"No problem." Lin An began to explain. "To put it simply, it's hatred. A more complicated thing is that after experiencing too much betrayal, deception, good people not being rewarded, and duplicity, I hate my human identity. I feel tired and don't want to think. But my mother's words are like a curse that clings to me. I have no choice but to agree to those people's requests. So I start to hate them. I hate those deceivers, I hate human emotions, I hate those who deprive me of happiness, I hate gentleness, I hate myself, I hate everything, and that's how I became."
Lin An's explanation was almost the same as no explanation at all. Everyone generally didn't understand, but Song Chan said with understanding, "Lin An, your second uncle told you about your father's whereabouts. Your second uncle isn't from New Adam, but he's someone who knows the inside story. He told you that your father was imprisoned by a criminal organization and is continuing to research genetic modification programs. You're very dissatisfied with your father, but that man is still your father. You still have to bring your father back for your mother and sister. You've sacrificed almost everything for your family."
"With the help of your second uncle, you traveled to the otherworld on the Thai-Myanmar border. On your first day, you saw many children with broken legs and deformities begging. You helped them and bought them food, but they stole your belongings and ID card and sold you to a slave trader. You then eliminated the slave trader. Then the small warlord behind the slave trader started trouble with you, and you killed him again. Then the big warlord behind the small warlord showed up, and you used the same tactics, repeatedly assassinating high-ranking officials within the big warlord. Within a week, all the high-ranking officials fled, and the big warlord was destroyed. You killed the big warlord again, and he stopped, and you became famous."
"You'll probably encounter more of these things later. You helped them out of kindness, but they betrayed you. When you were fighting the slave traders, you met many slaves and heard their stories. Many of them were selling themselves to slave traders out of kindness, helping their friends or the elderly, and ended up in hell. Your mother told you that as long as you treated others with kindness, happiness would come to you. But if you hadn't developed your monstrous strength in the assassin training camp, you would have been buried under a tree like the other slaves, missing organs."
"Even after that, you became famous in the mercenary world and were idolized by many people from the other world. But what happened? They treated you as a powerful tool to be exploited. On the surface, they treated you with respect, but in reality, they were using your formidable strength to complete difficult mercenary missions to make money. They secretly called you a fool. You've read too many martial arts novels, and you really think that if you have strength, you should be chivalrous. In reality, the heroes work hard in public, while the leaders of the various factions live a comfortable life in secret. They use you as a pawn."
"Also, you're too powerful. Many people think you're a monster. Even if you act like a hero now, you'll eventually realize your true nature as a monster and turn into a murderous villain. We need to eliminate you before it's too late. There are even some self-proclaimed righteous people who are planning assassinations to eliminate this future threat."
"Oh, by the way, there's one more thing. When you were 13, you were already a top-tier mercenary. Even if you didn't care about the commissions for completing missions, after completing several difficult missions, you had accumulated tens of millions of dollars. You weren't short of money, and your nutrition was up to par. Then, you had the appearance of a mercenary. Your silver-white hair covered most of your forehead, your face was handsome, and your pupils were blue-green. In one word, you could describe it as alluring. You were a handsome guy with a very neutral charm, which led to many women throwing themselves at you. I think there was once a time when you were sleeping in a hotel and someone sneaked into your room. You thought it was an assassin, but it turned out that the person was wearing bold pajamas and just wanted to sleep with you."
"You are very troubled. You have been pretending to be ordinary. Your true appearance is that of a handsome and elegant man."
"But at the same time, you're Lin An, an ordinary student who no one pays attention to at school. You suddenly have two faces, and you start to get confused. You don't know which one is the real you. Or maybe it's better to say that the ordinary student Lin An you see at school is just a disguised Lin An, and the ruthless, cold-blooded, and almost three-no Lin An in the other world is also a disguised Lin An. The real Lin An is hidden. Your unfortunate past experiences have made you a bird trapped in a cage."
"But there must have been another turning point that caused your personality to completely split, splitting into the three-no man Lin An, who was insensitive, emotionless, and expressionless, and the outer Lin An who longed to live an ordinary life. What was this turning point? Ye Ju and the others also want to know."
Song Chan looked at Lin An seriously, waiting for Lin An's answer.
Lin An was silent for a long time before he spoke: "I refuse to answer."
"Ye Ju expected this," Song Chan said. "The trigger should have been when you were 14. You knew Lin Xia didn't commit suicide because you rejected her, but because New Adam's agents were monitoring you at the time. She committed suicide to protect you. After your sister died, she was dragged to the crematorium and burned. But you knew your sister was a very smart girl. Even in desperate circumstances, she wouldn't choose suicide, which is almost a hopeless situation. You must have dug up your sister's grave and investigated her ashes. You found something wrong, so you started investigating New Adam, wanting to find your sister."
"You lived at the New Adam base in Hukland from the age of 0 to 3. You moved back home at the age of 4. Your mother died of illness at the age of 5. Your sister committed suicide at the age of 6. You were abused by your father from the ages of 7 to 9. From the age of 10 to 13, you worked as an international mercenary. At the age of 14, you began investigating New Adam around the world."
"It's unknown what exactly happened during the investigation of the New Adam. Ye Ju speculates that you should know another truth. Your mother, fulfilling her husband's wish, devoted herself to researching the New Human race. She developed a new gene adjustment sequence that could change humanity's fate. She first used it on your sister, obtained a test sample, optimized it, and then used it on you, resulting in your birth. However, your father discovered that this was a white lie from your mother. There was no new gene adjustment sequence. The New Human traits you and your sister possessed were simply innate gifts to you two. No genetic adjustments were ever made to you."
