"I don't know…" He finally responded to Elane once he came out of his thoughts.
"Well, why don't you give it a try? We have all these extra Origin Crystals, so why not?"
Her excitement wouldn't let up — the idea of having just as strong of a defence as Rohan, as well as the added bonus of the strength boost it'd give her, made Elane ecstatic.
Rohan looked down at the small red orb resting in his palm.
Even with the low light inside the tunnel, it was easy to tell the thing was a gene.
Elane's encouraging words continued to ring in his ears.
'Can't you evolve this into another Firestone Skin gene?'
Honestly, it was an exciting thought.
And precisely because of that, Rohan didn't want to jump at it too quickly.
He'd learned enough during his time as an Awakened to know not to jump the gun on things like this and celebrate before the race even started.
Just because they wanted this Worker Ant gene to turn into a second Firestone Skin Gene didn't mean it would.
Still…
