The Author's POV
Chapter 686
"Uwa! Uwa!"
A newborn infant's cries reverberated in the background as two gentle hands wrapped around the small frame of its body in an attempt to soothe its cries.
"Hush, Kevin, don't cry. Mommy's with you."
'Is this what it feels like to be a newborn human?'
Kevin's crimson eyes stared at his two small hands that were reaching out, grasping the air above him for some unknown reason.
In the instant that Kevin was born, he already knew his mission.
From the moment he felt the gentle embrace of his mother's warm hands as she wrapped them around his body and surrounded him with warmth, he was aware of the purpose behind his existence as well as the mission that he had to complete.
'Defeat Jezebeth.'
The cancer that the records were afraid of. The one singular entity that was disrupting the balance of the universe.
…That was his sole and only purpose for existing.
"Why is his hair white, and why are his eyes red?"
Kevin, who had just been born, heard his parents' shocked and bewildered voices as they drifted gently in and out of his field of hearing.
When he looked up, he saw the faces of two people, one male and one female, looking down at him with curiosity.
'These must be the people who have birthed me.'
Kevin pondered as he observed the two humans, who were staring at him with confused expressions. They had relatively delicate facial features, but their clothing appeared unremarkable, and they appeared somewhat filthy.
From what Kevin could gather, their names were Margaret and Johnathan. At least, that was what they seemed to call each other.
In spite of their filthy appearances, they had friendly expressions, and the sight of their smiles was not displeasing to the eyes. At least to Kevin, but he didn't seem to care all that much about it.
In his mind, these were the two beings that would help him gain a foothold in this world before he could finally mature and leave on his own.
He didn't have any particular attachment to them.
"The DNA test says that it is our child; maybe he was just born with some strange illness or something along those lines? ...I'm not entirely sure."
The man on the left, who appeared to be his father, was seen tenderly caressing the woman, who was described as having brown eyes and long black hair.
Her features were soft, and Kevin couldn't quite put his finger on what it was that made her smile so compelling.
Nor did he care to understand.
"But if there is one thing that I'm sure about..."
As Kevin's father leaned in to give him a kiss on the cheek, the top of Kevin's head dampened.
"...it's that he's our son."

"I'm sure it was an accident. He definitely didn't do it on purpose."
Kevin stood by and watched as his mother pleaded in front of three people.
The subject of everyone's attention right now was a young child who stood in the middle of the other two adults and appeared to have tears forming in his eyes.
"An accident?"
A round woman with curly yellow hair and an angry and repulsed expression on her face pointed an accusatory finger at her young child while raising her voice.
"How are you going to explain this?"
Her finger touched the child's eye, which was currently black.
"Your delinquent child punched my child for no apparent reason! How can you explain to me the black eye on his face?"
"That..."
Margeret looked at the eye for a moment, and she turned to look at Kevin. Biting her lips, she asked.
"Kevin, did you do this?"
"..."
Kevin remained silent and simply looked at her the whole time.
He had never actually punched the child in the first place. It was another bigger kid, but the victim decided to lie and shift the blame for the attack onto Kevin out of fear for the bigger kid.
Kevin could tell right away that saying anything would be pointless; it would probably go to death's ears.
The people here weren't looking for the real culprit but for someone to blame the situation to.
With Kevin being the preferred target due to his background.
In addition, because this establishment was in a rather poor condition, there were no cameras to provide evidence to support his claim.
Talking was a waste of energy.
"See, your child isn't even denying it!"
The woman yelled and pointed angrily at Margaret, whose face suddenly turned pale.
"He...he didn't even say anything. How can you just―"
"Oh, stop it! We both know your autistic son did it!"
As soon as the word "autistic" was mentioned, Margaret's face immediately froze, and she began to bite her lips more forcefully while murmuring in a voice that was only audible enough for Kevin to hear.
