122 Chapter 122

The water started to bubble at an incredible speed. The effect of the herbs, even the piece of blood fruit, had already been consumed. Ariel thought fast and added other herbs and another piece of the blood fruit. As she didn't know how much it would take, she placed the smaller piece of the blood fruit that was left.

"Ugh!" The more it increased, the more pain Amon felt.

It was very agonizing, making him want to scream and stop meditating, but with his dream of becoming Overlord, he held on.

"Amon, go!" Barbara said with her hands clasped.

Julia and Maisa were very nervous as they looked in Amon's direction. It was noticeable that he was suffering.

Amon opened his eyes and looked at them... After a few seconds he closed his eyes tightly!

Half an hour later...

_ _

<Filled Lightning Gene + 1>

<You have reached level one hundred and nine of the Lightning Gene>

_ _

"..."

As soon as this warning appeared on his retina, Amon realized that the agonizing pain had begun to ease...

Now, all one hundred and nine white genes had been filled with lightning genes. 'I broke the limit and managed to survive...'

In a way, it was unbelievable. Honestly, now that he had it, Amon was filled with anticipation for the genetic factor he would create.

"Amon, how do you feel?" Maisa approached with concern visible all over her face.

Julia and Barbara were a little slower, but soon they got closer.

Barbara asked, "Are you feeling better? By the way, is it over?"

"Yes, thanks for worrying," Amon smiled a little. He added, "There are still rare herbs left and a piece of the blood fruit. You should all enjoy and use it."

"That..." Ariel, who was usually the most uninhibited, showed shame at the thought that she would have to be naked.

Amon was a little tactful and said, "I won't look, don't worry. Now that I've reached my limit, I'm going to go to the end of the cave and create the genetic factor."

Giving the girls no chance to speak, he got out of the water and started to get dressed. Then he went to the back of the cave and sat cross-legged in the lotus position.

There was a little disappointment on the faces of Maisa, Julia, and Barbara...

Ariel laughed a little. "Why do they look so disappointed? Aren't you Amon's girlfriends? When you're alone with him won't it be better?"

The girls understood what she meant and blushed a little.

As where Amon was doing the medicinal bath was too small for the four of them, the girls enlarged the hole and filled it in with more water. As Barbara was the source of fire, she stayed close to the hole where she placed flames to heat the water.

Now, the four girls were naked as they took a medicinal bath. After the water has warmed up. Barbara stopped putting flames in the hole. She wrapped heat around her body, but not too hot. It was just hot enough to bring the water to just the right temperature.

The girls moved away from her a little. After all, they didn't have fire genes. Despite the twins having water genes, they still felt it was very hot to be so close to Barbara.

Meanwhile, Amon was feeling like he was floating out of the galaxy. It was the feeling of not having control of anything, but at the same time, he felt like he could do everything. When this happened, the energy of heaven and earth in the cave increased even more than before when Amon was increasing his genes. The girls who saw this were left with their mouths wide open.

Of course, because of the absurd amount of energy from heaven and earth, the girls benefited while taking their medicinal bath. It hadn't even been over ten minutes, but they'd already upped their genes a couple of times at least.

"Ughhhh!"

Suddenly, Amon let out a groan of pain. Because it was dark at the end of the cave, the girls didn't see very well, but even in the dark, several white glowing sparks were possible to see vaguely.

"That can't be his bones, right?" Julia looked at Maisa, then at Barbara and Ariel.

"I think not?" Barbara was uncertain and very worried.

"Shall we go take a look?" Ariel asked. She had started to get worried too.

The girls got up and didn't even bother to get dressed now.

When they arrived, their eyes watered as they covered their mouths.

"My God...!"

"This is cruel!"

"Ahhh!"

The girls felt sadness and pain for him. From Amon's body, the bones seemed to have broken and been exposed outward. Blood dripped onto the floor to the point of creating a pool of it. Amon was making a very ugly expression as he held back the pain; his eyes were bloodshot.

"How did this happen?" Ariel was stunned. She had never heard of a case of someone who was creating their genetic factor and this had happened. In dozens of books she read at the university, none mentioned anything like this.

"I, I'm fine... Don't worry. My case is a little... Special..." When Amon noticed the girls had come over, he spoke with great difficulty.

The girls just nodded like robots, at which point they didn't even notice they were still naked. Of course, Amon didn't even have time to think about that either. He just concentrated as the pain consumed him. All of his pain from before seemed like child's play compared to now.

"Let's go back to meditating in the medicinal bath and get stronger," Ariel said in a firm tone.

"Yes..." The girls looked at Amon again, then left.

Despite wanting to help, staying there could have gotten in the way instead of helping. The only thing they could do now was wish for the best and be strong. Amon was trying his hardest to get stronger, enduring pain they thought was humanly impossible to bear.

But then Julia said something that at least eased the tension. "Guys, I almost forgot, but even if we die in this place, we're not really going to die!"

"That is true!" Barbara's eyes shone with a different light.

"That's a relief..." It was as if a weight had been lifted from her shoulders as Maisa sighed.

"..." Ariel was silent. Even she had forgotten about that fact.
