Laura was desperately trying to avoid the two since morning. She didn't know how to face them. After watching their intimacy that disregarded morality she felt compelled to scold them but the fact that she would also expose her peeking by doing it made her feel complex.
She truly thought she would keep avoiding the two till they left for the academy but unfortunately for her Blue called her into his room saying that Karla had something to talk about and was waiting there for her.
Her heart started beating frantically from panic as she remembered their conversation before their indulgence.
"Does she want to reveal her relationship with him today? What happened to not finding courage to tell me!? Did she become brave enough in just a single night? But I am not ready to tear apart all pretenses like this. I need some time, damn it."
She screamed in her mind as she followed behind him and entered his room. She saw Karla sitting on a chair by the table. It sure was a refreshing scene considering she had to witness her carnal desires being unleashed on the bed just last night.
She waited for her to say something but Karla just sat there while staring at her. Laura felt that something was wrong as her instinctive feeling kicked in.
"What is it?"
She asked impatiently but was ignored as she noticed that Karla's eyes went wide all of a sudden while her expression became one of utter shock. Her face blushed profusely and she slowly lowered her head as if ashamed of something.
Laura looked at her strangely. She then asked him in a baffled tone,
"What is going on with her?"
He showed her a helpless smile as he shrugged to reply that he also didn't know. At that moment Karla suddenly asked her in a trembling voice while keeping her face lowered,
"L-last night… you saw everything, didn't you?"
Laura jolted from surprise and had an expression as if she was a thief that just got caught red handed. She almost blurted out that she didn't but she forced herself to keep calm. There's no way they would have noticed her when they were so engrossed in pleasure.
"... What do you mean? I don't know what you're talking about."
Karla raised her head and looked at her with a guilty expression. She then revealed how she was certain of it.
Laura received another bout of shock.
°°°°
Blue went to his room after breakfast. Last night he made sure to give Laura a "good show" and surprisingly her patience was enough to tolerate all that he did to her daughter. He now could choose the fourth set of the plan to deal with her.
Or that was the case until Karla revealed something very interesting today.
He was only able to show Laura the part till her headjob but last night he obviously went all the way. He went for three rounds till Karla showed signs of exhaustion. Though as an awakened human she should have had more stamina but it was still only her second time so he showed her mercy and sent her away.
Later, Karla found him after breakfast and told him her new perception,
"Blue, I have been meaning to tell you but I don't know if I am just being stupid. Do you also see some symbols above other's heads?"
He raised an eyebrow and looked at her with keen interest. He thought inwardly that he was about to uncover some more secrets of this family nurtured by Blessed Womb physique.
"No. I don't see any symbols. Did Miss Clara never mention such occurrences?"
"So that's the case. It seems these symbols are only something I could see. When big sister revealed how it felt and what she saw after becoming awakened she never said anything about symbols. I first thought it was a skill from my class but information on skill usage never had anything about these symbols either."
"Well, if that is the case then it truly might be something only you have. Have you tried to interact with those symbols?"
"No, I don't know what to do with this. They just float above the head and that's it. Unlike the information I received about the class skills there's nothing about it."
Blue had a contemplative expression on his face as he laughed inwardly,

"Hehe, sure enough this girl didn't disappoint. Did not receive information but still sees mysterious symbols. Isn't this a bit similar to my previous case? I received the information about bloodline abilities just like any other abyss spawn would but my Premonition innate ability was left unnoticed. I only figured that I had an "instinct" that helped me in crisis or led me to treasures at the most vital moment. Later through the system I found the truth behind it. Going by that logic, Karla's case also points towards an innate ability. Now I have to figure out how to guide her to reveal more to me."
He then made an expression as if he remembered something and asked her,
"By the way, did you ask Miss Clara about it?"
"I haven't yet. These two days were quite hectic. I was planning on doing it afterwards though."
