Chapter 4: Gene Grades
Chapter 4: Gene Grades
"Hey friend why you have to be so cold man, at least look at me. We're friends right, don't you think so. Recently, I heard a rumor about you. It says that you are some cold blooded person that kills upon sight. Is that true? Well no mind because you will still be my friend"
"Shut up"
"I have a gun right here. You see it?" saying this, he pulled out a handgun from his pocket. N/nêw n0vel chap/ers are published o/n n0v/e/(lb)i(n.)co/m
Then, he waved it in front of Garen, just like how a person would do in front of children in order to make them grab towards it.
Seeing the gun, Garen retreated a few steps before pulling out a thing from his pocket.
It was a liquified nutrition.
"You know man... don't be so serious. I'll give you this liquid nutrition, how about it?" he said somewhat playfully.
Then seeing that Cylius wasn't going to accept it, he looked to be dejected as he muttered "But buddy, we have gone through so much together and you're already saying things like this..."
"..."
Cylius felt speechless. What have they gone through? He had just met this guy about three hours ago and without much context, he had already considered him as his friend. Did he find something special in him or what.Did he find something special in him or what.
It would've been nice if he actually also liked his personality but the thing was, he didn't like him at all.
No, none at all.
"Just scram"
He shook his head and fastened his pace. He knew that Garen faked his dejection. Just from looking at his eyes, he could see that 'fake pitiful' look. But he was also quite suspicious. Why would a random person suddenly get attached to him?
Did he lose some bet in his friend group?
Besides, if he did this to everyone, he really would've died in the orphanage many times over. There were many people like him who could really just shoot him and kill him just because he was annoying.
Unfortunately, he didn't really know what would happen to him if he killed Garen right here and now. He could also be killed along with Garen so he didn't want to risk it.
Since violence wasn't the answer here, he would have to find another way. So after contemplating for some time, he decided to just ignore him for the rest of the journey.
Ignoring him would definitely make him bored. He was sure of that and since he was a very energetic person he would eventually give up on him and go find another person to be his victim.
He really didn't want any relationship with Garen at all.
While they were arguing, they had already arrived at their destination. In front of Cylius was the room with a number '735'. It opened up with a card so no one except the owner could enter it.
After flashing his cards, he entered his room before closing his door shut. Poor Garen didn't even realize what situation he was in until ten seconds later.
Inside the apartment, nothing could be heard. Only quietness which could be peaceful sometimes and violent sometimes. It all changed on the user.
After entering his room, he calmly analyzed his situation.
If everything were to be counted from the beginning it would be when the spaceship delivered him to the orphanage.
At the time, he didn't know what to do so he just went along what the officials told. He was normally an average student. Well, 'he' 'was' an average student.
He did what they told and learned language and a bit of the history of the world.
It wasn't much, just ok for a normal human child.
Looking around the apartment, he saw a slightly bit luxurious room waiting for him. Tilting his head just a bit upwards, he suddenly flinched. The reason was that an unknown voice had suddenly greeted him.
"Welcome host. I'm the room's monitor and its respective AI. If you have anything to make me do you can ask the question at anytime."
Oh well, that is convenient. He had many doubts about this world so he was going to ask a lot of questions.
So he just nodded and first went to find the bedroom. The apartment consisted of one bedroom, one toilet and one living room. It wasn't much and could be said to be a normal apartment room of a hotel.
There, he sat down on the bed before slowly falling into the soft and warm bed.
It was an entirely new sensation compared to the cold and rough bed made out of iron at the orphanage so he enjoyed it while he can.
Now, here comes the questions.
"Are there any reminders for me?"
"Yes. First reminder - there will be a training project starting two days from now on. It is for the purpose of training orphans until they are suitable to carry the power of a gene. Second reminder - you have a card that Sir Derick gave. It is a C grade gene storage room card that allows you to pick one desired gene you want from there."
"Sir Derick?"
"Yes"
In case of safety, he didn't ask about sir derick again.
"How different are the genes in the C grade storage room compared to others"
"Genes are divided into five grades - Common, Uncommon, Eare, Sacred and Ancient. The C grade storage room stores Uncommon genes."
"How important are genes?"
"Genes are important for the future of mankind. It helps humans start out on the path of genes"
"What do you mean by 'start out on the path of genes'?"
"Humans are unable to cultivate spiritual energy and runes so they borrow the genes of monsters to help them"
"What does people who use geneticians called. You know, like sorcerers and such."
"Geneticians have six grades. It starts with the first and ends with the sixth. Lower grade geneticians can't absorb higher grade genes."
"A.I., tell me how much is the difference of a grade B room compared to a grade C room and did the lighting of the second stone matter in the room grade?"
"The difference is that the grade B room can be considered luxurious while the grade C room can be considered above average. For the exact difference, grade C room doesn't have any baths or any shower, the bed is smaller and doesn't have any living room."
"The technology there is slightly outdated and doesn't receive any meals right to the apartment. They use public showers and baths and yes the lighting of the second stone matter. It's a test to see if the examiner have any natural born unique genetics"
...
"Then for the last question, what is the training project?"
"The training project is the act of the trainees selecting their own genes and working to increase their gene power displaying percentage and also training the body. After that, the trainees will participate in a championship where there are rewards for the top ones."
'Then doesn't that mean I will have advantages over the other trainees by getting higher quality genes from the storage room from the start?'
The series of askin gand answering between him and the A.I. ended sooner than he thought. But within this short time, he now knew about the basic structure of the world which would definitely come in handy later on.
Well, this was good. A better start, a better future. If he could gain the top hand at the start, his development would be smoother and also faster than his peers.
