"What did you say?"
Upon hearing Evan's words, Yalanis was momentarily stunned.
"I said, while I was being controlled by those strange things, I was able to perceive everything around me. But the reason I could do this is quite special, and it would be very difficult for others to replicate."
After a moment of silence, Evan slowly began to speak.
"You should know about the time when I went missing for a while, and was later saved by our youngest brother.
On that island, I was subjected to a secret technique called the Destiny Parasite by the enemies. Even after the enemies who were masquerading as me were eliminated and the spell lifted automatically, a very special independent personality emerged in my mind.
I once considered getting rid of it, but it has entwined with my main consciousness in a peculiar bond of fate. It is me, and I am it."
