Chapter 25:

A New Beginning .. Part 2

Testament of the Blood Moon


Ichika continues on explaining the abilities and powers
She seems so knowledgeable and passionate about it
Ichika speaks again

“Why yes there is! There are 3 categories of Special Genes!”

“Blood Enhancement, Body Modification and Tissue Fabrication!”

Blood Enhancement is usually using your own blood to create weapons and objects, they are the most common ones and can fall into many different uses!”
“They can be poisonous blood, frozen or boiling and even teleporting in some cases!”
“Some even boost Fabrication and Body Enhancement type Special genes..”

Sounds dangerous…..

Body Modification is pretty self explanatory, it basically modifies your senses and your physical body. Reaction times are quicker and they can be quite formidable, I’ve faced many difficult ones before..”
“Clairvoyance is such a hassle since they can predict your every move based on the flow of blood within your body.. And don’t get me started on the runners...”
“I can go on and on about the different ones I’ve faced in the past..”

“Anyways.”

“Lastly you have Tissue Fabrication, the ability to create objects from organic materials found within your own body such as iron, bone, and tissue. Usually blades and blunt force weapons are created from these..”
"You're body fabricates tissue and can manipulate it into objects.."
“These are least common and usually are handed down or taken from Hexer’s..”
"It's very rare to be born with a Tissue Fabrication Type"
“They are the most dangerous and most difficult to deal with..”

“Hexer Special Genes and Mutations can be very useful in battles..”
“So honing and building them is very necessary for survival..”
“It can literally mean life and death to a Hexer..”

“Anyways.. Let us discuss something else shall we..”

“Im growing weary of this conversation..”

Just like that she stops.. she just got bored and ended it..
Such a mysterious girl. Hopefully I learn more about this later..
I might have to tell Yamada this when he wakes up
Ichika speaks up again

“Selina...”

“If I remember correctly, that concrete slab was only three inches thick”

Ichika chuckled to herself again
Selina was caught by surprise..

“I was still new and hadn't trained yet at that time!”
“Now I’m a lot stronger and can break through any wall I want!”

“Very impressive for a fresh blood!”

“Well of course it is, no other Hexer’s can do something like that without training!”

Ichika’s teasing and Selina’s pride are a tough combination but that’s just how you know they love each other”
Setsuna now asked the question once again

“So anyways, Ichika what is your special gene?”

“Yeah Ichika, tell her your special gene and let her decide which one sounds cooler

Ichika pauses and looks at Setsuna
Ichika clears her throat and wipes her mouth with a clean napkin

“My special gene is called the Crimson Familiar.

“I’m able to separate my blood from my body and create any type of ‘Blood Familiar’ I want.”
"Since you're heart is a 'living' stone now, you can speak to it, make deals with it and even befriend it."
"You have to be careful though, it's still pure evil and can take over your whole nervous system and hijack your body if not careful.."
"I simply use my heart to fight 'alongside' me in battle."
"I conjure the familiar and my Heart-stone controls it by having a small thread attached to me and the familiar. That thread is the life line of the familiar and if broken, the blood will collapse and I could most likely die depending on how much blood I use for the familiar.."
"The thread can be as small as a needle or as big as my waist, depending on me"
"It's very powerful but it has many setbacks so I refrain from using it too much, I can also begin to suffocate or die of hypothermia if too much blood is being used for it.."
“It's very useful though because it helps support my boyfriend’s Special Gene”

She really has a lot to say doesn't she..?
Wait, did she say boyfriend?

“Wait, you have a boyfriend!?”
“And he's a Hexer to?”

Selina laughed out loud

“Hahahaha!”
“Now we’re finally having some girls talk!”
