My Identity Is Becoming More and More Astonishing

Chen's hand trembled, and he almost dropped the soul bead on the floor.

"Xiaoyu, is your brother trying to make mom and dad Transcendents?!" Chen's eyes sparkled.

"Yes." Chen Yu nodded again: "At least while I'm away, you'll have the minimum ability to protect yourselves."

"We don't need it." Chen placed the soul bead back on the dinner table and immediately refused: "You eat it. You need this more."

"Exactly." Ms. Chen agreed: "We all know you seem to have gotten into a lot of trouble. It's very dangerous for you out there. You eat it yourself."

"I temporarily don't need it." Chen Yu was adamant: "This soul bead is left for you."

"Don't want it. We're so old, what do we need to become Transcendents for?" Ms. Chen's expression was stern: "Besides, we have your sister. If we really need to eat it, we'll eat hers."

Chen: "!!!"

Chen Yu: "... what spare food."

"Slap!"

Chen furiously slapped Ms. Chen on the forehead: "What the hell are you babbling about."

"Either way, today, one of you two has to eat it." Chen Yu stood up, his tone calm: "If neither of you eats, I'll just force it into your mouths."

Seeing Chen Yu's very firm attitude.

Chen hesitated for a moment and looked towards Chen: "Can your sister eat it?"

"The soul bead doesn't seem to work much on 'evil things'." Chen Yu shook his head: "I don't understand much about this."

"I'm not eating it," Chen refused: "Besides, I faintly feel that I'm about to awaken my superpower soon. Giving it to me would be a waste."

"You're about to awaken your superpower?" Chen Yu was surprised.

"It's a guess." Chen nodded.

"That's good, at least you will have some ability to defend yourself. Tomorrow, I will have that bearded guy keep an eye on you, and after you awaken your superpower, let him train you."

After speaking, Chen Yu looked back at his parents: "Which one of you will eat it?"

"Do we have to eat it?" Chen squinted his eyes.

"Yes."

"Honey, then you should eat it," Ms. Chen hesitated and then declined.

"Alright." Chen nodded vigorously, grabbed the soul bead from the table, and stuffed it into his mouth: "Then I won't be polite."

Ms. Chen: "(ŎдŎ;)"

"Gulp."

Swallowing the soul bead, Chen's face was stern, his demeanor commanding: "As the head of the family, I must protect my family and be the first to charge! If I don't enter hell, who will?"

Ms. Chen: "..."

As the soul bead was swallowed.

Just seconds later, with Chen as the center, a strange whirlwind started and spun faster and faster.

"It's taking effect." A glint flashed in Chen Yu's eyes.

The soul bead is not omnipotent.

To evolve an ordinary person into a Transcendent, at the very least, that person needs to have the "Seed of Superpower" within them.

Otherwise, it's just a waste.

Fortunately, there was a "seed" inside Chen.

'So, the odds of ordinary people awakening are really slim.''

Chen Yu was lost in thought.

His father was nearly sixty years old this year.

Sixty years of life, twenty-two thousand days spent, yet still not meeting the conditions for "awakening."

Meanwhile, the chubby shut-in next door managed to awaken at the age of twenty.

The fates of people, indeed, are hard to compare.

After a while.

The whirlwind in the room gradually subsided.

The hot-bodied Chen slowly opened his eyes.

His whole being radiated a vigor that did not match his age.

"Dad, did you awaken successfully?" Chen asked excitedly.

"I did." Chen looked down, focusing on his own palms, as if lost in a dream.

"What superpower is it?" Ms. Chen eagerly asked.

"This superpower... it's strange." Chen furrowed his brows: "It seems like, um, the older a woman I sleep with, the faster I gain strength."

Chen Yu: "..."

Chen: "..."

Ms. Chen walked straight into the kitchen, her face expressionless, and pulled out a kitchen knife.

"Ah, I'm just kidding, it's not that." Chen quickly backed away, waving his hands in fear: "Just fooling with you, calm down."

"Dad, stop messing around," Chen said with a complete face of annoyance: "What superpower did you really awaken?"

"Let me try." Chen closed his eyes and instinctively circulated the essence of his newfound power.

Suddenly, a strong wave of superpower spread out.

One minute.

Two minutes.

Three minutes...

"Buzz—"

"Buzz buzz buzz—"

Outside the window of Room 301, a distant humming sound, growing louder and louder, could be heard.

Chen Yu, puzzled, turned to look.

He saw that somehow the balcony window was surrounded by a dense swarm of little bugs.

Upon closer inspection, they were all mosquitoes!

"Slap!"

Suddenly opening his eyes, Chen also turned his head towards the countless mosquitoes outside the window, excited: "I know now! My superpower is 'Taunting' every mosquito within a hundred miles, forcing them to mark me as their primary target!"

"..."

Chen Yu, Chen, and Ms. Chen, instantly fell silent.

Chen: "... Dad, that's a really rare superpower you've got there."

Ms. Chen: "Damn, I should have eaten it."

Chen Yu: "Thank you, Mosquito Hero."

...

That night, there was no conversation.

The next morning, the Chen family gathered in the living room to see Chen Yu off.

"Son, be sure to stay safe." Ms. Chen's eyes were red as she came forward and hugged Chen Yu: "Come back soon."

Last night, Chen Yu bid farewell with unusual solemnity, making the elder aware of the seriousness of the situation. She faintly sensed that her son might not return.

"Don't worry." Chen Yu comforted, patting Ms. Chen on the back gently.

"There's no mobile signal in that godforsaken place, you'd better write to us regularly." Chen's eyes intense: "Once your dad has made some progress in his training, I'll come help you. Just like they say, father and son soldiers on the battlefield."
