Lucas looked away from him and glanced at the dead Alpha, he suddenly thought that it would be better if he had Allison kill him.
Then he would have an Alpha in his pack, it was more advantageous than simply getting an ability.
Feeling the energy he got from the Alpha, he smiled in satisfaction, then he remembered the ability that he got from the Nogitsune.
What would happen if Immortality evolved?
Lucas didn’t dwell much on the choice and directed that energy towards that ability.
There was no extraordinary feeling, just the energy materializing behind him. When he looked back he saw a black tail emerging from his back.
The tail was only visible to him, when he felt the effect of the new tail his eyes sparkled in joy like never before.
If he sacrificed his tail he could connect his immortality with someone else.
This would allow that person to live as long as Lucas, the only thing noteworthy was that once he connected that person to his life, they would die if he died, this only goes one way.
The reason he was even happier than the time he got the ability, was because living forever was cool, but if you could share that long life with someone else that would be the best thing that could happen.
Lucas glanced at the dead Alpha one more time and sincerely thanked him in his mind.
"Are you going to eat that..?" Robert suddenly asked him nervously as he looked at the heart in Lucas’ hand.
All of them saw him saying nothing for a couple of minutes, and just staring at the heart like he was about to take a bite.
"What?" Lucas broke from his train of thought, looked at him then followed the direction he was looking and was stunned.
"No!"
Steven walked closer to him while John was still standing in the back in a daze. Then he glanced at the heart. "Are you sure? Mister Angel Of Death?"
Lucas glanced at him and saw him holding his laughter. "Although I’ve eaten entire bodies, eating a heart like this feels barbaric."
Steven’s laughter got stuck in his throat as he stared in disbelief at him. "You’re joking, right? Right?"
Lucas smiled and just as Steven was about to pat his chest in relief, his next response made his heart jump again. "Of course...not."
Lucas then put the heart gently on the Alpha and walked toward Robert.
Every step he took made Robert’s heart jump in fright, the moment that Lucas reached with his bloody hand towards him he closed his eyes in terror.
"Crack!" One of the chains was broken from the wall, then Lucas grabbed the other one and broke it as well.
Seeing his stunned expression Lucas patted his shoulder. "There’s no need for a thank you."
Robert pointed his finger at the Alpha and stuttered as he spoke. "H-he had the keys."
Both of them looked at each other for a moment then Lucas turned around, not paying attention to him anymore.
He looked at John and waved his hand. "So did you enjoy this trip?"
Breaking away from his daze, John glanced at him hesitantly. "Can you tell me what’s going on now?"
"Steven." Lucas gestured with his eyes towards him as he didn’t want to explain all the supernatural stuff.
Steven grumbled but he eventually went and took John to a corner, and started explaining the supernatural world to him.
Lucas nodded in satisfaction then turned his attention back to the scientist that he needed. "So are you in search of a job?"
"A job?" Robert glanced at him in confusion, then at the dead body. "Wait, were you here for me?"
"Yes."
Hearing this Robert felt happy that he was saved, but worried about what his fate would be. Although Lucas looked harmless, he was clearly a crazy psychopath.
But that’s why it was even harder for him to answer, as he was afraid that if he said no he would join the dead guy.
"If you don’t mind me asking, for what purpose?"
"To do what you do best, of course." Lucas gave him an encouraging smile.
Robert’s expression darkened and he forgot even the fear he had as he glared angrily at him. "I will not experiment on the innocent!"
Lucas was slightly stunned by his outburst, then he scanned his expression with a thoughtful look. The anger was genuine, he could feel the rage, courage, and guilt inside of him.
His face turned serious and he spoke. "We will not experiment on the innocent, this is for the good of mankind."
Robert didn’t buy his grand goal and still stared at him with a stubborn expression, he had heard that phrase more than once.
