"Anyway, the reason why I couldn’t awaken any superpower was because my body was too weak.
My superpower was an SSS-Rank-type superpower. To awaken it, I needed SSS-Rank body type.
I started to train and strengthen my body, but still, I couldn’t awaken any superpower. Just when I was desperate, Aunt Mila approached ," Qiao Jun continued, his voice low and strained.
"She told about her son—how much he had suffered despite being gifted with such powerful abilities, and how his death shattered her world.
She said she didn’t want to see another young life wasted. At the ti, I believed she genuinely cared about helping ."
Qiao Jun paused, taking a deep breath as if the mory still pained him.
"But that wasn’t the full story. She saw as a replacent for her son.
All the similarities between us—our age, height, the fact that I had a dormant superpower—made her obsessed with the idea of making into what her son could have been."
Yu Holea’s heart sank as she listened.
"So she wanted to shape you into the image of her lost son?"
"Hm. She used her son’s blood to nourish . She would use a blood ritual
"She used her son’s blood to nourish ," Qiao Jun continued, his voice growing more somber.
"A blood ritual... It wasn’t sothing I understood at first, but it beca clear as ti went on.
Aunt Mila believed that by using her son’s blood, she could sohow transfer his power and essence into ."
Yu Holea’s eyes widened in horror.
"That’s insane!"
"It is," Qiao Jun agreed, his expression tightening with pain.
"But she was desperate. After losing her son, she was willing to do anything to bring back a part of him.
And I was the perfect vessel. She believed that, with her son’s blood running through , I could awaken my superpower and beco an extension of him."
Yu Holea’s mind raced, piecing together the dark puzzle.
"So... she used you, not just as a replacent, but as a way to revive him?"
Qiao Jun nodded.
"Exactly. She thought that if I awakened a powerful ability, it would an her son’s legacy was living on in .
The blood ritual wasn’t just about helping gain strength—it was about turning into her son’s reincarnation."
Yu Holea’s chest tightened.
"But what about your own superpower? Didn’t you have your own abilities?"
"I did, but they were dormant," Qiao Jun explained.
"I had the potential for an SSS-Rank ability, but my body wasn’t strong enough to handle it. Aunt Mila’s rituals were ant to strengthen , but they also bound to her will.
That’s why her hypnotism worked so well—her blood rituals had created a connection between us. She could manipulate without even realizing it.
Later I did awaken the superpower, but it was during one of the blood rituals. I never thought that the blood ritual was actually conducted using so dark forces.
When the dark forces of whom my Aunt was taking help realized my superpower was powerful, it tried to take under its control.
But I resisted and with my Aunt’s help, I defeated the force. But a part of the dark force was left in my body.
A dark energy that would try to take control of ti and ti again. Whenever the darker energy took over , I acted completely different from my usual self.
It was like possession. Sotis, the dark energy would intensify the negative emotion in resulting in harming my loved ones.
The only thod that I could co up with was to keep a distance from my family. At first, I was in pain, but gradually I stopped visiting them and built my own world far away from them.
At the age of 15, I had everything that I wished for. A successful company of my own, fa, wealth, health, and an amazing talent in superpower.
When I felt I could fight off the dark energy, I started to contact my family again. But still, I maintained a distance between myself and my family.
I was afraid. Afraid that one day I won’t be able to control the inner dark energy. My father thought I was frivolous.
Even when I completed my education early, my father felt I was an unfilial son because I used to stay away from him and the family.
My sister needed my protection at that ti but I was too busy protecting them in silence, that I didn’t dare to step forward.
My mother used to worry about , while I...like a coward hid from her. My big brother was going through heartbreak, but I didn’t return.
I was selfish Lea. I was selfish at that ti, thinking I would harm them if I got any closer to them.
Then Aunt Mila ca back to my life when I was about to turn 16. She proposed to , that as long as I could fulfill one of her wishes, she would leave alone.
She wanted to live as her son for one year and I agreed. It was to repay her. For her help and for her sacrifice.
I helped them in business and looked after them like her son. Humans are strange. I hated them, but, after living with her for 1 year...I stopped resenting her.
Slowly I understood her, but I couldn’t bring myself to like her. So I transferred all of my affection to Vivian.
I also built a charity in my dead cousin’s na, making his na popular throughout Europe. Many give him blessing and I hoped that my move could help him find peace.
After one year, I left her house and she never appeared in front of again. I thought the Chapter was closed. Forever.
Thrilled I started to find ways to overco the dark energy remnants in and that was when I found out about Death Plane.
In Death Plane, I fought, and with difficulty, I slowly controlled the dark energy. All of my problems were over and I thought I could live my life.
However, that was my dumbness. Aunt Mila returned after 3 years and though I was more powerful than her...I couldn’t resist her hypnotism, since in a way...I beca related to her.
I even tried to reverse the blood connection between us but I couldn’t do anything in the end. This ti when she planted the hypnotism in my mind, I subconsciously rembered it.
The result is, even if I don’t want to say all those words, with my Aunt Mila’s single snap, I would be under her control and do as she says."
Yu Holea gritted her teeth and asked,
"So? Did you just accept your fate? You wanted to push away and then what? Fight her? How?
If you think that breaking off the engagent and keeping away from this matter could solve everything...then I won’t stop you. Go ahead. The engagent will be called off."
Qiao Jun panicked and held Yu Holea’s hand,
"No! No! You are misunderstanding . I never planned to truly call off the engagent, I just...wanted to confirm sothing."
Yu Holea remained silent.
"I...I wanted to know what my Aunt was actually planning. Why does she want to keep you away from ? It’s very strange.
Shouldn’t she beco close to you, so that she could et more? But...even after knowing that the day I recover my mory I would hate her, she continued to target you.
This...is not like her usual self at all. I wanted to know what was going on in her mind and started to play cards according to what she directed to ."
"Explain properly." Yu Holea frowned. Though she got to know why Aunt Mila’s hypnotism worked so well on Qiao Jun and how Qiao Jun might continue to hurt her if they stayed together, she wanted to know what theory Qiao Jun had co up with.
"Today my Aunt invited and had dinner with . By then I had recovered my mory. And I threatened to report her to the Special Force if she continued to control.
Maybe my threat had provoked her or maybe she was truly impatient, because the next mont she activated the hidden hypnotism in my mind.
Her superpower allows her to leave so hypnotism imprints in my mind. You can think of hypnotism imprints as a list of to-do things, that I am compelled to do.
The first task was to break off the engagent and I resisted, but my body subconsciously followed the command.
By the ti I was conscious, I found myself at the dinner table of the restaurant of the hotel you were staying in.
The reason why didn’t see any type of hypnotism on , was because it wasn’t activated. But the mont I tried to resist it, it would have been activated.
After you left the second step of the list was activated." Qiao Jun said with a grim expression.
Yu Holea had an ominous feeling in her heart.
