Multi-Gene

The illusion had only occurred for about a tenth of a second since David quickly reigned in his killing intent but it was enough to make the seven people freeze up in shock and tremble in fear.

"W-what d-did Y-you do?" a buff guy with purple hair was quick in snapping out of it but he pointed towards David with trembling hands, quickly withdrawing backwards.

His trembling voice also started the others and they quickly retreated behind Silverton.

The expression Silverton was using to look at David changed slightly. His will power was stronger then the other seven, and he had also killed quite the number of people which was why he had been able to ignore the effects of the murderous waves.

Silverton stared at David seriously and he spoke. "It's seems you are preparing to refuse my good intentions."

David glanced at Silverton for a moment before he completely ignored him. He wasn't going to waste his time with some kid.

He smiled and was about to greet the others goodbye and leave, the sound of a force notification sounded in David's heard.

Someone had sent him a forced Duel. David's smile faded in an instant and he stared at Silverton coldly.

"It seems you wouldn't give up until you see death face to face."

"Don't be so tense, it's just a regular spar." Silverton revealed a nonchalant smile and he stared David dead in the eye. His pupils widened and glowed a dark red colour.

David's eyes instantly glazed over as though he had been hypnotised.

"You are weary and tired. You just want to have a good rest. Sleep " Silverton stepped forwards, and his eyes was increasingly bright as he stared into David's eyes.

"That's right, you are tired, lie down now and go to sleep." The aura coming from David began to decline and his eyelids began to close.

Fergus and the others wanted to interface but they were being blocked by Silverton's people.

Seeing that David had fallen for his technique, Silverton raised his hands up and then jabbed it towards David's forehead.

Suddenly, David's lips curled up into a smirk. He grabbed onto that finger and twisted it into a weird shape.

The sound of bones cracking resounded and everyone could hear the crisp and clear sound.

"Kacha!"

A pitiful wail rang out from Silverton's mouth. He hurriedly stepped backwards, his gaze was full of hatred as he glared at David.

He had never thought that even when he tried his best not to underestimate this bastard and had used his one and only Brown grade technique he had trained for the past few months, he was still unable to hypnotise the bastard.

Silverton gritted his teeth as he held the pain in. "Bastard! I will make you p-" It's was then Silverton's stiffened. It was as though he had being held in place by a giant vice grip. He couldn't move a muscle.

David grabbed at his shoulder with force and he smiled at Silverton. "You should watch your mouth next time. If this happens again, I will actually kill you." With that, David flung his body away as though he was made of paper.

Then he faced Fergus and the four other people he knew. "I will take my leave now. You guys should take care of yourselves. And April, I hope you can at least say 'I' when next we meet." David said with a pout.

"Alright, I really should get going." With that David turned around and left the street.

Fergus, April and the two others were stunned speechless.

"W-was he always that strong?" April muttered in disbelief.

"Yup! I knew from the first time we met." Clover said proudly.

Fergus gazed at David's withdrawing figure with a deep look. Back then, he had somehow knew David wasn't your regular student, he just hadn't think he was this strong.

Silverton was a double-gene Phaser. Their strength and reaction speed is way higher. And the movements of a single-gene Phaser to a double-gene Phaser was as though they were put on slow motion, so they would be able to react fast and deal a fatal blow whenever they could.

But for David to be able to beat Silverton, doesn't that mean he was even stronger than a double-gene Phaser? The thought was terrifying.

Closing the door to his room, without needing to say it, the incognito mode was automatically turned on by Hazel.

Without further delay, David sat on his bead and took out the Silver Body Tempering Exercise.

David flipped open the book and began reading the first page.

The technique contains only four states in it. The beginning state the middle stage, the completion state and the Perfection state.

The beginning state was the hardest part of training the technique as it involves several external resources and factors to train the exercise.

Moreover, this exercise wasn't one that can be trained while being stationary, it requires actual training to be able to be initiated into the technique.

But that was the most interesting part of the book that piqued David.

The part that piqued him was the fact that if one had the True Silver Body, this technique could actually strengthen its by a terrifying 50%. David was astonished.

This Silver Body Tempering Exercise was specifically made to enhance the True Silver Body but it was really hard to achieve the True Silver body state, which was why the technique had somewhat degraded to a Body Tempering Exercise.

The only draw back is the method of practicing the technique. It was practically a money burning exercise and a literal hell to anyone who wishes to practise the technique.

And before one could practice the technique, it also requires one to have at least practiced a passable body tempering exercise to increase the body's resistance to pain and torture.

Done with the introduction and warnings, David was taken aback when he flipped to the main part of the book.

He finally understood why they called it the money-burning exercise and could not help but chuckle bitterly.

But he had no choice in his quest to grow stronger as he hadn't forgotten the danger looming over him.
