The answer is "-ly". See explanation

Usually to transform an adjective to an adverb you add "-ly" at the end.

Examples:

quick - quick $l y$ $color(red)(ly)$

nice - nice $l y$ $color(red)(ly)$

loud - loud $l y$ $color(red)(ly)$

If an adjective already ends in "y" you have to change "y" to "i" before adding the ending:

eas $y$ $color(red)(y)$ - eas $i l y$ $color(red)(ily)$
