Background
Xia Ke was born with severe congenital amblyopia and an unusually large appetite. These traits made her the target of ridicule and left her deeply insecure; she was largely isolated at Donghai University and had few social connections. Her family was involved in organizing Donghai's Glutton King competition, and she was originally expected to participate as their candidate. 10 44
After seeing Su Li eat in the university cafeteria, Xia Ke nervously approached him and asked him to compete in her place. Su Li accepted, and Xia Ke's father later gave him additional compensation after witnessing his exceptional performance. 10 13 15
She awakened as a Superhuman after learning the Breathing Technique and consuming Energy Potions bought by her father. Her eyesight returned to normal, her appetite increased further, and becoming a Superhuman gave her the confidence to pursue both strength and Su Li openly. 40 44
Xia Ke and Su Li began their relationship after she invited him to a romantic movie. They confessed to each other afterward and became a couple. 39 40 She later joined the Detective Bureau because she wanted access to a complete Guidance Technique and feared losing the confidence her Superhuman status had given her. 44
Appearance
Xia Ke initially concealed herself behind oversized glasses and extremely long bangs. After becoming a Superhuman, she appears as a striking young woman with delicate features, shoulder-length hair, and unusually captivating eyes. 10 39
- Previously suffered from congenital amblyopia; her vision became normal after awakening. 42 44
- Her eyes are described as bright, deep, and difficult to look away from. 39 40
- Often dresses simply, but can present herself elegantly in skirts, uniforms, and formal outfits. 39 117
- Has a notably large appetite, even by Superhuman standards. 10 40
Personality
Xia Ke was initially timid, nervous, and socially withdrawn. Her childhood experiences made her accustomed to being overlooked, and she retained mild social anxiety even after becoming more confident. 44 61
Becoming a Superhuman changed her self-image dramatically. She became more proactive in romance, determined to improve herself, and willing to enter dangerous work despite Su Li's concern for her safety. 39 44 69 She is affectionate and trusting toward Su Li, though she can become jealous when other women appear close to him. 70 87 297
Despite her growing strength, Xia Ke remains compassionate. During her C-Class assault on a hostile fleet, she incapacitated enemies and took them prisoner rather than killing them. 671
