Chapter 281: Midnight Crystal (Part 6)

Katrin let out a heavy sigh before continuing.

"Adam, you like all Phantoms know the basic rules of absorbing monster genes through Revolve. To do so, you need to participate in killing the monster. This is necessary for your genes to find contact with the monster's genes and be able to consume them." 

Adam nodded quietly. Even the Phantoms who had not yet become a Phantom knew about what Katrin was talking about. It was something they learned on the first day at the preparatory academy, it was common knowledge.

"Roughly the same rules work for getting your first Initial Gene, you know about it well. We were helped to kill the first monster by the other Phantoms, seriously weakening it and thus it wasn't a problem for us. It allowed our dormant Spark to wake up and create an Evolution Tree with Initial Gene at its core." Katrin waved a hand.
