Chapter 150 If I Have Power...

Chapter 150 If I Have Power...

When the young boy, Jake, heard Alister's question, he pondered.

'Power… Do I want it?'

'Without power, I can't do anything in this world. I am powerless and because of that, everyone discarded my life and trampled on me as if I was nothing but garbage on the roadside.'

'If I have power, would my life be more different?'

'If I have power, can I finally let Ellie look at me in a different light and finally obtain her heart?'

'If I have power… Can I finally fix my mistakes and make up for the regrets I had in my life?'

Despite being a mere ten-year-old boy, Jake had already reviewed his life from a mature perspective that was not befitting of his age.

Childish innocence… Jake no longer had it.

He had lost it by the time he had experienced the darkness of this world.

Because of that, Jake wanted to obtain power.

As for why, it was none other than a means to protect himself.

He didn't want to rely on those transcendents when a monster outbreak would occur.

Jake knew that not all transcendents were like Alister who bothered to save an old man like Bruce and a young child like himself.

Like those hypocritical adults who would preach to save human lives yet they were the first ones to abandon a fellow human life in order to save theirs. Most humans in this world were like that. They were selfish to the core.

Jake didn't want to rely on those selfish hypocrites. It was far more reliable to rely on your own than others.

Because of that, Jake yearned for power.

However…

"Even if I want power, I can't receive it yet. The first phase in superpower awakening is when I reach the age of 12 years old. I am still ten years old right now so I can't awaken my power yet and that's assuming I have the talent and superpower."

When Jake mentioned that, he sighed dejectedly.

"Boy, the power I am referring to is far more superior than the so-called mana and superpower. It's a power foreign to this world—a power from another world."

To make his offer more appealing, Alister made the introduction of the power he was going to bestow a lot more mysterious.

With his absolute mind superpower, Alister didn't care whether he revealed the existence of another world to Jake.

After all, if Jake didn't accept his offer, he could just erase Jake's memories.

Of course, Jake didn't know about that. He never expected that Alister or any transcendents have the power to erase and manipulate memories.

When Jake heard Alister mention the power originating from another world, it was a lie to say that he wasn't interested.

After all, Jake had seen the old man Bruce use power that seemed to be different when compared to mana and superpowers. At least, Jake had never seen a transcendent with a superpower that could summon a literal armor with the added ability of holy energy manipulation.

To gain such power… Jake would do anything!

Of course, anything except for killing Ellie. He would never kill her!

Seeing through the thoughts of Jake, Alister sneered inwardly, 'Simp!'

"So, what do you think, boy? As long as you don't betray me and listen to my commands from time to time, I can grant you power."

But even with him offering power, Alister could notice that Jake was still hesitating on whether to accept his offer or not.

It was not that Jake didn't trust Alister. After all, Alister was one of the few persons who had bothered to help or save him.

But since this was a decision that would decide his future, Jake knew that he couldn't accept this without thinking it over thoroughly.

Noticing that Jake was still hesitating, Alister joked, "If power isn't attractive to you, what if I say that I can give you the body of the girl you mentioned as Ellie? Although I am not Ellie's father, I am powerful enough to tie her up and send her to your bed."

"Whether you want to drug her or not, it's up to you.", Alister tempted Jake while his left hand's index and thumb fingers connected to form a circle while his right hand's index finger straightened, moved, and passed through the center of that circle, like how a dragon would enter a cave's hole.

Despite being a ten-year-old boy, Jake seemed to know what Alister meant which caused Jake to blush heavily in embarrassment!

"Don't say that! Ellie and I are still ten years old. We are still young and we won't engage in sexual activities!"

"Wait, that's not the point! My love for Ellie is pure and not just physical and sexual attraction! She is the one for me. She is the girl I am willing to spend an eternity with!"

"I don't just want her body, but also her heart as well! It's pointless if I only get her body yet she doesn't want to be with me."

Alister seemed to ignore Jake's excuses and replied nonchalantly, "You might say that now, but if you hit puberty, you will be like a dog in heat."

"Let me say this, a girl's body is more important than her heart. As for why, let me ask you this. Even if Ellie loves you, will you accept it if her body is being used by other men?"

"A wise man once said: the way into a girl's heart is into their body. As long as you conquer their body, conquering their heart is easy. It's even easier if you give them a baby and let them feel what's it like to be a mother. For the sake of the baby, they will accept you just for the sake of the baby having a father."

"Of course, that's assuming you can awaken that girl's maternal instinct. If not, then this plan is impossible but you can still get her body in the end."

With the words of a sage, Alister started enlightening Jake about the Dao of Villainy.
