Screams…
Metallic sounds…
Roars…
Not so much perceptible, but also the sound of dripping liquid.
“It’s the freshmen of the golden phoenix university, and…” Not too loudly, Maisa spoke as her eyes turned cold when she saw one person in particular. “Elijah!”
“Calm down, calm down. He’s just a nobody.” Julia smiled beautifully, totally indifferent to Elijah’s existence. In the current state she was in, she’d begun to feel that he didn’t even deserve to be taken into account.
The only fact that he looked any different from a simple pedestrian passing by on the street was just that after all, he was still Amon’s brother. Other than that, he was even more irrelevant to her than a dog. No, it was even worse, as if she had seen a stray dog. She was still able to stop and feed it, but even if it was on the brink of death, it was unlikely that she would move a finger to try to help him.
The amount of monsters in the place was no longer the same as before; it was on a much smaller scale. Also, the monsters that had a genetic factor, it seemed, were no longer here. After surrounding and killing a monster, then throwing the monster with its blood flowing towards the blood-eating tree, Elijah’s group was going to hide.
It was at this moment that Elijah noticed the presence of Amon and the girls, as they weren’t even trying to hide themselves. A mischievous smile curved Julia’s face as she took Amon’s arm and leaned towards his face in an affectionate and very close way.
Elijah saw this, and his eyes that were once wary from the surroundings were now a little arrogant and reluctant perhaps, but that soon turned to fury as his eyes narrowed tightly.
Through clenched teeth, he said ominously, “Amon?! You bastard! And to think you’re still alive!”
Why was he looking up towards Amon while pointing his finger, looking like Amon owed him something? Honestly, the way he acted was just too pathetic.
‘I still don’t know how someone like him has admirers…’ Maisa just couldn’t understand what other girls could see in this boy.
Good looks were easy to find everywhere, except that not even a family background could equal a nice looking hat.
With a calm expression, not in the least affected by Elijah’s words, Amon simply said in a neutral tone, “Someone as pathetic as you is still alive?…”
His eyes passed over the people who were standing next to Elijah. “Together with an equally weak group, how could you not be dead?”
“Insolence!” one of them yelled.
Soon one after the other began to get into battle stance, as their genetics began to circulate and become visible to the naked eye.
“It’s been a while since I’ve seen this brat, and ever since, I’ve been wanting him dead!” Fabio, Aguinaldo’s right hand man said in an arrogant tone.
For his turn, Aguinaldo took a step forward and said even more arrogantly, “Bastard, you were lucky before, but now you let it go to your head! Hehehe! I see that by your side you have four beautiful girls. To tell you the truth, I’m so horny and I haven’t had sex for so long since this stupid test started, that it wouldn’t be a bad idea to play with these bitches before…”
Amon looked at Elijah calmly. Perhaps because of the ragged clothes he was wearing now, it made Aguinaldo forget what had happened before, and when Amon heard what the other young man had said, his gaze showed a bit of fury.
“Ughh!” With his throat tight, not even understanding what was happening, Aguinaldo seemed to be choking as he seemed to desperately gasp for air.
*BANG!*
With Amon’s other hand surrounded by lightning, a punch landed in the pit of Aguinaldo’s stomach.
“AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!”
Aguinaldo’s scream was so loud that it attracted the attention of the monsters. It was even shriller than a pig in a slaughterhouse. For a person who has never suffered many setbacks, this alone was able to make him scream that much. Also, the impact caused the others around the instantaneous attack to be forced to retreat. Their look of astonishment was priceless.
Barbara felt so excited that she jumped about five times. She was like a happy child who was watching the movie they so wanted to see.
Elijah and Maicon were the most fearful. The strength shown by Amon was too much for them.
“How can he be so strong?!?” Maicon grabbed Elijah by the shoulders and screamed in disbelief.
Elijah didn’t answer, nor did Maicon want an answer, because the next thing they heard, the hairs on their scalps stood on end. Amon took Aguinaldo’s arm with both hands and twisted. The sound of bone being crunched along with torn flesh was too much. Not stopping there, Amon did it with his other arm and both legs.
“Ahhhhhh!”
“You shit!! It hurts, it hurts, ahhhhhh, ahhhh!” Aguinaldo, who could no longer stand, could only scream in pain.
He tried to exercise his genes, trying to somehow ease the pain, but he couldn’t. His mind was blank; he couldn’t even ask for mercy, or even ask to die for good. 𝐞𝗼𝐯𝐞𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
“Amon, y-you are crazy! He is the son of a teacher!” Maicon yelled as he pointed his trembling finger.
The other fledglings were in total shock. The brutality and cruelty shown by Amon with a calm look, as if this was something insignificant, made them feel as if they were standing over a deep abyss.

<Gene Calm + 1>

Perhaps because of the Calm Gene’s increase, Amon’s expression was even more peaceful. However, this was even scarier for his enemies. The calmer Amon looked, the more ruthless he became in their eyes.
*AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!*
What came next had them all clutching their privates as if they had received a hard blow with a distorted expression. With his left foot, Amon stomped his foot surrounded by lightning in the genital organ: Aguinaldo’s penis. Everything that should have been there was gone. It was just a big bloody hole that became visible.
Aguinaldo’s scream increased by several pitches. The pain he felt was something he never thought he would feel in his life. His terrified look was very different from the haughty look from before. Tears flowed nonstop from his eyes. He looked too pitiful as he stared at Amon as if he were facing the devil himself.
“Are you still thinking about something indecent?” Amon said in a neutral tone, “Come on, continue what you were going to say earlier.”
“I- I…” Choking on his own phlegm and tears, Aguinaldo couldn’t even speak. He just shook his head in denial without stopping, simply wanting this suffering to end.
“Disgusting.” Ariel took a step forward and kicked Aguinaldo’s body hard. In the kick, she used her genetic power and made Aguinaldo’s body float towards the blood-eating tree. She looked at Amon. “Let’s not waste time on this garbage. It’s not worth it.”
“Mm,” Amon just nodded.
Elijah and the rest thought that the girls would also be scared of Amon, but to their surprise, none of them seemed affected. Barbara even seemed excited about what had transpired.
