The Gene Gamer

You could say that Garen and him didn't take the training seriously as long as they dind't fall the last they could enjoy the normal life of a trainee. One by one the trainees fell like a domino with short gaps in them. To the trainees watching Farold was an everyday thing.

Farold was always the last and they would also rest during this period of time while it was supposed to them immediately entering the combat ability training but ever since Farold had tired himself out they would rest for one hour.

Even though Farold was training his body to the fullest with unwavering determination and was tired very much after resting for one hour he would immediately become energized and enter the combat ability training before getting the top place. Nevertheless he was improving day by day if Cylius were to judge him.

But he wasn't so concerned in getting power, he had no reason to do so. But once this guy gets his second gene, him and Garen wouldn't have any way to defeat him. But whether it was or not they would live a seperate life once they get into their own schools.

If they were really fated to be with him he would have no choice but to end this threat if he were to infuriate a powerful enemy. Maybe he would first approach like a friend then kill him, making the enemy at fault secretly.

After Farold had fallen to the ground, the resting time of one hour started. "Hey Cylius, what do you think about Farold. Farold would son become powerful with his second gene awakened and even if it didn't awaken his gene is getting stronger day by day, I think if we don't make peace with him we won't rest easy"

"Hmm, I have been thinking about that for a while too, for now we should get on his good side. Even if we hate him we can't do anything for now we should just put on a friendly face and let it slide."

"Ok then we shall act like this" seeing Cylius's eyes pointing to the dwarf, he knew that he had picked a wrong time and place to discuss this, hence he ended the conversation immediately.

Soon the resting time came to an end and they stood up and awaited orders. The combat ability test would be the AI setting up the battle and them obeying the set up and battling them. Hearing the first setting of the AI he cussed out in his mind. Today was an unfortunate day for him, unluckily he had confronted Farold in the first battle.

As he was unable to do anything he could only curse his luck and get to the fighting arena. Farold also got up and once he saw him he said a short sentence while frowning. "Hmm, why are you here. But since you're already here I will serve justice to all those you bullied and snatched their nutrients, you evil thief"

As if hearing his thoughts the people that took a liking to the beautiful girl and opposed him cheered "Beat him elder brother, beat him. He has snatched our daily nutrients and because of it we had been starving all day long" even the beautiful girl had joined and cheered for Farold to beat him.

Cylius let out a sigh but his eyes showed a cold look and those who looked directly at his eyes shrunk back in fear and the cheering soon stopped. Some who had weak mentality even pissed himself and even Farold was affected by it as he showed a strange look.

Maybe he inherited the so called dignity of the dragon gene he ahd inherited and was the first time his aura was suppressed by others. For a moment a look of fear appeared in his eyes but quickly a dignified aura spread around him and his face was changed with solid determination.

But looking at Farold he sighed once again, he had just bullied and Farold had showed up, he was in fact very unwilling to become enemies with him. Who would be willing when the enemy triggered their instincts powerfully. If not for him being so stubborn he would've just pleaded.

But Farold was extremely stubborn and didn't accept apologies as he insisted on beating him to make him realize his mistake and even after that he would have to apologize to the group.

Thus, this quarrel had been created, since he didn't want to get beaten he had of course went against him. Thankfully Garen sided with him or else he wouldn't have won and is likely to get beaten already. One of the sub reasons was that he disliked his fiery temper and his body heat level.

Just something within him was being disgusted with this hotness ever since he had first battled with him. He had always liked coldness and maybe because the hotness triggered something within him a cold energy had started spreading, this thing hadn't awakened even until now.

Maybe he had a second gene but it was unlikely as the stone had already confirmed it, he had only one gene. Then maybe his current perception type enhancement was only a sub-effect. If this was it although, he was more talented than before he was sure to be not talented than Farold who had two genes.

As for his disgust to hot things, Garen was a special case his fire although hot he didn't always release it and as a matter of fact he felt quite close to Garen's fire. He got up the arena and prepared his guns. Since the training his strength in handling the impact of the power of the guns had become better and he could now shoot three shots in the riffle without much of a trouble.

His limit was five shots where he would be in a state of being unable to move if he took in all of the impact. But if he let the impact make him fly, he could just muster another shot, if there were no obstacles in his path in flying, if there was forget shooting six times, even with his metallic defence gene, his inner organs would be crushed from the pressure in two shots.

Now right after the battle started he shot at Farold with his handgun. Farold didn't doge as he knew it wouldn't hurt him so got his scales up and the bullet bounced off. But right after a bullet got into his chest, due to his arrogance Farold had paid back dearly.

The scale that got shot was pierced and blood oozed out from the wound. Enraged Farold immediately launched a counter-attack and breathed fire towards him.

"Crap" he thought as he didn't know Farold could use this ability, he couldn't dodge in time as the breathe came in too quickly, even though his reaction speed was top notch at such a distance his body couldn't move with his reaction. He could only get roasted by the fire.

Just as he was being roasted the strange cooling energy that he had been storing for quite a while now suddenly burst and unlocked something within him. Instantly he could feel strange cooling energy coming out from him and he could control this energy.

Suddenly the dwarf stood up and looked at Cylius shocked but soon got back to his strict face and once again sat back again. The cooling energy felt icy to the touch and it countered the hot fire that Farold was emitting. The two types of energy wreaked havoc and neither was one able to win.

In order to protect the trainees the dwarf had made up a huge bubble which isolated the surroundings from the battle within. Noon was injured, although they couldn't hear it they could occasionally feel some coldness that was very chilling and reeked of death, this terrifed the many of them greatly.

There were also some outburst of hotness that made them as if they were facing the sun. But the battle between the energies ended quicklier than expected and the winner was Farold, very obvious.

The energy within him had only awakened now how could it compare to the month old gene of Farold. But this fight's winner was ultimately him, the energy and the physical body was all that Farold had, even though he could fly he would be hunted down by Cylius.

During the energy battle because of the first move Cylius had he managed to injure Farold's physical body while the energies battled although he felt drained he had enough energy to win the fight. He shot the bullet to Farold's leg and won the fight.

The dwarf said that killing is forbidden and if you break this rule you will also get killed. He could only get rid of Farold another day.
