Annihilation: The Prologue (10)

''Speak''

'Thought'

____________________________________________

I spent around five years here at the castle with Bram, still researching and finding out about the spellbook while combining theory testing with science. The result had been wary, but it's mostly positive.

There is also something I noticed, my appearance, and it seems that since I transplanted Bram eyes to my, it seems that my body had stop ageing, or maybe I am ageing much more slowly, but it seems that due to me having part of Bram cells in me, it causes me age much slower.

A good thing, if I must say for myself.

But rather than that, I spend most of my time looking after Bram, learning more about the spell inside the book while also trying to combine those two things.

It was quite a mundane experience, but after five years of this, I could crack the formula and finally have a way to create life properly.

According to the magic book, two main things make humans, the soul and the body. It is said that when God created Adam and Eve, the first thing he did is made their souls, then he moulded their bodies from clay before putting those two souls inside the clays and using his power to create a proper appearance.

That is how humanity, or so that what the book said.

For me, that just raised more questions, Is what the book said is true? If it is then, how did Dracula come upon this information?

There is also the fact that God created humans; if that is true, then it proves that Darwin's theory about evolution is technically wrong for humans.

But that would bring me to a bigger question, why did God create humans? Why did he do it? What is his purpose in doing so? And then, what is the goal of the human race? If humans have a sense, then why did God abandon us?

Why? Why? Why?

There are so many questions that I wanted answers for, but I know I could never get one, the only way I can get a solution is to ask God himself, which would be utterly impossible, and I know it.

But right now, for me, that doesn't matter, I only have one current goal in mind, and I'm going to achieve it.

It was not easy to create a humanoid body by using various animal parts and some fresh human features from the already dead ones, but in the end, I was able to do it, which only made me need one component left.

A soul.

It's not that hard, considering I learn which part of the human body contains the soul or some part of it, meaning that I only need to find the right amount of blood before creating a life. With that plan out, I store the body down in the basement, readying to be used anytime I want.

But before I could continue with my plan, something unexpected happened, a kid came broke through the castle door while I was writing about some note down. When I arrive to meet the kid, the first thing that I do is, of course, to shoot electricity at him.

You can't judge me when some random brat decides to break through your door without saying anything; of course, I would have the right to defend myself.

But after the brat said that he needed some help, I took notice of his appearance, a brat that seemed to be no older than fifteen years old, and he lacked a lot of muscle to the point where I can quickly call him skinny, he wears what seems to be a dirty cloth that appears to be worn for a very long time.

A face that seem to make him look like he is constantly glaring at me, while his cold steel eyes seem to lack any information.

But what stands out to me the most is his injuries and power.

His injuries, from what I can visibly see, make it very obvious that he was in a fight before escaping here somehow, there is some blood coming from the inside from his cloth meaning there are some injuries there, which mean there is also the chance of him have internal injuries or bleeding.

But considering the brat still alive, it might not be that bad, but his arms thought, that is another story.

A broken arms that seem to be broken by external forces, there is also the fact that there are some holes on his arm that seem like he was stabbed by something from the inside, which is very bad because that means the thing that stabs him from the inside was his bone, that he somehow force it back in.

Not to mention those black spikes that seem to act like nails, holding his arms together, the fact that he still can lift his arms and move them, is nothing short but a miracle.

To put it simply, his arms are fucked beyond belief, and there is no way of healing them.

But then the brat asks me whether I can heal him or not, which of course, I can't heal it, but I can fix it, which is technically the same thing for me.

Now you might ask why would I help him, well that come to the second reason, his power.

A power that seems to manifest some energy or being that seem to come out from his cloth; what makes it interesting is the fact that when it appears, the air around seems to get blurry like it was disappearing into something, not to mention that red aura, it seems too supernatural to me.

There is something much more going on with his power, which means there is no way I'm letting him go; this brat would surely help me in the future.

Fixing him up was a quick process; replacing his arm was annoying but not something too much for me, so with it, I let the brat rest because he needed it, but while he was doing so, I checked on his body. At the same time, he was asleep, but before I could do it, his power somehow activated and fenced me away from touching him.

It shows that power has an intellect of its own, making it even more enjoyable.

Now with those two arms of the brat, I look at it and see that the black spikes from his power are still there somehow, which give me an exciting idea.

What If I put some of those black spikes inside my monster? What would happen to it?

I don't really like random variables, but this is an opportunity too hard to come by, so I decided to put some part of it inside my monster.

After all, what could go wrong?
