The Gene Gamer

The A.I. suggested that he should choose the genes when it was the time to choose for a variety of reasons. So he did as it told and didn't get the gene for now. 

As time passed with him just lazing around, the day the training program would start have already come. On top of the training program, they would also pick their new genes today. Of course, they would have to take additional medicines in order for their body to not just explode from the stress of their genes. 

Even if they hadn't asked, the A.I. would've told them about the program so all of the orphans have prepared for today. 

Some excited while some not. After all, in this day and age, the only way to gain extraordinary power was through technology and genes, which, the genes had a better future and potential. 

Genes granted every person's dreams. Not to mention the ability to roam the wide cosmos freely and fight abnormal monsters, one could even revive other people. It was just too miraculous compared to their current power. 

Through the A.I., orphans were able to know the meaning of the two stones that were on their way here. 

The first stone was for detecting the talent of the person. The talent to absorb genes. Each and every person did have the ability to absorb and utilize the power of genes but that didn't mean that everyone had the exact same talent and could absorb the genes to their fullest. 

Some people had abysmal talent, only able to absorb 0.1% of genes while some had heavenly talent, being able to utilize the genes to their fullest. 

Of course, genes didn't mean the only path to power. There were other paths but they were just much more sophisticated and harder than using the genes so genes were the main path to power. 

The first stone would only light when the person had the talent to absorb 50% or more power from the gene. However, being able to utilize 50% didn't mean half the power of the respective gene. If said, it should only be around one-fourth of the full power.

It didn't mean much but it was enough for it to be a dividing line between the low talented people and the moderately talented people. 

And the more one advanced towards 100%, the more power that could be displayed. In the end, it would be several times the power a 50% can achieve.

While he was thinking that, a person had already come and was standing in front of them. No, it should be floating.

If described in terms of looks, he was close to the tale of dwarves originating in the 'early techno age'.

The early techno age described the 21th century and before. It was considered to be the age that was the most primitive in using technology, with just the use of electricity and a few other natural resources. 

...

This century was the age where humanity had dealt devastating effects on the mother planet. The damage they had caused was so devastating as it was on the line of being irreparable.

Fortunately, a genius researcher was born in the decade. He made technology advance by great leaps. He had even did the fundamental understanding of teleportation. He was considered a great figure in the world and was revered by the masses. 

In his lifetime, he created many miracles which, one was the revival of Earth.  contemporary romance

Unfortunately, the genius' life was short as he died at the age of 31. It was determined that his brain had just been too much powerful and due to the constant stress of thinking, it had overworked itself and eventually failed. Ironically, it was just on his birthday. 

It had been said that ten million people participated in his funeral, a truly legendary figure indeed. 

If he hadn't existed, humanity would've probably died off already considering their mother planet - Earth had been just so damaged. 

There was a study a few hundred years later which was about a certain species. 

An alien species that had a much more sophisticated technology. There wasn't much to learn as almost all traces of this civilization had become nonexistent except one certain structure that had somehow managed to exist for billions of years. 

Yes. Billions. 

Not much was known about how far its technology had reached but it was determined that it was enough to tear the shell of the universe held and travel through them. 

But for some reason, they didn't. 

Almost as if they were too scared to go outside, they just waited until their own deaths came. Death by an unknown disease, most likely through the soul. 

Humanity thought they would be able to move on to anothe planet if things went extreme in Earth. However, had they really did that, they would've died just like the alien civilization. 

The reason the alien civilization had died off was because their mother planet had been destroyed. Therefore, so did their souls that were contained within it.

The aiens were better to be called the advanced version of humans. They had many abilities from birth. Telepathy, telekinesis, extreme strength and so on. Just one of them had the ability to kill an entire city with a population of one million without using any tools or weapons. Just them, their bodies themselves.

But still, they died off miserably. Within a week at that.

But that didn't matter much to Cylius. If humanity were to die, so be it. He didn't care about it.

...

The dwarf man then introduced the place and the various functions of them.

After he was done talking, a holographic screen appeared before their eyes. 

Looking at his, he saw an extra line that wasn't mentioned in the dwarf's explanation. Apparently, people could only choose one gene from the ship and he was no exception. However, while others could only pick Common genes, he could get an Uncommon gene due to the card he received from sir Derick.

Pressing the C grade line, the genes introduced were much lesser than the E grade row he checked earlier.

But the quality of the genes had improved drastically.

Just as he was checking the descriptions of the genes in the C row, one gene caught his attention.

It was a force type gene, which was considered rare among genes. It definitely would've been in the B row but there must've been a reason it had been placed. And just as he had thought, it had many disadvantages. 

So, he decided against it.
