Shane wanted his world to become a paradise for his tamed beasts, and it would be hidden inside him, which led him to name his world 'Hidden Paradise'.
Seeing this name, his aunt could only smile at Shane's choice, thinking that he was a free spirit, a stark contrast to his father who was an old fogey.
However, this attitude was what Kia liked in Shane and it frustrated her to see how John treated his only son, imprisoning him and withholding all the ways to learn what freedom or friends really were.
Only when she told him all kinds of stories, the young Shane could visualize how it might be to act however he wanted and be free from all kinds of responsibilities that suffocated him.
Shane's attitude hadn't changed much but Kia noticed that he was much happier than before because he smiled more.
She had only met him several hours ago, and Shane had already smiled more than over the last 16 years since she knew him.
This caused her to be sad on one side and overjoyed on the other side and Kia made a promise to herself to never allow John to imprison Shane ever again, even if she had to fight against him.
It was not a secret anymore that Shane had to be trained to become the next ruler over mankind, and seeing how Shane behaved after being freed from his father, only showed her that they had also made mistakes.
In the end, they needed to nurture strong youths to create mankinds' next leader with a good personality, who cared about all lives and not just those who were strong.
This might have been the beginning of their wrong mindset which they inculcated in Shane without caring about his own thoughts, feelings, or desires.
Thinking about this, Kia could hardly suppress her tears as they ran down her cheeks.
Hiding behind Shane, she was glad that he couldn't see her, and the guilt within her intensified, solely by sensing the happiness that radiated from him.
'What have we done?' Memories of the last 16 years flooded her mind, where she could see Shane being forced to study several hours every day, practice all kinds of martial art techniques and learn how to handle all weapons.
There was no joy, freetime, or even the tiniest bit of happiness around him and the servants acted carefully around him, not daring to do anything in fear of receiving harsh treatment from his father or someone around him.
Remembering the fear in their eyes as they looked to the young Shane who couldn't comprehend what was going on, Kia could only hold her trembling hand before her mouth when she finally remembered Shane's eyes that seemed extremely dull at some times when he sustained injuries in his combat classes.
Only when he heard stories about freedom and adventures, his eyes seemed to lit up.
Her red and teary eyes were now filled with determination as she took one step back before opening her own system.
Looking for her group chat with the others, she simply wrote.
