“So what you are telling me is that hidden away from the eyes of the public are humans capable of crazy feats?
Why didn’t Drake or Ari know about this?” Silva asked, looking at them.
“Well, you can’t blame them because they don’t know. This information is only open to a select few. If the vampire had stayed with his people and become one of the rulers, he would have most definitely found out,” White Fang explained.

“I see. So tell me how this has anything to do with you, my mother, or whoever this Azreal person is,” Silva said.
“Hmm, well, to explain, I’ll have to tell you about my family, which, by the looks of things, is your family as well.
Our family was known pretty much for their looks, as you can tell. Of all the ten families, we could be said to be the ones that the celestials focused on more in the area of beauty.
But that’s not all we are, as we are known as the third strongest original family.
You see, the healing factor you saw me use is not something I gained as a hero. No, it’s my ability for being part of the original family.
It’s called infinite regeneration, where as long as my heart exists somewhere in this world, I’ll never die.
It’s a crazy ability, but all you have to do is eradicate my heart, and I’ll die. But you can’t do that because when I was only ten, my father ripped my heart out of me.
He stored it in an impenetrable safe and then took it on a three-month-long journey to hide it where no one can remember, even me.
He had his memory of the location wiped from his head, and now, no one knows where the heart lies. So that makes me basically immortal,” White Fang explained.
“That ability is too much. You can’t just be unkillable like that,” Silva said.
“But I am. The abilities you get as part of the original family are beyond what you can understand normally. Now back to what I was saying—that’s why I have that healing factor.
But you see, I wasn’t just born with one ability; I was born with two, because of my twin sister, Azreal.
You see, my sister was not normal, even when compared to us. She was beyond us by far. My parents knew this because our mother was carrying triplets, but Azreal one day consumed our sister in the womb.
She allowed our sister to become a part of her so that she would be able to manipulate and use her whenever she wanted to hide from the world.
Azreal was extremely powerful, even from birth. Her ability, Reality Manipulation, could change reality to her whims. She could do whatever she wanted, create whatever she wanted, and as long as she was still alive, that thing would exist.
Compared to my ability to heal, hers was something else—she was leagues ahead. Now, this is where my second ability comes in.
For some reason, I could intentionally negate her ability to a certain extent, at least to create a loophole or small gate that people could use to escape her new reality she made.
And because of that, Azreal hated me, because my father had me move with her at all times to ensure that she didn’t do anything crazy.
I was her fail-safe. She could never really do what she wanted with me around, and she could not kill me because, well, I heal up,” White Fang paused a bit and then looked at his sister.
“I’m about to get into the interesting part. Why don’t you take a seat?” he asked.
“I’m fine. Your presence here is already irking me to no end,” she said.
“Well, fine,” he replied and faced Silva.
“So, you remember that sibling who was consumed in the womb? Well, Azreal turned her consciousness into a puppet.
Whenever she wanted to lead a happy and new life somewhere, she would create a reality, changing the history of the place—like making it seem she was their mother since birth.
She would completely alter that reality, fit herself into it, and then she would wipe the memory of our twin in her and place her in that place, filling her with the memories she wanted.
So our twin believes that she is actually from that place and that all her memories are true. My sister has done this twisted thing many times.
But they only lasted weeks to months because I would find her easily.
But then I became a hero candidate and became a hero, and something took me away for a year. Just a year was what it took.
When I came back, my sister had vanished. She used that year to craft the reality she wanted. She made sure she covered every nook and cranny.
It was not something I could track anymore. She reworked her history and the history of humans to fit her new persona.
That’s just how powerful and terrifying her ability is. I searched for years and couldn’t find anything. She had totally vanished, and this time, she did it well.
I had even begun to lose hope of finding her because the more time passed, the more she solidified her new reality that she had created.
But then I found you, Silva. The hair, the look, the eyes. But you were a demon king candidate, not human—how could that even make sense?
But I looked into it more and realized that you were born human and somehow shifted into being a dragon.
After that, I believed there was a possibility that you had something to do with her. Never would I have expected that she changed the reality of a full kingdom and placed herself in it.
She basically modeled what this kingdom had become by her lonesome, while forcing our twin in her to believe this was her reality.
Out of all the crazy things you have done, sis, this one takes the crown,” White Fang said.
