The Henry family.
After seeing off the admissions office of Chicago University, the Henry family trio returned to the house, looking at the admission letter on the table in silence.
After a long while, Mother Eowyn was the first to break the silence.
"That girl still has a conscience!"
Ben's father, Mark, had a deep expression and said, "She has a conscience, but she's also doing a good deed that might turn out badly!"
"What do you mean?" Eowyn asked in confusion. "Didn't we hear a while ago that all extraordinary academies would no longer accept students with useless talents? Now that a prestigious school like Chicago University has accepted our son, isn't that a good thing?"
Mark's expression turned even uglier.
Seeing that his wife still hadn't reacted, he said, "Let me ask you, Chicago University is a prestigious school. According to their admission standards, aren't all the students who can enter Chicago University students with very good talent abilities?"
"Yes! What's wrong with that…" Saying this, Eowyn's expression immediately changed.
She was already a smart person, and after her husband's reminder, she immediately realized the problem.
"Are you saying that after entering Chicago University, no one will be willing to team up with my son?"
Mark nodded, his face becoming more and more unsightly: "They are all the pride of heaven. They definitely won't be willing to team up with someone with a useless talent… When that time comes, this brat can only be forcibly teleported into the spirit realm to adventure alone!"
Eowyn's face instantly turned pale.
The spirit realm was no longer a secret.
She had also heard about the dangers of the spirit realm.
If they team up, it's good to have teammates supporting each other, but if you go in alone, the risk factor will definitely increase several times.
People need to sleep!
And some spirit realms take a long time.
In the spirit realm, eating, drinking, and relieving oneself all consume energy. Without teammates to help, how can one person withstand it?
What if you encounter something strange while sleeping?
If Ben going to the spirit realm before was a one-in-ten chance of survival, then now, it's definitely a one-way trip!
Thinking of this, Eowyn became anxious.
"Mark, what should we do!"
Mark didn't answer. He didn't know what to do either.
Eowyn seemed to have thought of something and immediately said: "Why don't we let that girl from the Song family team up with our son and be responsible for protecting our son! Our silly son even gave her the Flare-Flare Fruit; it's not too much to ask her to protect him, right?"
"What are you thinking?" Mark couldn't help but say: "Do you think everyone is as stupid as this brat?"
Ben: "…"
I feel offended.
"How could people be willing to give up their future to protect him?" Mark continued, "Even if the Song family girl is willing to do this, Uncle definitely won't agree!"
"Why not? That Flare-Flare Fruit originally belonged to my son," Eowyn was unconvinced. "He gave such a valuable thing to his daughter, why can't his daughter protect my son?"
"Just because he is Uncle, the power and resources he controls can easily shut our family up!"
Mark's words were hurtful, but they were the truth.
He sighed and said, "If we have to blame someone, we can only blame our son for being too naive, willingly giving away rare treasures without asking for anything in return!"
Hearing this, Eowyn couldn't hold back any longer and angrily walked to her son's side, lightly slapping his arm a few times.
"Why are you so stupid? You even believe in dreams? What are we going to do now…"
After only a few slaps, Eowyn burst into tears.
Seeing his mother like this, Ben felt a little uncomfortable.
Although he was very confident that in a month, even if he entered the spirit realm alone, with his attributes at that time, he could defeat all the strange monsters in the spirit realm!
But no one would believe him if he said that!
Maybe his parents would think he was out of his mind!
Ben could only remain silent.
He was very touched by his parents' concern, but also felt a little overwhelmed…
"Then let's not let our son go!" Eowyn wiped away her tears and said stubbornly, "What kind of broken Chicago University is that? We don't care about it, and we don't want the Song family's hypocrisy."
Mark shook his head. "He still has to go. There are many famous teachers in Chicago University, and they can provide many good things, perhaps allowing this silly boy to learn something and have a better chance of survival in the spirit realm."
"Even if he doesn't go to Chicago University, with his fused talent, he won't be able to find a teammate even if he spends money, and the result will still be the same."
After a pause, Mark glanced at the time and suddenly said: "Not only does he have to go, but he has to leave now!"
He turned his gaze to Ben and said in a stern tone: "Brat, you buy a ticket now, buy a ticket for tonight, and then go pack your things. I'll take you to the train station later."
"No!" Eowyn immediately disagreed. "Why are you rushing my son away? Son, don't listen to him, stay home and spend a few days with me, and go to school on the last day!"
She was afraid that after this separation, she would never see her son again…
Mark looked at his wife's reluctant and desperate gaze, felt a pain in his heart, but still gritted his teeth and said: "You know Grandpa's temper, when he comes back from the hospital, this brat will inevitably suffer a beating. Do you want to see him being punished?"
Only then did Eowyn understand her husband's intention.
She wasn't that stupid.
It was just that she was too worried today, which completely messed up her composure, and she couldn't use her usual wisdom at all.
"Son! Your life is so hard…"
Eowyn hugged Ben and cried loudly.
Mom!
I don't think my life is hard…
Looking at his mother's sad appearance, Ben felt a pang in his heart, filled with guilt.
Speaking of which, the current situation was all created by him.
"Mom, don't worry! Your son will be fine, I promise, I will definitely come back safely!"
He said in a deep voice.
He hadn't even been transported here for a full day, but he really liked his parents!
Mark didn't say anything more, patted Ben's shoulder, and drove away.
Watching his father leave, Ben then passed through security and entered the station.
There was still almost half an hour before departure.
He casually found a seat and sat down, then took out his phone and went online to pass the time.
Smartphones naturally also exist in this world, and are even more advanced than those on Earth.
Ben was currently using a mainstream smartphone on the market, which had good performance and didn't lag at all when surfing the Internet.
When he opened the news webpage, his eyes immediately narrowed!
"Is it true love? Even the Flare-Flare Fruit can be given away willingly."
