Multi-Gene

He looked around him. He was the only person conscious apart from the instructor. The other students were on the grass, lying there, knocked out cold.

David tensed his muscles and the grass around him exploded into numerous pieces. He then stood up from his bent position.

With a solemn expression on his face, he gazed at the instructor stating at him.

He had been in an illusion all this while and he had no idea how to break through it no matter how he had tried.

He knew from the beginning that every thing he was experiencing was only an illusion since David had seen powerhouses fight before.

They didn't have the ability to tear through space. The best they could do was disturb the atmosphere and create distortion and ripples of waves threatening to unveil space but they couldn't tear through space as that would require an insane amount of strength and power to achieve such a feat.

David knee that because he had had a glimpse of what strength was and instructor Aella obviously wasn't radiating that sort of intense, overwhelming aura.

Although she was strong, David could see through her strength and although barely, it was enough for him to come to the conclusion that he was in an illusion.

Moreover, at the beginning of their classes, she had placed them under an illusion in the first place which further backed David's speculation.

Instructor Aella tilted her head as she stared at David with a curious expression in her face. "You body is pretty interesting."

Her face seem to have that wicked smirk which made David shivered and he immediately refuted it. "I am just an average boy. I assure you, there is nothing interesting about me instructor."

The instructor covered her mouth and giggled as she replied. "That's not for you to decide. "

David frowned and then brought out a white coloured badge from his interface. "My master wouldn't appreciate it when you poke around his Personal Intern."

The instructor paused as she gazed at the badge and then looked at David with a raised eyebrow. "I actually didn't care to check you out but now, you are making me really interested."

She licked her lips as she stared at David with a wierd look on her face.

David wanted to curse. This instructor really was crazy.

"That's enough teasing for now ." The instructor waved her hands and then her expression turned pretty serious in the blink of an eye.

"Wake them all up. I have an announcement to make. And I need them conscious to listen. Hurry."

David sighed in relief and he did as he was told. His muscles trembled and then he abruptly shifted his center of gravity to his right foot.

"Boom!"

The ground beneath him exploded into multiple pieces and a tremor shook the place like an earthquake.

"This should be enough." David muttered to him self.

And true enough. The students who were knocked out started to wake up to the tremor David had caused.

But there was a particular female student who slept through violent tremor. She was releasing her own personal tremor herself.

Her snore rumbled like thunder and deflated with a whistle. It was a wonder the other students hadn't been startled awake by her snoring sound. It was Daisy. The fat female student with the rebounding skin.

David had to personally make her conscious from her slumber before she could wake up from her slumber.

"What happened?"

"I feel like I hit by head against a brick." someone mumbled as he rubbed his head against his palm.

"I'm pretty sure i didn't drink, so why do I feel like I'm having the worse hangover yet?" Another student groaned loudly feeling dizzy.

The other students continued to mutter sounds of complaint obviously oblivious to the situation they had woken up to.

But when they sighted the beautiful instructor staring at them expressionlessly before them, everything immediately came back and they remembered what had happened.

Their expression immediately changed. And some began to panic but then, the top students like Divos, Narphae, Normas, Phyllida and Luca who had roughly figured the situation had a composer look on their faces.

They gazed at the instructor with an expectant look on their faces while also gazing at each other warily.

They had also figured they were in an illusion and they knew the instructor probably didn't release the illusion because she was mad at their behaviour.

No! It was to test them for something. Although they have no idea what it was, they knew they had to try their best.

Luca was well aware he didn't have a chance at winning since he was one of the first few to be eliminated by the... Grass?

He had lost his guard after saving the blond girl back then. He was a kindhearted person which was why he had saved the girl despite knowing that doing so would increase the risk of him being attacked. And also knowing it was an illusion, but he couldn't help him self.

It was in his nature to help. Although he was strong and talented, he didn't have the pride of the strong.

"I see you all are now awake. My time is almost up so I'm going to make this quick so listen up." The students perked up their ears and immediately went to attention.

"If you hadn't figured out the situation yet, ask your classmates."

"Now, there would be an interclass competition in a about a month and two weeks. Five people from this class will be fighting people from other classes. Normas Divos, Narphae, Phyllida and David."

"From your performance, they have been chosen from your group. Now, apart from the five people I mentioned , the rest of you have no need to attend this class anymore for this period of time. "

Instructor Aella then paused to let the student assimilate to the information.

David didn't have any reaction whatsoever since he was aware of this information earlier. But the other four breathed out sighs of relief including Phyllida.

"Alright, that's all for now. The rest of you can leave. The five of you stay behind."

The students were carly confused about what was happening. Weren't they sighed into a black hole just now?

Weren't they at the verge of death not quite long ago? How the hell did it turn to a test? And how does sir even correspond to them having an inter class competition?

What the hell is going!?

The students were really confused but they didn't dare to dally and quickly left the field. The instructor seem have inflicted fear in them with her previous illusions.

Even David couldn't figure out how he had fallen to the illusion in the first place.

Immediately after the last person left, Instructor Aella turned towards the five of them. And they tensed up instantly.

David squinted his eyes. This instructor of was really beautiful. It's a pity she was quite weird.

"Not to take too much of my time, Divos will be the Co captain and the rest of you will assist him and the Captain during the competition."

The four students glanced at the Fiery Red haired fellow worth blazing orange pupils. Recognizing him as the Co-captain.

No one had any objections since he was quite the strong fella. His energy waves radiated like a blazing sun, fluctuating the atmosphere with silent powerful ripples.

He is a Triple-gene Phaser.

"That's all for now." With that, Instructor Aella turned around and was about to leave.

The rest of the team were taken aback. She only stated the Co-captain and refuses to state who the captain is.

"Who then is the captain?" Phyllida quickly asked her before she left.

Aella passed in her tracks and she tilted her head to the back and gave then a sidelong glance. "Isn't it obvious? It's the strongest amongst you, David."

With that, there was a booming and a whirring sound as her sky cruiser flew.

Instructor Aella stomped her feet to the ground and with a blast, she was catapulted to the sky, flying straight into the opened hatch of the Sky Cruiser.

Only the team of five student was left standing on the field, stunned. The four people gazed at the retreating Sky Cruiser and then to David slowly with frowns on their faces.

David had obviously just reached the Triple-gene Phaser stage. He obviously wasn't strong enough to be the captain of their group.

Amongst the five people, there wasn't a single one of them that wasn't a Triple-gene Phaser. And they had been in that stage for quite a while and had assimilated with their third gene for quite a while.

Even if one of them agreed to David being the captain of the team, there was still three people left.

Phyllida expression was ugly to the extreme. She wasn't the captain and wasn't even the Co-captain. There is no way she wouldn't be incredibly angered by this result.

David gazed at the rest of his team mates casually and then turned around to leave.
