The Greatest Sinner

Chapter 299 - Humanity Can Be Strong



This time Giel was again on the human side, but his appearance had changed markedly. He was a little taller, more muscular, but not large. His muscles looked harmonious and strong. But, most of all, his eyes changed.

Last time there was no fear in them like most other people, but now there was unwavering confidence in his own abilities. After Rave began to use a potion mixture of three types of blood, Giel grew stronger every day. The same was true for the others, Lilia and Rita also became stronger, but Giel was far ahead.

Evan immediately used Mammon's Gaze and looked at Giel's status. Those numbers shocked him, something like that was crazy. Giel was slowly becoming a creature that didn't exist and shouldn't exist.

[Giel Steen

Race: Human(???)

Rank: 1.1]

<His Rank is 1.1... does that mean that his physical strength and reflexes are equal to a mage at the One-Pointed Star stage?!> Exclaimed Evan to himself.

Moreover, Mammon's Gaze was not sure of Giel's race. The strange question marks showed that Giel was no longer quite an ordinary human on a genetic level. Outwardly, however, he had not changed in any way. He hadn't grown extra arms, poisonous fangs, or a third eye. Giel looked like a simple man living in the countryside and plowing the fields.

Rave noticed that Evan's left eye had turned gold and smiled. He didn't know exactly what this spell did. But he assumed that Evan could use this spell to get information about who he was looking at.

"Surprised?" Smiling, Rave asked.

Evan nodded and said, "He's gotten so much stronger. It's something incredible. Do the other test subjects have the same amplification, or is Giel the exception?"

"Other people have gotten stronger too, but not that much. I don't know exactly what the reason is, but I have a theory. Initially, I thought Giel was just lucky to have high compatibility with monster blood. Because when I only fed them monster blood, he had the best results, too."

Evan didn't interrupt Rave and listened intently. The experiment Rave was conducting could help Evan in his own experiment. Evan didn't mind sharing data with Rave from time to time for more progress.

<Every time I come here, I regret more and more that I still haven't started my own experiment. I've had too much to do lately, but it looks like I'll be free soon.>

Evan has only to join the Demonic Tree, and then he could devote all his free time to himself. Destroying light organization camps was interesting, but it caused Evan's progress to slow down a bit.

"But it seems that it wasn't just a matter of good compatibility. After all, I give them a potion of three different kinds of blood. By the theory of probability, someone else should have had more compatibility with your blood than Giel. But, no one has ever been able to surpass it. Of course, you can say that it's just a coincidence that Giel is a good match for the three blood types, but I don't believe in such coincidences.> Rave explained.

He corrected his glasses and continued, "Then I started looking for the reason for this phenomenal progress. Eventually, I concluded that it was all about Giel's desire to become stronger and to be able to decide his own destiny."

"Desire?" Evan asked, puzzled.

"Don't get me wrong. I'm not saying that Giel became so strong just because he wanted to. I believe there are many factors interconnected here. Otherwise, there would be a lot of people in the world strong enough to fight monsters. Because Giel isn't the only one who wants to be strong." Pronounced Rave.

"And what are these factors?" Asked Evan.

"I think it's all about his cells and desire. When he drank the monster's blood, his cells began to change like those of other people. His cells began to look like monster cells. It's because of their unique cells that monsters can have the most unusual and crazy evolutions."

"Do you think his cells are progressing faster than others because he wants them to?" Asked Evan.

"Exactly. It's something like the placebo effect. Because of his great desire to become stronger, his changed cells respond to his call. In this way, he progresses faster than others. I don't think Giel is alone. There are millions and even billions of people living in this world. Among them, you can find people with a desire as strong as Giel's. But, because their cells are incapable of becoming powerful, they remain weak for the rest of their lives."

<Hmm, this is an interesting hypothesis. Moreover, it is most likely correct. Malespera was able to enter Gust even though she was an ordinary human. Maybe humans have a lot of potentials, but they can't unlock it because they don't have some catalyst. Mages, monsters, and beasts have mana and cells, abilities, and spells. Humans have none of these things. But once Giel got the blood of monsters and humans with a special body constitution, his potential began to reveal itself.> Evan thought.

"How strong do you think Giel can get?" Asked Evan.

"Unfortunately, his progress has slowed in recent days. I don't think it's because he's fighting spirit is gone. On the contrary, I see his thirst for strength only getting stronger every day. He trains hard and fights hard. Giel asks me about experiments and even gives me some ideas, but his progress slows rather than accelerates." With dissatisfaction in his voice, Rave said.

"Do you know what the reason is?" Evan asked.

Rave nodded, "Yes, I figured it out quickly. Giel has become incredibly strong by the standards of an ordinary human, and his desire to get stronger is helping him to progress quickly. But despite all that, he is still an ordinary human like the others.. In order for him not to have any limits, he must finally become a creature of the new race."
