The memories of this body's original soul flowed into Jin Cong-min's mind, and it wasn't pleasant at all.

The poor original soul had been "adopted" and treated like the clan leader's daughter, no one knew if it was a strategy to gain the favor of Goddess Hanaima or if the clan leader's wife had gone mad after the death of her infant daughter, four years old, victim of an attack by a wild animal.

This person's original name was Jin Cong-min, with Jin being the clan name and Cong-min being the first name. His name was forcibly changed to Seo-yun, Jin Seo-yun, because he had a really cute smile. It would have been a compliment, but under the circumstances it was just appalling, how they switched the child's gender with no regard for the consequences.

In that clan there were men who could get pregnant, they are called Gers, having to eat a kind of heavenly fruit from the temple, thus gaining the possibility of conceiving. There was a whole ritual inside the temple where a man becomes a Ger, and it was very mysterious how things happened.

It was so mysterious that people outside the clan were curious to know how a man could give birth, but it was later discovered that there were certain types of special men that only existed in the Jin Clan, what was known outside as Ger, only that only existed in the clan and in the entire continent nothing like that existed, which made the Jin Clan even more famous.

It is said that the Jin Clan came from the Eastern continent, which is still a big mystery to all other inhabitants of other continents, specifically beyond the mountains in a territory that is quite isolated from other countries. The Jin clan came from that place more than 300 years ago, no one knows for sure if they came by mistake, if they were exiled, if they came as a fugitive or if they were sent by someone powerful out of the continent.

The background of the Jin clan was mysterious and deep, unfortunately, there was nowhere to look for more information as those lands were a mystery even to the other countries in the Eastern Continent.

Seo-yun was raised like a beautiful spoiled doll by the clan leader's wife, despite feeling the obvious contempt of her two older brothers, she was happy to have good food and be well cared for by her mother and loved by her father.

Of course, there were some things that confused her, she felt different from her mother, when she hit puberty she didn't get her period and her breasts didn't grow, she had a shapely waist and looked very pretty, but he didn't feel as soft as her mother and the maid who always took care of her.

Her face was delicate and beautiful, her skin was clear and fresh like an orchid petal bathed in dew, and her eyes with long dark eyelashes, the eyes were round and slightly slanted downwards, giving an exciting feeling.

Her lips as pink as a peony flower and smooth as silk, fingers long and delicate, but she saw her image in the bronze mirror and there was something about her neck that her mother's neck didn't have and not the other women's, her father and her brothers also had that lump on their neck.

Even in the sticky summer, Seo-yun had to go out with a heavy gold and silver choker to cover that "defect", which caused envy in the other clan women who were unaware of Seo-yun's situation. The young woman, on the other hand, felt deeply distressed, and she wanted to go to the city doctor, since her mother never let the healer look too closely at her.

But her mother and father were very "protective" and did not allow her to go to the city for fear that she would be kidnapped, after all, she was very beautiful and would attract people with bad intentions.

Seo-yun accepted the situation with a forced smile, even though she noticed many things that were similar to men and not women, she was still an obedient daughter and listened to her mother when she asked to put padding on her breasts and devotedly studied embroidery, cooking, accounting housework, read and write eruditely, the latter was taught by her second-eldest brother who was a scholar, who is now at a reputable university.

She didn't know that girls in the clan didn't know all this, reading and writing were for the boys most of the time, only the daughters of the clan councilors had this high education, because they would be married outside and in the city, usually, with wealthy merchants and who wanted a concubine or even a small trader who wanted an efficient wife.
