Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 601

Chapter 601: Shared Class [Bonus]

"Do you and your wife share the same Class?"

Cole's heart skipped a beat, shocked that it only took Sylas a single glance at his status screen to understand this. It hadn't even been more than two or three seconds. He couldn't fathom how something like this could even be deduced.

Cole took a breath. "We do."

"It's symbiotic." Sylas said more as a statement than a question.

"It is."

"And your son?"

"He has a Class of his own..." Cole said a bit bitterly.

His son's Class was what had gotten them into this mess in the first place. Or, rather, it was the reason their son was lying half dead on the ground while his parents were just fine.

After they got the Twin Moon Healer Class that they shared, their son had ended up choosing a Class that could be used to protect them, insisting on it. He gained a much weaker Common Class as a result, and his main focus was just playing the vanguard so that he could protect his Healer parents.

However, it wasn't until later that they realized this Healer Class wasn't nearly as simple as it looked and their son had made an unnecessary sacrifice.

The boy, though, was stubborn. Plus, it was already much too late to change things, so they could only support him to the best of their abilities.

Most of their resources ended up being poured into their son to help him grow stronger. If they had absolute strength like Cole felt Sylas did, he would just protect his son to his back. But after their government learned of their Class and wanted to take them in and control them, their lives were flipped upside down.

"Your stats are halved." Sylas said again.

Cole was almost numb to the surprise, but once again, he nodded.

"Interesting..."

Sylas had never heard of such a thing before, but when he gazed at Cole's wife, he could feel the subtle link between the two. At first, he had mistaken it for just the normal closeness between husband and wife. It was only natural that they have some synergy and resonance between one another in normal day-to-day interaction.

But to think it was actually this.

"Why did you send me this?" Sylas asked.

"You are the only one that can take us out of here."

"Don't lie to me." Sylas said coldly.

Cole grit his teeth. "You took the gold coin and nothing else. That's more than I can say for what most others would do."

It was true. The moment others saw that he had one valuable thing, what would be there to stop them from checking on their other valuable things?
