Coming out from the huge lecture hall, David found an empty seat at the edge of the building and sat on it as he opened up his interface.

Instantly, a few rays of light flew out from his wrist, where his imprint was located at. His interface arranged themselves right in front of him. Although he could clearly see the details carefully, others could only roughly see a rainbow made of lights.

Opening up his library, he found the book he was looking for. INTRODUCTION TO THE GENES. It was written at the beginning of the massive book. David was put in despair once again as he saw the huge book.

Flipping open the cover, David began to skim through them with his eyes and then flipped the page to the next page. He had only two hours to delay after which he must leave for the old man's place. Otherwise, the old man would suspect that something was wrong somewhere.

"What the hell in hade's nine hells are you doing?" an expressionless voice sounded from behind David in a deep surprised tone.

Nihyuh emerged from the crowds of students exiting the hall. He was dumbfounded at what he saw. He couldn't help but blink his eyes in disbelief.

David who would hardly read the instructions manual unless being forced to had taken a book and was unexpectedly reading it. It had given Nihyuh a slight shock.

Although he was unable to see what David was doing, but from David's actions, he could vaguely see that David was reading.

"Can you not disturb me right now? I'm really busy and don't have enough time to talk to you." David frowned as he waved his hand at Nihyuh and continued to read the book.

Nihyuh chuckled and he stride David's front. Intending to see if David was truly serious with it.

But was surprised that even after several seconds, David's eyes never left the book he was reading. He wasn't even aware Nihyuh was still before him and was thoroughly immersed in what he was reading..

With a slight sneer Nihyuh left as he had something to attend to. Otherwise he would have waited to see through David's charade.

Roughly an hour and a half later, David packed up his things when he was reminded by the timer he had set earlier, and called for transport. He waited for a few seconds as he continued to flip through the book.

Suddenly, David seem to have reached the last page of the book, he opened his library and place the book into it while also grabbing another book.

It was the third time he had switched the books.

As soon as he spotted the Cruiser that came for him, he alighted on the ship when it landed before him, still reading the book on the way.

Roughly 20 minutes later, David exited the Sky Cruiser. He breathed out roughly as he stared nervously at the familiar white building in front of him.

Shaking his body, he followed the familiar route he had taken previously and ended up at the familiar wooden door.

Knocking on them heavily. "Why don't you just break down the door while you're at it?" David smiled slightly when he heard the familiar voice of his master.

Swinging open the door, he casually strode in as replied "I could do that but I don't want to break that fragile heart of yours, so I just let it be." David shrugged and grabbed the chair, sitting on it with familiarity.

"Alright I'm here old man. Have you finally decided to give me the gadgets you promised?" David's eyes lit up and he leaned on the table with hope in his expression.

"Hehe. Do you think I would actually waste such precious things on you with that mouth of yours?" the white haired man sneered.

"Don't kid your self." He snorted and rolled his eyes at David as he adjusted his glasses.

"How is your progress on the books I gave you earlier?" Mr White asked finally.

David felt his heart clenched a little bit he replied casually. "It's going well, really well actually." He leaned back in the chair.

"Oh! Is that so? Then you wouldn't mind me asking you a bit of questions right?" Mr White finally revealed his trump card.

David's face twitched slightly and he felt his heart drop. Although he had expected something like that to happen. He had hoped the man would be so kind to not ask.

"Sure, ask away. It wasn't as though I wasn't reading the book throughout the week." His voice was beginning to shake a little, showing he was slightly nervous.

The man gazed at David suspiciously and stared at David for several seconds but David didn't shy down, he was shameless to begin with.

The old man finally relented and then said. "Alright, Since you accepted to be questioned, i shouldn't disappoint you."

"Define Gene Editing in your own understanding and do not think of cheating with your AI, I have deactivated your Imprint anyways." He added as he asked.

David smiled bitterly in his heart. Even if he wanted to cheat, there was still the case if Hazel would actually help him in achieving it.

Unconsciously, he opened his mouth to respond. " Genome Editing is a method that lets genetics change the DNA of many organisms, including plants, mutants, and animals. Basic techniques in Editing DNA can lead to changes in slight physical traits, like eye colors , and body structures. Genetists use different technologies to do this. A common form of Gene editing relies on the concept of DNA double stranded break (DSB) replacement mechanics. There are two major pathways that replaces DSB; non-homologous double end joining (NHDEJ) and homology directed repair (HDR). NHDEJ uses a variety of enzymes to directly join the DNA ends while the more accurate homology directed replace uses a homologous sequence as a template for regeneration of missing DNA sequences at the break point."

Silenced reigned in the small office as the white haired man gaped at David in astonishment. What David had just stated was the textbook explication of Gene Editing. He had expected David to just spew out some random words or nonsense but he had never expected to memorize the whole explanation.

David was also surprised as couldn't stop himself either. He was totally confused as to where those words came from.

Being very suspicious, Mr White checked his imprint and saw that he had truly deactivated David's imprint.

He then opened his mouth to ask another question. "Define DNA drift for me."

"Genetic drift also known as DNA adaptation is the change in the frequency of an existing gene either variant or original in a population due to random sampling of that organisms. The genomes in the subject are a sample of those in the parents, and chance has a role in determining whether a given individual survives and reproduces. In simple terms, it means the mutation of a population of organisms happening due to chance and other factors.

For example, the Herbivorous Tiger variant had evolved and drifted from their original path and only depend on eating grass and herbs to survive." David couldn't stop himself and he opened his mouth and spoke out words he himself couldn't believe he had said.

If some one had told him a while ago that he was this smart. David was pretty sure he would immediately request a Duel and beat the person up for mocking his intelligence.. Yup, he knew his limits and these was just too much for him.
