There was a flash of light and she arrived before him in the next second and a sweetened fragrance like the breeze of a clear summer rose hit his nose it was strangely comforting but it couldn't comfort the threat of death from Theon's mind. "Heard you have the potential to master an Intent. Blade intent is it? You are even weaker than the last two Prime." she mumbled under her breath.
"Don't take this as a threat yeah, but can you not come to me for your monthly free lecture? I hate wasting my time teaching for free when I could earn from it, humph! Even when you have galaxy points, don't you dare come to me. I will only be making a loss with your 20% discount on everything as Prime."
Although Theon couldn't move, he still managed to nod his head slightly in response.
She let out a beautiful smile that could dampen the sun. "Good! Now that we've come to an agreement, I think this concludes the lecture."
The invisible pressure was instantly lifted and everyone could finally move. But no one dares to move a muscle and could only watch as the Instructor finally exited the hall. Even after several seconds, no one dared to breathe heavily until after a minute had passed.
Some students couldn't hold it in anymore and collapsed back to their seats in fatigue.
Theon closed his eyes struggling to calm his breathing, but his heart wasn't calm in the slightest with the words of the Instructor. What did she mean he was weaker than the last two prime?
He was almost in the verge of learning blade intent, yet he was still inferior to others? Just what sort of monsters are they?
He had come from nothing and with the aid of his system had he reached this level therefore, Theon wasn't too bothered since he knew he would surpass their level in time.
After several minutes, the students had resumed their usual behavior. Theon didn't try to converse with anyone as he needed to check on his symbiosis regularly. He didn't want for it to die unexpectedly since he didn't have enough money to buy another.
——-
Just as he arrived in his apartment. He was immediately shocked seeing that there wasn't a single drop of blood within the syringe he had left for the symbiosis nor was there any drop of liquid within the tank either!
"I'm not raising a foodie, am I?" Theon grumbled while grabbing a more larger syringe and filling it up with his blood. His body cells regenerate more rapid than before, therefore Theon wasn't scared of fainting due to blood loss.
He then filled half the tank with water once more.
Theon then walked out his room and then into the training room, spending most of the afternoon setting quest and in meditation.
After about three hours of meditating, a blast suddenly echoed as he broke through, becoming a third level genetic soldier.
He clenched his fist and felt his trench increased even more and was satisfied as his primal energy increased by about half.
Solidifying his strength for a few minutes, he then went ahead and checked on his symbiosis, he saw that the entire blood had vanished and even the ha water had disappeared but the strange thing was it had changed color to a deep crimson red.
"it's ready!"
Recolleting the method to merge with the symbiote, Theon brought the tank nearer to himself, unconsciously watching little cute tendrils extend out from the organism body, swaying.
He put off his cloth until he was naked.
He withdrew a blade and using the breathing technique along with the specific wave frequencies, he inhaled sharply. Starting from his palm, he pierced deeply into his skin all the way to his bones, drawing a long line that separate his flesh. It was as though one was unzipping a bag as his flesh spread open.
The spread extended from his palm, to his wrist and the shoulder. Blood dripping rapidly from his arm, Theon didn't let out a single sound of pain as his body was being cut in a weird pattern, as if he was a spectator watching a show.
The blade traveled across his shoulder and extended towards his heart. The cut was slow and specific as he drew a pattern on his heart, careful not to let his ribs disturb his art.
He dragged the blade across the side of his ribs, drawing it towards his leg to the top of his feet. Time elapsed slowly, another pattern running along his other arm all the way to his head, careful not to nick his main artery. It extended towards his back.
Theon was currently like a man who was on the verge of death. But strangely, the amount of blood flowing out from Theon's opened up skin was very little. It was as though he didn't have blood in his body or the something was suppressing them.
'Hmm, I would later need to figure out the technique stopping blood from flowing, would be really useful later.' clearing his thought, he dropped the blade and carefully picked up the symbiote, placing it above his heart.
The symbiote has only touched his skin when it was dived straight into his chest through the pattern moving apart the two flesh.
Theon felt a cooling sensation enter his chest, making his gasp in surprise. He had thought it would be painful, but the cooling sensation of the symbiote was quite relaxing.
But Theon didn't think like that for long. He felt a sharp sting in his heart like thunder had struck his heart. As though that wasn't enough, the sharp sensation occurred in his chest, where the line was and extended according to the lines he had drawn.
Theon inhaled deep sharp breathe as the feeling was as though he was being stabbed by a million knifes! It didn't pale in comparison to the pain he felt during the experimentation process!
"Was I being lied to? It wasn't supposed to be this painful! F*uck!!!" Sweat dropped down his body, some dropping into his opened flesh, causing sharp stinging pain that him curse out in anger while he felt another squirming feeling attach directly to his spine. Causing him great deal of pain.
But one thing Theon was more familiar with was pain, and he could withstand it for a long period of time without giving up. This thought calmed him down and continued the breathing technique until he could no longer feel the symbiote squirming to contain itself within his body.
While he wasn't aware of the meaning of the entire process, he figured that the cut he had created on his body was meant to be a container for the symbiote to reside within. The process was finally completed!
Theon breathed out a sigh of relief, feeling his body back with primal energy, his injuries started to close like a seal and in no time, his flesh has joined back together with not a single scar on his body. No, there was actually a patterned scar on his chest. It refuses to heal no matter how much he stimulate his genes, making Theon frown slightly in the process.
"Now, Into the next phase of my plan-" Theon felt canine throb in pain as his body temperature drop dramatically and a deep intense hunger overwhelmed him as though he hadn't fed for months!
"What is happening!?"
