Multi-Gene

The forest regained it\'s quiet atmosphere after a few moments.

Suddenly, a loud cough echoed through out the entire forest, startling the insects and little animals that had regained their courage to emerge out of hiding.

The moment David coughed out, he woke himself up but the state of mind in which he woke up was the same as the state he was before he fell unconscious.

A loud groan escaped his lips and he subconsciously stood up slowly in order to reduce the risk of worsening his injury.

It was then he gazed at his body and realised he wasn\'t the least bit injured. Surprised, he touched and poked every part of his body but everything was as smooth and soft as though the bloody fight he had experienced a few moments ago was nothing but an illusion.

Very much confused, David stood up from the floor, it was then he realised he was thoroughly naked. Surprisingly, there were ashes on the floor, shaped in his figure.

"My clothes were burned? What actually happened." David eyebrows were furrowed.

Even the bones sticking out of his arms had been fixed and the hole in which the middle aged man had pierced in his chest had been healed. His legs which had been twisted out place were also back into position.

David wasn\'t delusional to think the werewolf gene and the vampire gene in his blood were the one that fixed him to this extent.

Nothing can come out of nothing. There had to be some sort of energy that had healed his body to this extent. And David was pretty sure even if he had the chance to suck the middle-aged man\'s blood, he would have never have been fully healed.

Which mean someone or something might have helped him. But David had lived in this world long enough to realise that nothing is for free. Whoever had helped him might surely come back for compensation.

Furrowing his brows, David checked his surroundings for the corpse of the middle-aged man but couldn\'t find any.

After a while of scrutiny, he was barely able to find a few rotten bones scattered on the floor, probably done by some animal.

"Hazel?" David muttered as he tapped on his imprint.

There was no reply. David was beginning to feel uneasy by the second.

"Hazel!?" David yelled out this time.

"You are awake and... Surprisingly alright?" Hazel replied the second time but sounded incredibly surprised at David\'s good condition.

"What happened?" Hazel was confused. She had been speaking to David in his head, telling him to stay awake after killing off the middle-aged man. And ever since then, with the remaining power she had, she had tried resuscitating him as she had did previously but she wasn\'t as lucky this time.

It was then she encountered a bizzare interference like a wide coverage EMP. Her system went out like light and was only able to restart when David was awake.

"Shouldn\'t I be the one ? I was inches away from dying and then suddenly, I woke up feeling alright again." After looking for a long time, he was able to find a few clothing he assumed was from the middle-aged man.

"An interference?". David muttered to himself. After listening to what Hazel had said, the probability of someone else helping him increased even further.

"The person was very meticulous. There wasn\'t a single clue or tracks to work on." David frowned and instructed Hazel to check for clues in the surrounding area, maybe she also could find something.

At the same time, he also got dressed with the torn clothes he had picked up.

After a while of fruitless searching, David finally let it go. There was no way he would found any clues as the rain had swept most of them away.

He had checked his out body, but he hadn\'t checked his internal condition if they were okay. Previously, he had been stabbed, poked and pierced in his stomach and chest.

There was no saying there won\'t be any after effects. With that David circulated his blood. Slowly at first. And then, he gradually increased the pace bit by bit, until he reached 320CPM.

At first he wanted to stop as it seem as though he had reached his limits but he suddenly felt something deep within him telling him to continue even after he had reached the limits of his circulation.

And even more terrifying was the fact that the whole revolving process was entirely silent as though he wasn\'t revolving his blood through his veins. But David was preoccupied to notice.

He continued the process over and over again, and his blood revolution increased each time, breaking through several levels one after the other.

His body began to trump. It was as though a massive heat was giving birth to something indescribable deep within him. A massive amount of energy rumbled and roiled. Which then coursed through his veins with fiery stream of heat.

His body began to shake rapidly and his skin caked, cracking all over and then finally began to fall off one by one together with great amount of dark substance emerging from them. Crackling sound rumbled from within him as though something was breaking.

Cracks of lines spread out across the surface of his skin constantly increasing in numbers until they covered his entire body. An intense pain raked over David\'s mind but he endured it and soon, those bronze lines began to turn silver.

The body upgrade was divided into three levels which David had seen. The bronze body, the silver body and the diamond body.

Rumbling sound emerged from within da David\'s body for several days. More and more cracks emerged from his skin and soon, his bronze skin began to fall of one by one. It was almost as though he was malting.

Furthermore, as the pieces of flea fell off, they revealed silver skin underneath.

Three days passed, and the last skin fell off his skin and floated away through the wind.

David\'s body was now silver all over. He seem to shine even more with the glow of the moonlight almost like a spirit.

But sadly, David didn\'t notice all of this transformation

H

Is eyes were deeply closed and his focus, were deep within his body.

The power within him grew more and more intense and David felt stronger than he had ever being as his blood circulation increased even more.

The air around him distorted as his circulation extended to his external surroundings. Gravity was immediately affected as the hold it had over him loosened.

His body began to float in the air and enormous waves of power erupted from within him.

In that instant, David felt his mind go blank and he flopped to the ground, unconscious.

When he opened his eyes David felt as though he was in another universe.

There were multitude of stars, around him. Shining in all of their glory.

"Wrong, they are not stars, they are DNA strands?" David gasped in shock.

Indeed, when he looked closely, he was surround with DNA strands and it seems as though they were his.

Gazing in shock, he glanced a particular segment of a helix shaped strand. It was in two different colours, different from the usual blue the others had.

It was mixed with a gold colour and a red colour. And as he focused on the strands, several Information popped up in his mind.

"Multi-gene: Hybrid (Half vampire/ Half werewolf.)

"Status: Both gene still at the infant stage. Requires much practice and exercise.

Abilities: Blood healing(Level one), energy healing(Level two), blood arrow(Level one) Vampire transformation (Level one) Werewolf transformation (level one)... Others locked.(Improve strength to unlock them.)"

All these weird information popped up in his head, leaving him rather astonished.

David could guess and was finally sure that he was now in his genetic pool.

He had heard of these several times from other people and it was what differentiate a Phaser from a Spryher. It was the main reason a Spryher couldn\'t hope to compete of have any hopes in beating a Phaser.

The gene pool was where Phasers merge the gene they wish to create into it.

And no ally, one would need to ingest a genetic serum containing a specific gene in other to unlock it. And some unlucky ones would need to repeat the process over and over again until the gene pool reveals itself.

But in a situation where the gene pool reveals it self without the stimulation of a serum, that is completely unheard of.

And it only ever happens to those who had chosen to practice a Legacy technique. And even more so, they needed external stimulation from their elder\'s who had practiced that same legacy technique before. If not, it would be completely useless as one would be unable to practice the legacy technique.

Which was why the Nine Clans weren\'t always in a hurry to eliminate those who had legacy techniques. It was because even if you had it, there is no way you could ever become a Phaser.

Thus, you are no threat to them.
