Chapter 440: Developing A Bronze Ability for Sanque

At that thought, Su Yang instructed Little Deeny, “Tell Sanque to get some rest and wait for me in the living room.”

Little Deeny nodded. “Yes, Master.”

A moment later, she said, “Master, Sanque has acknowledged.”

Su Yang nodded and said to Little Deeny, “Then let’s continue with our discussion. If I were to change the memories of an ordinary person, do you think they will notice?”

Little Deeny raised her hand and clenched it into a fist. Then, she said, “Master, it would depend on the kind of person whom you’ve altered their memories. At least, from the way I see it, as long as the other party doesn’t fall into 1 of the 3 types of people, there is no doubt that they will not be suspicious of anything.”

Su Yang asked, “Which 3 types?”

Little Deeny raised her fist and pointed with her index finger, forming a “1”. “1, the other party knows that there are people in this world who can actually change their memories.”

Su Yang pondered for a while. ‘That sounds about right. Now that I know that I can modify other people’s memories, I’ve also suspected whether my own memories have also been modified.’

Little Deeny stuck out her middle finger, and the “1” became a “2”. “2, the other party’s mind is extremely sharp, and has an extremely clear memory.”

Su Yang nodded. “That’s true, there are many geniuses in the world that have outstanding memory. If I were to modify their memory and did a bad job of it, the other party might suspect that someone has altered their memories.”

Little Deeny nodded and extended her ring finger. “3, The other party doesn’t have hyperthymesia.”

This time, Little Deeny explained it herself, “If the other party has hyperthymesia, then they will be the same as me and have extremely clear memories. In that case, they will easily realize that their memories have been tampered with.”

She paused for a moment. “However, as long as it’s not the first type of people, even if the other two types of people are suspicious, they would most likely only think that there’s something wrong with their memories and would rarely suspect that Master has done something to them.”

Su Yang nodded, but shook his head the next moment. “We can’t say that for sure. That’s because the memory modification of [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass] is different from the other special abilities. Most people wouldn’t be able to believe the existence of the other special abilities unless they’ve seen it with their own eyes. However, when it comes to memory modification, there are various news or records related to scientific research or superstition about that. Therefore, it’s also very easy for the second and third type of people to be suspicious of their memories being modified.”

Little Deeny thought about it and nodded. “That makes sense.”

Su Yang pondered for a moment. “So… I have to be very careful when using this function. Moreover, the most important thing is… I can’t tell anyone about it.”

Then, he snapped his fingers at Little Deeny. “Recover.”

Little Deeny’s eyes glazed over for a moment before she snapped back to her senses. She looked at Su Yang in shock andsaid, “Master, the memory that had been altered has been restored!”

Su Yang nodded. “That’s right. The [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass] has the ability to recover altered memories as well.”

This time, even Little Deeny exclaimed. “This new ability of the [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass] is really Godlike.”

Su Yang smiled.

The moment he smiled, suddenly… he felt a wave of negative emotions wash over him, and his mood plummeted. He recalled the memories of his grandparents’ deaths.

Su Yang was the first grandchild in the family and was loved by both his grandparents.

Su Yang had grown up with a strict upbringing. His parents did not allow him to eat snacks, hence it would always be his grandfather who secretly bought him candy.

Later on, while Su Yang was revising for his college entrance examination, his grandfather passed away in an accident. Su Yang was going through the critical period of his college entrance examination, hence his parents did not inform him about his grandfather’s death.

It was only when Su Yang returned home from his college entrance examination that he found out about his grandfather’s passing. Therefore, that incident had always been a painful memory in his heart.

However, that was not the end of it. On the night of Su Yang’s grandfather’s 90th day passing away, his grandmother had passed away silently in bed after she was done clearing up her late husband’s grave.

Everyone in the village had said that the two of them were deeply in love and Su Yang’s grandmother had gone to be with her husband since she missed him so much.

However, to Su Yang, the death of 2 of his most close relatives within just a few months was the greatest pain he had ever felt in his life.

The matter had been weighing on his mind for more than a year. Although time had healed his wounds, plus the fact that he had been living in Shanghai which was far away from his hometown, Su Yang would not be reminded of the past and would not think about it either. However, he did not expect to suddenly be reminded about it that day.

At that moment, Su Yang’s mood sank and his entire body was shrouded in gloom.

Little Deeny could sense that something was wrong with Su Yang. She stood up and supported Su Yang. She looked up and asked, “Master, are you alright?”

Su Yang looked at her and smiled bitterly. He shook his head. “I’m fine. I’ve just been reminded of my grandparents.”

The memory had been forcefully brought up into his mind all of a sudden and the scene was very clear and realistic. Therefore, Su Yang could not suppress his memory even if he wanted to.

Little Deeny could not help but ask, “But we were clearly chatting, so how could you possibly suddenly think of Grand Master and the others?”

Su Yang was the Master, Su Yang’s father would be referred to as Old Master and Su Yang’s grandfather would be referred to as Grand Master. So there was no problem with Little Deeny calling him that.

However, Little Deeny’s words stunned Su Yang. He could not help but recall the side effects of the new ability of [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass], 1 hour of unhappiness.

‘Could this be the side effect of the [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass]?’

