Chapter 32 Ragnar
Thud
The Meatscaper quickly knelt on its left knee and opened its mouth, which was filled with sharp jaws.
Max bit the skin of his finger open and put his hand on top of the Meatscraper's mouth. A drop of blood trickled down, landing on the Meatscraper's mouth.
The moment the blood entered its stomach, its heart gave a loud beat, and then his body started shaking. "ARGHH! ARHKGK!"
The Meatscraper rolled on the ground, clawing its body as if it were filled with millions of itches. Its eyes began to turn white as saliva started dripping out of its mouth.
"Don't Waver!" Max's sudden shout brought it back from its blurry consciousness. "You are going to be a general of this lord. Don't you dare waver."
Max's cold yet sincere voice, which was filled with expectation, made the Meatscraper firm its heart and withstand the pain.
The moment it started to endure the pain, changes started to appear on its body.
The Meatscraper was just three feet tall, but now it has grown to five feet. Meat started to fill its skinny body, and its body started to resemble that of a well seasoned martial artist. It didn't have as much as a demon should have, it only had a pair of short white horns on its head.
Now the horn has grown a little, with blonde hair growing out too, and a tail has also grown out of its back.
Max was dumbfounded by this complete makeover, as he didn't expect the system would do such a thing. 'Your awesome system.'
[ No, host. You are responsible for half of the work. I just extracted blood essence from your body and densely packed it in the form of a single drop. Then I used that to unlock its hidden genes and trace back the little high-ranking bloodline it possessed. ]
Max was surprised to find the process. He had thought the entire credit went to the system, but it looked like he had some stake in it.
The newly changed Meatscraper got up and got on its knees. It looked up, showing its handsome face, totally opposite of what he possessed.
'Did I just create a lady killer?' Joking a little inside his mind, Max asked. "How is it?"
"Ahh….I…am grateful…Lord." The Meatscraper spoke with great difficulty.
Max and Ravenna were surprised to see it speak fluently now. Max glanced down at it and said. "Good, now you will work for this lord, on helping me to expand my power."
"Glory to the Lord." The Meatscraper spoke firmly with its head down.
"Now." Max then squinted his eyes as he knew it was time to name him. After thinking for a bit, he quickly came up with one. "This Lord has decided to give you a name. This will be your identity and your existence from now on; don't ever forget it. You will be called Ragnar."
"Thank you, my Lord." Ragnar said this loudly while trying to hold back his tears.
"It's fine, and you don't have to be very humble in front of me. We will check the place this demon knight stayed." Max turned around to sit down at a place. Before that, he spoke to Ravenna. "Ravenna, go get a set of clothes for me and him."
Ravenna nodded her head and ran toward their base.
Meanwhile, Max went to sit on the dead Swinefiend General. Max said in his mind, resting his butt on its belly. 'Its somewhat soft.'
Then he was about to check on the things he got from the system but got stopped as the Meatscraper flocked under him.
"Arghgh…"
"Agaaa…aggga.."
Max saw them bowing their heads, and from their hopeful yet greedy eyes, he guessed they also wanted to change like Ragnar.
"Ragnar." Max silently called Ragnar, who was a few meters away, clenching his fist and checking his body. Ragnar flinched at hearing Max's soft call and looked in his direction.
Anger filled his eyes upon seeing the Meatscaper annoying Max.
In a matter of seconds, Ragnar arrived beside them and swiped his leg, going for a killing blow.
"Stop." However, Max's warning stopped him again.
The Meatscraper that was the target saw Ragnar's leg stop before his face, and a strong wind blew into its face.
"Don't kill them, they are useful to me. Just teach them things that they shouldn't do." Max calmly said, looking down at the scared Meatscrapers.
Ragnar bowed to Max before straightening his body. "As you wish."
Then he glanced down at the Meatscrapers who knew they had messed up. Ragnar walked away, and the Meatscraper followed behind him obediently.
Max didn't mind as he knew this was a normal demon's behavior. Then he focused on why he was here.

"Interesting…martial demon.." Max rubbed his chin, thinking of what this race was and what that ability was. Fortunately, the system gave a detailed explanation of those in the next second.
