A mortal? He vehemently shook his head in denial. No!
Ascendant? No. Why would they bother him? Master Prince Wyatt alone perceived his worth.
Demi-humans? No, they would be more likely to kill him for soup than to toy with him like this.

"Look at me when I am speaking to you, rodent!"
He looked up. And he saw....
"Rewriting the past - altering what was meant to happen and what has occurred. Seizing my inheritance by force... " A reptilian beast, with skin that seemed to be made of white snow, flesh, and scales as hard as ice, emerged from a sudden snowy tornado.
"What is your excuse?" The beast fixed its gaze on him, its jaws agape as it spoke with human speech.
Eyes? Blue and piercing.
Teeth? Razor-sharp.
Claws? Deadly.
Strength? Unfathomable.
Magical beast level? Unmeasurable.
Weakness? Unknown.
He instinctively crawled backwards, making his objections known.
