Kai couldn't help but look at the young man curiously.
The child's ability had shocked him… not the fact that he was being sold, but the uniqueness of his gene.
A safeguard against mutation, a way to revert to human form no matter what modifications were forced upon him. It was a rare gift, one that could be exploited endlessly.
He could already imagine several uses for this young man if he were that twisted figure.
Still, seeing the expression of some old men and some middle-aged women around, he couldn't help but feel that he had to try to save this young man at the very least.
'Whatever… I still have a couple of thousand.' Kai muttered to himself as he decided to purchase the man.
Kai had bid fiercely, his hand rising again and again as the numbers climbed.
580 medals had nearly stolen the boy away… It was a bid so high it had to be the pooled resources of a large guild.
They wanted him desperately, whether to save him or to use him, Kai couldn't tell.
