The big old succubus, still in an illusion, was screaming.
PSI looked at his hands and his body. Scanning through his body, he found it odd that his hands had gained some weight and veins.
He steps back and starts crisscross jumps. He stretched his left leg and continued with his right. After a few minutes, he opened the door and went out.
PSI knew that the succubus had plans for him. Such a young and youthful body like his would be a great sacrifice for demons and monsters. There's so much more they can do if they got the body.
That's why when an anonymous customer comes in, the butler would come, trying to use his magic on the customer to see the consequence of killing the customer.
That's why places like this are dangerous for civilians. PSI walks through the underground until he sees the shadow of an evil entity standing at the next turn.
PSI said with a light tone, "No need for such an entrance. I already know, 'butler'?"
Yon felt the pressure as he just saw what was going on.
'PSI is really a wise person to think such a friendly butler would actually be demonic like this?'
The butler said, standing firm, "How did you resist the lust? Who are you? I tried to get a reading about you, and all I saw was a weak and fragile reading. You are really interesting. Tell me, what did you do to our succubus? Did you kill her or what?"
PSI, "Go ahead and check it yourself. Why ask me?"
The butler said, "Okay, answer me this question. Is it true that you're like a cup of water... fits anyway and everywhere? But I wonder, why be a cup of water? My readings aren't getting through you. No, they are, actually. You are truly useless?"
PSI kept walking straight to him and said, "Useless, you say? That might be true, but only from your perspective?"
The butler took off his vest and started unbuttoning his white shirt.
"Not only in my perspective, but in your memories' perspective. My reading is majestic, and they never miss a point. You are considered useless by everyone around you. Am I right or not?"
PSI stepped closer and stood in front of the butler, who was dead serious about killing him.
PSI raised his hand slowly, and as soon as he tapped the butler, the butler flashed backward and sprinted forward with a powerful punch. PSI reacted quickly and got punched in the face.
He fell backward, still having the uncanny look in his eyes.
The butler laughed.
"Haha... it was easy as fuck, haha... so you actually were trying to talk your way out, haha..."
PSI acted as if he didn't hear a single thing the butler was saying.
"What does failure mean for you? What does useless mean for you?"
The butler stopped laughing. His eyes changed into burning flames.
"What kind of question is that? Haha, can't you even read the room? You are a failure. You are useless. Look at you, how pathetic. You're making me angry..."
The butler had his fists squished and his lips twisted. He straightened his hand, aiming at PSI's head, and said,
"Die, what a useless kid."
A drop of blood was making a small cube right in front of the butler's finger. After it became a perfect cube, he smoothed it into a long blood needle.
"Dad, what is he doing on the ground?"
Right before he shot it, he heard a recognizable voice. It was his complete weakness.
PSI went silent, watching his new masterpiece.
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

PSI, "Yon, you looking, right? You see how weak the mind is? Not me, not you, not even high-level awakeners can kill this butler, but that's only if we fight him. If it was a false illusion, we would have died right on the spot, but this was a cursed illusion."
Yon, "It's powerful, honestly, but what's happening? Why is he not doing anything?"
PSI, "Just watch."
The butler knelt on the ground and turned around, shivering in fear. As soon as he saw his kid, he said,
"How? You're dead. No, this is not an illusion. No, this cannot be!"
The butler slowly faded into an illusion that was real due to the power of a curse god's one and only follower, Yon.
The powerful PSI stood right before the sleeping body of the butler. He raised his hand and said,
"Energy absorb..."
Yon kept learning for now as PSI sucked the lustful energies of the butler, and they went out.
Yon would increase physical abilities, yet he would need more to do with his illusions. Most of his skills are not for killing... except one, which kills the enemy by sucking the last drop of energy in their body using a lustful illusion.
PSI empowered himself by it. At this point, PSI and Yon are one, yet separate. Eyes like the butler's are never gonna figure out they are two different souls. That's why, even though the unknown was inside Yon's body, the butler still called them useless.
Of course, all that has to go when it comes to control and power. It's PSI's job to make sure Yon has his dreams done.
That's why PSI only cares about empowering him and getting revenge for him, but not actually teaching him. As to why, when PSI disappears, no one will remember he existed in that world, not even the body owner, Yon. That's why all the skills, abilities, and knowledge of the specific world would be part of Yon's.
It's like he left part of himself merged with the body owner.
PSI turned around and walked out, silent, like nothing ever happened. He went out straight to the bus station.
Near the bus station, he saw classmates walking around the city. They were talking to each other about how it's been a long time since they met.
True, after several things had happened in the city that led to the closing of the academies, Yon remembered and said,
"Yo, I got to go to school tomorrow."
PSI walked inside the bus, sat down, and said,
"So what?"
Yon said,
"I mean, if you don't know, I gotta go to school. About the text, I'm really scared, bro. What the hell should I do?"
PSI,
"If you don't wanna go, no one would force you. Not that it matters. You can stay here, chill at home. We can at least last a couple of weeks with the money you have in savings until we make more money."
Yon,
"But I wanna go to school... I really wanna go to school like this. It's one of the best customs, and I already changed who I am, so yep. And one more thing, I don't wanna be disrespected again. I wanna live a new life, a new one, bro."
PSI,
"Cool, then we will go."
Yon,
"Wait, what... like cool... cool like how?"
PSI,
"We will go to school, and we will definitely get disrespected, but we will handle it kinda well, and then they will find a new target and leave us alone. By the way, what's your type? Is there anyone that you like?"
Yon,
"Wait, what... Me? No, no, I don't have anyone."
PSI,
"So you like every girl you see since you won't get them?"
Yon,
"Yep, you read that well."
PSI,
"Anyway, when is the bus stopping next, bro?"
Yon,
"At the bar. You remember the bar you went alone? It will stop there."
PSI,
"Ohh, we're already here then..."
PSI was relaxed, looking normal, talking to Yon with his thoughts. The bus stopped to pick more passengers at the next bus station.
He closed his phone and wore his cap, carefully checking everyone coming in.
Yon already knows he needs to be ready to spot people just like PSI.
Yon,
"Holy cow!! Those two."
PSI looked at the passengers getting in, and only two girls were walking toward them. Everyone else were elderly people.
PSI then realized one of the girls was the one who saw him at the bar.
PSI,
"Yon, the girl on the left is the one who saw me at the bar?"
Yon,
"Yeah, well... She's... She's my ex..."
