Chapter 248: Aunt Or Demon? Part 1

Adam suddenly felt overwhelmed by so many emotions as he stumbled backwards onto the ground as his biggest fear was becoming true.

He had remembered the bodies of the 5 dead men that were tortured and remembered that Angela Maxwell had told him that evil methods would use the negative energy that was emitted by humans that were experiencing extreme negative emotions.

That could be done through torture, sexual assault and many other ways and they would do so to suck in the life force and energy of the target, which could be absorbed by the Evil Cultivator as negative energy.

There was negative energy in the atmosphere in the same way that there was positive energy, but almost all humans were unable to absorb it into their bodies like positive energy.

However, through evil methods and by committing evil acts, an evil cultivator would be able to create negative energy and suck it out of their target's body and into their own.

There were also other ways, but that was the fastest and most prominent way that was used by evil cultivators, according to what Angela had told him.

However, she had also told him that those methods would use the life force and negative energy and absorb it into his body, which in the process would heal them from any wounds and would strengthen their bodies.

They needed the life force and vitality to balance out the damage that the negative energy was going to their bodies, and healing was merely a positive side effect.

"How did all of this happen. My aunt, my mother, the one I loved the most became one of the people that I was scared of and hated the most" wept Adam as a eat began to stream down his face.

Looking at his aunt's face he was hoping that she felt guilt and would repent and never do the same thing again, but was shocked when he saw her expression.

There was a single ounce of guilt or remorse as she looked at her heartbroken son and burst out into laughter.

"You look at me with disgust and dare to judge me and evil cultivation. I sacrificed everything for you and my entire life was filled with pain. Coming as an orphan refugee, alone without any support, I had to deal with racism, the language barrier and all I wanted was to live a normal, comfortable life"

"I was too kind-hearted and decided to take in a weak and useless boy that was a leach. You forced me to overwork in order to sustain your lazy and ignorant lifestyle to the point where I fell into a come. 2 years of my miserable life wasted sleeping, while the rest of it being used working as a slave for what. What do I have to show for it?" she bellowed.

"Everything piles up and even after I woke up from my coma, you were arrogant just because you helped me recover. You did as you pleased just because you were a cultivator and even dared to shout at me and tell me what to do. Well, guess what, I will kill anyone, do anything and no longer care as long as I become powerful and capable enough to do as I please"

"Aunt..." uttered Adam who was overwhelmed by everything that was happening.

He had overcome everything so far, but seeing his aunt become a monster and one of the things that he had pledged to destroy, had broken him.

"Shut up" she scolded as he kicked him in the stomach.

Surprisingly, Adam was hurt slightly by the kick and launched sliding across the floor of the apartment.

Ava was screaming in Adam's mind, but she couldn't get through to him and she couldn't warn him about everything that she knew about as she was restricted by the program that was only focused on Adam's growth.

The program believed that hardship would make Adam stronger and she could only tell him things and help him in certain instances that the system allowed her to.

"I have always been nice, helpful, kind and caring to others, but still I was abused and mistreated because of how I looked and my financial situation. I was even tricked and kidnapped, all because kindness, naivety and mercy is weakness"

"You claim to love me, but you trapped me. You didn't teach me to cultivate your puny and weak methods, you didn't tell me the truth and locked me in this trashy place. The one time I tried to be free, I was captured and taken because of you. Well not anymore as there is no higher level of freedom than being able to kill and suck in the energy of others without having to worry about consequences"

"I never had a life and that is your fault and the cruel world's fault. If you and the world no longer care about me and want to chain me, I no longer care about anyone or anything. As long as I have power, I wouldn't mind killing every single living soul" she declared.

A red aura of evil, death and destruction enveloped Jannet that even scared and intimated Adam that couldn't even move because of the powerful aura.

His aunt let out a roar and all the glass, including the windows, in not only his building, but the entire area, was shattered.

Her roar was filled with anger, sadness, regret and all the other negative emotions as everything she had felt over her lifetime had finally pushed her over the edge.

"I will let you live and watch me destroy you and the rest of the world slowly. You are the cause of my pain, but I cannot let you off as death would be too merciful. You are my drive to kill and will pay for all the pain you caused me" she stated as she smiled evilly at Adam and walked over to him.

"Your aunt, your adoptive mother, your loved one. Just forget about all of that. I love no one and am the Demon Queen" she declared as she stood before Adam and crushed him with her aura.
