"V-Volunteer?" Edmund stuttered and was confused by Evie's aning.
anwhile, Stuart appeared in front of Edmund and showed a wide grin, causing Edmund to turn pale.
"N-No, rcy please." Edmund pleaded and started banging his head on the ground to show his sincerity.
Although he doesn't know what he was volunteering for, he can tell that it's anything but great based on Stuart's evil grin.
Blood soon started dripping down from his forehead as he banged his head in a kneeling posture. This ti, he had not only overestimated his ability but underestimated the background of Evie.
Stuart stood still for a while before glancing at Evie who nodded her head calmly.
Stuart smiled before grabbing Edmund's clothes, almost to the point of choking him, and teleported away.
"Nooooooooo~" Edmund scread in panic as he tried to extend his hand to reach for sothing to grab onto, only for it to be futile.
That was the last word Evie has ever heard from Edmund again as his life is going to be useful for Evie in her experint.
'Hope you can survive my lovely experint.' Evie smirked inwardly as she dispelled the barrier and glanced at the three won.
"Guess it's ti to et up with that brat now," Evie mumbled softly as she waited for them to wake up while she opened a screen projection to check Zen's progress.
When she saw the number of points he gained in this short ti, Evie smiled and shook her head.
"As expected, this brat and his luck are so overwhelming that I would have suspected him of cheating if I wasn't the person behind this sche." Evie laughed as she pinpointed his location.
Whoosh!
anwhile, back in a creepy and gloomy environnt, Stuart arrives with Edmund who is constantly pleading for rcy.
"No, almighty Stuart, please forgive for not knowing Evie's identity," Edmund begged and cried loudly.
However, Stuart ignored him as he flung him to the side and chains appeared out of nowhere, as it started chaining Edmund. Both his arm and leg were now chained onto a wall as Edmund struggled to break the chain.
"Don't struggle because it's just a waste of energy. Those chains restrict your mana flow, aning you're now akin to a mortal." Stuart chuckled softly and clapped his hand.
The other side of the wall suddenly trembled and started becoming fuzzy as the illusion disappeared and when Edmund saw what was happening inside, he started pissing himself in fear.
Edmund was in full view of the scene occurring and he was in the sa position as them.
Screams of agony echoed in the area and Edmund realized that most of the humans inside were people that attended the auction house.
"N-No, that's Carlos from the Raven family. There's no way he would be here." Edmund mumbled softly as he started going crazy.
That's because Carlos started transforming and half of his body beca similar to a demon and blood continued to spray around him when the demon form tried to extend himself.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" Carlos scread in pain as the transformation was grueso and soon, he lost consciousness, leaving the left half of his side remaining as human while the right half as a demon.
Edmund widened his eyes in fear when he imagined himself to look like Carlos.
anwhile, Stuart smiled wickedly at him and patted his shoulder. "I must praise your courage to volunteer yourself in assisting Miss Evie's experint. For your eagerness in volunteering, I will make sure the servant here will give you the best treatnt ever."
And he continued, "If you manage to survive the torturous thod that you have to go through then you're going to be reborn with a new and powerful body. Hahahaha."
Afterward, Stuart signaled the servant in the side to prepare a place for Edmund's experint and bid him a farewell.
Edmund glanced at Stuart and the place that the servants are bringing him. His body trembled in fear but there was no escape as the servant injected him with so substances.
Edmund fainted shortly after and the servant soon brought out a box, containing a core that has a demonic aura glooming over it.
*********
While Edmund's experint begins, Stuart reappears in front of Evie as he awaits another order from her.
"How's the experint progressing so far?" Evie asked calmly with her eyes focused on the projection screen.
Stuart thought for a while before replying to Evie. "Regarding the experint, we were able to gain so progress as we managed to start assimilating a core into their body and the transformation was half-completed."
"So that is to say there's no improvent at all after our initial success?" Evie turned around and glared at Stuart who hurriedly knelt down and apologized.
"S-Sorry miss, we have tried our best to rge two cores together but there's always a problem in the rging process that obstructed the transformation. We needed a little more ti to figure out the problem and once we solved it, we could have a huge army of humans that has the durability and regenerative ability of a demon while maintaining them as mages."
Stuart said with his body trembling in fear due to the murderous aura in Evie.
Although she still held a calm expression, Stuart was not an idiot to believe she was still happy, especially when he failed to improve the experint.
Evie didn't say anything and snapped her finger slowly.
Instantly, a strong gust of wind impacted Stuart, causing him to vomit blood but Stuart didn't utter any complaint as he continued to stay in his kneeling posture.
"We have managed at least one successful transformation and that was Daemon Kaiso but you decided to send him to Zen and got Daemon Kaiso killed, causing our experint to co to a halt," Evie said and continued.
"If we still had Daemon Kaiso to experint then we would have gained trendous progress but you decided to go after Zen. Who the hell do you think you are to target him?"
Stuart turned pale as he couldn't imagine that he was being punished for targeting Zen and not about failing the experint.
