In this part, I'll tell you about what my family did to me, why I'm changing my last name, and why I got cruel.

People in my nation put a high value on marriage rituals and traditional family structures, yet my own family has made me into a ruthless tyrant and a careless individual But now that I'm fine, I'm starting to break away from my family. I'm no longer able to tolerate my family, and they're trying to manipulate me into becoming their victim.

The revelation of a global pandemic signaled the beginning of it all. As a student, I packed my belongings and locked myself in my house. They were attempting to force me to go to where they resided, and the aircraft were making limited flights. I couldn't go anyplace since a pandemic had been proclaimed, so I traveled to the city where they resided as if I were trying to do the impossible.Following this experience, my elder brother married during the epidemic. The number of attendees at the wedding was large. As a family member, I felt obligated to attend the wedding, and I ended up consuming too much wine because of my anxiety about the coronavirus risk.(The person she married is a doctor). Everyone at the wedding was aware of the danger

Two years after this incident, I graduated from university and was compelled to return to my hometown permanently. They gave my elder brother every advantage possible, including a job placement.

I utilized my own intellect to locate a job after graduation, selling my stuff as needed. At times, I worked with my elder brother. They now have children and have purchased another home. This is what caused the issues to arise. Over a family meal, I beat my father to the letter of the law by saying, "I'm grateful to you for raising me like a bastard."

Even though it is challenging, I now get rental income from a property.

They continue to attempt to fool me with mind tricks, but now that I have begun to radically modify everything, even my surname, I must enter and depart my nation, since I will be responsible for the education of some of my nephews. (I am writing this because I am going abroad for my master's degree.)

I do this because I want to start my own private school and have certain specific tasks to do.

Manual labor seems to be gaining value, particularly now that the digital world is no longer secure and artificial intelligence is on its way.

Children born in today's world spend too much time on social media and have no idea what real life is. I recently had drinking-related liabilities, which I paid off, and when speaking with the owner of the market, I found that an individual we loved had died from alcohol.

Alcohol and tobacco products certainly bring pleasure, but these sentiments arise from a person's inner emptiness. I learnt this at the age of 29.

Concerning the reasons for my conversion and new faith, I can state that the individuals in my original family did not respect my principles, and I do not respect theirs anymore.

Respect is important in relationships, and I know that I will experience a significant amount of grief as I work on rebuilding myself.In my society, there is trust for trust and friendship for friendship.

I'm not sure why, but I sense dread, and people approach me with prejudice at first glimpse. I've conducted several social experiments on this. I may be an aggressive person, but I've never physically harmed someone; nonetheless, others have always judged me. That's why I've always adored animals.

That is why I want to start a new life when I reach 30.I am aware of my own darkness, thus my creative side will always be profound.
