Chapter 438: ck OgreThe spy returned, informing them that their target’s carriage will soon be caught in their web.


    Earl Hordia, Earl Sechnal, and Earl Vautarc were in a Wedgefort Hotel, eagerly awaiting good news to arrive.


    「<em>Kuh</em>, what do you n on doing to me!?」


    Among the criminal ves forced to drink the drug, one man wearing a very cor of a different material whose hands and legs were bound shouted at Forbach.


    Strangely, none of the people who were made to drink the drug resisted, no, there was no ego that could be perceived from their expressions. This had caused the bound man to be extremely uneasy.


    「What, I’m just giving you power. Moreover, that power is different from everyone else’s. Don’t worry, the experiment was a sess.」


    「An experiment, what the hell! Tell me what you did to me!」


    Far from relief, Forbach’s words only increased his anxiety and fear.


    「So, in other words, oi, you bunch, do it.」


    When Forbach said that, the bound criminal ve man was held down b the members of the Moonlight Owl. His hands and feet already tied, but now with these men pinning him down with the weight of their bodies, the man could only barely let out groans.


    As Forbach had said, the experiment was a sess, he was able to make the criminal ve man drink something sessfully. If you could call it that.


    What Forbach made that man drink was the thing that the Light God Faith obtained when they returned from the Demon Continent, a crystal fragment that exuded some sort of a sinister magic power.


    He only had a measly amount, but Forbach experimented with the crystal fragment on a rat.


    What was it? What effect does it have? In a time where he knew nothing about it, he didn’t hesitate to make the rat eat it, as it may be used to create a dangerous drug to produce immortal soldiers.


    And, with that experiment, the gutter rat that ate the crystal fragment transformed into a giant rat monster the size of a calf.


    Because of that, over 20 members of the Moonlight Owl lost their lives, but Forbach could not stopughing.


    If he turned these disposable people into immortal soldiers without egos and made them eat a crystal fragment, which would then transform them into monsters, Forbach was certain that he would be able to defeat that boy this time.


    The rat turned into an uncontroble monster, but this criminal ve was made to wear a special very cor.


    「Now then, it’s time for a feast. Enjoy an exquisite dinner that you can’t find anywhere else.」


    The mouth of the bound criminal ve was forcibly opened, then the crystal fragment containing sinister magic power was shoved inside and he was made to swallow it.


    Forbach ordered his men to step back and they observed the man who ate the fragment.


    There was no reaction that could be seen from the man’s body for a while, but just when they thought they heard a cricking sound, the man screamed as his body swelled.


    Perhaps because the criminal ve was once an adventurer, his body was splendid, but that bodyー his bones, muscles, skinー made eerie noises and grew.


    <em>Pachin</em>! The metal cuffs on his hands and legs popped off, the clothes he was wearing ripped, then a ck sinewy skin began to cover the ck, steel-like muscles from the bottom.


    <strong></strong>


    <strong>『GUOOOOーー！！』</strong>


    When the changes in his body subsided and he stood up, the tattered pants barely hung onto him.


    「……an o-ogre.」


    「…… a ck ogre.」


    As his subordinates were dumbfounded and muttering, Forbach gave instructions to the man who changed into an ogre.


    「Stay there obediently!」


    <strong>『Gurururu……』</strong>


    The ogre obediently followed the order.


    Forbach checked around the ogre in satisfaction.


    「It’s over 3 meters tall, huh? Two horns…… it’s slightly different from monster ogres. Oi! Bring it some food!」


    At Forbach’s instructions, the subordinates brought in monsters hunted around the surroundings to it one after the other.


    「It’s your food. Eat as much as you want.」


    The ck ogre ate one monster after the other at Forbach’s instructions. It didn’t eat just the meat, it crunched on bone and even magic stones……


    「Oi, bring me the weapon you prepared for this guy.」


    「「Yes!」」


    As he looked at what was clearly not an ordinary ogre, but a turned ck Ogreー an umon monsterー, he could envision the scene of it killing the human youngster who made them feel bitter and was approaching very soon.
