### Summary
This chapter confirms the long-standing fan theory that Bayan's village has been secretly harvesting and consuming her blood. The revelation has ignited overwhelming rage and disgust among readers, who are furious at the profound hypocrisy of the Siyo people. While publicly ostracizing Bayan as "worthless" and a "freak" for her lack of healing abilities, the entire community, including her mother, was secretly drinking her blood to amplify their own powers. This act of exploitation is viewed as the ultimate betrayal, with readers condemning the villagers for treating their most valuable asset like livestock rather than the "localized goddess" she truly is. The mother's complicity is a particular point of outrage, shifting her perception from a potentially secretive protector to a manipulative abuser in the eyes of the audience. The consensus is that the village's cruelty is not just illogical but unforgivable, with many readers now actively hoping for their demise as karmic retribution for their parasitic and abusive treatment of Bayan.
