From childhood, Jin Luo had always been the silent type and he had never done things the flamboyant way.
Of course, the entrance exam was an exception. Before, he had even studied how to reduce the aura of his magnetic field to prevent the waves from intervening with the system.
However, even his best efforts couldn't save him from prodigy class...
Where do I even start?
At dinner, Jin Luo casually ate a mouthful of rice and couldn't help sighing.
I thought being low-key would be easy... it suddenly became even more difficult!
His parents wouldn't even begin to grasp his pain, so why bother?
This playful couple goggled at the admittance into prodigy class. Then a moment after, his father, with a silver monocle, slicked-back hair and fairly attractive features cupped his chin as he looked at Jin Luo. "Jin Luo. I need to have a word with you."
Although he was very reluctant to even listen to the individual who hadn't even reached Foundation Establishment, Jin Luo still obediently lay his chopsticks down.
"What did I tell you! Don't get such good grades everytime! Do you know how awkward it is for your mother and I when we attend to those parent meetings?" Father Jin pinched his mustache as he said this.
"They even admitted you to the best class, that was not what we wanted! What do you have to say for yourself?"
Jin Luo: "..." Oh f**k me!
He rolled his eyes wordlessly.
"Look, I'm not mad, just... don't get good grades everytime."
"You know your mother and I haven't reached Foundation yet right? We're incapable of doing so! And you? Think about the rumours bubbling about us..." Father Jin at that point covered his face. "At that point, a cuck was what they were calling me!"
Jin Luo: "..."
"Next time, just hand in a blank paper. Don't listen to your mother about still practicing your arts, it's complete bullshit."
"I heard that!" Mother Jin exclaimed from the kitchen.
Jin Luo was speechless. So he was just blindly taking exams wasn't he?
"If you do so well again... I'll spank your ass!"
Jin Luo: "..." Son of a...
When he heard this, Jin Luo only clenched his hand tightly and the chopstick broke in half.
Father Jin shuddered as he saw this. "Shit! I just bought a pair of these Celestial Astral Ore Chopsticks two days ago! I hadn't even used one, and another pair is broken!"
"Just forget it. You should know that Luoluo isn't able to precisely control his strength... I'm surprised that he didn't break the equipment in the test, seems as though he was practicing." Compared to Father Jin, Mother Jin always had a gentle nature as he talked about matters like these, which always made Jin Luo, somebody who was in-between, feel very embarrassed.
"Fine, fine. I'm still pissed about those virtual glasses though..." Father Jin said as he took a bite out of the lobster meat.
"We should be teaching Luoluo how to control his strength and eat well. Another pair is broken already... the quality is lacking daily." Mother Jin sighed. Now the family will have to spend more money.
Ever since he was little, Jin Luo's grip had always been undeniably powerful. It had gotten to the point where the family had to buy extra stuff if he broke any of them... that included the furniture, which was made with esper.
When Mrs and Mr Jin saw the broken chopsticks, they felt a mix of emotions. Teaching Jin Luo how to use chopsticks had been the same result, hundreds upon hundreds were sacrificed!
It could all be summed up in one sentence: "pain in the ass."
This pain in the ass had accompanied Jin Luo almost all his life, he had gotten used to it at this point.
When you have reached the highest level, what then?
Slot machines? Performing on the street to earn money?
Due to his precognition, sure, Jin Luo could win against every slot machine in the world... but that would ultimately draw attention to himself.
It's true that Jin Luo could destroy towering mountains with a punch, but most of them were owned by the government! Furthermore, if they ever caught him, he would face the death penalty!
Power for unparalleled dominion over earth and above?
Sure, Jin Luo could rule the entire planet if he wanted to, but he would rather prefer to read comics at home.
Boundless magic power, ability to manipulate and reverse time and space?
Admittedly, Jin Luo could open a dimensional portal to another world, but if he ever got caught by the Space Bureau— the Jin Family would suffer the consequences.
All in all, having this much power may sound amazing at first, but to Jin Luo— it was nothing more than a nuisance.
Even if he was suprassing the very peak, so what? He still had to study his quiet life carefully in order to maintain a low-key profile and not draw attention to his normie parents.
Jin Luo ate the last piece of rice and couldn't help but grieve in his heart: It's so tiring for me!
In theory, Jin Luo didn't really have to eat or drink water, just the spiritual energy from heaven and earth is able to fully hydrate him.
...
It was late at night as Jin Luo returned to his bedroom, his favourite thing to do was to lie on his bed and reflect on the day.
Only at this time, would Jin Luo's ears feel a little better.
Although I am still affected by my telepathy, I can hear small whispers in my ear.
But compared to the environment during the day, Jin Luo felt that this was actually more peaceful.
Many times, he wondered if he was from another world. However, the iron evidence of DNA tests destroyed his doubts and thoughts entirely from a young age. This normie couple who displayed their affection outside and inside were his biological parents.
The most terrifying thing in the world isn't that you're not making progress, it's as if that progress never seemed to stop its rapid advancement.
This made Jin Luo shudder as he thought about this.
From a young age, Jin Luo had tried to figure out limits to his realm, and he attempted to figure out the cause... but he had then found out that such limits were not bestowed upon him, and the cause was still unknown.
Jin Luo's realm remained steadfast for many years, and he couldn't quite see what the end would be. This made him anxious for a while.
However, what makes Jin Luo even more anxious now, is his upcoming high school life.
Who knows what he will face tomorrow?!
I wanted to enter school in a low-key approach, but I ended up being admitted into the best class...
This irritated him a bit.
Additionally, Cute Lin... she was going to be a problem for him.
Originally, Jin Luo didn't have intention to chat with Cute Lin, but now it was the tip of the iceberg Indeed.
So Jin Luo did what anyone would do in his situation...
Eat custard bun snacks!
