Chapter 9
After waking up I checked my status to see what it was after eating the two forest squirrels and gaining 15 more ordinary points.
Jaden Senju Sen: Not Evolved.
Status: None
Life span: 200 years.
Required for evolution: 100 geno points.
Geno Points Gained: 32 Ordinary Geno Points, 6 Primitive Geno Points.
I started practicing my Yin -Art like I do every morning and ate the last forest squirrel I had left gaining only 3 ordinary geno points this time.Bringing my Ordinary Geno points to 35 and I knew that forest squirrels would no longer give me any geno points. I realized it was 7:30 am after leaving my room and seeing the sun dial that was nearby so I decided to go and hunt for a couple hours to catch some food for lunch after eating the creatures in the sanctuary contained a type of energy that helped speed up mental fatigue and stamina even when it doesn't give geno points.
This time when I was leaving the shelter I moved towards the way I heard contained copper toothed creatures that were ordinary with a rare primitive creature found in there area.
Making it to the copper toothed creatures area I hunted two already when I decided to leave and return to the shelter so that I could practice my Yin-Art before eating lunch, however out of the corner of my eye I saw a two primitive rainbow butterflies and a primitive copper toothed creature which wasn't weird since this area was near were I'd hunted the four albino caterpillars the day before. The two rainbow butterflies were trying to hunt the primitive copper toothed creature, but the two rainbow butterflies had an confusion powder that made the copper toothed creature miss it's attacks but they had no attack methods that could get past the copper fur on its body.
The fight was going on for fifth-teen minutes and the copper toothed creature was getting tired and was slowing down while the rainbow butterflies were also wobbling in the air from using their confusion powder over and over again.
I summoned my primitive crossbow and arrow and took aim at the copper tooth creature first since it could probably still escape to a place with more copper tooth creatures and I still wanted to return to the shelter to practice my Yin-Art before eating lunch and meeting up with Yang Manli.
I took a deep breath and slowly released it before pulling the trigger hitting it right in the eye as it was leaping to attack one of the rainbow butterflies embedding a tiny amount of lightning into the arrow for extra measure which was unnecessary since it pierced right through its left eye killing it instantly.
"Primitive Creature Primitive Copper Toothed Creature killed. No Beast Soul Gained. Eat its meat to gain zero to ten primitive geno points randomly."
After hearing the voice in my head I summoned my arrow with back and shot the arrow added with lightning at one of the two rainbow Butterflies piercing the wing so I wouldn't have to aim carefully once it fell paralyzed to the ground and them after summoning my arrow I shot the other one while the other one was still confused at the death at the sudden death of both the copper toothed creature and its mate hitting it in the head killing it as well.
"Primitive Creature Primitive Rainbow Butterfly killed. No Beast Soul Gained. Eat its meat to gain zero to ten primitive geno points randomly."
"Primitive Creature Primitive Rainbow Butterfly killed. Beast Soul Gained. Eat its meat to gain zero to ten primitive geno points randomly."
Once it fell instead of moving I finished off the other one that was recovering from the paralysis from the small amounts of lightning that was embedded into the arrow before picking up the three creatures corpses and returning to the shelter.
It was now 9:35 am I threw the two ordinary copper toothed creature in a pot to make a stew and made the primitive copper toothed creature into jerky and would eat the rainbow butterflies raw after cleaning and draining their blood.
I then started practicing my Yin-Art for two hours before then eating the two Rainbow Butterflies gaining 5 and 6 geno points for a total of 11 primitive geno points from the two.
Jaden Senju Sen: Not Evolved.

Geno Points Gained: 32 Ordinary Geno Points, 17 Primitive Geno Points.
When I was done practicing my Hyper Geno-Art and eating I checked on the Primitive Beast Soul I got from one of the Rainbow Butterflies.
Beast soul gained: Primitive Rainbow Butterfly.
Type of primitive beast soul Primitive Primitive Rainbow Butterfly: Flying and Confusion Powder.
Summoning the beast soul I saw it was a pair of rainbow colored butterfly wings and when I flapped them and willed it it would release some confusion powder which didn't effect the one that equipped the beast soul.
Seeing it it was more suitable for a girl I even had the thought of having Yang Manli trying it on. She probably wouldn't think it was funny.
When I was done checking on my beast soul I made my way to the Bullseye gangs training where they are when their not hunting groups of mutant creatures or Sacred-Blood creatures.
It was 12:00pm now exactly when Yang Manli told me to meet up with her to see if she was flooded with work or had some free time.As I walked through the door the first person I saw was Liu Hongtao who was upset because yesterday he happened to see me return to the shelter side by side with Yang Manli who he had a crush on and was courting.
Liu Hongtao: "Look who it is the pretty boy, why'd you return and didn't even knock this time didn't I tell you people cant just walk into places that are related to the military."
Jaden: "It seems you haven't heard i'm now part of the gang now and will be the one in charge of the medical group that's being created to ensure more people are rescued in time during expeditions to hunt mutant and sacred-blood creatures. I'll be the one responsible for patching up any injuries emergency surgeries and or bringing people to a stable condition so that they can survive the travel back to the shelter to then be delivered to an hospital with the needed medical machines, medicines,and needed personnel. "
Liu Hongtao: "What? What qualifications do you have to be in charge of this important division?"
Jaden: "I'm pretty certain that Qin Xuan or Yang Manli will explain all of that to the entire gang when she has everyone gathered and everything becomes official. Am I right Yang Manli?"
