side story: experimental splicing

in a cave near the ruins of the goblin empire was a laboratory filled with the screams of the weak but that didn't bother goblin scientists

"Dr Gorp we have a new prisoner for you" said the guard captain who would rather not be I this room

"good most of the others are dead or useless so tell me about this new prisoner"

"well it is a female human that has not reached her time for rebirth" that seemed to make the doctor overly happy a he started to cackle

"yes finally we can start my main experiment please can you bring her here on my table"

the guard captain left the room to go grab the prisoner from her cell the was a average human girl in looks as she had brown curly hair and green eyes

"get ready prisoner as this might be your last day as a part of the enlightened species and have fun with the most wicked person to even goblin standards" they walked into the room as the doctor was readying some machinery

"this must be my new little test subject it seems like you're pretty fragile but we can change that" the girl was slowly strapped onto the table but she didn't fight back as she seemed to scared at the machines to do anything

"if my notes are correct then the first DNA injection will be a forest Axolotl as their natural healing abilities will keep you alive for the more unique and unstable DNA injections"

the doctor moved to a table covered in bottles with different essences of monsters he grabbed a pinkish green bottle and attached it to the machinery

then started to adjust the machine to point the needle at the girls heart pierced the top of her heart

the girl felt like her body was on fire as a wave of pain swapped through her body but then her body actually started to melt

her body melting to the table her hair just became a brown patch on her head on her neck was six gill like flaps grew from nothing

her eyes bulged out of her face and her fingers melted together make four long skinny fingers

her leg seemed to shrink making it impossible for her to walk on them and from her back came a wide sideways tail that was used for swimming appeared

"hahahahaha my hypothesis was right to add the monster DNA we need people that haven't awakened their class"

"as it seems to lock one's race the instant you have a class as race has a changing factor to your class"

"now then what shall we add next well if you are to be the super soldier for the empire we need you to be almost unstoppable"

"so let's add a obsidian demon and a stone drake as they have great defense in magic and non magic" he add two bottles this time one being a deep crimson and the other being a brown silver

just like last time the needle piercing the top of her heart but the pain was move then doubled and instead of one wave of pain there was two

then the changes started all over her back was spikes of obsidian that seemed to absorb any mana that touched it

her long arms swelled up and rocks started to form on her hands making her four long fingers rocky claws

and on her head two different sets of horns grew one was like the obsidian spikes on her back more the doubled the size and seemed to point back more

and the other large goat like horns that point in a similar direction as the obsidian horns

"it seems that your legs are to weak for your body so let's change that" the doctor walked back to his desk and brought back four bottles this time

"we have four different specimens that can increase leg strength those being alpha rabbitkin, lightning bullfrog, minotaur, and death knight"

"the last aren't actually good at jumping but I wanted to see what happens if a undead was added to the mix"

all four bottles were put in place as the machine injection all of the monster essences into her body

the pain was unbearable as her body started to spasm and she even started barfing onto the ground

it was bad enough for the doctor to injection a sleeping agent so she doesn't kill herself

as she slept her body changed even more making her unrecognizable from her old self

her once small legs have now double in size as they were massive both in length and width

as the three monster essences worked together to make overwhelmingly powerful legs end with wide hooves for feat

from her back fur was now growing to become a large wet carpet that covered most of her body and even almost hiding the obsidian spikes

her normal ears were replaced with long rabbit ears that hide behind her horns

even her eyes were changed again as one eye had more the one iris having a iris for each monster essences that was in her they seemed to fight for control over that eye

"well it seems like your body can't take anymore monster essences but that is fine as you have became the perfect solution to the empires problems"

"guards can you take this subject to her cell please and captain do you know when the prisoners day of rebirth happens"

"yes sir it i just before the winter sir"

"that is good when it is the day before her rebirth please send her to my lab please"

"yes sir"
