Ralph hid himself. He didn't fully trust Ron. Only when he saw that Ron didn't bring anyone back and actually brought food did Ralph believe him. "Here." "Thank you." Ralph devoured the food in big bites. He ate the pancakes, washing them down with rainwater. After eating until he was half full, Ralph regained some strength. "Ralph, can I ask you what that was just now?" Ralph was silent for a moment. "Ron, you're a good person. If possible, I really wish you hadn't seen what happened just now. I really don't want to hurt you. Let me ask you again, can I trust you?" Ralph looked into Ron's eyes. "I can promise," Ron said. Ralph seemed to confirm something in his own way. "Alright, I trust you." "I've become a monster. No, to be precise, my right hand has become a monster." Ralph raised his right hand. The next moment, his right hand changed shape. An eyeball appeared on it, along with a mouth. "Hello, Ron. I'm Kaba." Ron raised an eyebrow. Earlier, Ron had only vaguely seen the changes in Ralph's right hand. Now, seeing it up close, Ron couldn't help but think of something. A Parasyte! (t/n: It was an anime, it's good) Ralph's situation was extremely similar to that of a Parasyte. "That day, when Mother was leaving, I chased after her but couldn't catch up. When I was going downhill, I fell." "It hurt a lot." "My head hit a rock." "I bled a lot." "Mother looked back at me but didn't return." "I fell into a coma." "After a long, long time, I finally woke up." "When I woke up, I found that Kaba was already inside my body." "At that time, he was fighting me for control of my body." "If he won, I might have become a complete monster." "But I thought of Lilith, thought of Haji and Hassan." "Suddenly, it was as if a power appeared within my body." "I regained control of my body." "But not completely." "My right hand was occupied by Kaba." "We reached a compromise." "Two people living in one body." "During that time, I was very afraid. I was afraid that others would see that I had become a monster." "I suppressed Kaba's power." "Even if I was bullied, it didn't matter." "I couldn't let others find out I was a monster." "Because I have to raise Lilith and the others. I am their brother; it's my responsibility." "Before, Mother was working hard." "But Mother left." "I don't blame her." "I know she had a hard time." "A woman trying to raise four little kids is too exhausting." "Really too exhausting. I saw her break down several times." "I hope she can live better after leaving us." "Ron, thank you. Thank you for the pancakes you gave Lilith." "If it weren't for those pancakes, Haji and the others might have starved to death." "You're a good person." "If you need any help, feel free to ask." "For you, I can use Kaba's power, as long as it's hidden enough and not seen by others." "However, there are some very dangerous existences in this city." "Kaba said that they are his kind." "But the relationship among their kind is not harmonious; they hunt each other." "And Kaba only merged with my right hand; he's very weak." "No matter who it is, Kaba would be no match for them." "Once discovered by them, we're doomed." "We must not get too close to them." Ralph confirmed in his own way that Ron could be trusted. But he also tempted Ron with some benefits. And emphasized the dangers of this city. Reducing the possibility of Ron revealing this secret. Ron analyzed the information Ralph revealed. There's a very high probability that it's true. In this way, the method to solve the mutated monsters in Holuen City seems to have appeared. The mutated monster has split into countless parts. These parts merge with humans to become new monsters. Due to their special existence form, using Gyo and En cannot detect or sense them. They restrain Nen users. However, between monsters, they have a special perception. As long as they get close, they can sense each other. And these monsters are in a predatory relationship. "This mutated monster has divided itself into many parts, and then let these parts hunt each other. After combining, they will become stronger." "But the original consciousness may also return." "The new consciousness born from these dispersed parts will become a stepping stone for it." "But what if these mutated monsters never get the chance to recombine?" "These newly born consciousnesses will, by instinct, devour each other." "But if they are eliminated sufficiently, no matter how they combine, they won't be complete." "These parts will become new individuals." Ron looked at Ralph. "Moreover, I can use Ralph's—no, Kaba's ability to find other monsters in Holuen City." "Kill them." "Ensure Kaba survives. Kaba should agree." "Kaba can reach a compromise with Ralph. Ralph cares about his younger siblings, so the destruction they can cause will be limited." "Letting them live—the Fiore Royal Family, the Hunter Association, and the human world would agree." "Kaba doesn't have the ability to reproduce." "After Ralph dies, even if Kaba changes hosts, he'll still just be a monster." "He can be completely regarded just as a dangerous magical beast." "The human continent isn't lacking in such existences." "More people die at the hands of the world's mafia, the Phantom Troupe, and those big forces." "Moreover, Kaba may not be able to change hosts." "He may die along with Ralph's death." Outside, the rain was still falling. As time passed, not only did it not lessen, but it was getting heavier. Water had already begun to accumulate on the ground. "Ralph, do you know why I agreed so easily to keep your secret?" Ron's sudden question stunned Ralph. Ralph subconsciously became alert. "In fact, it's not because of the power you showed," Ron said. "One reason is because of Lilith. You take good care of Lilith and the others. I think you are a good person." "The second is that I, like you, have power beyond ordinary people." Ralph's pupils shrank. "You're like me?" Ralph quickly looked at Kaba. But Kaba shook his head. "He doesn't have the aura of my kind." "I said similar, not the same," Ron said, raising his hand to pick up a stone beside him. "Crack!" Ron gently squeezed. The stone shattered into many fragments. ----------------------- You can read up to 120 Advanced chapters! Patreon(.)com/IDKjust
