Multi-Gene

Seeing this, the elder started murmuring amongst themselves. David couldn’t help but think they are just a bunch of assholes.

They were acutely aware he could hear them and their ridicule but they pretended as though he was blind.

Finally an elder came to a conclusion and said. “Any Mutant would have been able to do this. If they got the correct gene map.” he then turned to David.

“How about you transform the two at the same time?”

“Yes. You might be tricking us for all we know.” Another seconded.

“That’s impossible. I didn’t come here to show you guys what to believe or what not to believe, where the fvck is Mr White!?”

The entire hall. Instantly went silence and the eleven people in the hall stared at David with an expressionless gaze.

The pressure on David suddenly increased drastically as he felt pressure from nine sources slammed into him as though this entire mountain was putting its weigh on him.

The ground beneath David cracked but as though been protected by some invisible force, it didn’t explode.

David casually glance at the nine people the pressure was coming from. The anger in him was starting to brew now. He might be powerful enough to take them all down but taking down three or four of them should be no problem according to his previous power, but that was then. He had no idea about his strength now. He felt like a mini volcano about to explode, but he contained himself.

The only person he was wary of was the Demi-God, Arch Hunter; Allison’s father.

“Where do you think you are, young man?” Seeing as their pressure had no effect on him, one of them suddenly decided to speak up.

“You are in the presence of those who rule this world, in the presence of the people who could destroy you with a snap and you dared to raise your voice against us?” One of the youngster’s voices turned cold as he said.

David’s teeth clenched, but he took in a deep breath. “I was promised the release of my master if I drop the technique I used for my Hybrid technique. Now, I haven’t seen my master despite the fact that I’ve been here for thirty minutes, it was making me nervous, therefore, I apologise for my rash behaviour.”

As he said this, the tension gradually eased. And the room recovered its heat.

“Since you brought the technique here, let us take a look at it first.” one I’d the elder suggested.

David glanced at the eleven people in the room. But there was no other option, he removed a technique from his storage ring and threw it at the table.

The moment it landed, a youngster quickly grabbed it and scanned through it. In just a second, he was done.

The youngster’s violet eyes widened for a second and then he frowned, somewhat agitatedly he asked. “Where are the other parts of the technique? This only contained one part of three.”𝒐𝒱𝗅xt.𝗰𝔬𝗆

“The rest are with me. I have given you one part as a show of faith, the second part will be given to you when I see my master and the third part will be sent to you once I and my master make it out of here.” David answered, his expression resolute as he told them.

“Bring that, let me see.” An older elder asked as he took the book in his hands, similarly, his eyes shone brightly but his face scrunched up.

“I can’t believe it had been so simple and right before our eyes all along.” The elder man shook his head and passed it to the other elders. Similarly, they were also shocked by the ingenuity of the technique.

Allison’s father finally took a hold of it and read through it. “Is this the only copy you’ve made?”

His question made David’s heart skip a bit and he knew the negotiation had already gone sideways. He could say yes, but would they actually believe him?

David shrugged. “Yeah, that’s the only copy I made.” As he answered the question, the Arch Hunter snapped his finger, causing a massive amount of friction in the atmosphere as sparks appeared around his fingertips, he placed the book in the air and it caught fire instantly burning to ashes.

David’s pupil constricted. “My master is not with you is he?” his gaze fell onto Allison who smiled at him, stroking Flint’s body softly.

Allison’s father stood up and threw the ash on the floor, clapping his hands to get rid of the residue.

“Actually, your master was with us but you didn’t show up for a few months and the Dragon Family kept demanding for him with offers we couldn’t afford to give up, so we gave him away. He was going to die anyway, it didn’t matter whose hands it was.”

David’s countenance turn cold. “You sold Mr White?”

“Don’t be so crude David, it’s just an exchange of goods with the Dragon family that’s all.” one of the teenagers, a girl said and the teens laughed in unison.

His gaze drooped as he turned towards the Arch Hunter. “So what happens now?”

“They also paid also for information about your whereabouts, they should be arriving at the city by now.” Allison’s father casually stated.

David took in a deep breath. “I’m leaving.”

“No, you’re not. See the Dragon family is the wealthiest even with the seven families combined, we couldn’t beat their wealth but with you, we could exchange you for a quarter of their wealth and they would agree.” The same female teenager replied.

David’s face twisted in rage. “You could exchange me? Or you have exchanged me?”

“Well, technically we’ve struck a deal with them. They deliver once they see you.”

David strangely calmed down and he sneered as he turned to the Arch-Hunter. “I don’t know what sort of games you think you’re a playing here, but do you think you can fool me?”

David’s eyes changed and two colours merged in his eyes as he gaze at the people in the room, but there was only one person in the room apart from David, that person was the Arch-Hunter!