Yang Manli stopped for a second in surprise before walking up to the group from behind Jaden were the stairs were at.
Yang Manli: "He's right,and I'm sure I told you to be more respectful.The news about the new division will be shared in tomorrow's briefing until then keep a lid on this info.Come on Jaden Qin Xuan wishes to speak to you before we leave."
We then went to Qin Xuan's office.
Qin Xuan: "Why is it you cause such trouble just by entering a room?"
Jaden: "Jealousy?"
I answered while rubbing my chin with a questioning look on my face like I was uncertain.
Qin Xuan: "Ha, back to what's important. I managed to get something similar to what you want and it may be better early on its a sacred-blood crystal turtle pet and since we couldn't get you exactly what you want and in order to keep the head of our new medical division satisfied, which by the way is a good idea otherwise I wouldn't put it in action we have a sacred-blood shield which floats around the wielder and can teleport within ones vision to protect both yourself and others. So does this meet your conditions to have you join us?"
Jaden: "Yeah, that's actually better than I'd hoped for, you now have a professional doctor and surgeon as part of your gang which will also help with getting volunteers to join your gang especially after I've proved my medical and surgical skills showing my worth to the rest of the gang."
Accepting the two Sacred-Blood Beast Souls the thing that made me have to hold my excitement down was that the sacred-blood crystal turtle pet was heavy and had incredible defense in the form of it's shell but the thing that almost made it impossible to hide my joy was that it wasn't evolved meaning there was a chance it could become a super creature in the future after a lot of investing and work put into it.
Yang Manli: "Alright them lets go and hunt together to raise and max out at least your ordinary geno points before the next hunting expedition so your not seen as some weak guy that hides behind the others at least you'll be able to show off your martial arts and weapon skills on the way against some primitive creatures."
Jaden: "Oh,so you don't want me to embarrass you don't worry I also don't want to embarrass you or my self, or it'll worsen my chances at getting you as my girlfriend."
Yang Manli was shocked at the fact that I would tell her that I was courting her right to her face with some back bone instead of the suck up way Liu Hongtao was going about showing that he liked her that made her despise him but she couldn't say that as it would make the team form an awkward atmosphere. Even Qin Xuan was shocked she was one of the only people that knew she had a sweet side but her standards were high and she was told not to settle for less.
Yang Manli: "Humph, lets go and start the day when you've maxed out your mutant geno points you can say it again as right now your too weak."
Although that attitude and high standard was what turned many off it was mostly a self defense method to hide her shyness and this was actually the first time that someone said they liked her and wanted her as a girlfriend. Everyone else fell back and gave up after seeing her cold attitude and thought she was stuck up and had other negative opinions about her.
Jaden: "Yes, yes lead the way my Miss General ah I mean I'll follow you anywhere ma'am"
While giving a standard military salute how ever she could clearly see that he was teasing her and was being his usual cheeky self but still showed emotions in his eyes that told her he wasn't kidding or playing with her feelings that his confession was serious about pursuing her romantically.
This small exchange between the two brought a smirk to her face since this was something she could use to tease her best friend and make her thaw out a bit and learn to hang out and have fun on occasion at least with her as childhood friends.
After Yang Manli and I left the shelter I informed her that I hunted earlier and the creatures I'd already eaten, and asked her about other locations to hunt.
Yang Manli: "How are you able to eat so much without the energy causing damage to your body and if continued cause blood to come from your facial orifices and if one still continues they could even explode?"
Jaden: "It's probably because of the Hyper Geno Art that only I can use, and maybe my future descendants, I'm not sure but it improves the brain function,mental energy,and all of the person's senses but after each two hour training session it uses all of my energy similar to studying all day making me hungry again so I train it before each meal."
Realizing he told her another one of his secrets she understood how much he trusted her and liked her though she didn't know why as they only knew each other a couple days now,how could she know he fell for her immediately at first sight and knew she was his soulmate.
They'd been hunting for four hours before returning to the shelter.They returned after hunting four boneless Sapphire fish that were only ordinary creatures, a primitive Grass Snake that had tried to sneak attack us, and two primitive Quartz Scorpions that were on the edge of the cave opening.
If anyone saw the one known as the Ice Queen they'd be surprised to see she could show such an expression or any other one besides the cold one she always showed . However no one had seen it because she returned to her cold expression after getting near the shelter.
Jaden: "I'm glad I'm one of the few to see your other expressions. I'm especially over the moon that I'm the only non-family member or female childhood friend to see your emotions and hope to be the only one to see your cute side and loving emotions."
This caused Yang Manli to blush. If it was any other person they wouldn't have the guts to look her in the eye or at her directly and wouldn't notice it missing this Ice Queen become the beautiful,shy, and cool girl she always was below the exterior.
Jaden then flicked her forehead which caused her to glare at him and feel wronged.
Jaden: "What if someone else saw you blush I would have to kill them and get rid of the body as their heart would instantly be entrapped in some type of spell."
She realized he was teasing her again,and her words made her realize how many more expressions and emotions she'd showed to some'd known just for for two days and hunting for four hours today while talking.
Once they reached the shelter entrance they went their separate ways, but Yang Manli realized she wanted to talk and hang out with him longer. She felt reluctant that the day was over and that she had work to do in the mornings until noon and couldn't hand out again until then. Thinking she could see him again tomorrow though did make her happy however you couldn't tell with her cold expression.
