Chapitre 141: Ants
As she stared at the man who was currently tied to the table in front of her, a faint smile appeared on Beatrice's face, causing her to quickly approach him and made a small cut into his flesh.
Of course, before she did that, Beatrice had made sure that the man could not wake up, and could not disturb her work.
"This should be enough," mumbled Beatrice as she stared at the man with an extremely curious look on her face.
Even though what she was doing was rather useless, Beatrice did not care about that, as her curiosity required her to do it.
A moment later, Beatrice placed her scalpel onto a nearby table and took her gloves off her hands.
Without waiting even a moment, Beatrice placed one of her hands off the wound of the man, and her other hand over his forehead.
A small silence then ensued as Beatrice began pouring her mana into the man.
Of course, this silence was broken only a few moments later.
Unlike before, when Beatrice had tried her best to have her mana not completely morph the man she was experimenting on, right now, Beatrice did the opposite, and actively used her mana to do so.
As one might expect, this quickly caused uncontrollable mutations to appear all around the body of the man, as his body turned completely black in only a moment.
After, fleshy mutations quickly began growing around the body of the man, making Beatrice have to slightly retract her two hands, but even so, Beatrice did not stop her actions.
Suddenly, though, the 'eyes' of this 'human' suddenly opened for a moment, before rolling to the back of his head.
"It looks like I was too careless with its soul," mumbled Beatrice as she noticed the fact that the body of this beast was still alive, whilst its soul had been accidentally destroyed by Beatrice trying to influence it using her mana.
A moment later, after Beatrice waved her hand, the body of this thing then died as well, completely destroying anything that had remained of it.
...
"Trying to change the soul using Dark Mana is harder than I expected," mumbled Beatrice as she stared at the corpse in front of her.
After her first, Beatrice had then conducted two more cruel experiments, but just like the first one, all of them ended the same way, as the moment Beatrice tried to influence their souls using her mana, they quickly spiraled out of control and died.
"I guess it's to be expected, It would be quite weird if changing the soul was so easy," mumbled Beatrice as two hundred earth ants quickly picked up the corpse and took it away.
At this very moment, though, Beatrice suddenly frowned, as a slightly confused expression appeared on her face.
"Did something happen?" mumbled Beatrice with a confused look on her face as she looked around her.
Just now, Beatrice had felt as though something around her hand changed, but after looking around herself, Beatrice did not manage to detect anything different.
At the same time, Beatrice did not think that there would be many people who could sneak into her teacher's home without being detected, and if someone like that did come in here, they would have no reason to hide from Beatrice, as she would be completely powerless in front of them.
As such, Beatrice turned her attention onto herself and tried sensing if anything had changed inside herself.
But after a few minutes of looking, Beatrice did not seem to find anything weird, and could only shake her head and ignore that feeling.
A moment later, Beatrice turned her attention back onto her experiment.
...
As she stared at the extremely huge blob of flesh, which was slowly but surely trying to escape the room, a faint frown appeared on her face.
Even though this blob of flesh was extremely large, Beatrice could see that it was extremely powerless and could barely move, at the same time, its skin was much more fragile than that of a normal human, causing her to shake her head.
By now, Beatrice's curiosity towards this domain had been exhausted, causing her to suddenly snap her fingers.
Only around thirty seconds after Beatrice had snapped her fingers, a small earth ant suddenly appeared around the corner.
This was the oldest of the group of five earth ants that Beatrice had transformed after Canty, the one who had been in a human body for around 2.5 minutes.
The moment the ant saw the blob of flesh, her eyes suddenly lit up, causing her to turn towards Beatrice.
'Mistress, do we have to dispose of this thing?' asked the ant with an extremely excited tone in her voice.
"Yes, that would be quite good," mumbled Beatrice as she let out a slight chuckle at the excitement of the ant, causing the latter to quickly run back to the colony.
Only around 2 minutes after the ant had gone away, it had then returned, but this time, it was no longer alone.
Rather, the smart ant was being followed by numerous ants.
The moment the ants approached the immobile blob of flesh, they quickly got to work, and began ripping apart it's flesh with frightening efficiency.
In only around five minutes, the over 3-meter tall, and 5 meter wide and long blob of flesh was completely gone.
Of course, the ants that came here did not devour it alone, rather, under Beatrice's inquisitive eyes, one by one, they carried pieces of its flesh off back to their colony.
...
As he walked through the halls of the Magic Council, the Prophet couldn't help but look out towards the starry sky through a window.
The moment the Prophet gazed at the dazzling stars, he had finally decided on what to do.
"Let me be the sacrifice for the safety of the Mage World," mumbled the Prophet as he clenched his fist.
A moment later, the Prophet began walking to a certain location in the Magic Council.
