Animeverse Slayer!
Chapter 52 - 52. Different Paths
Biologically modified?
Seeing Leo's confused look Sam explained, "Extraordinaries that awaken naturally are rare, maybe two or three in ten. The agents you saw are what we call artificial Extraordinaries."
"By using a serum they are forcefully awakened. However this isn't without drawbacks, an artificial Extraordinary must go through several rounds of biological modification if they want to awaken as one."
"Even then the success rate of becoming one is very low."
Leo exclaimed, "That's amazing."
Sam shook his head, "Not at all. Though artificial agents can be created with a serum their potential is halved. They can never catch upto a natural Extraordinary."
"Oh, why?"
Sam thought for a moment and said, "I don't know the technical explanation but here is what I understand. The serum forcefully alters the body makeup, this forceful change damage their body on a cellular level."
"However a natural Extraordinary is different. Their awakening is a result of years of constant change in their DNA."
Leo nodded. A natural Extraordinary goes through change right after their birth. Their awakening is like a puzzle that takes years to complete. When the final piece is placed they awaken.
But an artificial Extraordinary is different. They don't go through such a long process and experience awakening abruptly. This damages their core and thus limits their future.
After hearing Sam's explanation Leo was curious and asked, "Who came up with the serum?"
Sam hesitated for a moment and said, "Patrick, a brilliant scientist came up with it. He was a natural Extraordinary who had the ability to analyse materials. He was smart and capable, by using his ability he analysed hundreds of different blood samples from Extraordinaries and came up with a serum to create Extraordinaries artificially."
"Though the serum has drawbacks it was still a glorious achievement."
Leo let the information sink in and asked, "Do you categorise Extraordinaries based on their strength?"
Sam nodded, "Yes. Extraordinaries are classified into five levels, Class, D, C, B, A and S."
Leo roughly understood how the Dark Light works and it's power structure.
Sam explained some more details and asked, "Now can you tell me how you were able to smash a hole in my building and create a huge pit on the ground and still come out unscathed?"
Hearing his question Leo chuckled, "I see, you used whatever information I had as a leverage to obtain permission to share your info."
Sam didn't deny and nodded.
Leo thought for a while and said, "It's not like it's a secret or anything, we use Breathing Techniques. These techniques provide huge volume of oxygen to our body, increasing strength and speed and thus allowing us to fight demons."
He went on to explain how it works. By the time he finished Sam sighed and said sincerely, "Your ancestors were amazing people."
Leo accepted his compliment and asked.
"What next?"
Sam shrugged, "That depends on you."
Leo asked, "Is there any way you can get me back to my country?"
Sam leaned on his chair and rapped it's armrest, "It's not like there isn't but the problem is this."
He rubbed his fingers.
Leo asked, "Money?"
Sam nodded, "Yes. Legally speaking you have no right to be on this land but since we are on the same trade we can ignore that. The problem is, if you want to get back, money is needed and not a small amount."
Leo, "How much?"
Sam raised his fingers and said, "Five hundred dollars. I can't smuggle you as there aren't any sh.i.p.s going such a long way, so that leaves us with the legal route. I can use my connections to obtain doc.u.ments and a ticket for your ride."
Leo folded his hand infront of his c.h.e.s.t and sighed, "And now I work for you?"
Sam smiled widely, "Hey, it's a trade. For your services I get you a ride back home, it's fair."
Leo looked at him for a moment and laughed out loud. He shook Sam's hand and agreed.
Leo thought for a moment and asked, "When is my ride leaving?"
Sam, "In about five months."
Leo rolled his eyes, "So I only got less than five months to earn five hundred dollars."
Sam patted his shoulder, "Don't worry. Though natural Extraordinaries are rare, in such a large population they are still plenty. And crimes aren't low, if you can take care of them the monetary rewards would be enough for you to go back. A Class D Extraordinary will sack you 5 dollar, Class C 15 dollar, Class B 30 dollar and Class A 60."
Leo asked back, "What about Class S?"
Sam explained, "Class S has no fixed value. In fact apart from Class D and C, the other classes may also give higher remuneration. During reward allocation the damage to public property, number of agents deployed, death and other factors are calculated. If all of them are the b.a.r.e minimum or lower, you rewards will be higher."
Leo, "And how do you know which level these Extraordinaries are?"
Sam took out a small device from his table and said, "This will turn into different colours when it locks onto a target. White represents D, Yellow C, Blue B, Red A, Black S."
Leo took the small device from Sam and examined with his spiritual sense. This device worked a lot like a signal receiver, only it picked upon on energy waves from an Extraordinary.
Leo didn't need Sam's explanation. He had already figured it out when he checked it with his spiritual sense.
Sam, "Alright then, the sun is about to shine on us so I am going to get some shut eye. After I wake up I will assign someone to show you your room and take you around."
Leo said, "Ok."
Sam yawned and walked away. Leo looked around and found the other men tidying up, only a couple of people stayed up in case of an emergency situation.
~sigh~ looks like I am gonna be here for a while.
He walked back to where he slept before and laid down before slowly sinking into darkness.
