Although Doctor Roach didn't act close to Shawn in the last five years, he didn't openly despise him either as there was a possibility of Shawn developing his powers. His actions towards Shawn seemed only professional till now. He was neither too friendly nor too harsh but only kept an average attitude towards the child. But now Shawn was already fifteen years old and a failure, there was no reason for him to act cordial anymore.Shawn's face paled as he heard the answer from Doctor Roach. It felt like his world came crashing down, and every word of that sentence hit his heart like a bullet.Tears lurked, making his eyes glittery, his vision blurred as he tried to fight back the heartbreak and emotional pain he was feeling. He gritted his teeth and refused to cry out his pain.“But you can still help humanity. So you're not completely useless. Come with us.” Doctor Roach further said in a villainous tone as his eyes shone like a vulture under thick gold-framed glasses.Shawn stood up

[ALTERNATE EARTH]Shawn continued walking for over seven hours before he saw the nearest town. His stomach had started growling long ago; now that a town was here, it growled more. It was as if it was telling Shawn to eat.He entered the town. There was still the lab's patient robe on his body which looked even dirtier as if he was a beggar. He tried to look for a place to get something to eat.Seeing a small restaurant after searching for a long time, he decided to enter the place.As soon as he stepped inside the restaurant, he attracted the attention of the waiter.“What do you need, boy? This is not a place for kids to enter. If you don't have money, then scram out of here!” the waiter of the small restaurant told Shawn as he walked towards him.Due to malnutrition and lack of sleep, Shawn looked so scrawny and a bit small, unlike kids his age.“I need food.” Shawn said to the waiter, but the guy refused even to listen.“Can a beggar like you even have money? Scram out before I cu

The ones who hadn't noticed his wounds heal also saw him stand up suddenly. Their laughter got replaced with dread.“Wh.. what? Can he even heal from that? It's impossible!” someone spoke on behalf of everyone as the table turned yet again.Once again, the fear chained the hearts of people as they realized that the man they faced wasn't a normal Variant, but something else entirely. They had never heard of a Variant who could heal himself.Just what was he exactly? How could he heal himself. Was he even a human?Questions piled up inside their minds, making their thoughts go haywire, but they couldn't find any possible answers to satisfy their piqued curiosity.Shawn looked at the man who had fired the shot and began striding towards him.Big Joe was stunned to see Shawn alive and moving as if nothing happened. Before that, he didn't feel scared, but now? He wasn't only feeling scared, he was feeling a chill run down his spine as his feet froze in place. But he was too stubborn to giv

While the ARV was focusing more on the town, keeping their entire focus on locating Shawn, Shawn was actually moving towards Jacksonville where his home was.He had awakened the power of Wind that h3 received from his mother. This power allowed a person to be able to do many things, but for now, Shawn was only able to use it to run like the wind. His entire body felt as light as a feather as he sprinted through the woods. Shawn knew that the people who awakened the power of wind were even able to fly, but that was only possible if their abilities were at the same level as his mother. His mother was the only elemental wind sorceress who could utilize the complete power of wind and fly. There were other awakened ones who could fly, but they all had different magic than her. Not a single person was able to fly after getting the power of Wind except for his mother since her power of wind was A-rank. Unfortunately her power of wind was overshadowed by her power of Decay which was an S-rank

He once again aimed his gun at Shawn's head before he started firing. One after another, all the bullets were emptied inside Shawn. Marlon did not stop this time until his gun was completely empty. Unfortunately for him, Shawn still did not fall. Not only that; but the way Shawn was taking the bullets so easily made Marlon feel he was in a nightmare where the Devil had taken the shape of a teenager to scare them.“Why don't you just die!?” Marlon roared as he threw the gun towards Shawn. Shawn waved his hand gently, tossing the gun aside without letting it hit him.Marlon felt like he was going crazy. He started running towards Shawn as he punched out. Since guns were useless, he was going let his hands do the job to knock Shawn out. His bad luck did not leave him this time either, as his hand was caught easily.Shawn caught the fist of Marlon which was coming to his face.“Why do you squirm and resist? Gladly accept your fate and be punished for your sins.” Shawn said with a stoic ex