"It's good then. I think you shouldn't casually reveal it to her on the phone. When we go to the academy you should have a proper conversation with her then."
"Eh, why... oh! Could it be that calls are being tracked?"
"Smart. I do have this suspicion. Think for a second, both your elder brother and sister would always refrain from mentioning any details about the academy and on top of that why wouldn't they let their students return home even once for those five years? There are too many questions with not enough answers. This academy is really suspicious. We should exercise caution."
Karla had an enlightened look and nodded her head continuously.
"You are right. I will be careful in the future. So do you have any ideas? How do I interact with this?"
"Hmm, first describe it to me. What do those symbols look like?"
Karla only thought for a moment before her expression became strange as she replied,
"They look like the rewind button and forward button on the tv remote."
"... Then try to press the forward button?"
Blue said indecisively as even he was surprised at the similarities. Karla raised her hand over his head and tried pressing something in the air. She shook her head at its zero reaction.
"So it doesn't work like that. Why not think in your mind that you're pressing that button? Alright, focus and do that."
Karla nodded her head and did as he was told. This time her eyebrows furrowed as she seemed to have gotten the answer.
"I think it will work this time. These symbols seemed to be asking how much forward I want to see."
"Wait, will this show you what I will do in the future?"
"Ah, maybe? It just gave me the vague feeling that I need to specify the total time after pressing the forward button. There wasn't any additional information."
"Okay, then set it to ten minutes from now."
He said impassively while he was shocked inside.
"To think it was time element related. Her innate ability seemed to have no connection with the attribute affinity she had. Speaking of which, my Premonition ability seemed to be a mixture of fate and luck element while my attribute was Frost Flame, a variant of ice and fire. There's really no pattern to it."
He was also inwardly alarmed as he thought about the possibility of how she might just rewind time to see his scheming actions.
Thankfully he made some arrangements.
"Huh, I had a feeling it would work but it seemed to have failed. It tried to produce a tv screen above the symbols but stopped midway and returned to its previous state."
The "Primordial Auditor" alerted him in his mind while giving the information of what effect the foreign aether will have on him and so he chose the nullification service to get rid of the effect on his soul. Thus her ability failed to act.
"Hmm, that's strange. Maybe it was because of the attribute I awakened? I have also experienced some strange stuff after awakening. I will tell you about that later, for now let's figure out these symbols. Since the forward button didn't work, then what about the rewind button?"
"Wait, let me try."
Karla focused again with a hopeful expression and pressed the rewind button in her mind while setting the time to ten minutes again. A tv screen appeared above the symbols successfully and she saw from his perspective what he had been doing for the past ten minutes.
Of course, Blue was alerted again and the effects information also got relayed to him. He chose the modification service and modified it by the keywords of "not scheming", "passing time" and "resting". So what Karla saw on the screen was the modified version of what truly happened.
While watching the screen she started feeling bored since nothing interesting was happening so she complained to him about it. He gave her another suggestion,
"Why not try fast forwarding, pausing, rewinding and zooming the video?"
Sure enough, she was able to emulate it. After watching the ten minute scene the tv screen disappeared and symbols were back to their previous state.
"Thank you, Blue. Finally I could rest easy."
"No problem. Why don't you name this skill for now?"
"Alright, its name will be… Time Remote skill."
"Hmm, a fitting name. Actually we could still test a bit more. Let's see how far you can rewind in time. Next set the time to… 12 hours, half a day."
Karla was also very eager so she agreed and just as she was about to focus he interrupted her.
"Stop, stop. Let's try with someone else. We also have to see if the Time Remote behaves the same on others."
"There's also that, huh. I will go see mom then."
"It's alright. I will bring Miss Laura here."
He said while he got up and exited the room casually. He was however chuckling inwardly,
"Hehe, If she could really rewind time to 12 hours then her mother's deed will be exposed to her."
He mused that he might not even need to go for the fourth set of the plan as the main mission will be wrapped up by today.
