Multi-Gene

Teela was still a few kilometres away.

Struggling, David managed to withdraw his hands away from Alan's corpse. Using Alan's body, to shield himself, he removed his storage ring and since Alan was dead, there wasn't any protection on it.

David quickly searched through, igniting the treasures within, he saw a pack of Perfect grade Insta-heals at one side.

David immediately two of those vials, chomping on Alan's heart, he gulped down the serum to better swallow the heart.

Immediately, energy started to flow within his body. His dried-up cells and veins started to gain strength again, but that was just about it.

He had a little bit of strength, but that wasn't enough to allow him to fight.

In the blink of an eye, Teela was already near. She walked and stood a few meters away from him.

Thud!

A round shaped object rolled on the floor over to him. David's eyes shifted and he saw what the object was. His eyes squinted and he glanced at Teela who was gazing at him with an odd expression on her face.

"You killed Gordorf?" David's hoarse voice resounded and he sounded truly surprised.

"Hm-hm. " Teela nodded with a smile.

"Weren't you two together?" His eyebrow ls furrowed as he thought of the first time he saw them, they seem to have joined Alan together.

"Not really, he's just an acquaintance."

"Why?"

"Why what?" Teela asked with an innocent expression.

"Why did you kill him?" David's expression was even more serious now.

"I don't know, you tell me." Teela shrugged, wearing a mischievous expression as she bent down towards David.

David rolled his eyes and replied indifferently. "I'm injured and I need to recuperate to heal myself. If you want to kill me, get in with it."

Teela smiled oddly. "This realm is the perfect place to bury you. With the collapse of the God prison, the Realms will collapse too, fragments of the world turning into meteorites in space. Your body won't decompose very quickly, might even take a couple of centuries or millennials for it to decompose, adding to space debris or maybe getting eaten by starving Void Creatures, but..." Teela paused and her gaze towards David turned peculiar.

"But what?" David's expression had darkened by her words but he wanted to listen to her next words.

"But... " She paused and then continued.

"But I didn't expect you have gotten where you are now. When we first met, your talents were just a little bit above the average. You are destined to be mediocre at best, there is no way I could be with someone so low. But hearing about your expenditures and seeing you here, I'm afraid I might have been quick to judge." Teela shook her head slightly, gazing deeply at David.

David frowned. "At the institute? I don't think we've met before." suddenly his eyes squinted. "Who are you?"

Teela raised an eyebrow. "I think you might have already guessed by now."

"Instructor Aella?"

Teela froze and her expression darkened.

Pa!

Her slap immediately turned David face to the ground.

"Hey! What the hell!? How I'm supposed to know who you are when you you're still putting on your disguise!?"

Teela angrily stood up. "I should have just let them kill you, or even kill you myself."

David was indignant. "Alright alright. I know who you are."

Teela's eyes lit up. "Then say it."

David blinked his eyes. "F-Freya?" He stuttered as he asked hopefully correct this time.

Teela's smile froze and her expression instantly darkened.

Pa!

"You fvcking bastard! Just how many women have you slept with!?" Teela stomped her foot to the ground in anger, her leg turning gold.

Creating a large but controlled hole in the ground. One could hear the entire earthquake as a deep endless hole appeared in the ground.

"Hmph! I should just bury you alive in this place." She stretched out her hand and grabbed at David's leg.

David's eyes twitched as he saw the display of strength. And this wasn't even her full strength. But she wanted to bury him alive!

"Wait! Wait! I know now!" David yelled and Teela paused.

"Really?" she blinked her eyes suspiciously at him.

"Yes!" David nodded numbly.

"Say it then. " David nodded and pursed his lips.

"Uhm. It's ehh, Red Thorn?" He could only guess because Red Thorn was the only girl he had slept with, that would want to kill him. But he killed her after realising what was truly happening.

Teela's face dimmed and without saying any more, she grabbed David by the leg and was about to toss him in In the bottomless pit when she heard David say.

"Lyster, stop! I was merely teasing you." David hurriedly confessed.

Teela frowned and released her grip and lightly punched his shoulder. "How could you tease me when you are in this condition?"

"I won't die, my body is stronger than you think." David smiled and softly gripped Teela's hands.

"Why didn't you tell me when we were at the God Cell?" He intertwined their fingers as he asked.

Teela's face blossomed as she smiled prettily. "It's fun just watching you at a distance."

"I know how much you must have suffered, but we will be together now." David smiled as he caressed her hand and then stroked her soft tender skin until he reached her chin.

Teela blushed slightly, feeling goosebumps rising from his touch slightly as she inhaled sharply. "You are a pervert, you know that?"

"I know." David chuckled but then asked. "I'm I worthy of you now, mate?"

Teela gazed at him but didn't say a word as she turned her face towards the ground.

David couldn't help but chuckle. "Why are you acting shy all of a sudden?"

Her glistening eyes raised and glanced at David fiercely. "Who says I'm shy?"

"Is that right? Kiss me then." David dropped his hands and brought his face close to hers.

Teela's smile started to fade and she gazed intensely into David's eyes. "You kiss me."

David didn't hesitate. Or rather, couldn't hesitate. He claimed her lips sharply and his left arm roamed her body. Things got slightly intense from then onwards.
