Mutation

The voices came to an abrupt stop. They remained silent for a long while, their shock almost palpable. 

They couldn't understand how Ryu's mind worked. It was simply impossible for anyone normal to leap to such a conclusion… 

And even more shocking that it was the correct one. 

"… I see. What a fascinating mutation."

"You see it too?"

"Yes. To think such a trash Bone Structure could have such powerful, synergistic effects."

"It's not just the Bone Structure. This brat is a freak. Anyone else would have died."

"He benefitted from being targeted. Those Martial Gods sure are shameless. Who attacks a child like this? Not just a child, but a baby who hadn't even been born at that."

"You say that like you're some upright white knight. How many Clans and Sects have you wiped out, exactly? How many of those women you killed happened to be pregnant?"

"That's different. They offended me." A snort rang out.
