Chapter 383 Unexpected Revelation
Doctor Jerry's expression grew more serious.
"Yes, I checked the blood sample you gave me," he responded.
"So? Did you find anything wrong with it?" she asked, her curiosity evident.
Jerry adjusted his glasses and leaned in closer, his facial expression shifting, "I think we should talk in my office, Miss Lilith,"
Lilith was shocked by his proposal. This place was filled with people she trusted, so he must have discovered something significant. Her curiosity intensified as she wondered what he had really found.
She followed him into his office, a small room packed with shelves of scientific journals and a cluttered desk.
He closed the door behind them and motioned for her to sit.
As Lilith settled in, he began to pace around the room before finally sitting in his chair.
"I've been analyzing the blood sample you gave me," he said, his voice low. "What I found is… unusual."
"Unusual? What do you mean? Isn't she just a Divergent?" Lilith asked, raising an eyebrow.
"That's what I thought at first, but after more tests, I found something really interesting," he said, leaning forward. "Her DNA has no connection to demons at all."
Lilith's eyes widened in surprise. "No connection to demons?" she repeated, her voice skeptical.
"Are you saying she isn't what we thought she was?"
Jerry took a deep breath, gathering his thoughts. "Let me break it down for you, Miss Lilith," he began.
"Human DNA is made up of sequences called genes that determine traits like eye color or whether we're prone to certain diseases. While everyone's DNA is unique, it follows a similar structure. Basically, it's like a blueprint that tells our bodies how to grow and work."
He paused, then continued. "Demon DNA, on the other hand, is quite different. It has sequences that humans don't have. These sequences affect their physical traits and abilities, giving demons their unique powers. Demon DNA also tends to include more aggressive and adaptive traits, helping them survive and evolve quickly in their own environments."
Lilith nodded, following along.
"Divergent DNA is a mix of human and demon genetic material. It usually shows a combination of both human and demonic traits. This hybrid DNA gives Divergents enhanced strength and speed by blending aspects of both species. However, they have more human DNA than demon DNA. Even so, Divergent remains closely linked to its demonic origins."
He looked at Lilith, who was absorbing the information.

"So, what's wrong with her DNA?" she inquired.
"What's unusual about the sample we tested is that it has none of the demonic sequences we expected, and it doesn't match any DNA in public records."
Lilith frowned, considering the implications. "So, if her DNA doesn't match any known type, she's something entirely new?"
"Not entirely new," he shook his head.
"What do you mean?" Lilith asked, her curiosity growing.
Jerry pulled out a tablet and tapped a few commands. On the screen, DNA simulations appeared, showing intricate patterns and structures.
"I stole this copy when I was working with BioGen," he said. "Look here—there's a 60% similarity between her DNA and this sample."
"So where did you get this sample?" she asked.
The lead researcher took a deep breath. "A meta-human DNA,"
Lilith was momentarily stunned by the revelation; she hadn't expected such a twist.
"A meta-human? Are you sure" she repeated with an skeptical tone.
"Yes," Jerry replied with confidence, "but she's different. She seems to be half human and half meta-human, which is odd because meta-humans can't reproduce. Their genetic traits are fixed and don't mix with other DNA in a way that allows for reproduction."
"Wait... If she's a meta-human, then she should have some kind of weird ability, right?" she pointed out.
"Normally, that should be the case, but since she's not a full meta-human, she might not be able to manifest abilities. Or maybe she's using one passively, but it's too weak to notice. Meta-humans are hard to understand; even the pioneers of that research couldn't fully explain how their powers work."
Lilith settled back into her seat, her mind racing. 'If this is true,' she muttered to herself, 'then maybe this is why that heartless monster was drawn to her.'
She had been wondering how Cyril had managed to pull it off, as it was unbelievable. In terms of beauty alone, Lilith was far superior, and yet Reign hadn't given her a second glance.
This was real life, not some drama where a ruthless demon would suddenly fall in love as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
"Can meta-humans have the ability to make others fall for them?" she asked, wanting to be certain. If anyone here knew more about meta-humans, it was him.
"Possibly. I've read some research papers about meta-human powers, and they vary too much to be predictable."
'I can't believe it,' Lilith let out a small chuckle.
She couldn't believe she had been taking care of such a valuable research material.
However, a frightening image flashed in her mind, making her reconsider. 'No, if I do something to her, that guy would kill me,' she thought.
'Should I tell him this information?' she pondered for a moment. 'Or maybe I can use her to my advantage?'
Reign was like a ticking bomb, and if she was honest, there was nothing she could do about him with her current strength.
It would be a different story if she could predict his moves, but most of the time, he just let his ruthless and sadistic nature take over.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
But what if she could control him? If she could, she'd have a very powerful pawn at her disposal.
"Is there a way to make her ability stronger?" she asked, an idea forming in her mind.
Jerry paused for a moment. "There is a way, but I'm not sure how effective it is, as it was mostly theoretical back then. It might also make her powers uncontrollable,"
"Don't worry, I just want to know if it's really possible. Just tell me how, and I'll decide from there," she responded, her lips curling into a cunning smile.
