Multi-Gene

"How did you mange to snag that?" Nihyuh was truly astonished. Even he hadn't got to the to the top 10 positions. That's how hard the competition was.

He still couldn't completely believe it even though he already saw David's name in the rankings.

"I was just lucky." David shrugged and refuse to answer.

This made Nihyuh dissatisfied and he immediately snorted.

David only smiled in response after which, he raised his head ad he saw a sky Cruiser heading his way.

"Alright, my ride is here. I wanna go rest." David said as he waved at Nihyuh.

Nihyuh blinked his eyes and in a bland tone, he said "The Cruiser is coming for me not you."

David paused and he glanced at Nihyuh, asking of he was joking or not.

"Are you kidding?" David couldn't help but ask after some hesitation.

"You should get out of the way, I told you it's coming for me." Nihyuh fold his arm adn responded.

"I called the Cruiser as soon as I got here, so it's obviously coming for me." David said, he was beginning to get anxious and annoyed.

"Wanna bet?" Nihyuh raised his eyesbrows in ridicule.

David face grew red and he said "How much do you want to bet?"

"5000!"

"Deal!"

"Wait! Do you even have that much with you?" David asked suspiciously.

"Of course!" Nihyuh beat his chest with a loud thumping sound.

David finally decided to believe him after some hesitation.

Then the both of the began to walk forwards to the sky Cruiser that had just landed in front of them.

With a puff, the hatch opened. David glanced at Nihyuh with disdain as they both walked through the stairs, Almost reaching the door of the Cruiser.

Those who were not assigned to the Cruiser would not be allowed to enter by the AI in control of security.

Which means the loser would be sent out while the winner of their bet would enter.

With wide eyes, they watched as they both enters the Cruiser without much trouble.

Both of them had been assigned to the Same Cruiser.

When they got to their seat, the both of them remained silent but David was shameless to begin with.

He instantly gazed at Nihyuh with a look of disdain "You are such a fool. How can you not know that we are both going to the same destination?"

Nihyuh was very much stunned and his face turned red as he opened his mouth to retort but David raised his hands up and interrupted him "Save it! I have no time to waste with you."

After which, he turned his head away and pretended to be asleep.

"Y-you!!!"

Nihyuh was so angry that veins popped out from his head as he struggled to restrain himself.

* * * * * *

When David finally got to his dorm typed in his code and entered the door, he immediately locked it and whispered.

"Activate the Incognito Mode." The room darkened and the white four wall papers on the four corners of the room darkened slightly.

Seeing this, David didn't immediately go to bed. No, he sat cross legged on his bed.

He had been anticipating this moment for a long time.

Opening his interface, he grabbed the three books that he had found back in the Underground basement, where he had killed the wannabe vampire.

He hadn't even touched it ever since he had gotten the book. He was being very careful and now that he was in an absolute safe zone, his room where no information could escape, David finally decide to read it.

Grabbing one of he the books, David gently opened it. The rays of light that felt almost real to touch.

"The Vampire Body Tempering Exercise."

David's mind went blank. He couldn't comprehend what was going on either.

Can one even cultivate to becoming a vampire?

David flicked his hands storing the book back, he grabbed the second book and also checked the title.

"The Werewolf Body Tempering Exercise." David laughed loudly, thinking someone was making a practical joke on him.

It was practically impossible to cultivate a full gene without implanting something that could serve as a core or base to stabilize the effect of practicing it.

Still not believing it, David grabbed the third book. Now he wanted to see what's joke this one would have in it.

David frowned as it seemed to be someone else's diary which was different from what he had expected.

Opening the first page.

"Day one.

This is incredible. Two complete legacies? Who would have thought such things would land on my lap just like this. If the genetist association knew about this, I would be dead for sure. I should be careful."

The day one was full of the owner expressing his joy at getting two complete legacies and his wish to exercise caution. David could guess the legacy the man was talking might actually be the two tempering body exercise.

"Day two.

I have read both of the legacies, but I'm sadly unable to practice them. Their requirements are just too much.

Firstly, one must not have practised other body tempering art? How is that even possible? Even the first requirement has already disqualified me. This is simply unacceptable, I have to do something about it."

"Day three.

Hahahaha! The universe is helping me! I have found hope! I just need a few humans to experiment with and things might actually just work out fine and I will be ablr to practice the legacy. My talent will soar and I will be on par with those geniuses who came from the Nine famlies.

And in just a few years, I should be able to become the 10th family of the entire sector."

David couldn't help but admire this person's dream. Even his dream couldn't beat this mans'.

"Day four.

I have managed to procure the experimental subjects in one way or the other. Although slightly difficult, I was successful. Is should be able to start the experiment tomorrow. "

"Day five.

I have somehow managed to simplify the techniques in the legacies into five derivations and have given them to the subjects to practice. It should yield result in three more days. Is should be patient."

David couldn't help but frown. How the hell did the man manage to simplify a legacy when even those at the genetist institute couldn't do it. Legacies are a complete mystery as no one knows who created them in the first place.

There are only Nine known legacies available in the world. And they had been taken and protected the so called Nine families.

They had taken one for themselves, practiced it to a certain point and were already strong enough to protect themselves.

Legacies do not need to plant any sort of gene in their bodies, they create the gene using their own bodies with some external factors and from there, managed to cross into the realm of experts after reaching a certain period.

It was said that the patriarchs of the nine families could only practice a third of exercise before they were unable to advance anymore but even that was able to make them gaze down at the world in disdain.

"Day three.

Finally! I succeeded. "

That was all as the person didn't write anymore.

It was at this time David began to believe that's the legacies might actually be real.

He carefully opened his library and grabbed the book from the shelf.

"The Vampire Body Tempering Exercise."

Taking in a deep breath, David opened the first page and began reading.

And what greeted David was the list of requirments.

Its first requirement was that the person hadn't practiced any body tempering art.

Second requirement included not being older than 20. This made David blink his eyes, his soul was definitely older than twenty but he believed they were taking about the body's age.

Third requirement Included being a virgin to start the exercise. David couldn't help but scratch his head in shame. It really wasn't something to be proud of.

Fourth requirement, one must have obtained at least 500CPM before practicing.

After fulfilling all of this requirements, one can start practicing it.

David's frown deepened. 500CPM? That was almost impossible for him to reach during this short period of time even if he had hope to reach it.

David shook his head in regret and he placed the book back while he grabbed the second one

"The Werewolf Body Tempering Exercise."

The first and second requirements was basically the same thing but the third requirement made David very troubled.

One mustn't be a virgin to practice the technique. He didn't know whether to laugh or to cry.

"This legacy sh*t has a huge problem." David muttered. "But it shouldn't be a problem"

Then, he said he should glance at the last requirement,

One must have obtained at least the silver body before practicing it to endure the transitioning process.

David frowned and he suddenly recalled his body gained an ability the bronze body when he had fought those Dark Wolves without revolving his blood.

Which means the higher grade should be the Silver body.. David mulled.
