Chapter 524: Clarice's trust, come on, delete my memory! (First update, please subscribe!)

~6 min read 1,142 words

Clarice looked up at Su Quan in surprise: "My ability seems to have become stronger... is it because of the Mirror Dimension?"

Su Quan smiled and shook his head: "It has nothing to do with the environment."

It wasn't the Mirror Dimension's reason, so that meant... it was him?

Clarice looked at him in confusion and asked curiously: "Did you do something?"

Su Quan nodded: "I amplified your mutant ability."

Amplified?

You can amplify other people's abilities?

Clarice widened her eyes in surprise.

"I can not only amplify abilities, but also weaken them, and even..."

Su Quan withdrew the amplification aura from Clarice and replaced it with a weakening aura.

In an instant, the portal that had been easy to open became incredibly heavy. Even with all her might, Clarice could only barely maintain the portal, powerless to stop it from getting smaller and smaller.

Whether it was the amplification effect or the weakening effect, both were very obvious!

However, the thing that shocked Clarice was yet to come.

Su Quan approached Clarice, came behind her, and grabbed her hands from behind.

"Hum!"

The portal disappeared instantly.

Clarice stared blankly at Su Quan's hands, saying in disbelief: "I can't use my ability."

"I can eliminate mutant abilities!"

Su Quan held her hands and brought her in front of a mirror. Clarice looked at herself in the mirror in confusion and soon let out an exclamation.

The purple marks on her face had disappeared, and her emerald green eyes had also turned into normal black.

It really... was eliminated!

It wasn't just eliminating the mutant ability; it was more like eliminating the mutant gene!

Eliminating the mutant gene was no small matter; this was a major event that could affect the entire mutant race!

To put it exaggeratedly, Su Quan held the life and death of the mutant race in his hands!

If he were captured by the Sentinel Services and they studied a way to eliminate mutants from him, then mutants could really go extinct!

The more Clarice thought about it, the more possible it seemed. There was no joy in her heart about returning to normal, only worry for Su Quan.

She turned around, grabbed Su Quan back, and asked seriously: "You haven't told anyone else that you can eliminate mutant genes, have you?"

Su Quan shook his head: "In this world, besides me, you are the only one who knows!"

"Phew..." Clarice breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good! You must remember, you must never tell anyone else about this, and you must never use it in front of others!"

If humans or mutants with ulterior motives knew that Su Quan could actually eliminate mutant genes, even if Su Quan was very strong—even ridiculously strong—he wouldn't have a peaceful day.

It concerned life and death, the survival of the race, and the shifting situation of the world—

No one, no force, and no race would give up because of Su Quan's strength!

"It doesn't matter. Even if people know, I won't be in danger."

"My strength is beyond your imagination."

Clarice grabbed Su Quan's hand tightly: "Be serious, don't joke around. In any case, listen to me: no matter who it is, no matter the situation, you cannot say it, and you cannot use this ability, understand?"

Su Quan smiled and nodded: "Understood."

Understanding was one thing, but whether he would listen was another.

Clarice said in a deep voice: "No, I'm still worried! You shouldn't have told me this. What if I get caught? What if I let it slip? What if a telepath discovers my memory?"

"The safest way is to delete my memory. Do... do you have telepathic abilities?"

"Yes."

"You, you really have them?"

"Really?"

"Oh my god, just how many abilities do you have? I've never seen a mutant like you!"

Clarice was so amazed she didn't know what to say, but her heart relaxed again.

"Come on, delete my memory about this."

Clarice stepped back and said seriously.

Su Quan raised an eyebrow: "You trust me that much? Aren't you afraid I'll do something to your memory?"

Clarice asked: "Would you?"

Su Quan shrugged: "Hard to say. After all, I'm not a good person. As long as it's beneficial to me, I'll definitely do it."

"What would you do?"

"Who knows? Maybe I'd make you fall in love with me?" Su Quan said deliberately.

Clarice looked at him deeply. If that were the case, you wouldn't need to modify my memory at all.

"Come on."

Whoa, you really dare!

Looking at Clarice's unhesitating appearance, Su Quan was truly touched...

How to put it, he felt he hadn't reached the point where Clarice could trust him this much; after all, he hadn't done anything special for her.

And...

Even with a foundation of trust, not everyone could accept letting others touch their brain and their memories.

Privacy aside, this was equivalent to handing over one's entire past and future to the other person, betting on their character.

Once the bet was lost, 'oneself' might be gone!

Su Quan's expression became serious: "I'll ask you one more time, are you sure?"

"I'm sure!" Clarice urged: "Are you still a man? Don't be so wishy-washy, hurry up, come on."

"Alright."

"Hum!"

Telepathic ability was released, flooding into Clarice's mind.

Clarice slowly closed her eyes, and segments of memory flashed uncontrollably through her mind. She thought these were the memories about to be deleted.

Did I trust the wrong person?

What she asked Su Quan to delete was the memory about eliminating the mutant gene, but the memories that surfaced were not just those; they included her entire life from childhood to the present.

Was he going to delete all her memories?

Clarice thought this, but suddenly found that memory fragments were no longer emerging. It seemed... it was over?

She opened her eyes and looked at Su Quan blankly.

Su Quan pinched her chin and said with a smile: "What? You really thought I would betray your trust in me? You don't even think about it: since I have telepathic abilities, would I not know what you're thinking?"

"Since I already knew, why go through the trouble of modifying your memory?"

Clarice's face turned red with embarrassment. She wasn't embarrassed because she had misunderstood Su Quan, but because her little thoughts had been known by Su Quan.

Even with her heels, she could think of why modifying the memory was a redundant act, because... whether it was modified or not, it was the same!

"Wait... you didn't delete the memory of me knowing about eliminating the mutant gene?" Clarice discovered she still remembered it.

Su Quan smiled and shook his head: "I built a psychic barrier in your brain. Unless their telepathic ability is stronger than mine, no telepath can control you or pry into your memories."
