Chapter 335: 335: Confessed
'Shit, fucking old man.'
Caleb didn't know what to do now. Should he confess and tell his father and his mother about his secret? As for his two brothers, he doesn't worry about them. Because he knew that they would understand him.
"So son, would you mind telling us what your secret is? I didn't know that you now know how to keep secrets from us." The father looked at Caleb with a faint smile on his face. However, he stood beside Caleb and patted him on the shoulder. "But if you really don't want to say it, then don't. Just like what father said, everyone is privileged to have their own secret."
"My son, if you're not ready to reveal it, then I won't force you to do so. I know that you won't keep something a secret unless it's not a big matter. But I just hope that you're not doing something dangerous."
"I agree with your father." On the other hand, Caleb's mother also showed her support as she gave her son an encouraging nod.
Klein and Delvin were rather curious about what the secret was. But they would respect their brother's decision regarding this matter so they just kept silent.
At this moment, Caleb became conflicted if he would say his secret or not. He was touched that everyone here in his family is not trying to force him. Rather they showed their support in their own way and did not try to pressure him. 'This family is really good. Ain't that it?' Caleb smiled widely.
The more that he spent time with them, the more he got attached to this family of his. It was a perfect family anyone could wish for. "Well, I think you guys would regret it if you didn't find out about his secret." The old man, Jeff, didn't hold back and teased.
Caleb could only sigh about this. "Well, fine, fine. I'll... It's not that important or something. And I'm not planning to keep it secret to you guys forever..."
"So, yes, I'll... I'll say it. I'll say it. I'm a transcendent.
"Suddenly, a pin-dropped silence ensued. No one talked. His father, his mother, Klein, and Delvin, showed a stunned expression. They did not know how to react. And they just stared at Caleb with an expression saying, Huh? Who would believe you?
It was as if they were trying to open their mouths but no word would come out.
Seeing this, Caleb showed a wary smile "I know you guys won't believe it. But I'm really transcendent."
The old man watched all this unfold amusedly and said, "My grandson is telling the truth."
It was a show of his support. The simple reason why he did this is it's not good if he offends his grandson. After all, he was the reason that Adam was now in a pinch. If he did not tell anyone that he had a secret.
His grandson, won't be in such a situation now. Right?
Seeing the old man show a good gesture, Caleb... nodded inwardly. 'Way to go, darned old man.'
Just like that, four ... Delvin, Klein, and their parents finally recovered. "Hmm. So... you're a transcendent. But it's not that we don't believe you, although Father says it otherwise. Well, can you show it to us? And prove that you're really a transcendent? It's just too shocking..." "Don't get me wrong. There are only three transcendents in our country. And every one of them is capable of destroying this country with the full power of their attacks."
The father said in one breath.
"Well, do not believe me? If I said that he is a transcendent, he is a transcendent. Don't you think? Would your son lie to you?" Jeff could not help but add. Your next journey awaits at empire
"No, I believe Adam. I don't know how he did it or when, but I know his character. He won't lie. Yes, he can keep secrets to us now, but he won't lie." With a determined expression on his face, Klein declared.
As someone who watched his younger brother growing up, he knew his younger brother's character well.
And the Adam he knew is not a liar and won't be, at least to them, to his family. Caleb did not know how to react as he saw how Klein trusted him so much.
'What the hell? This guy actually has such a level of faith in me. I won't lie. Well, fuck. What if he knew that I'm not the original Adam anymore? I wonder what would he think. Caleb thought in his heart. "Father, how do I show you that I'm transcendent? Well, shit, I don't know. How should I prove it? Should I perform a trick or something?"
Hearing his son's question, the father was stumped as well. In this world, there are machines or technology that can accurately measure the power of genetic warriors. Unfortunately, they don't have one in the mansion. Those kinds of technology are far from their reach and something that they can't afford even with all of their wealth. It's not a problem of wealth, but status. Maybe his father has one. As a result of this, Caleb's father looked at Jeff and asked, "Father, do you have a method to at least prove that my son is transcendent? You are the one who discovered his realm, right?"
Jeff, hearing his son's question, nodded. "There is a method, one method, to prove it." Everyone perked their ears as they listened intently to Jeff's words. Seeing this, Jeff nodded with satisfaction and playfully said: "That and that method is, well, the direct method is to perform his full power attack." Caleb and everyone looked at each other. "Father, are you joking? If he's really transcendent, his full-powered attack would fucked us all to oblivion. Not to mention the house or the city. The entire country would be in danger. That's not a reliable method, I think." He said helplessly.
Caleb looked at the old man with a pissed expression. Is this old bastard serious? In the virtual reality of the school, Caleb had already witnessed how powerful his full-powered attack could be. If he really attacked with his full power, the Philippines would disappear in the face of the planet. Is he going senile?
