Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 2275

Sylas waved a hand and his mother vanished.

Then he turned around, with the same slow, unbothered steps, he crossed the threshold until he stood before a man who once stood as tall as he had.

His father was 6'3", easily. But Sylas had shot up far beyond that, the changes to his body, bloodline, and his various actions across the universe having fundamentally changed him.

Now, Sylas stood even taller than before, crossing the barrier to 6'10" and seemingly approaching as much as seven feet tall. It wasn't that he wanted to be that tall, but instead that with the potential of his body constantly being leached out, there was a certain point where the power couldn't be contained within himself anymore.

His father, though, seemed to be radiating a deathly sort of aura, so focused and primed he looked like he would kill at the slightest provocation.

There wasn't the slightest scent of fear on his Will, a deep resounding confidence coming from him.

Seeing this, Sylas honestly hesitated. That was twice now. First his mother, now his father.

He wondered if it was a mistake to coddle them. Maybe he should have let them fight their own battles. But their situation now was his fault.

If he had been better, if he hadn't slipped up, nobody would have been able to just take them like this. Sylas stood there in silence for a long while, but in the end, he reached a finger forward, and the same scene played out once again.

With a wave of his hand, his father vanished.

When he was finished, Sylas took a step and began to walk into the skies. He looked like he had no desire to explain anything and no interest in staying here. Whatever these people wanted to do, it had nothing to do with him now.

Sylas' steps suddenly stopped. Elder Bash appeared across from him, a smile on his face. He leaned forward a bit, his hands still clasped behind his back.

"Step out of the way, Elder Bash."

Surprisingly, it was Cheri who spoke, her gaze cold and sharp. There seemed to be a completely different air to her when she wasn't walking around nearly naked. Even her hair was held back in a single streaming ponytail that followed in a snake-like pattern behind her as though it was just one strand instead of a bundle of countless thousands.

Elder Bash blinked out of curiosity and then looked toward Cheri.

"Oh? You want to stop me? How amusing." Elder Bash said with a laugh. "You know how brash I am, do you think I fear Legacy?"

Cheri's eyes narrowed.

She understood more about the inner workings of the guilds than Sylas did, so when she saw Elder Bash, she knew the purpose of his existence. He was sent as a probe.

Not only was he powerful, standing at the height of Legend, but he was known for always marching to the beat of his own drum regardless of the circumstances.
