as far as the cliffhanger goes this is like the 3rd one that i ran into (first was before the battle of diamonds) it is simply cause the creator has not finished the story and is releasing in segments so we have something while we wait for the full story and i think the mc's mom was a superhuman cause in 1 of the memory echoes she was responding to what someone from another car was saying indicating she had a unnatural level of hearing also if the mc has high corruption they will see multiple of the apostles (the monster gods) in their dreams yet the eye the mc talks to dismisses the apostles like they were nothing to it so i dont know what the mc actually is or what they r truly capable of
