Su Xiao was initially puzzled but then suddenly realized that he could ask Reincarnation Paradise a high-level question, and he had gained a huge amount of resources.
He couldn’t think of what to ask for a mont.
Suddenly a flash of inspiration struck his mind, and Su Xiao knew what he wanted to ask.
"What are the numbers of those who killed my parents, and what level are they as Contractors?"
After Su Xiao asked this question, Reincarnation Paradise gave a special answer.
[This question cannot be answered.]
Su Xiao frowned tightly, could it be insufficient permissions?
"Why can’t it be answered?"
[The Hunter’s parents volunteered for death during an accidental event, with no suspicion of murder by others.]
"What!"
Su Xiao suddenly stood up, his eyes wide open.
"Accidental death? What a joke! Being stabbed to death by a weapon is voluntary accidental death?"
[Reincarnation Paradise can reconstruct the Hunter’s past, do you wish to use the consultation permissions?]
Su Xiao hesitated, now unsure of the situation.
"Use it."
Su Xiao’s tone beca resolute, things seed not as he thought.
[Checking, detected ’enemy’ in the Hunter’s thoughts.]
[Contractor No.10034 (deceased)]
[Contractor No.10187 (deceased)]
[Contractor No.11316 (deceased)]
[Contractor No.12479 (deceased)]
...
Seeing a large list, Su Xiao was even more puzzled, could these be the enemies who killed his parents? But none of these people were exceptions; all died within Reincarnation Paradise.
His enemies were already dead? Su Xiao lit a cigarette with trembling hands. Although he hadn’t killed these people, the revenge being avenged filled his heart with joy.
So say revenge leads to emptiness, but Su Xiao didn’t feel that way; he was very satisfied now.
[Comparing DNA data, the test results are as follows.]
[The Hunter has no blood relations with Contractor No.12156 (codena Bloodhawk), Contractor No.12157 (codena Poison Orchid).]
Seeing this prompt, Su Xiao’s first reaction was disbelief; the parents who raised him from childhood had no blood relation with him?
Was it a mistake by Reincarnation Paradise? Is that possible? Of course not, the capabilities of Reincarnation Paradise are evident; it is an extrely mysterious existence.
[Video projection in progress, this is the Hunter’s childhood image.]
A screen like a surveillance cara appeared in front of Su Xiao.
The screen showed a pitch-black sealed space, presumably ford by a collapsed cave; there was a young man and woman with an infant in swaddling clothes. On closer inspection, Su Xiao bore so resemblance to the dusty-faced man.
In the image, the woman held the infant in her arms, tears filling her eyes.
"Honey, can we still get out? The phone signal is gone, and it’s getting more and more stuffy; it might be airtight, and soon the oxygen will run out."
The woman pressed her cheek against the infant’s face in the swaddling.
The man sat silently in the corner; even in such misfortune, he remained calm.
"There is indeed not much oxygen. If all three of us breathe at once, we can last a maximum of two hours."
The man looked up at his wife not far away; unsmiling as he was, he smiled at his wife.
"Find a way to survive with our son."
As he spoke, the man took out a spring-assisted knife, the blade springing out, and without hesitation, the man slit his own throat. He was ruthless, extrely decisive.
If the oxygen was only enough for two adults and an infant to breathe for two hours, then what about one adult and one infant? It could last at least three to four hours!
This man was ruthless enough; to let his wife and child continue to live, he chose to end himself, knowing full well what being buried underground after a natural disaster implied—that rescue would not co in ti. Instead of clinging to life, he left more survival ti for his wife and child.
The gushing blood shocked his wife into a stupor, and after a scream, she rushed to the man.
"Live on, take our son out."
After leaving those words, the man died.
The wife cried bitterly, shouted, but nothing could bring the man back to life.
A few minutes later, the wife wiped away her tears, already heartbroken. But after glancing at the infant in the swaddling, she showed a gentle smile.
The woman picked up the infant whose face had several drops of blood on it and began to breastfeed.
After the infant was full, the woman placed the infant on the ground, covering the infant with surrounding debris to prevent being crushed by falling debris during rescue, though the chances of rescue were slim.
The woman looked at her husband, resolutely picking up the blood-stained spring knife.
She did not know when rescue would arrive, but she knew those few hours were not enough; she could only try to make her child live longer to increase the chances.
The most precious things are often the ordinary ones, such as air.
...
Su Xiao watched the scene intently; the infant miraculously survived, but due to the large-scale disaster causing chaotic records, the infant’s identity was not confird and was sent to an orphanage.
Six months later, a couple ca to the orphanage to adopt a child, and upon seeing the familiar appearance of that couple, Su Xiao was stunned; those were his ’parents.’
No, they were his adoptive father and mother.
The image continued as Su Xiao gradually grew up, and his adoptive parents never told him about the adoption.
In fact, his adoptive parents adopted him under a false identity to blend into ordinary society, seemingly avoiding soone.
His adoptive father was always kind in his presence, and his adoptive mother so gentle.
In Su Xiao’s mory, his adoptive parents never scolded him, not a word, let alone beat him; is this normal? He hadn’t noticed before, but in hindsight, this was far from normal.
The image continued; Su Xiao had already started elentary school, while his adoptive parents chatted at ho.
"It’s been many years since the adoption, that child won’t discover our identity, will he?"
"Lan, don’t overthink, that child is still very young, and we’ve been acting like parents."
"But he will grow up eventually; if he finds out our identities then..."
"You and I can’t have children; adopting that child was rely to hide among ordinary people."
"When that ti cos, there’s nothing we can do. But this child has been ruthless from an early age; if he becos a Contractor, he might beco impressive."
"Who knows, maybe his parents were ruthless people, but this child shows no signs of partial data transformation yet."
Bloodhawk sighed, seemingly worried about sothing.
...
The truth was surprising; there were no imagined powerful enemies, nor a clichéd story of becoming stronger and avenging.
A young couple faced a natural disaster while traveling, buried in what was once a tourist cave.
Though both were ordinary people, there was an innate ruthlessness and decisiveness about them, which allowed their child to survive.
Their deaths bought extra ti, and the child was rescued, then sent to an orphanage, eventually adopted by a Contractor couple to disguise their identity and avoid pursuit.
...
Su Xiao pressed a hand against his forehead, cigarette dangling from his lips, blue smoke rising into the air.
No right or wrong in this matter; though his adoptive parents’ purpose in adopting him was to conceal their identities, they nevertheless raised him to adulthood.
The Contractor team that killed his adoptive parents was already dead, so there was no real powerful enemy anymore; his killing of the black warlord before without any Contractor’s appearance was already telling.
Su Xiao was puzzled; Reincarnation Paradise had provided information that Talent Abilities couldn’t be inherited. Moreover, when both parents had Talent Abilities, the chances of the child having Talent Abilities were even smaller.
He had fully understood the issue of revenge; the heavy burden resting on his shoulders for years gradually dissipated. He had never felt so relaxed.
"Bu Bu, let’s go have a feast."
Su Xiao was not defeated by the truth but was instead born anew.
From now on, he would live alone, just for himself.
Or rather, his journey in Reincarnation Paradise was just beginning, and from now on, he would only do what he wanted to do, no longer led by revenge.
