Mad surgeon
--
It has been 2 week since i took over this young boy's body. When Ester woke up to see a young human boy looking over her, a giant dragon and a small fairy flying around she broke into panic... After a few minutes of explaining what she had missed she finally calmed down.
Of course she got quite angry at me for killing this young boy and she even stopped talking to me for 2 days but i ended up calming her with well used words saying things like, 'he was a young boy, it's not like he had a family to feed or something, his parent can just make another one...' which infuriated her even more...
I truly can't understand her compassion for those humans that are hunting, killing and enslaving her kind... After all Thorodan and Cellphone didn't seem to have any problems with my actions...Well she eventually calmed down and is now feeling well enough to restart her magic training. Her hairs are now completely white, her skin is now a beautiful shade of purple and her eyes are blood red. They even glow like mine when she manipulate her mana.
Whichever way i look at her i can't help but see a dark elf... When i asked her she claimed not knowing what dark elves were, so i am possibly the one who just created the dark elf species in this world.
All in all it seem my mana made her stronger instead of affecting her negatively. I asked her about her mana affinity to which she answered that she wasn't aware of what it might be. Hearing that Thorodan simply said:
{It's growth...} (Thorodan)
“Pardon me ?” (Michael)
{Her ability is called 'growth'} (Thorodan)
“You mean growing plants and stuff?” (Michael)
{You can do that too i guess...} (Thorodan)
“I'll need to test that out later... By the way you can also feel mana 'prints' ?” (Michael)
{Of course... And throughout the years i have collected quite a bit of knowledge allowing me to identify most of them.} (Thorodan)
“I can feel that is going to be useful later on...” (Michael)
“M..Master.. could you please.. Get a bit further away please...” (Ester) She said while pinching her nose with her fingers.
Sighhhhh*
Yes it's getting a problem... 2 weeks in a hot and humid environment, my new body is now in an advanced stage of decomposition and the smell of my breath and gases continuously leaking from my anus can't even be considered human anymore... I'm basically a walking corpse, a zombie...

My senses are also getting dull, sense of touch, smell, the eyes are slowly turning milky white and it's getting hard to see. The skin is white and blue in some area, my hairs are falling and some weird stinky fluids are leaking from every orifices...
A bit disappointed i reluctantly start leaking my mana out of this body which fall to the ground once i'm totally out. I recreate my mana body, put back on my cloak and gauntlets that were lying on the ground and walk toward the cadaver.
It is unusable now so i grab it, walk a few feet and trow it into the lava. As i watch the rotting corpse slowly sinking and burning i can't help but chuckle as i recall this famous scene from the 'terminator' movie.
I now have a better understanding of what i need to do if i want a body that last longer, i need it to be alive... But if it's still alive that mean that me and it's original owner would always be conflicting with each other making it impossible for me to completely take over...
So the solution came as something obvious to me... I need a 'brain dead' body.... Basically i need to lobotomize the body before taking it over. That way the organs are still functioning but the brain wont get in my way.
That sound very simple in theory but in practice, i have no idea how to execute a lobotomy... I will try different ways until i find which part of the brain need to be 'tempered with'... Ester will probably kick a fuss but i still need to experiment, whether she like it or not... So i turn to Thorodan and ask him.
“Thorodan, i will need a new test subject dear friend.” (Michael)
{Understood.} (Thorodan) He simply answered before leaving the cave.
Surprisingly Ester didn't say anything and simply kept meditating... I assume that she understand it is for me to finally be able to 'feel' again which is somewhat important for anyone to avoid going insane. And in my last life i was a goddamn priest... So it as basically been YEARS/DECADES since the last time i fucked anyone... (Nhaaa ya bunch of pervs! She's just 10 years old dammit !)
Well i say she's 10 years old but Ester now look around 15years old... My mana transfusions seem to have given her a growth burst interestingly enough... She's now got tiny titties and her thigh are slowly taking a more feminine shape.

