For a long moment, we stayed like that, tangled together. Reality slowly seeped back in, bringing with it a dawning sense of... what? Shame? Regret? No. As I raised my head to look at him, I felt only a bone-deep satisfaction and a strange sense of power. I, Emilia Thatcher, perpetual wallflower, had just had mind-blowing sex with a mysterious stranger in a club restroom. And to laugh at it more, the men's. Take that, Mary.

"Transfer my power. Bind it to the Amerotha Forest." *

One was bound to get addicted to this kind of black power. "Isn't that Kuusu?" the guy's voice was full of fear and dread. I whirled around on the floor and grinned at them. They all recoiled when they saw the sheer display of my powers. "Run!" Aiden yelled but they didn't run enough. My powers grabbed them, tossed them, and tore their limbs off one by one. Their screams were music to my ears, their pains a source of energy for my powers. "You love me, Hera, please don't do this."

I didn't know how to react. Zavier quickly stepped forward and held my hand. "Did you hear everything? In that case, we'll drop our act. It's been tough putting on a show for so long. Don't you feel sorry for us, Alex? We feel so sad…" The numbers above their heads decreased steadily. 98%... 96%... 95%... But still, they shouldn't abuse the power bank! After all, overcharging would damage the power bank. As my consciousness gradually waned yet again, I looked at the three 100% battery levels and shed soundless tears in my heart.

Pukan exclaimed. “If that’s the only choice I got, then let’s do it,” Alfi said seriously. “Alfi!” Megumi is getting terrified even more. “Well, I don’t want to do so. Actually, there’s another way.” Pukan said. “What is it?” ‘The Full Power does have its limitations. There’s a thing called ‘menace", a mode beyond Full Power. Once you surpass the limitation and master this mode, you can even use any holy weapons with no worry. Yet, this one is a forbidden mode that no one of your ancestors ever used it.” Pukan warned him.

With tremendous power like a raging wave, it punched him hard. "A mere half-step Will puppet dares to act presumptuously in front of me?" "Power Shaking the Sky!" "Violent Fighting Soul Increase!" "Break for me!"

Mom had no difficulties though. Well, that can explain just how powerful she is. From reading, I learned that the power awakened in someone’s body can be turned into good or evil, depending on the power wielder. There were times when, like when my mom got angry with Rosine and shot out a dangerous rose vine, the power can kill someone. Power is generally manifested inside the body to strengthen the wellbeing, but if used wrongly, it can kill other people. Maybe that is why many power wielders of the four main powers (earth, fire, air, water) are in the military.

Another hearty laugh echoed inside Phil's head as he winced from the loud volume. "Okay boy. I will only tell you this once so you better listen. The sigil of cruelty is a supernatural power that is inside every people. Yes, you heard me right, every people, and even some rare precedence it could be found in some animals as well. Although normal people can't willfully activate the sigil, its existence of it is still there. Since you are a holder of a seed, the sigil of cruelty acts as another form of battery for you. The sigil expands your energy limit by another 100 points for now."

He also told him to make sure he was careful with me and that if I tapped into my full powers, I could rip apart everyone in the pack. All my life, I had only known myself to be an abomination. Shapeshifters were deeply hated in my pack. I had no knowledge that being a shapeshifter had it's perks. That night, as I lay down under my shed, I pondered so many thoughts about what I had just discovered. I had no idea I could be as powerful as my alpha described. It gave me a feeling of hope. I loathed everyone in my pack and I finally felt like this was a way I could gain my freedom.

“That I must be married for at least three consecutive months to gain any rights to contest the power structure. If not, it all goes to them permanently.” I stared at him. “So… I’m your key to taking back what’s yours.” “Yes.” My mind reeled. “But why me? You could’ve picked anyone. Someone from your world.” His eyes darkened. “The reason I chose you doesn’t concern you.” I froze at his curt response. Threading lightly, I asked, “And what’s your stepmother like?” “She hates weakness. She hates anything she can’t manipulate. And you… well, she obviously has nothing on you.”
