Going up the mountain, their presence was felt by the animals. Soon, many animals, be they felines, canines, or other species, begin to group close to them.
Amon's cold eyes swept over them. From his honey-colored eyes, there was a freezing sensation that made the animals sweat; some growled reluctantly but dared not attack.
The path he was going was the same as before, on the side of the mountain, which would be ideal for Maisa and Julia.
Ariel uses psychic power, and it doesn't matter where she went. In the case of Barbara, who used flames, being close to water was an excellent way to train too.
Suddenly, Maisa remembered the kiss she had given Amon in the hallway at school. She blushed, and her eyes sparkled as she secretly looked at him.
It was already night, so they didn't start training, but they set up tents near the lake.
Before they worried about food, the problem was solved.
"I'll make dinner." Barbara volunteered, "I brought supplies for the occasion."
From a backpack, she pulled out a gas stove that is often used at camp.
With a tank that was not large but big enough to last a few days, Barbara tried it out and smiled when she saw it was working perfectly. Of course, if necessary, she could use her flames, but having to do several things at once would lower the quality of the food.
.
.
After dinner, they soon start training.
Near the lake, Amon begins to meditate.
Around him, a lot of nature's energy surrounded him, and it didn't take long to start flashing.
It felt like all the energy around him was under his control, but actually, his consciousness couldn't control the power that roamed outside, only the power inside him.
The girls wasted no time. Surrounding him, they begin to meditate.
It wasn't as effective as it was for Amon, but it was several times better than being alone. Especially with the energy fluctuating around, it was easier for them to try to fill their genes without having to have direct contact with the proper elements; or like Ariel, with mental power, psychic.
The animals didn't waste any time either; some stayed in the lake, others got as close as possible without upsetting Amon.
Amon's sea of consciousness floated near the rune: [Heart Without Limits]. Gradually, he felt a stronger connection to the rune, as well as felt the genes increase.
<Gene + 1>
2 hours later...
Amon stopped meditating, the rain stopped, as did the lightning that fell on him.
Near the lake, he dove. The girls did the same when wearing bikinis.
Swimming up to Amon's side, Barbara smiled happily, "Amon, I've succeeded in increasing my gene."
Amon appraised her, then nodded, "Good."
"Hehee~" She stuck out her tongue in a cute way, then let out a nice sounding giggle.
.
.
The next morning they ate breakfast, then began training.
"It's more like this," Amon said in his cold voice.
Making the same move Ariel showed him, only slightly differently, Ariel realized her mistake.
"Thank you, I understand now." She smiled.
"Mm." Amon nodded indifferently.
Ariel continued to evade Amon. In this matter, she was better than the other girls. She was experienced in two types of martial arts: Fujitsu and Kung Fu.
Ariel's movements were agile as a cheetah, flexible as a Pangolin, and powerful as a Gorilla.
At the same time, she kicked; when Amon defended, she pushed her foot to the ground, gave a small jump, and spun in the air flexibly and agilely. Her powerful spin boosted her kick to become more powerful, going towards the chest of Amon.
"Bang!"
Amon defended himself again with his right hand, and, using a little more strength, he swung her foot upward, sending her somersaulting into the air.
Ariel's eyes swiveled and showed emotions of excitement.
"Gehehe~ This is fun~" She laughed as she landed on the ground and continued attacking from various angles.
In just 10 seconds, she managed to attack 20 times, and all 20 times were blocked. After that, Ariel's eyes sparkled even more, and she continued to attack relentlessly.
"My god, Ariel is insane." Julia said in amazement, "I've noticed this before, but she seems to be improving at a ridiculous rate."
"Yes, but I don't want to be left behind; let's keep going," Barbara said with a very serious expression.
"Okay, it's my turn," Maisa said as she pushed her sister away. "I will defeat you today!"
"Well, I do my best, but I won't make it easy." Barbara didn't dare to be complacent just because she was a little stronger than Maisa was.
Maisa's eyes become more stern, she breathes and inhales, getting in the best condition before starting.
The fight between the two girls started.
None of them used genes, as well as Amon and Ariel. It was training to improve the physique, as it was essential to have a strong physique and good agility without depending on genes.
In a matter of strength, Maisa and Julia had almost the same power, and Barbara had the lead only by a small margin.
.
.
In the afternoon, they trained using genes. A significant improvement could be seen when using the genes.
Ariel, who previously could attack 20 times in 10 seconds, can now attack almost 40 times in 10 seconds. It was amazing how much she was improving, Amon on the other hand, can attack 70 to 80 times in 10 seconds.
Amon, in his strongest form, was surrounded by lightning. His eyes grew more neutral as his strength increased in several folds. Not wanting to hurt the girls by fighting them, he avoided using 100% of his strength.
"You three attack at the same time," Amon said. He wasn't belittling them, but he also needed to improve. Only the three attacking him simultaneously would be able to make things a little more complicated for him, thus forcing him to improve by leaps and bounds.
"Yes!" Barbara, Julia, and Maisa nodded in unison.
Attacking at the same time, Amon nearly got hit several times.
As the fight progressed, the girls' movements became sharper, although, with light bruises from being hit, their eyes were still full of life, especially when they almost managed to land a blow on Amon.
"Mm..." Maisa thought of something and stopped. Her eyes close. She starts carrying her genes all over her body using the veins in her body. When she opened her eyes, now her eyes turn crystal blue, she was surrounded by water, and a pair of cat ears and even a tail made of water formed; her eyes became clearer, her aura more powerful.
"Maisa?" Julia is surprised by her sister's transformation.
Maisa didn't respond to her sister's call, she was focused on the feeling she was feeling. She felt calm, incredibly confident; without warning, she starts attacking Amon. Her attacks speed increased to 30 hits in 10 seconds and kept growing.
Her reflex also improved, she was able to predict some of Amon's attacks.
"Very good." Amon smiled a little as he said in his cool voice.
It was rare for him to praise them; Maisa was so happy that she lost her initial focus, and her transformation fell apart.
"…" Amon was perplexed.
"Misa, how did you do it? Teach me!" Julia approached her, soon, she took her hands and shook them like a rattle.
"Of course, but first, let me test it again." Coming out of her daze, Maisa replied.
Barbara looks on with envy, she tries to listen carefully to see if it could be of use to her.
Ariel used the psyche gene, so it was unlikely to benefit her, but she still decided to listen.
Amon stopped his movements, and soon he was back to normal.
Knowing that the girls would start exchanging tips, he went to train with weights.
.
.
After four days of training on the mountain...
The girls' movements became more agile, as well as their strength.
Each of them managed to acquire a transformation similar to Maisa and Amon.
Even Ariel was able using her psychic genes; it was something semi-transparent that made her look like a little demon with bat wings.
Barbara's transformation was in leopard form, her red hair standing out when surrounded by blue flames.
Julia's transformation was practically a copy of Maisa, but instead of looking like a feline, she looked more like a wolf.
The training had just ended; it was almost 8 o'clock on Saturday morning.
"I say, if we went back to high school and they knew how strong we got, even acquired a battle mode, how surprised would they be?" Maisa giggled.
"I don't know, but I bet it's enough to leave everyone's jaws on the floor~" Julia laughed.
Feeling her cell vibrate, Barbara went to answer a call.
After finishing the call she was making, Barbara went to them.
"Mommy is coming." She smiled. Barbara didn't feel left out, but she could feel that she was somehow losing to the twins, she needs support!
Amon looked at her with his cold eyes but softened a little, and he said nonchalantly, "Let's go get her."
"Yes." The girls agreed.
Going down the mountain, they came to the entrance; there was a white limo, and, coming out of the limo, Bianca was spectacular.
