tried to gauze something out of it but nothing happened as it felt like it was just a normal spear. But when he moved it around Adam was able to feel the fluidity of the spear and instantly knew that it was anything but ordinary.

Then William told him to use it on him, which made Adam question something but finally he nodded and got ready to strike William. But thought better as he gave his sword to William and they got readied.

As Adam thought of striking William, he could feel some buzz on his hands and saw the crimson light from the spear but that didn't stop him as he went further on and went to strike William. But suddenly as he moved his hands, his whole body was suddenly struck a big shock and before he could fully register what happened, lights went out.

He suddenly fell into what seemed like a pool of darkness. He felt cold… very cold, alone and unsafe. He only felt like that before when he was younger and weaker. The time when he went to train with his father on a mountain and then lost his father. As night came, it showed him the true horrors of the cold.

In that darkness, however he felt someone calling out to him. But he couldn't hear nor understand what it was saying. Whether it was calling him out or was it shunning him?

If felt like shunning as most have done that to him… he still remembered the time from the clan, as he was being shunned for the thing he had done and that he was excommunicated because of it.

It was harmless and he was a prodigy which would have made it perfect for him but… he was of an outer clan and that was not something he who had been given a chance in the inner clan grounds could do… he had to learn that the hard way.

The cold that was closing on to him, felt slowly washing away as warmth enveloped him and he felt his consciousness coming back to him as he opened his eyes.

The first thing he saw was a guy in doctor's uniform checking him out as he said, "Yeah, I think he will be fine now." He saw him talking to a person that sat next to him, the kid.

"So… how does it feel to get shocked by heaven's judgement."
