My Gene System

Chapter 3 - Fight Inside The Body



Several days had passed when Riku was electrocuted by a strong electric current. But the real question here is, where did he get the deep scratches on his body?

"How is Riku\'s condition, Haru?" Akio inquired the man next to him, concerned about his son that was lying on the ground.

"He hasn\'t woken up yet, Master Akio." Haru responded with a weak tone, then noticed Akio\'s deep eyes. "Master Akio, you must rest; Riku will require your assistance once he awakens."

He shook his head slowly, determined to stay in this place at all costs. "No, I didn\'t know how I was going to die if something bad happened to him."

This was an expected reaction from a father like Akio. Also, despite the fact that he was preoccupied with his business, he loved his son more than himself. What did the rest of the ordinary people hope for...

"I understand, Master Akio; if you simply need something, let me know." Haru will not force him, but he was looking at the blond woman who was being guarded by the tough guards. "Riku\'s fiancee, Master Akio, had arrived."

Yui Sano was her name. She had blond hair, crystal eyes, a beautiful face, and a sexy body that could entice anyone with a single glance. On top of that, she came from a wealthy family.

Haru, on the other hand, knew that this woman was the only one who cared about Riku. Because the marriage that would occur to them was a fixed marriage. But Haru, couldn\'t take away the truth that this woman was kind.

"Where is Riku, Father Akio? What happened to him?!" When she arrived at the location, she immediately began questioning Akio.

"Riku attempted to awaken his genes, but an electric current shook him," Akio explained.

After seeing Riku\'s condition through the transparent window, the tears in the corners of her eyes dripped.

"What did the doctor say? When will he awaken?" Yui inquired, then prepared to enter the room, but Haru stopped her. "What are you doing, Haru? Allow me to depart."

Yet, Haru was determined to obstruct her path. "I\'m sorry, lady Yui, but the doctor has stated that no one will be allowed to enter beside them."

Yui wiped her tears and asked. "Why? I just want to double-check him. In this kind of situation, I know Riku requires my assistance."

He still shook his head, a worried expression on his face. "Yes, lady Yui, I am aware of it. But master Riku is in a precarious situation; his genes are open, and if you enter, there\'s a strong possibility your genes will enter him, and he\'ll die if that happens." Haru elaborated.

At this point, Yui can\'t stop herself from hugging Haru as she couldn\'t do anything to help his fiance.

"Master Riku will be fine, lady Yui. You shouldn\'t stress yourself."

After 12 hours, Akio and Yui decided to take a break. Because Akio hadn\'t slept for four days and Yui had just arrived from America.

Haru remained at the hospital, staring at Riku from a distance. "Master Akio, please wake up; all of us are waiting for you."

Haru shifted his gaze to the left side, where he detected footsteps.

"Fuji..." He was hoping that by seeing this man, he would find out what had happened to Riku.

"How\'s Riku, Haru?" Fuji asked, then stood next to him.

"He hasn\'t woken up yet... We\'re all worried because the doctor didn\'t find the root cause of his coma." He paused for a couple of seconds and asked him. "Do you find anything, Fuji?"

Fuji gave him a friendly nod. "Yeah... But I\'m still not convinced."

Haru\'s brow furrowed. "We need some information from you, Fuji." Even if it is only a conclusion."

Fuji recognized Haru\'s current state of mind, so he kept his cool and approached him politely. Haru, I believe Riku is fighting his genes... Riku wished to manifest it, but his gene was preventing him from doing so. If this continues, his mana pool will most likely be destroyed, and he will lose the opportunity to become mutant-like us."

Haru turned to face him, a solemn expression on his face. "Can you tell me, Fuji, what he needed to do to regain consciousness?"

"If Riku really wanted to become a mutant, he had to fight."

Haru knew that no matter what happened, Riku would never surrender in this type of situation, but he couldn\'t rule out the worst-case scenario, so he asked.

"W-What if he can\'t because of the fight for his body?" Haru stammer

"He\'ll remain in a coma and wait for him to awake. But one thing is certain: if that happens, he will not become a mutant." As stated by Fuji.

The conversation had come to an end, and Fuji was about to leave when he noticed Riku\'s condition. "Haru, I\'ll not be here for a long time. Please notify me if he awakens with any suspicions."

Haru bowed his head slightly in gratitude for the information he provided. "Haru, thank you so much. If anything appears, I\'ll notify you right away."

"There\'s no need to be formal, Haru; we\'re still teammates."

Fuji slowly exited the room after spitting these words.

After 7 days, Riku had been in bed for a total of 11 days. To begin, a man gradually opened his eyes while feeling the sunlight on his face.

"M-My head..." He felt someone pinching his head, he slowly touched it. Nonetheless, he was blinking his eyes in surprise, wondering where this place was.

"What am I doing...?" He came to a halt as he easily recognized the setting of this place. "I\'m a patient in a hospital...?" He came to a stop once more as he recalled what had happened to him.

The first thing that came to mind was, what was the outcome of the gene mutation? However, no one could answer the question that had pierced his mind.

"Haru, Haru, Haru! Haru!" Despite the fact that he was in pain in his head and had a hazy vision. He still dialed his personal butler\'s number.

A middle-aged man appeared quickly in front of the transparent window, but Haru did not enter the room to reduce the number of casualties that could occur.

"Riku, Master..." Haru appeared relieved after witnessing his master awaken from a coma. "I\'ll be right back, Master Riku; I just called the doctor."

After a few minutes, the doctors and nurses entered the room. At the same time, they were perplexed as to why this man\'s burned wounds had vanished.

"Riku, your vitals are fine now, and you don\'t have an internal hemorrhage or organ failure." After reviewing all of the results, the Doctor stated.

Riku sighed deeply as he looked at Harun and the blond woman next to him. "All right, doctor, can I go home now?"

"Sorry to tell you, but you need to stay here for two more days," the doctor said with a shake of his head.

The nurses and doctor exited the room, and the doctor allowed Haru and Yui to enter.

Bam!

Yui embraced him right away "Riku, you\'ve made me nervous! Why did you take so long to get out of bed?" She burst into tears.

Riku raised his brows and eventually hugged her back as Haru made the appropriate gestures. "I\'m sorry, Yui; I had no idea this would happen to me."

They remained in that position for a few minutes until Riku asked Haru. "Did I succeed or fail as a result of mutation?"

Haru didn\'t know how he was going to respond as he had no idea what the outcome would be. "To be honest, master Riku, I had no idea how I was supposed to respond to your question... But we won\'t know the outcome until we return to the Mansion."
