Blood Assimilation
Chapter 69: Emotional Exchange
Sensing the gaze on him, Randy quickly replied in a genuine tone: "That's right, I just did not inform mom, because I wanted to surprise you all."
""Surprise?""
Listening to his response, the two parents could not help but mutter these words in surprise.
"That's right, that was my plan. Since it took me so long to awaken my innate ability unlike my peers, so I thought that revealing it on a special occasion like this would be more impactful; I have already registered for my university entrance examination, so this was the perfect time to reveal the truth, don't you think so?" Randy responded with a smile.
Hearing his explanation, they did not say anything and proceeded to look at their son who was standing in front of them with a smile on his face, and instantly their expression turned gentle for a brief moment before abruptly returning to their gloomy state.
'To think that he was thinking of something like that when he could have simply told us about it as soon as he had awakened his innate ability…?
Even after treating him with so much isolation all this time, he still respected and treated us like his parents, enough to want to surprise us like this… Just what were we doing all this time? Was it really the right decision? Were there other ways we could have handled the situation?'
Both parents silently thought as they looked at their son with a complicated expression.
After a moment of silence, all of a sudden, Nathan then doubtfully asked: "Randy… Don't you hate us… for the way we treated you in the past?"
"Why would I hate you?"
Randy answered without thinking much of his question, seemingly could not understand why his father would suddenly ask such a question.
"I am serious, so give me a serious answer, Randy."
Nathan said in a serious tone, seemingly thinking that his son was not being honest with his response.
Hearing the serious tone from his father, Randy instantly turned quiet for a brief moment without saying anything.
After a while, he suddenly sighed and uttered: "Of course, it will be a lie if I said that I did not harbor some hatred for you all at some point when I did not receive any attention from you all, but…"
Randy paused for a bit and then continued: "But lately, I don't feel that way."
""Why is that?"" Both Nathan and Riley carefully asked simultaneously.
"You're my parents and I feel like there must be some underlying reason why you would start treating me like that even though I have no idea why. I remember that when I was young, you both never treated me like that. I think it all started when… it was only when I had started exhibiting changes in these eyes of mine... Only then did I begin to sense a difference in your treatment towards me…" Randy answered them.
And then he continued: "And also, when I couldn't awaken my innate ability, that was when you all started being stern and while constantly telling me that I was useless since I could not awaken my innate ability and that I will not be able to survive in this world if I stay like this."
After saying so much Randy concluded: "But none of that matters, as I have already awakened my ability now. In that sense, there is no need to know why you both started treating like that."
"…"
Listening to him, Nathan, and Riley both were stunned and immediately felt emotional with a gentle expression, almost tearing up on the spot, especially Riley who was clearly more emotional than she actually seems.
"I'm sorry, Randy… we only thought that was the only decision to make at the time, but we did not mean to make you feel isolated, it was only because…"
With teary eyes, Riley gently looked at Randy as she said this.
Despite all that he had to bear with all this time, he never once cried about it, however when he heard his mother's voice just now, Randy was almost at the brink of tearing up himself, as all his pent-up emotions gradually surfaced at this moment.
In spite of that, he did not shed a single tear. He does not want to appear like a weakling who cries so easily over everything that happens in his life.
He immediately controlled his emotions by clenching his fist tightly.
On the other hand, Nathan put his arm around his wife, holding her in his arms, and then seriously spoke: "We are very happy that you do not hate us for this matter, however, it is still too early to inform you of our reasons. I can only tell you that you would naturally come to understand everything in the future. Once you get strong enough, I will tell you everything that you need to know, but for now, that will have to wait."
After saying that, he did not wait for Randy to respond and immediately changed topics.
"Right, what type of ability did you acquire through your awakening? And what does it say about your class?" He asked.
"Ah, I am not sure about the class, but it has something to do with blood like dad's ability, I guess." Randy appeared troubled as he answered this.
This was the second time someone asked him about his class, and he did not really know what to say to them. After all, even he does not know what class he has, so how could he inform others about it?
Hearing this response, Nathan was confused and could not help but question him further: "What do you mean that you are not sure about your class, did it not explicitly say what it was on your system's display? Wait, did you not receive a system?"
"That's not it, I received a system, but it said on the class section that it was Blood and then followed by some question marks, so I have no idea what the subsequent words were."
Randy waved his hand as he responded to his father.
