i.

Nei speaks before Tendou Otome could object.

Right. Otome-chan is just like her father!

Otome’s father. Tendou Sadao.

Irresponsible and half-hearted, trying to flatter those stronger than him, and hurt those weaker than him. He’s a troublesome guy who causes nothing but annoyance

i’m not like my father

Tendou Otome looked at Nei angrily.

I wonder? I think that you two are similar

I.

I don’t think that they’re that similar as Nei says they are.

I sense evil in Tendou Sadao’s actions and words.

Tendou Sadao’s core is an evil that’s beyond saving.

However, Otome.

She’s an idiot, she doesn’t care about other people’s emotions, but.

She’s not evil.

It’s not a welcome favor but her thoughts of wanting to help Sonoko-san and the other friends are genuine.

And Sonoko-san, you also are similar to your father

We’ve met Sonoko-san’s father too.

You’re timid, dragged by the situation, and as a result, even if people close to you experience cruelty, you don’t complain at all

Sonoko-san’s father let Tendou Sadao and his group gang-rape his daughter.

He couldn’t save her.

He’s given up from the start as he’s powerless.

As expected, one will always have a similar personality as their parent

Nei speaks loudly.

It’s fate

Edie?

There’s this scandal in America, a wealthy couple adopted a boy as they have yet to make a baby. The couple doesn’t know anything about the child’s former parents. The orphanage didn’t tell them anything either. The couple gave the boy a good education. His family background had no problems. The couple raised the child with affection, and everyone in their community gave testimony to that. However Edie said.

That adopted boy entered high school, became violent, and committed crimes one after another. And in the end, he was arrested for killing a man

Murder?

Then, during the trial, the true parents of the adopted child have come to light. The father of the adopted child who committed murder is an atrocious murderer. And the child is similar, he had a violent personality The father of the murderer was also one?

The incident shows something heavy. Most of the time, they say that people commit violent crimes are affected by the environment the person grew up with. Where if a person is raised gently and in a good environment, they couldn’t become violent criminals O-Okay.

But in this case, the adopted child didn’t know that he’s a son of a murderer until he reached the trial for murder. The parent never met his son either. That means it’s not the environment that influenced the violent child He wasn’t aware that he’s a child of a murderer.

The wealthy couple that adopted the boy didn’t abuse him and raised the child with good intentions. Above all, there were other children in the same house. It’s common in America to adopt a child even though you have a child. Especially for the wealthy conservative Christians, most of them adopt a child. Then, the other children raised in that household were raised properly, they didn’t become violent criminals, that one adopted child is alone Edie said.

In short, that incident implies that people don’t become an atrocious criminal because of their environment, that the genes inside people where it can turn them antisocial

The adopted child had no background that can turn him into a criminal.

Despite that, he killed a person.

Then, the parent of the adopted child is a murderer.

There were inferences that if it’s the case, then one could inherit the genes of a murderer from their parent.

In most cases, people think that the child becomes similar to their parent because they lived together. The child sees what their parents do, copy it, and it becomes influential to them. Therefore, when they grow up, go to school, they meet adult models other than their parents. They will receive influence from various people other than their parents and their parent’s influence will go away Yeah, like, hearing a line from a sports athlete they respect.

Or receiving influence from their senior.

However, in the case of that adopted boy; he never had contact with his real parent and yet the child gradually turned violent, just like his father. It wasn’t the outside world that was the main cause but it was inside the adopted child himself, that’s how the reports conveyed it That’s why it’s genetic?

Is it true that inheriting the personality of the parents is genetic?

Therefore, Otome, Sonoko, it’s just inevitable that you took over your parent’s personality. Give it up. You can’t do anything about it anyway

Edie smiled.

i’m not like my father.

I.Father.

Tendou Otome and Sonoko-san pondered.

They’re comparing themselves with their parents in their minds.

But. I.

I don’t think that’s true

I will not accept it.

I don’t want to become like my parents. I’d never become like then even if I die

My mother ignored my existence ever since I was born.

My father abandoned me without care.

I will not become like them.

Even if it’s genetics, I will not have the same character as them. I will reject it adamantly. I am me. I’m different from them

Edie smiled.

Right, Darling. People can change to the people they want to be. If one faces their heart, fix the bad parts and want to change it, you can oppose your fate regardless of genetics and environment people change.

That’s right, I experienced that.

Then, the people around us all change in a good way to their will.

Right! What’s important is whether you have the resolve to fight your fate or not! Whoever it is

Nei said.

If you have the resolve to fight your fate, then you can adamantly reject your fate. Or you can continue resisting the fate you received. But, what’s important is the will to fight. Fighting spirit! Those who don’t have it will have fate drag them. The thoughts of I’m hopeless, or This is fate are all there to make you give in. And then, you regret later because you didn’t do anything. You’ll bear a grudge against yourself, and those people who didn’t come to save you. You’ll hate them all the time Nei said. Haiji-san.

I don’t want that. I don’t want to degrade that way

It’s okay, Haiji, you have the fighting spirit. You didn’t let fate drag you, you have the will to fight your fate

Right, Haiji-san.

She’s enthusiastic about opening up a new prospect of her strength.

The problem is.

I look at Tendou Otome and Tokuda Sonoko-san.

I see. Tendou Otome let the flow drag her

Tendou Otome looked back.

You say that it’s to save your friends and in the end, you followed your father’s orders to infiltrate Kouzuki house’ party, and when we went to the karaoke bar to save Sonoko-san and the girls, in the end, you had to follow the plan Edie gave you Yeah, that’s why I left Otome behind and went in ahead

Back then, Tendou Otome was supposed to infiltrate the karaoke bar from the back together with Edie.

However, Otome couldn’t catch up with Edie, and so she arrived at the scene late.

Otome doesn’t want to cooperate with the operation. You have no insight to keep your cool in the situation. You’ll react to the events at that moment and you can’t come up with anything creative. That’s why you don’t cooperate with others. That’s why I left you behind. Allies who can’t cooperate are much more dangerous than enemies. Well, above all, you’re late to make a devastating decision and act on it Edie makes it clear.

Without skill, talent, and personality, you can’t work in our world. Why don’t you continue your life where you show your strength on weak people?

That won’t go well all the time either. Those who approach imitation are worthless people. Decent people will see that Otome-chan isn’t the real deal and they’ll escape from Otome-chan immediately Oh, right. Just like the hopeless friends of Tendou Sadao
