Chapter 259
◇◆◇ (Gevaudan’s point of view)
I run and run, chasing after Dominic and Yasmin.
In the pathway they ran through, a series of walls appears from the ceiling, blocking my pursuit, but I smashed through them all as I ran after them.
Despite such juvenile obstruction, I still got slowed down, and it was hard to catch up with them. They are surprisingly fast.
After destroying several walls, the deadly chase came to an end.
We entered the underground armory.
It was a large space with a high ceiling. It was empty inside, most of the weapons now gone, and the only few left was undergoing maintenance.
At the sudden appearance of the butcher, the technicians screamed and ran away.
Once the crowd dispersed, I spotted Yasmin in a corner of the armory.
She stopped, turned around, and stared at me reproachfully.
Dominic was standing in front of Yasmin. I had never met that guy before, but he was the one who was trying to get Abigail. He’s Yasmin’s son, right?
“–It’s time, Dominic. Use the ring.”
“Finally.”
Dominic, sounding emotional, held up the ring in his hand.
“–This is the purpose of my existence…….”
“Yes……. now is the time to show mother your full potential–“
Yasmin said, with an eerie smile plastered on her face.
Nodding back at her, Dominic put the ring on.
Immediately, a glowing symbol appeared beneath his feet.
Spreading out slowly, it was a complex pattern, arranged in a circular array. I’ve seen it before. It looked a lot like a magic circle.
–I had a bad feeling about this.
I gestured to Arshella and Tiriel that followed me from behind to stay back.
I feel awful.
It makes me mad. Makes me sick to my stomach.
*Boom*…….! There was a loud sound.
The air shook around the area. In the midst of this sickening sound, a pillar of light rose up from Dominic’s feet and swallowed him.
“Guooohhh!!”
That man’s scream was like a beast’s final cry.
That, too, seemed to disappear in the pillar of light.
『What the heck is going on?』Arshella asked.
『Probably a Translinger. It can artificially create a changeling by combining the souls of the people from Earth and your kind from Miforsis into one body』
『–What? is that a thing!?』
『Are you kidding!? How is that even possible?』
Tiriel exclaimed
『I heard it is possible.』
The fact that even these girls looked shocked suggests that this technology seems to be extremely advanced.

It was huge.
About twice my height, its weight shook the underground armory every time it walked.
–but it’s deformed.
Its body is thin and reminds one of a tall, dead tree.
Then, most noticeably, its entire body is covered with pinkish, rippling, undulating scales.
A closer look at the scales shows it’s not a scale at all, but tongues.
Countless tongues covered its entire body, licking at the air
The twisted limbs with crooked joints. There were too many joints, and one arm was splitting in two in the middle, making it unbalanced. Perhaps because of this, he seemed to be unable to stand on two legs, his upper body wobbling constantly. Many bones protrude from his body everywhere. He has a lot of hair on his back, but the top of his head is bald.
The bald head was lumpy and eyeless. A male genitalia-like thing hung down from where the eyes should have been, while the eyeballs hung down from under the chin like testicles. The eyeballs are moving around, so perhaps they are still functioning.
Whenever it walked, it dragged its tail and made a slurping sound, and upon closer look, it turned out to be its intestines sticking out of its ass. The organs are coming in and out of its butt hole.
Such something I couldn’t quite identify made an agonized moaning sound.
In the back of its open mouth, instead of a smooth texture, it was filled with yellow molar cusps, all the way to the back of his throat.
At first glance, I felt a sense of weakness and pity.
Every living creature has its beauty, it displays many functional aesthetics as proof that it has survived the harsh natural selection process. this monster has none of it. It seemed like mockery to Dominic himself and against every living thing on earth that has been passing its legacy through many life and death. It’s an insult to all of those lives.
“As I thought, you are no good either.”
Yasmin looked up at Dominic’s deformed figure and said in a bored tone.
