Chapter 5

Terry's proposal to eat a cake wasn't taken by anyone in the living room.

Exhausted and not exceedingly surprised by her second son's love crisis, Pam returned to a thing more important to her—Sleep.

In the household, Andy was probably the least relevant brother. Not because Pam didn't love him as much as the two others, but rather because he was extremely dense and stubborn.

There was a great saying in the domestic flat, which was that only Andy could help Andy.

Pam had nothing against becoming a grandma prematurely. She often said that. Nevertheless, she didn't wish to see the idiot impregnate his girlfriend simply to settle a dispute.

"What are you going to do now? Terry asked his little brother.

"I don't know, probably study and then sleep; why?" John said curiously.

"Come over to my room after you're done studying. I want to talk to you about something." Terry said with a cheerful smile.

"Okay." John nodded and excused himself after.

Back in his room, John finally decided to inspect something from an hour ago.

[Status]

[Supreme authorities: Gym-boss, Gender-alpha]

[Mutant gene: Masculinity and femininity (Latent)]

John, who summoned transparent windows, suddenly felt like clicking. What came to him after felt natural.

He had a good idea of what 'Status' or 'Panel' meant for reincarnators, so he skipped directly to other windows.

Thankfully though she was cryptic about their marriage and next meeting, Juhachi seemed to have left useful explications for him.

[Supreme authorities (description): Supreme authorities, or supremacies, are skills with unlimited potential. Only two supremes (A husband and wife) can coexist simultaneously, and only they can wield such skills. Other mutants, even if talented, can only hope to achieve godhood. That's because the description of their powers isn't as literal from the start.]

Finally understanding his yet-to-be-consummated marriage with Juhachi, but still a bit confused, John opened his so-called supremacies:

[Gym-boss (description): The gym boss is a chad that can build, transport, and repair gyms easily. Legally or illegally. He can also and often manage them alone, no matter how oversized. The gym boss is filled with stamina and charisma inside a gym. Warning:--This description randomly becomes up to a thousand times more effective under imminent life-and-death circumstances.--]

[Gender-alpha (description): The gender-alpha is a gender gentleman and gender dual-cultivator. Anything related to chad's dignity, anti-ntr sense, anti-ntr tracking, gender culture, and gender pleasures comes easier to him. The way he changes someone else's gender or locks it is above supremacy, the pen or the author (A trillion times stronger) from the start, though...Yes, despite his gender-savviness, the gender-alpha, for cultured reasons, cannot change his very own gender. Warning:--This description randomly becomes up to a thousand times more effective under imminent life-and-death circumstances.--]

"..." Reading the two strange skills, the Irish was speechless. Not just because of the descriptions, no. Somewhat or someway, he understood how to use the skills after reading them once.

Originally nervous about how to awaken his mutant gene and help the family, now he was reassured.

In this world, nobody has more than one mutant gene awakened. And with the additional skills Juhachi apparently gifted him, he didn't have to worry or hurry about his future too much. Or did he?

John asked himself carelessly. Not aware that monarchic divinities would descend on the world in a few years.

In a world where souls could be saved online, one couldn't say if it was a godsend or a mishap...

Yes, walking to his desk to complete some homework, that extremely important detail, was one of the memories John recalled.

What he didn't know was that it was also one of the subjects Terry wanted to talk with him about.

Planning to test one of the powers he saw just now later, he started reading schoolwork about mutant stuff.

His mind, however, wasn't very focused.

Minutes later,

If John Bogard wasn't created because of him, he didn't seem to be a very serious student.

Half done with an assignment, the Irish who took over stopped studying.

Remembering that he needed to go and see his eldest brother in his room, he opened things he was too lazy to check before:

[Mutant gene (description): Something everyone has deep inside their DNA. Sets people on the path of unorthodox skills, longer life, greater strength, intelligence, power, and influence.]

The description of what mutant genes were was vague. And honestly, John thought it was better like that as well.

From his Bogard lectures and Bogard life experience, he felt that the powers one could awaken with mutant genes couldn't all be explained scientifically. And before he landed in this place, he met Juhachi.

[Masculinity and femininity (Latent) (description): Wield masculine and feminine powers. Control and attach masculinity and femininity.]

John was confused reading the next description.

What kind of latent gene was this?