An hour later Thorodan came back with a rough looking man looking to be in his thirties. He was screaming and panicking so i quickly knocked him unconscious. I then drilled in his skull with a mana thread having a drill bit at his tip then with minuscule mana thread started 'Experimenting' with his brain.
As i started cutting at his frontal lobe the man suddenly started convulsing then abruptly stopped breathing.. He was dead... This test was a failure... I suddenly regretted never having been a brain surgeon in a past life, or maybe i had but God didn't give me back those memories?...
Cracking this mystery will mean many, many more experiments... I then trow this new failed experiment in the burning lava. I turn toward Thorodan once again and ask him:
“I may need a lot more of those... How many human can you bring simultaneously ?” (Michael)
{If i use mana manipulation i can bring, maybe around 50 of them?!...} (Thorodan)
“Woaa that would be too much to handle simultaneously... Can you go back and bring 5 this time ?” (Michael)
{Hrrrmff Sure...} (Thorodan)
This time again i looked in Ester's direction and could clearly see her twitch at the mention of bringing them 5 at a time. She seemed to resist the urge to interject with all her might faking to still be meditating.
'Well i guess this is still within her boundary of what 'necessary sacrifices' can acceptably be...' (Michael)
{Dring! Dring!} (Cellphone)
{What is it ?} (Michael)
{A small human army seem to be preparing a raid on an elven village far on the other side of the continent.} (Cellphone)
{Again..? Those fucking assholes... Tell your fairy friends to warn them that they need to quickly move from there. Don't forget to tell them this warning is coming from me, the arch-devil Michael.} (Michael)
'This should give them a boost of faith in my favor... Guhuhuhuhu*' (Michael)
{I'm on it boss !!! hihihi} (Cellphone)
A bit later Thorodan arrive with 5 new test subjects for me to play with. Four rugged looking men and one hill looking woman. Well her being sick won't interfere with what i am experimenting on so i don't mind. I then decided to start with her.
Knocking the 4 men unconscious i then turn my attention toward the women who could barely stand up and was crying her eyes out. As i was about to knock her unconscious too she then blurted out:
“You must be the one who took my son Leo !!! Where is he !? What have you done to him!! cough* cough* cough* I am sick and have 2 young daughters, my son is the only one who can keep us alive sob* sob* sob* cough* cough*” (Sick mother)
My body then went stiff, i could sense an frigid atmosphere and daggers piercing me from behind. I won't lie, i, the great arch-devil Michael was terrified of looking behind me at this instant. I slowly turned my head around and met Ester's gaze...
HIIIIIiiiiiiiii.... She's PISSED ! If a look could kill i would have been obliterated immediately... Before she start yelling i tell her via telepathy:
{OKOK SORRY!!!! I'll fix this alright ???????} (Michael)
To that she squinted her eyes in a way that meant 'I'm waiting to see how...'.
“Apologies miss, your son will come back to you very soon. But for now i need you to keep quiet, i will have my dragon get you back home.” (Michael)
I took my bag of gold which i had no use for and handed it to her. She looked at it's content then started crying and thanking me which gave me goosebumps for some reasons.
“Thorodan! Can you bring the miss back to her home please?” (Michael)
He simply nodded with an annoyed look in his eyes. I turned around to look at Ester who gave me a big smile of approbation. I then started patting her head.
This may become problematic later, if the word of me killing many innocent human get out it may come back later to bite me in the ass making it difficult to be worshipped as a good God... It's always smarter not to leave any evidences behind... I then spoke telepathically to Thorodan and said:
{Bring her back to her village, then burn and kill everything. Don't leave any evidence of what happened these last few weeks. I want this village to simply disappear of the map.} (Michael)
Thorodan then gave a hearty dragon laugh not saying anything and simply left to execute the order. Now... I still have 4 test subjects so all is not lost. Time for more research.

What do you get when you mix a trader woman, a cursed werewolf, a dangerous forest, and a sadistic warlord? Nothing good.On her way home from a summer of trading, Olivia didn't want to hire a cursed werewolf as an escort, but he was the only one willing to guide her over the treacherous Navier mountains. Not only do they have to contend with bandits and dangerous animals lurking among the trees, but they also have to dodge unscrupulous war parties who are determined to track them down.They forgot one thing though - curses don't play by the rules.----------------Please note that this is NOT a love-at-first-sight or matebond werewolf style of book, nor does it have werewolf ranks like Alphas, Betas, or Omegas. This book isn't a horror story. It's more of a fantasy-adventure theme.This book has nothing in common with my other werewolf stories.New chapter will be posted every Tuesday at 8AM MST!
