Multi-Gene

Blasted back downwards, as David was about to heavily fall back down towards the ground, his boots instantly transformed.

Several parts of the Sky walker rearrange and the open mouth of the output thrusters expanded by almost three times in less than half a second.

Suddenly, the mass of combusted hot gas shooting out of the Sky walker increased by several fold, simultaneously increasing the up thrust force.

As he was about to smash against the ground, the force propelled him horizontally, his back had almost touched the ground by then, parallel to the ground. And he finally regained momentum.

His body drew an arc as he flew to the top of another building. Finally closing up the thrusters, David landed on the cold edge of the building.

His expression was very solemn like never before. His arm had almost broke from their collision. They twitched unsteadily under his sleeves since he had lost control over most of the nerves controlling that part of the body.

Using his ability, he calmed his nerves and hurriedly regained control over his arm.

“So strong!” David murmured with a solemn face.

He had never met a student who was this string before. He had been defeated in just one strike. Although he hadn’t used his strengthening ability nor the bronze body.

Considering the fact that he was keeping them hidden, he had been defeated as a normal student.

“Cool Gadget. Must be very expensive.” he heard a robotic voice said from afar.

“Who are you?” David said with a frown. He didn’t know what this person wanted but if he had a choice, David didn’t want to reveal his cards yet. But if he was forced to, he would be certain to kill off any withness including the person before him.

The only problem was that this guy seem incredibly tough and should he be unable to finish him off in one strike, things would get progressively difficult.

Before David could say a word the person’s robotic voice said. “You saved me the cost of using an EMP, so I’m in a good mood right now.” a robotic chuckle sounded out. But it just made David weirded out.

“What do you want?” David repeated.

“Oh that! I had almost forgotten, I got a bit carried away. So I’m basically here to extending an invitation to you on behalf of our organisation, The Dark Phantom. We would wish for you to join us. What do you think?” The person finally stated why he had asked David to meet him.

“Isn’t that just part of the Dark Society the institute advices is the students not to get involved with?” David emphasis on the Black Society part.

“I could even get punished if I was sighted with you guys. Not to mention talking with

a member.” David said with squinted eyes.

The person seem to have expected David’s words and chuckled lightly. “That isn’t entirely true. With great risk comes great reward. I’m sure you’ve heard of that saying before. The gains you will get from joining the Dark Society far outstrips the risk of getting caught.”𝗇𝞸𝓥𝖾𝐋𝑛𝖊xt.𝑐𝒪𝗆

“So what you mean to say is that if I knew of the rewards I could gain from joining your organisation, I would risk getting punished by the institute or even possibly expelled?” David was now getting a bit intrigued.

“Where there is great light, there must be great darkness to keep the order. We aren’t entirely in bad terms with the higher ups of the institute. We just keep both sides in check is all. You can even say we can’t do without each other.” The person shrugged as he answered.

“So what’s your answer going to be?”

“What would happen if I rejected your invitation?” David asked thoughtfully.

The man seemed a bit surprised and then his robotic voice grew dark. “It seems like you are truly ignorant about the honour of having being personally invited. And by me at that.”

“There are thousands of students who would beg for this opportunity but couldn’t get it because we only recruit real talents not some trash.”

“You should be grateful for… ” he hadn’t even finished his speech when he was Interrupted by David.

“Stop right there, I’m in.”

“Rejecting us isn’t a wise…wait what?, you’re in?” the man was stunned as he stared at David from the top of the old building

“Yea, I’ve wanted to join anyways. I just didn’t have enough time to check it out.” David stated nonchalantly. He was honest about what hale had said. He didn’t have the time to look for where their base was at, which was why hadn’t even joined them yet.

“Haha. Good, that’s good. I had thought I would need to convince you more thoroughly. But this is good too. Come, come. Place your imprint on this device, you will automatically be choosen as part of us.” he laughed loudly and took out a device from his pocket.

Using his huge arm as leverage, he made a sudden leap across the multiple buildings and landed right in front of David.

David stepped back to give the guy some space. He couldn’t help but be slightly shock in his heart.

He was sure the guy had merged with some mutated ape variant gene, which was why his arm was like that.

“Bang!”

The entire building shook as the guy landed on it. He placed the box shaped device on the ground and gestured to David.

“Go ahead and place your imprint on the scanner.” David glanced at the imprint a bit skeptical .

“Are you sure this thing is safe?” One’s imprint was no different from one’s entire life. If the imprint was some how broken. The person’s path to becoming stronger would also be broken and would be no different from an ordinary person.

Giggling slightly. The person responded. “Of course it’s completely safe. See?” the person stretched his hand out and drew his glove down slightly, showing as he placed his own imprint on the large surface scanner, scanning his own imprint.

David watched this process carefully. He wasn’t about to place his own imprint on something he knew nothing about.. It was best if the other party tried it first.
