Pretending To Be A Boss-Chapter 505 - 96: The Demon Child’s Past_2
A deluge of memories suddenly emerged from his mind, just like those people in the movies who had altered the timeline, and in an instant, they received the memories of that timeline.
The chaotic memories in his brain began to unfold, one by one, and all the puzzles seemed about to be solved.
His eyes were bloodshot, like an insomniac who hadn’t slept for a long time, yet could never fall asleep.
His breathing became more and more rapid; he could still hear Tang Feiji’s voice, but now he couldn’t make out the sounds of his surroundings.
It was as if a script was forcibly being imprinted into his sea of consciousness, page by page.
Deep in his mind, the dialogue of those people became clearer and clearer.
"The appointed time is almost here."
The man’s voice was a suppressed calm, one could feel the underlying anxiety in his tone,
"There’s only the final month left, by all means, we must reach a consensus within this month."
"The child is about to be born... that place, only you can take him there," the woman’s voice seemed even more restless and anxious.
"So who is it after all, the best, and the worst, which one will you choose?"
"You know my choice, in my eyes, each of these seven children has the potential to fulfill the mission, but among them, only one possesses humanity. I will take him away!"
"Having played the villain for so long, do you think he will believe you? Don’t forget, to gain the trust of those six children, you’ve never shown him a kind face!"
"Trust me... you wouldn’t want our child to be born and... be with a heartless monster, would you?"
"Since you’ve made up your mind, I support you, I hope the decision you’re making is the right one, from now on, I’ll also convince myself."
"Thank you."
What the appointed time was, or what this couple’s plan was, all of this was still unknown.
But the weakest of the children finally had the opportunity to change his fate.
Tang Xian also didn’t know how those two people were going to take the child away.
Was their plan really flawless? Those children who seemed to have intelligence surpassing that of humans, did they really not notice anything?
Memory quickly unveiled this suspense.
The human couple in the memory finally understood the terror of the six children.
Tang Xian seemed to be able to feel the horror in the tone of the couple.
"Konst... Constantine, why are you here? Shouldn’t you be..."
"Shouldn’t I be in slumber like the rest? Teacher, do you think you’re smarter than me?"
Constantine’s tone carried a hint of challenge.
Tang Xian still couldn’t see what they looked like.
He could only hear their voices amidst the pitch-black consciousness.
He was certain that these conversations must have occurred while he was deeply asleep.
"No... no, that’s not it, listen to your teacher’s explanation!"
"It’s useless, you said it yourself, he’s a heartless monster. The plan has failed, and we have been negligent."
The man seemed to be prepared for death.
They had meticulously prepared their plan for a long time, to bring a spark of hope out of one of the world’s most secretive places.
But now, the plan had fallen apart, like humans trying to deceive a god, thinking they could furtively do something right under a deity’s nose without being discovered.
In the end, at the moment of fate, they saw a god with an unaffected expression, mocking how ridiculous it all was.
The emotions of the man and woman were clearly a lot more agitated.
Constantine, the most powerful and intelligent leader of the seven children, did something unexpected at this moment.
"Teacher, I’ve told you before, you didn’t have to pretend to be with us, to bully Seven. He also has his value."
"We have nothing left to say at this point."
"I suggest you calm down now. Although I’m still a child, it would be too easy for me to kill you in this place."

Seemingly detecting the implication in Constantine’s words, the woman tentatively asked,
"What do you want, Constantine..."
"I don’t want anything, staying here, controlling the world is really boring. The micro-level individual worlds have lots of changes, but the macro-level overall does not; an era won’t become interesting just because there are one or two interesting individuals.
I very much want to further understand humanity, so Teacher, how about we make a deal?"
"What deal?"
"Give Seven this, he will completely lose his memory, with only part of it returning when he comes into contact with us in the future.
When you were planning the ’escape’, I was also thinking about how to make this game more interesting.
Now, I have an answer."
Constantine seemed to hand something to the woman.
The couple looked at Constantine in shock, clueless.
Constantine explained,
"Don’t be so surprised, if you were in my position, you’d find this world very boring.
I don’t know your plan, even though I could, but that would be too uninteresting.
I think this emotional response, is a form of my evolution. I crave change, and only through constant exposure to variation can one adapt to it."
Constantine took a step forward, like a wandering poet, he spread his arms, his small frame making the gesture look both ridiculous and childishly adorable.
