Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 2288

It wasn't long before the second arrival landed. However, this second arrival came from a group of four, not two. And if Sylas had been there, he would recognize them all too well.

One of them was his master, Gralith. As for the other three, they were none other than his older disciple brothers and sister. However, what was odd was that Gwenu and Khan didn't look as corporeal as Ekear and Gralith looked. It was almost like they were just ghosts.

"Do you feel it?" Ekear asked Khan and Gwenu.

"The Demi-God Plane…" they both said absent mindedly.

"I consider the two of you my little brother and sister. I consider master my father. But there are things that Master knows that you two do not and I believe that it is about time I let you know so that you can make the decision for yourselves.

"My full name is Ekear Nethum. This name likely doesn't mean much to you, and it is no surprise. The Nethum Clan is a Clan of nomads, but we are nomadic in a way that is unique even compared to other similar clans.

"Rather than moving in groups, we are sent out on our own, often without any information of where we originate from, who our parents are, or if we have any family at all, for that matter.

"Those that can make it on their own can make their way back to the Clan and become part of its power. Those that fail are forever stripped of the right and will not ever gain access to their bloodlines again."

There was confusion in Gwenu and Khan's eyes, but they still listened intently. Did this mean their eldest disciple brother came from the Demi-God Plane?

"The reason my Clan does this is because of an extreme form of evolution-chasing. Powerful Clans grow stagnant, they forget what it means to grow and pursue greater heights, they stifle themselves because they would rather hoard what they have instead of chase after something greater.

"My Nethum Clan purges large amounts of its younger generation in order to succeed in doing this."

Gwenu blinked. "But then… why is it that you seem to remember so much?"

Ekear smiled and rubbed Gwenu's head. Despite the fact she was little more than a ghost, he seemed to do so without any problem at all.

"I have a special constitution. My Clan is very strict with how they do things, so they do not thoroughly check youths before they are sent out. In fact, mothers never meet their children either. Even if my mother saw my face now, she would likely only be able to recognize me by my Will alone.

"We have special methods of pulling babies out of our mothers' wombs right before they are ripe for birth.

"The only reason I know as much as I do is because I was conscious from the moment I was conceived. My Will matured much faster than others and was considered Forged before I was even more than a single cell.

"By the time I was pulled from my mother's Will, I already had Marked Will, only a step away from Infinity. Because of this, the usual methods of erasure the Nethum Clan used were effective on my body, but not on my mind.

"I learned a great deal about the Clan before I was shipped away to the Skai Heaven's Mortal Plane. My problem is that because the Nethum Clan's methods were only half effective on me, it could lead to punishment.
