Johnny and his parents weren't overly concerned when they heard the question. Even though none of them had wanted it to show up during the press conference, the chances of it happening were too high to ignore. Obviously, the person who leaked the information would also share that Johnny had just received his power. It was too juicy to leave out.They had considered two ways to handle it. One was to lie and pretend that wasn't true. Obviously, that was out of the question. It had only been brought up so they would be on the same page. There were too many things wrong with the idea for it to work. They would just end up digging a bigger hole for themselves. That's why they settled for the second idea."That's correct," Johnny said.He barely finished speaking when the reporters erupted. This time, Johnny used his power to quieten everyone down. There was no way he was going to let his father do it a second time. It was bad enough that his father did it once. He couldn't afford another h

Johnny would take what he could get. Even though it wasn't a power that would make him smarter, having the power to recall everything in perfect detail wasn't anything to scoff at. He could just read all the books and papers related to running the family and bring up the memory to deal with whatever issue that might appear."How can I get that power?" Johnny asked as he sat up. "Will the system just give it to me, or do I have to do a quest?"Speaking of quests, he hadn't asked anyone if they also received quests from the system. There were no mentions of quests in the news when people talked about the blessed, and no one in the house had talked about it within hearing range. He guessed it was another special privilege he got, though it would be great if he could get it for free like he did with his healing power.[The user is quite smart.][The user will indeed have to complete a quest before they can obtain a new power. The user's acquisition of their healing power was an exception.

The servants immediately panicked and ran away from the fight that spilled into the hallway. None of them were crazy enough to get in the middle of two very powerful blessed. They wouldn't stand a chance against them. Johnny cursed as he tried to avoid using his power. Unlike with Rachel's power, his would do a lot more damage. He didn't want to accidentally set the whole building on fire.While he was sure that his parents had some countermeasures in place, considering they are a family with fire powers, he still didn't want to risk it. Dodging a blast of wind, he was surprised to see it didn't actually do that much damage to the wall. There was only a small indent. Either she was going easy on him or the walls were really strong to withstand the attacks.One glance at Rachel told him that the former was unlikely. He wondered what his family used to make the walls so durable. Another blast of wind ended those thoughts as he tried to find something to defend himself. His foot kicked a

Johnny flipped through the channels to see if any footage had been leaked to the press. So far, there hadn't been any news about it in the past couple days. It seemed that the servants had been fully cowed into not attempting anything. That was good. He really didn't want to have to deal with another scandal so soon after the last one. The only bright spot in this incident was that he was able to send a bill to the two families. His parents were fully onboard with the idea, but they made sure not to name names in case someone got ahold of it to use as blackmail. It only listed the names of the families involved and a bill stating it was for damages made to the Burns family. He wished he could see what kind of expression they might have made when they saw the bill arrive at their doorstep. Johnny was sure that the two women would be chewed out for it. It must have been so embarrassing to receive a bill for causing trouble at another family's house. Of course, he would

Johnny didn't see that happening. There was no way he was going to suddenly give up the position he had just received. Even if he really wanted to give up the position, it wasn't possible at that moment. His parents had announced he was the heir not too long ago. If he were to suddenly step down, they would face criticism for his choice.He might not know a lot about his parents. A couple weeks wasn't enough time to get to know them, but anyone could tell how much they cared for him. There was no way he would do anything to spit on their efforts. Since he wasn't going to step down, that would mean the other party would have to. Of course, they all knew that wasn't happening, so there was no point in thinking about it."Instead of a contractual relationship, why don't we enter a partnership?" he suggested.His father raised an eyebrow. "A partnership?""Both sides obviously don't want people to think we're in a relationship, and getting rid of the rumors won't be easy. The best we can
