DO NOT VOTE! Thank you!

Sungjae's enthusiastic incessant chatter traveled over the phone again.

"Alright, alright, I got it." Jennie sighed helplessly in response.

Sungjae was practically as sticky as a plaster. If she didn't agree to it, she reckoned that he would call and pester her until she did.

"Ha ha! Sister Jen, that's a deal! You cannot stand me up! Bye-bye, Sister Jen!" Sungjae chortled happily.

"Hold on!"Jennie interjected hurriedly as Sungjae was about to hang up.

"Sister Jen, what's wrong?" Sungjae sounded puzzled.

"Autographed... limited edition... poster! Don't forget!" Jennie's reminder resounded aloud.

"Okay, alright! Don't worry, I'll steal it for you!" Sungjae was brimming with confidence.

She hung up after Sungjae promised.

This rascal...

Jennie held her phone in her hand in a reverie. If that abduction hadn't happened and her brother had still been around, he would have been around the same age as Sungjae.

At the thought of her brother, Jennie's eyes unconsciously gleamed like steel with fury.

If it hadn't been for those beasts...

One day, she swore that she would rip them to pieces to make them pay. She would make them regret this.

Jennie composed herself as she inhaled deeply. She cast away the billowing surges of emotions within her.

She had lost control more than once, and the consequences had been disastrous. She would wreak destructive chaos every time.

She could adjust and regulate her emotions better now, which had decreased the number of times she lost control.

Every time she recalled what had happened in the laboratory, it would still send a shiver down her spine even now. It had felt like centuries of purgatory and a real war zone. If she had a choice, she would rather forget all of it. However, the memories seemed to have been etched in her brain with a burning soldering iron.

She had been an intelligent girl as a child, so she had possessed the ability to comprehend things much faster than others. However, the laboratory incident had significantly amplified her abilities. Without that incident, she might not have become a world-class racer or possessed enhanced intelligence.

Unfortunately, at the same time, she had lost her brother. She would often lose control of herself. Those were painful memories that couldn't be erased.

After she had escaped, she had tried her best to hide the changes in her from everyone else. However, she wasn't sure if she could still be an ordinary person.

She was rather fearful that losing her consciousness at times was one of the side effects. It sounded more logical than being possessed by a spirit.

Still, she was relieved that she had been herself recently. She hoped that it would continue. She had no wish to be thrown into a mental asylum.

...

The next day, Jennie went to the competition venue that Sungjae had told her about. As usual, she wore a mask and a cap.

There were two types of racing competition venues.

A non-racing venue wasn't confined and was usually located outside the city. Rally races, cross-country races, and mountain races were usually held there.
