Chapter 126: Zehar
[Day 50]
I checked on Yggdrasil and Qliphoth early in the morning. I assume they don't need anything to grow, such as water or fertilizer since they've been growing slowly… very very slowly.
There was only a white twig poking out of Yggdrasil so I once again, had to wait another day to see if I could get my limbs back.
The training for the Water corps was proceeding smoothly. Though it was very slow, there was progress within the corps. I also got various reports from Yin who was obedient as always, and Ava, who is much more obedient. Whenever I called for her, she wasn't shaking in fear but there was still some tenseness in her muscles.
[Day 51]
Today I tried on the dress that Aimi finished making quite a while back. It was entirely black with white stars on it, representing the beautiful night sky. It was extremely soft and went all the way to my ankles.
This wasn't something for fighting in, but more for presentation. I asked my wives how I looked and Homura started to blush, Kumo gave me a thumbs up, and Aika… she started drooling all over the floor.
"I was thinking of getting you a necklace, is it possible to borrow Ava for a day?" Aika asks, wiping away her drool.
"Sure,"
I connect to her collar and find out where she was. I then used [Grand Mind Magic] and ordered her to come to my castle which she immediately complied with. Only a few minutes passed and she came flying into the room, literally… and kneeling in front of me.
"Good job coming here quickly… Aika here wants your jewelry skills so I hope you lend them to her," I say.
It sounded like a request but Ava already knew that it was an order.
"As you wish," Ava responds, following Aika out of the changing room.
"Guess I'm gonna continue training them… so boring," I complain but somehow drag myself to the venom jar.
Once again, my entire schedule today was training the recruits. Some even started to acquire [Water Control] which will come in handy later. This water corps was made on a whim just in case there is something water-related in the future… but I don't even know if there are oceans or lakes on this plane.
"Better to be safe than sorry," I mutter while throwing one of the recruits right back into the water-filled jar.
[Day 52]
I didn't want to train the recruits today since I was fed up with how boring it was. I asked my wives if there was anything I could help them with, which they replied with,
"No,"
"I'm good,"
But Kumo had something I could help her with. She had found a talented individual that specializes in poison. She explained his back story and how he ended up gaining poison-related skills.
"Holy shit," I accidentally muttered out loud, once Kumo finished explaining his past.
His tragic past wasn't even due to my kingdom's security. After enforcing and spreading the new laws, the crime rate and bandit hideouts had decreased to less than 10% of their original number.
His tragic past was due to his fucked up parents. Apparently, they gave birth to him only to test various poisons, from various monsters. His parents taught him that this was his reason for living and he had to continue living for this reason.
Since he eventually gained [Poison Resistance] and even gained [Poison Immunity]. His parents obtained various fake results that they thought were real. They didn't even consider their child having immunity or resistance to the various poisons they made him ingest and breathe in.
The results that they tried to sell were concoctions of various poisons and herbs mixed, creating an extremely dangerous poison. This was only possible by a new job that has sprouted in my kingdom, the alchemist.
Their main skill is [Assimilation]. Just like myself, they can fuse multiple or many things, creating something even stronger. The thing about them being able to fuse skills probably hasn't been discovered or the alchemists are keeping it a secret.
I don't mind what they do with it, but if they start using it for dangerous and negative things within my kingdom, just like this boy's parents… I'll kill them all.
"How do you know all this information?" I asked Kumo who was sitting on the bed next to me.
"Well… me and Homura accidentally found him in the act of killing his parents.
My only guess is that he was able to grow smarter and then he found out about the truth of why he is being used as a test subject. In the beginning, he'll deny it but it will then grow into paranoia, leading to him killing his parents… not like I cared what happened to those shit heads.
I just saved his mom from dying and then tortured her out of the public eye. The boy didn't mind as I tortured his mother in front of him, his eyes were almost as cold as yours when you get serious," Kumo explains.
"Do you know where he is?"
"Yeah, he's currently staying in one of the guest rooms in this castle," Kumo says, gesturing for me to follow her.
…
"He's in here," Kumo says, opening the wooden door in front of us.
Sitting on the stone floor, was a late teenaged fire harpy boy. About 5'10 in height, extremely pale skin, extremely frail body, wavy dark purple hair, dark purple feathers, and dark purple eyes, but… his eyes were dead… completely dead. I didn't even know if he would be of use to me since he looked to have completely given up on life… or just died right here on my floor.
His dark purple features are probably a side effect of ingesting so much poison.
Guess I'll start with this…
"Do you want a second chance at life?" I ask the boy in front of me.
He didn't respond.
"Can you leave us alone for a second," I told Kumo, to which she quickly complied.
As Kumo closed the door behind her, I got off my wolf and sat next to him.

"Do you like power?"
This time the boy gave a response which was just a slight nod.
"Do you want to grow more powerful and trample over anybody who opposes you?"
The nod he gave this time had more emphasis in it.
"If you work under me, I'll let you go crazy. Want to destroy a kingdom… go ahead. But that means you have to become my servant. I won't do anything weird to you like your parents, you can sleep in a warm bed, have fresh hot meals, and train with whoever you like… you just have to become my servant,"
The boy turned his head towards me with cold eyes. He wasn't looking down on me but they looked like he wanted to kill somebody… which suits him much better than his previous, dead eyes.
[Would you like to make [Bran] your servant?]
Yes…
…
The boy looks up, probably seeing the servant offer in front of him. This might've been the first time he's seen such a phenomenon but instinctively, he opened his mouth.
"Yes," he mutters.
[Congratulations! [Bran] is now your servant]
[Would you like to name him?]
"Do you want a new name?"
"Yes… I hate my name. Please change my name," the boy says coldly.
Yes…
[Please say your new servant's name]
I smiled sadistically as I gave him his new name. It was something that almost came instinctively to me… It matched his skills and personality. It also meant poison…
"Zehar,"
[Servant Bran is now Servant Zehar]
"Thank you, master. I hope you keep your end of the deal," Zehar says, standing up but falling back to the ground due to his frail body.
"Heh, already talking back to your master? Well, whatever… I would've cared if you were my pet, but since you're my servant, I'll be more lenient. Let's also get some food in your system," I say, helping Zehar up.

I can't wait to witness some results… wait, this skill could potentially bring back my limbs without even needing Ichimei.
