35 Betrayal I'm really angry right now. The only blood related person I know tried to kill . I used to think that he just weak minded bastard that couldn't even protect his own nephew, but now I finally see his true self. A lying piece of shit.
I confronted my aunt and managed to get her to confess. She revealed all the things my uncle had done. The reason I never received any allowance was because of his orders. It turns out my aunt wasn't the one cutting corners – he was the mastermind behind it all.
I should have realized this sooner. While my aunt was mistreating , it's my uncle who holds the money. He could have provided with an allowance if he had wanted to. My anger was misdirected, and I focused it at my aunt due to my uncle previous kindness. Of course, it doesn't excuse her for going along with him. Both of them need to be held accountable, but my primary focus now is on settling things with my uncle.
Mistreating is one thing, but attempting to kill is an entirely different level. Trying to murder for money just shows that he no longer sees as his nephew; I'm just a thorn in his side. Ironically, that sentint works both ways, as I've co to view him as a parasitic presence in my life.
Just imagining his face made my blood pressure rise. I would have punched him if he were present right now.
Now, I have to think of a plan to get rid of him. That's right, I plan to get rid of him once and for all. I can just report him to the police for attempted murder so he can spend his ti in prison. But I doubt anyone will believe . Allysa can be a witness but without hard evidence, it will only be in vain.
"Skill Store," I muttered to myself

I still need a lot of EXP to level up, but at least I've gained one domination point. Now, I need to decide which skill is the best to purchase at the mont. I've been considering getting a skill other than Quick Learning, and that's "Intuitive Complex Problem Solving."
While Quick Learning has helped grasp things faster, I now require a skill that can help navigate intricate situations and determine the best course of action. Though I have a plan in mind, I'm confident that this skill will provide with even more insights and ideas.
"Purchase"
[Intuitive Complex Problem Solving : Level 1 ]
As the skill integrated with my mind, I sensed a significant improvent in my thought process. I began to review all my actions and recognized my mistakes. One error was starting with Quick Learning as my initial purchase. Instead, I should have opted for either [ Intuitive Complex Problem Solving] or [Enhanced Cognitive Intuition], as they would have been more beneficial in my current situation.
Simultaneously, I grasped the exceptional proficiency I had developed in using my skill. My experint involving the drug addict had expanded my understanding of suggestion, and Quick Learning had facilitated this process by rapidly enhancing my comprehension.
However, there was still plenty of room for improvent.
With my thoughts sorted out, I began considering the best course of action. Since my new skill is only at level 1, it's not yet powerful enough to process every variable. So, I decided to reevaluate my original plan and see if there were any ways to improve it further. As expected, I identified nurous aspects that could be enhanced, making my plan more secure and foolproof.
"Allysa, when will my uncle be returning ho?" I asked. Calling her my aunt now felt awkward as she's basically my slave.
"Tonight, he will be back ho tonight," she answered.
"Tell the exact ti,"
"9:00 pm,"
"Alright, I still have ti to prepare" I muttered to myself.
"Does he own a gun?" I asked her.
In Korea, gun ownership is tightly regulated, but those with the ans can obtain one, especially if they're part of a shooting range club. I never bothered with my uncle life before, so I don't know much about him. For all I knew, he could have had a gun under his pillow at all tis.
"He owns a .45 caliber gun," she replied.
Damn it! I knew it. A psychotic, heartless person like him would undoubtedly own a gun. If the poison doesn't work, he'll just resort to shooting directly. It's a good thing I escaped that house, or I might be in a coffin by now.
At least I know all of this now. I wouldn't have thought of these details if I hadn't purchased that skill. The usefulness of my new skill is really showing off .
"I want you to go back ho and act normal. You need to act like you're used to and wait for further instructions," I commanded.
"Okay, Master," she replied and stood up.
"Drink a painkiller first and put on your clothes," I commanded after noticing her awkward walk. She must still be feeling the pain from our previous interaction.

As she left the room, I opened my PC and went online. The familiar interface of the online shop greeted , and I quickly began searching for the items I needed.
With my new skill, I concluded that using suggestion on my uncle was likely to fail if I didn't prepare properly. This limitation is sothing I have to work with for now.
While I know that this power will likely beco godlike in the future, at the mont, it has clear boundaries that I need to work around with my own strategy.
I'm okay with this setback, though, because it seems like the system is nudging to think on my own and not solely rely on it.
It's teaching to treat it as an assistant tool rather than the complete solution. In the long run, that'll probably be more beneficial for . After all, I don't have any plot armor to protect , so it's better to be cautious and not let overconfidence get the best of .
