"Mr. Chen, I want to know why my daughter has superpowers."
Chen Zhao had hoped that it was something else, but it seemed like he'd been overthinking.
But in the end, Amy didn't plan on beating around the bush.
She went straight to the point. Chen Zhao didn't know how to respond.
"Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"
"What do you think?" Amy stared at Chen Zhao aggressively.
Amy's sudden attack didn't give Chen Zhao a chance to dodge.
"Actually, it's not a superpower," Chen Zhao said helplessly. "Of course, it's fine if you treat it as a superpower. It's more or less the same."
"I want to know the details. Silan, Collan, and Engelite."
"Amy, first you have to know that there are ghosts and demons in this world," Chen Zhao said.
"Ghosts? I thought this was the plot of 'X-Men', but what you're saying now reminds me of the plot of 'Hell Detective'. "Ai Mi could still joke around, which meant she wasn't in a bad mood.
In fact, Ai Mi was angry because she was the last person in the family to know about it.
"Ha … Amy, you're funny."
"You think I'm joking?" Amy looked at Chen Zhao coldly.
"Is that a problem?"
"Of course. DC comics have always been dark."
"Uh …" Chen Zhao suddenly didn't know how to continue. "But reality has nothing to do with comics."
"Fine, continue," Amy said.
"There are souls and demons in this world. Of course, there are people who fight them. Spiritualists are like that. Of course, different countries have different names for them," Chen Zhao said. "Your daughter is a witch," Chen Zhao said. "It's more likely that she inherited her bloodline from you."
"Me? But I'm a normal person. "
"There's a type of person who's a hidden spiritualist. In fact, every witch is a hidden spiritualist before they awaken. The only difference is whether they awaken or not."
"You mean to say that I might be able to master magic?"
"It's a very dangerous process," Chen Zhao said. "Amy, do you remember that after you and Engelite fought last time, Silan was hospitalized in a coma? Under normal circumstances, she would've died. "
Ai Mi's heart trembled. She had no idea that the situation would be so dangerous at that time.
"I can solve most problems," Chen Zhao said, "but I can't guarantee that I can save people every time."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Chen. I shouldn't have talked to you like that." Amy suddenly felt grateful.
"That's not a problem." Chen Zhao shook his head. "Collan's bloodline comes from his father. His ancestor might be a demon or some special existence, so he inherited some of his ancestor's abilities. However, male awakenings are more common and less dangerous. Of course, what happens in movies and horror movies won't happen in reality. There's no hunting for superpowers, and there's no so-called discrimination or prejudice."
Ai Mi looked at Kelan. "Kelan, what superpowers do you have?"
"Mom, Mr. Chen said it's not a superpower."
"Cut the crap. Let me take a look."
"But …" Colin looked at Chen Zhao.
Chen Zhao had already turned his head away, ignoring Collan's doubts.
How he decides is his business, it has nothing to do with me.
"This place is too small," Colan said.
"Let's go somewhere more secluded," Chen Zhao said.
There was a secluded park nearby.
After everyone arrived at the park, Collan started to show off his abilities.
Speed. When Collan ran through the entire park at his fastest speed, Ai Mi was still shocked.
It was different from Silan's, which only used her finger to light a fire. It looked like magic.
But Collan's speed was already shocking to Ai Mi.
"Mr. Chen, what about you? What ability do you have? "
"I'm a strength-enhanced type. I'm really strong."
"How strong?"
"Really strong," Chen Zhao said. "I can lift a car."
Looking at Amy's expectant eyes, Chen Zhao wasn't sure if he should perform a performance of catching a car with his bare hands.
"Is Engelite's job dangerous?" Ai Mi asked.
"It's a bit dangerous, but I'll try my best to ensure everyone's safety. Of course, I'll also ensure the safety of the members' families."
Since he'd already said it out loud, Chen Zhao couldn't keep hiding it anymore.
Was it not dangerous to tell Ai Mi that there was no such thing?
That would be irresponsible to her family.
"Did Collan get attacked last time when he fainted?"
"No, no …" Chen Zhao hurriedly said before Collan could. "Actually, Collan had just obtained his bloodline ability. His body hasn't caught up yet, so he's malnourished."
Hearing this, Ai Mi heaved a sigh of relief.
"What does Engelite usually do for his missions?"
"Deal with supernatural incidents, such as haunted houses. Engelite or other people have to deal with them."
"What about his business trip to Norway?"
"Something like that," Chen Zhao said. "I'll try to reduce his business trips in the future."
"No, I don't want to be a hindrance to his work. I can tell that he likes his job. In that case, I'll support him."
Ai Mi's gaze was gentle after Engelite got rid of the last barrier.
After Engelite removed the last barrier, Ai Mi became more rational.
"Mom, can I join the Supernatural Organization? I want to … "
"No," Chen Zhao interrupted. "Without Engelite's permission, family members can't join," Chen Zhao said quickly. "After all, it's dangerous."
"Mr. Chen … you …"
"What?" Chen Zhao glared at Collan. I haven't even settled the score with you yet.
"Mr. Chen, is there anything wrong with Silan?"
"I need to make her understand one thing," Chen Zhao said. "This ability isn't unique, but it's best not to use it in front of normal people. As for her school problems, I'll take care of it."
"But Silan isn't a normal child."
Chen Zhao thought for a moment. "That depends on your and Engelite's choice. If you want Silan to be a normal person, then maintain the status quo. If you want her to enter the supernatural world, then start teaching her magic now. To be honest, Silan is very talented. There might not even be one in ten million people like her."
"She's that talented?" Ai Mi asked in surprise. "Even more so than Collan."
Chen Zhao glanced at Collan. "He's the lowest level. If Silan has systematic teaching and guidance, she might become one of the strongest people in the world in the future."
Of course, Chen Zhao didn't say that for sure. After all, talent was one thing, and progress was another.
