My Werewolf System

Chapter 437 Secret Meal (Part 2)

The NIRV employees looked to be having a field day with the crystal they had extracted from the beast. First, everything was handled carefully and delicately as large metal prongs were used to hold the crystal, and then it was gently placed into a container as if it was an explosive that could go off at any second.

Everything was a slow and steady process, and James was occupied overseeing the crystal restoration and would be busy for a little while longer. This gave enough time for the students to think about the rewards they wanted, and eventually, it was Wu who was the first to make a request.

"I would like to request a new type of Altered DNA. One that has yet to be used on others, and at the same time, for that Altered DNA not to be made again, I and my cooperation should gain exclusivity over the Altered DNA." Wu slowly put forward his request. He carefully worded his sentence to avoid sounding like he was asking for too much, although it was hard to tell if he succeeded.

Hearing what Wu had asked for piqued Gary's interest. It sounded like a big request. Although they likely would give Wu a special type of Altered DNA, the request to make it exclusively for him was not quite easy. In the end, it all depended on how valuable they saw these Retrievers as, and it was also a chance for Gary to observe this fact.

As for the reward itself, it could be sold or passed onto someone who was in Wu's group, increasing their power and status in the outside world. It made Gary wonder if he should change the request he had in his mind. If he got his hands on some Altered DNA, then he could use it to change one of the Howler's lives, maybe get it for his sister so she would be safer and will have the ability to protect herself.

However, in the end, Gary felt like getting the beast's body was a better reward. Being an Altered had its own risks, such as the Altered Hunters. He just wanted Amy to live a safe and sound life which she already had at the moment, and Gary would deal with whosoever attempts to harm her.

While Gary was musing in his thoughts, Snow put forward the subsequent request.

"I didn't get my Altered DNA from NIRV, but if possible, I would like them to make a replica or get hold of the same type of Altered DNA I have and pass on that information to my group. Also, a year-long supply of carrots for me if you can add that as a complimentary reward."

With the information from the Altered DNA, Gary could somewhat guess what Snow wanted to do. He wanted more Altereds like himself in his group. If his group did receive the information he had requested for, maybe it could really come true, and they might succeed in creating more versions of the Altered DNA.

"The year-long supply of carrots can be done." Humphrey smiled. "Even though you made two requests, I will give you that. As for the requests regarding Altered DNA, I will have to pass them on to James and see what he can do."

Then glancing at the young man standing at the left end, he asked, "What about you, Gary? What would you like?"

Gary had some time to think about how to phrase his request, and in the end, he couldn't really think of a way to not make it sound weird, but he just had to go for it since this was a great opportunity.

"My request…is the body of the beasts we kill in these special lessons," Gary asked. "I can see that NIRV cares a lot about the crystal. I don't need that, but just the body and a private place for me to do research."

Gary could see the eyes of the others looking at him, and he decided he needed to explain himself.

"If I can investigate the beast's body, then maybe I can figure something out regarding how Altered DNA is created."

Humfrey stared at Gary for a while, observing the latter's body language. Due to his over-explanation and the slight nervousness in the tone, it was clear the student was lying. Which made Humfrey think, why did Gary want the corpse?

Another thing was that he hadn't asked for the corpses to be sent to his group. Instead, he had asked for them for his personal use.

'Does this have something to do with before?' Humfrey wondered as he recalled the image of a bloody Gary in his head. 'It never made sense why he ate his teachers, but what I saw on camera and now this, it's most likely that Gary wishes to eat these beasts as well, but why?

'Has he figured out a special trait of his Altered? A way to get stronger based on what he eats. If that is the case, then that is incredibly rare, and it makes me wonder what his limit is. Either way, seeing this student grow is making the bones in my body shake again.'

By now, James and the other staff had safely extracted and stored away the crystal, and he had joined Humfrey's side once again.

"One of our students had a particular request," Humphrey asked. "Since it can be granted right now, I guess I should talk to you here itself. The request is for the beast's dead body. Will it be alright if he takes it with him, including the beasts that die in the future lessons?"

James' separated jaw showed how stunned he was upon hearing the request.

"I mean, it's not really a problem for us, but are you sure that you want that to be your request?" James looked at all the students, not knowing which student he was really speaking to since he wasn't there when they had made the requests.

"You see, the corpses have no use to us, so that's not really a problem, but there is a reason why they have no use to us. Once the crystal is removed from its body, they tend to disintegrate at a fast rate. So in half an hour or so, that will be nothing."

Immediately upon hearing James's words, Gary left to go towards the beast. He went past the other staff and used his strength to lift it up and put it on his shoulder, holding the large thing with two hands.

"That's great, don't worry about that. Just show me to my room where I can have a look at this thing in peace." Gary asked.

Seeing the strange excitement in the boy, James decided to take note of who had asked for their request. It was the first time for them and although they thought the student would get nothing out of it, they never did know.

'Come on, let's eat this meat and gain some stats!' Gary was more interested in what was about to come.