Su Yang took out the [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass] from his pocket and realized that there was indeed a countdown timer on it, [58: 12].

‘Looks like the side effects of the [Memory Labyrinth Hourglass] has been activated after I deactivated the [Memory Editing] function.

‘No wonder I’m suddenly struck by these painful memories.

‘Initially, I thought that the negative emotions would make me unhappy like the other special items. However, this doesn’t seem like the case.

‘This negative effect is to dig out my painful memories and repeat them in my mind to make me unhappy.’

At the thought of this, Su Yang shook his head with a bitter smile. ‘I guess it’s impossible to defend myself against everything.’

He looked at Little Deeny and said, “Little Deeny, you should leave with Little Hong first, I would like to be alone. While you’re at it, ask Sanque to give me an hour.”

Even though Little Deeny was worried about Su Yang, she had always obeyed Su Yang’s every command. She looked at Su Yang worriedly and wanted to persuade him. However, when she saw Su Yang’s sorrowful gaze, she nodded and walked out with Little Hong.

When the door closed, Su Yang turned off the lights and the room fell into darkness. He sat back on his bed with his head lowered and his hands covering his face. His eyes slowly turned red…’Grandpa, Grandma, I really miss you guys…’

…

Outside the door, Little Deeny and Little Hong looked at each other and suddenly said in unison, “Hang on, isn’t that my room?”

Then, Little Deeny stopped moving. Little Hong looked at Little Deeny and mumbled, “So this is how it feels like to watch my main body through a doppelganger’s perspective? That’s so weird.”

After saying that, Little Deeny stretched lazily. “Since Master has taken over my room, I might as well give myself a break then. Oh, that’s right, I still need to tell Sanque.”

After mumbling to herself, she went downstairs with Little Hong.

After going downstairs, she left the villa and went to the backyard to chat with Qing Zhu.

Among the monsters, only Little Deeny and Qing Zhu were female. The other monsters were either male, genderless, gender unknown or too young. Hence, she only had Qing Zhu as her daily companion.

Little Hong went to Sanque’s room and told it about the situation. Sanque sat cross-legged on the bed and nodded. “Understood.”

An hour passed in the blink of an eye. When Little Deeny’s room door was opened, Su Yang had already returned to normal.

Other than wanting to personally experience the side effects of this power, he had actually had his memories flooding into his mind. Therefore, he did not want to suppress his emotions since he missed his grandparents.

Su Yang felt a lot more relaxed after venting his emotions.

After exiting Little Deeny’s room, Su Yang said to the air, “Little Deeny, ask Sanque to meet me at the living room.”

“Yes, Master.”

When he went downstairs, Sanque was already waiting in the living room. He still had the appearance of an old man. his face was filled with wrinkles and the vicissitudes of life. However, his beard and hair were gone, making him look even more ferocious.

He stood in the middle of the living room with his eyes closed. Just by standing there, he gave off the feeling that he could hold his own against ten thousand enemies.

‘In terms of aura alone, Sanque is definitely not inferior to Janet.

‘Furthermore, Sanque likes to hide his abilities, so no one knows how strong he is. Therefore, if they really fought, I think he could be comparable to Janet. After all, Sanque had 8 hands.’

Su Yang tossed that thought aside and sat on the sofa. He waved at him. “Have a seat.”

Sanque did not stand on ceremony and sat beside Su Yang.

Su Yang took out the [Bronze Ability Enhancement Voucher] from his pocket.

[Bronze Ability Enhancement Voucher] was a Bronze ranked item. When a Bronze ranked item was used to add points, it would not cause much damage to the surroundings. Therefore, Su Yang did not bring Sanque to the courtyard.

He held the [Bronze Ability Enhancement Voucher] in his hand and tore it open in front of Sanque without hesitation. Instantly, the space before him turned gray. Only Sanque was left in the room with an additional light icon, proving that Sanque could select it.

Su Yang clicked on the icon and a notification popped up in front of him. [Are you sure you want to give this monster the Bronze Power Enhancement Voucher?]

Su Yang clicked [Yes].

[Please choose the type of ability or a specific ability that you wish to obtain.]

Note: The success rate of the development of the chosen ability would be affected by the compatibility of the monster.

Su Yang said without hesitation, “Nutrition, potion related ability.”

After 10 seconds, a notification popped up in front of Su Yang again. [Development success rate is 92%. Confirm?]

‘92%? That high?

‘Truth be told, that’s a little beyond my imagination.

‘However, the higher the better! This way, it won’t fail easily.’

Hence, Su Yang clicked [Confirm] without hesitation.

The moment he clicked on [Confirm], the shattered [Bronze Ability Enhancement Voucher] in his hand exploded into specks of starlight and floated to Sanque.

The starlight dimmed, and Sanque sat like an old monk, not saying a word.

At the side, Su Yang was scratching his ears and cheeks anxiously. ‘Have I succeeded or not? Will I not receive a notification after using this thing?’

Just as Su Yang was panicking, Sanque slowly opened his eyes. His gaze was as calm as an ancient well.

Su Yang looked at him. “Has it succeeded?”

Sanque looked at Su Yang. 1 second, 2 seconds later. “Yes.”

At the same time, a notification popped up in Su Yang’s mind. [Bronze Ability has been successfully developed.]
