nBack in the hidden Grand Canyon, in the hovering frozen ground where Desmond's mansion was located. A middle-aged man was ascending the stair with an expression mixed between excitement and worries. His pace was a bit faster than usual while he kept glancing around the mansion.

nWhen he looked at his feet where he stepped on the ice stairs, he could see the lake as the ice stairs were transparent, showing the calm and mysterious water below with a shadow of his on the water reflection.

nNo matter how many times he looked at the mansion, he couldn't help but always feel amazed by how the mansion was built within only using frozen water as the foundation.

nThose frozen pillars that supported as the main support that built the mansion were actually did not look so strong from the look, yet somehow month by months passed not only the frozen pillar did not melt, instead the sensation around this area became colder.

n

"Greeting, young master, I'm here to answer your call.

" The middle-aged man spoke politely as soon he arrived in front of the mansion door, bent his body forward and lowered his head.

nThe middle-aged man was Ken, as soon as Laura called him to meet his young master, joy flashed in his eyes. He rarely interacts with his master in the past few months, only doing errand works such as collecting and killing several beasts to eat and serving the young lady.

nIt was boring and also by doing this, the debt he had to his young master lingered around his mind. Those little works could not be considered as paying the debt causing him to feel unease.

n....

nWhile waiting for his young master's answer, Ken glanced around the mansion where there was an empty courtyard with solidly frozen ice as the ground. Surprisingly although the main foundation and the ground used ice as the material, the mansion was actually built with dark fine wood.

n

"Come in,

" a voice suddenly rang and interrupted his mind, causing him to weaver and then come back to the sense.

nWithout hesitation, Ken opened the door, passed the tranquil and dark hallway and arrived at the second floor. As a swordsman, the sixth sense on his human body has been greatly enhanced, causing one to easily track the voice's source.

nLooking at the mansion situation, Ken felt it was a bit creepy. Even he as the grown man adult couldn't live comfortably in this place.

nWhen he arrived at the experiment door, he suddenly became nervous, thinking back to Felix's incident and many rumors among the subordinates about their master's inhuman experiment.

nHowever, upon remembering how his young master provided him a place to live, fulfilling his final revenge and he even against the kingdom,

"I can't disappoint my master,

" Ken shook his head and then knocked on the door.

"I should be ashamed to be hesitation.

"

n....

n

"Sit there and wait for me,

" On the other hand, after seeing Ken who looked the same as Laura described, Desmond nodded and pointed at the chair near him. His attitude was the same as how he treated Felix when he became a guinea pig.

nDesmond was holding a tube filled with green blood from Husk King on his hand with many cauldrons before him. Only after placing the tube on the racks, he turns around and begins sizing up Ken from top to bottom.

n

"You know the reason why I called you here?

" As he spoke, Desmond then manipulated the natural energy and formed a chair slightly higher than Ken before them. His eyes narrowed at him with a look that could pierce through human emotion.

nOn the other hand, Ken was racked his brain. Obviously, he didn't know the reason, yet it seems his young master wanted to test his intelligence. Upon seeing all of those cauldrons and within blood on it, he was certain, the rumors were true, it looked like his young master really having an inhuman experiment.

nBut, he didn't care.

nHis goal was achieved and his life was dull after losing his family, he had no new goal to set, he lived only to repay his master's gratitude. Even if someday the debt has settled, he would still follow his master if they were still alive.

nWhen he looked back at the memories of how he slaughtered the criminal who killed his family, he laughed inwardly and suddenly could understand how Felix felt.

nAs the answer, Ken raised his head and gazed at his young master while politely replied,

" I don't know, young master, but even if you want me to die, I'm ready.

"

nDesmond was stunned for a moment. Ken's answer was out of his expectations. He squinted his eyes to look at him but found there was no feeling of curiosity or warry on his face, instead his eyes filled with resigned and emotionless.

nA suitable but also the most broken candidate, Desmond thought.

n

"I see, lay down in there, and fold your right sleeve up,

" after confirming Ken's will, Desmond began to prepare the blood and the syringe. He also made the same prison-like Felix.

nAmidst injecting the blood into the syringe barrel, he added a little bit of his own blood to the barrel. By doing this, I'm sure I can regain control of his body if he is suddenly berserk or betrayed. It's not I don't trust you, but one still needs to be warry or they would be stabbed in the back, he thought and then walked to the Ken.

nKen on the other hand calmly gazed at the ceiling while waiting for his master, it seemed he really had given up on this life. Upon seeing the strange object on his master's hand, he just showed a kind smile and took a deep breath,

" Please don't hold back, young master.

"

nDesmond nodded and then began to pierce Ken's skin as the green blood on the syringe barrel was slowly depleted. He glanced at Ken and found him has been closing his eyes showing a slight pain expression.

nAfter the injection was complete, Desmond stepped out from the prison, and sat on the chair waiting for reactions.

nSystem, scan Ken stats, Desmond commanded inwardly.

nScanning the target...

nWell, as expected from Felix's subordinate, Desmond muttered. He also had long noticed the percentage of Ken's race.

nThe transformation was in process and probably would finish in two hours from now, he added yet just as he tried to leave the room, he heard a growl from behind.

n

"Eat*growl* Food*growl*

" a hoarse voice mixed between a rough breath and a person who had full of meats on his mouth trying to speak was sounded from the prison.

n

"It's a bit faster than Felix,

" However, as Desmond spoke his eyebrows furrowed upon noticing the puddle of saliva that kept falling from Ken who was already on the ground, standing like a dog with his hands acted as four feet and had a crazy look on his face.

n

"FOOD! Human! FLESH!

" Felix suddenly jumped forward, pounced on the prison iron bars, repeatedly gnawing at them. However, he failed to break the iron bars as the teeth were kept falling one by one due to the hardness of the iron.

nYet, the crazy look on his eyes seemed to ignore the bleed on his gum with his eyes were fixed on Desmond. He even used his nails to press the iron bars causing his nails to be broken.

n

"Strange, this is too strange,

" Desmond's expression gradually changed into sour. Unlike Felix who had a beast personality after his body transformed into Flying Lizard Beast, in Ken's case the beast seemed still did not realize his body was human.

n

"Is this why Flying Lizard is classified into B rank? Not only because of its power but also intelligence?

" When he thought this likely might be the case, he couldn't help but regret his action.

nIf so then he should wait and use a better beast for him. Nor used other subordinates as the Guinea pig.

n

"System scan,

" Looking at Ken who kept injuring his body, Desmond tried to think positive and did not give up.

nAfter a short interaction with Ken and knowing his background, Desmond felt like it would be a waste if Ken dead. He was a perfect doll *ehm* a perfect subordinate to carry any kind of mission in the future.

nMaybe this happened because he had mixed the syringe with his blood?
