Chapter 2 Another near-dead experience? For real?

From what I saw thanks to the memories of 72, this power could only barely change the genes inside the human body, and if one wished to completely change a gene inside one body, basically making him able to copy the genes of an animal or another human being, he or she had to possess a body strong enough to resist the process of destruction and recreation.

And considering how my body can only be compared to a wood stick, for now, I will only try to apport basic genetic changes to my body.

In all those years, 72, because of the perfectionists, became a being comparable to the greatest geniuses if we talk about genetics and human biology, and all that knowledge is now mine.

My first test is of removing the ABCC11 gene, which determines axillary body odor and the amount of earwax produced by adding the 538G>A a single-nucleotide polymorphism, resulting in a loss of body odor, making my body lose all of its smell, apart for the one coming from the clothes, and permanently removing the smell I would produce from sweating.

My first test didn't work, only causing my body to suddenly start sweating like never before, fortunately, I am wearing black clothes and it can't be seen unless you look for the sweat.

After a few more tries I was finally able to do it, basically making me unlock a new power, by removing all the types of waste inside my body.

And I did just in time because as soon as I reopened my eyes Katsuki came back inside with the school nurse.

" Just check on him, he is strange." He shouted at the nurse, trying to hold back from cursing her and blowing her away.

" For the last time, he doesn't have any type of symptoms, his body is actually in a better state than ever, so let me go home." She said with exasperation inside her voice.

Before Katsuki could talk again, I began to speak.

" I am feeling much better, so with your permission, I will go back home," I said while removing the sheets bed I sat on, and taking my backpack from the chair on the left of the bed.

" Yes, you can go, just try to eat some proteins and drink some milk, you are smaller than kids of your age." The nurse said while sitting on the chair in front of her desk.

I bowed and then rushed out of the infirmary, not wanting to deal with Katsuki, and worried that Mom could get sad because I am late.

While going home I began to think about other secondary genes that could make my future training easier.

First should be getting both the Herculean Gene, which makes easier the growth of muscle in the body, and duplicate the genes in the chromosome Xq26 which would make me grow taller way faster than others, but I will have to remove it after a while or I would get too tall, anotehr important step is to change the color of all my muscles to pink muscles, boosting both my explosive strength and endurance, and after my muscles become strong enough, the next step is making my bones denser by using the engrailed homeobox-1 gene, which plays a central role in regulating bone density, I will just need to manipulate it and my bones would get denser than before by at least 5 times after I gain enough experience how to use biokinesis the next step would be to upgrade my brain, more specifically I would need to manipulate several genes that partially boost human intelligence when my brain becomes stronger the last step is to boost all of my 5 senses, all the remaining boost would only be secondary, but still useful to make the perfect body, and the more my biokinesis grows stronger the more my body can grow without a limit.

Since it was already pretty late, I decided to take a shortcut.

I am walking through a secluded steer when suddenly something tings inside my head, and by leaping forward I am barely able to avoid a deep green slime with a mouth and two eyes from covering me.

" Fuck, you stupid kid should have just stayed put, now the possession will hurt more."

Before he even moves something again things inside my head, telling me to evade to the left, I follow the instruction, and I am barely able to evade the green mass, it only scratching my cheek.

'What is happening, is it like a spider tingle? No this is more precise, I perfectly know where the thing is going to move and attack, is it because of my stronger soul? Is it like that old anime where the soul could be used in three different ways?'

And my assumption was correct, I can evade all of the attacks of the monster, but since my body is still sore and weak I can't fully keep up with the warnings, and I am only barely able to evade, causing some bruises to form on my cheeks and some cut on my clothes.

If I continue like this I won't last long, I have to do something.

After evading another attack, I take a paper cutter out from my backpack, and the moment he leaps again towards me I throw my backpack against his face, luckily hitting him on one of his eyes, stunning him for a second, which gives me enough to pierce the eye of the thing with my paper cutter.

Green blood begins to fall from the pierced eye, and his screams warn me that if I don't run away right now, I am surely dead.

I run in the other direction, inside my head tingles and tingles continue to sound, warning me that the slime is still chasing me.

The tingles get stronger and stronger, meaning that it is getting closer, and when the tingles get to their peak it suddenly stops and a very strong wind force hits my back making me fall to the ground.

I turn back to see who caused the wind, and I see a very muscular man wearing military green pants, a white shirt, and black shoes, with golden spiky hairs and a white 32 toothed smile.

" All Might," I say recognizing the hero, that once was my greatest inspiration.

Yes, once, after realizing the existence of different universes, seeing beings strong as that being, and aging 324 years of a tormented soul, things such as fanboying a man in spandex became quite childish.

"AHAHAHAHA NO WORRIES YOUNG ONE, THE VILLAIN HAS BEEN SUBDUED."(While in caps he is in buffy form) He said while showing me the green slime missing an eye, inside a glass jar.

" I HAVE TO SAY TOUGH YOU WERE VERY BRAVE IN HOLDING BACK THE VILLAIN FOR SUCH A LONG TIME, IF I CAN ASK, WHAT IS YOUR QUIRK?" He asks me while putting away the glass jar on his side pocket.

"I... I have a quirk called precognition, it warns me of incoming danger and how it will hit me, but it only warns a few seconds before it happens." I said, telling him I am quirkless would attract more attention than I need, and it's not like I will ever meet him again.

"QUITE A STRONG QUIRK, BE SURE TO TRAIN, AND MAYBE YOU MIGHT ONE DAY BECOME THE NUMBER ONE HERO AND THE NEXT SYMBOL OF PEACE." He said ending his speech with a loud laugh, I simply nodded.

" WELL THEN, NOW I HAVE TO GO, I HOPE TO MEET YOU AGAIN YOUNG HERO." He said, and before I could respond he had already leaped away towards the roof of a distant building.

I finally take a breath of relief, two near-death experiences were more than in just a day.

I walk towards the backpack I had thrown before, I put all my things back inside and I continued my walk back home, I still have to walk for 20 minutes, but not wanting any other type of incident I decided to take the main streets this time.
