The mage with an indifferent face, short in stature, wearing a covered bird's beak mask, a dark gray coat, and large leather boots, wrapped tightly from head to tail, without a trace of skin exposed.

The young dragon confined to the ground was incapable of resisting, and its hind limbs, stripped of its skin and scales, were constantly shrinking from pain, but stretched under the compulsion of the drug.

"It's amazing, the dragon's body, even with such a large dose of muscle relaxants, it still can't make you incapacitated, what is the reason? Maybe check your hormone levels? He muttered to himself, plunging a thick needle into his hind limb and drawing out a tube of blood.

The young dragon's tears of pain flowed, but she didn't dare to make a sound, if it hindered the mage's "research", then, facing only more terrifying things, she even kept licking her tears, because she knew that water was precious and could not be wasted, and she only had the opportunity to eat once every three days.

The true dragon is a very intelligent species, even the young dragon is very intelligent, very intelligent, she knows how to keep herself alive, as far as she can.

But she still didn't survive.

After hundreds of days and nights, Elaine saw her suffer endlessly, and she tried everything she could to live, no matter how humble, but in the end she failed.

She yelled at the last moment, "I'm not a defect...... I'm not! I'm still useful! I'm still useful! ”

However, she was unable to achieve the effect the mage wanted, and the impatient mage eventually terminated the life-support device, by which time, her internal organs had been dug out and hung outside, relying on several pipes to maintain contact with her body.

The body of the young dragon was casually thrown into the pile of rotten flesh of the failed goods, and the soul was extracted and refined into a soul crystal, which was sold by the mage to a ghost woman in the underworld during a transaction.

Pathetic test subject, burdened with the curse given by fate, endured endlessly in pain every day. Fear of death, no friends, no light, no future.

Despair and pain, madness and hatred, unbelievable negativity condensed in that small body.

And...... Not only her, but there was an endless amount of negativity in the deep well where the waste was disposed of, and it was not only the young black dragon who was treated like this, where mountains of carrion moaned silently, even though it was useless, and no one cared about their suffering.

Despair, more and more, darkness, thicker and thicker, rotten juice flowing everywhere, the depths of the deep well covered with scars, here, just by staying there you can experience what is called the ultimate twist.

Elaine, however, felt like she was experiencing the situation in the first person, and for an unknown amount of time.

She was covered in cold sweat, dragon scales kept appearing and disappearing, and she was baptized by negative emotions, and it was not easy to stabilize her mood and continue to experience such memories.

In such an environment, time seems to become meaningless, and every second passes longer than a year, so oppressive that Elaine can't breathe.

But all of a sudden, something changed here.

The rotten flesh and bones moved, and the negative emotions that were so thick began to shrink that they were extremely strong.

The guttless young dragon was dead, and even her eyes had melted from the decay, but her body twitched.

The dead body was re-established.

The chest was cut open, and the inside was hollow, so ...... The corpse felt empty.

She rummaged through piles of carrion, regardless of the species, just looking for usable organs that hadn't rotted yet.

Similar to the lungs of dogs, it seems to be the heart of a fish, the stomach of a squid, the kidney of a cow, and seven or eight intestines that do not belong to the same species, some thick and some thin, but she doesn't care, and stuffs these carrion into her stomach.

Miraculously, the intestines joined together, the heart began to beat, the lungs began to breathe, and the kidneys even cooperated with the heart to begin to receive blood and filter the dirty blood.

Then, the eyes that were no longer usable were removed and replaced with another pair of golden eyes, and the shattered bones were removed and replaced with the bones of unknown creatures.

After some substitution, what remained, she turned from the shell of a juvenile black dragon into a mess of rotten meat, but this lump of rotten meat that couldn't even get past the rejection of the opposite sex, and even didn't match the size, actually ...... It's up and running.

The pupils became refreshed, the wounds began to heal, the heart beat more and more vigorously, and in contrast, the negative emotions that had been deposited around him for many years gradually disappeared.

She became a strange being with no soul but consciousness.

"...... corpse? No...... No, the corpse is undead, but the thing is still alive. Elaine guessed, but didn't say it.

The undead are the ones who bind the souls of the dead in a shell powered by negative energy, but now it's the opposite, the weirdly twisted, patchwork of various disordered organs is alive, the body is alive, the heart is still beating, but there is no soul.

A soulless shell should turn into a vegetative person and fall to the ground waiting to die, but ...... This body has consciousness again.

Quirky and unbelievable.

"Huh? It seems like...... Out of sight, a funny little guy appeared. The mage, after dropping the failed test specimen again, noticed the movement below.

Something that looked like a dragon, but also didn't look like a dragon, pounced on the subject's corpse, tore usable organs from it, and loaded it onto itself.

As a result, the little corpse-like creature was captured, and like the previous owner of the body, it was chained through the joints and became a new test subject, codenamed "Kara", an acronym that means "mutant" when fully expanded.

Elaine thought she was going through another inhumane experiment, but her memory came to an abrupt end.

Elaine's voice came from Kara's ear, still so indifferent: "This is where I came from, I'm not a dragon, I'm ...... Monster. ”

"Satisfied with this answer? Because I'm a monster, I can do anything, I don't have any morals, I don't have empathy, I don't even have a soul, what keeps me alive is paranoia, it's distorted thoughts, it's endless hatred, buried in my shell is the resentment of countless test subjects before they die, I'm more evil than anything you know, you don't understand me enough, you see me too kindly, I don't need a reason to kill them. ”

Kara coldly pushed Elaine away and looked at the pale golden dragon: "I have already answered the first question, you can ask the next one." ”
