Abnormal Moon

"No, I mean, when did you get here?"

"Well."

Tiamat tilted her head.

"Mom came back with you."

"We came back together... So you've been following me ever since you were on the other side of the world?"

"That's right, Mom has always been inside you!"

"I see, that's how it is..."

Roy rubbed his temples.

I was suddenly hit by a huge surprise!

He remembered.

He woke up when he heard a gentle voice while he was on the outside of the world; he thought he was dreaming.

So that was Tiamat.

The source said that he had already been compensated before he reached the border, and he could find out by looking inside his own body afterward.

Roy was so tired that he fell asleep as soon as he got back and didn't have time to look for anything.

And now, that compensation itself has leaped out of his body!

"Tiamat is the compensation that the Root mentioned!"

Roy finally understood.

This compensation is truly... enormous!

Although he knew that the Root had given him some compensation, he really didn't expect it to be so great. After all, it was his own problem that he was brought to this world and reincarnated into a android body—if the Root wasn't lying—the Root was just going with the flow and nurturing him in this way. Although he did experience a lot of torment, if he could exchange that torment for a Tiamat, Roy still felt it was a huge win!

"Mom, you're so amazing, do you think there's any hope for my health?"

Roy quickly stood up and sat opposite Tiamat, looking at her expectantly.

"Simple, simple!"

Tiamat was overjoyed to receive the title of "Mom" and a compliment from him.

"Mom has a power to give you. With that power, changing the activity of your body's cells won't just be easy, it'll be twice as easy! Huh? Twice as easy means easier, or harder...?"

Tiamat tilted her head, her little face scrunched up, pondering the problem with a bewildered expression.

The power of Ti Ma?

Roy's eyes lit up.

He has been using his artificial human body for seven or eight years, and his lifespan has been mostly used up. If things continue like this, he will die of old age in about five more years at most.

Although Orange prepared a spare body for him and would replace it once the Holy Grail War ended, the body Orange could create would not exceed the limits of humanity.

Although it's not nice to say this to Orange, that's just how it is.

Tiamat, on the other hand, is a creator goddess, and a creator goddess who specializes in life and possesses almost all life-related powers!

To what extent can she improve her body with her power?

"What kind of power is that? How do you use it?"

"Don't rush, you need to sign a contract with Mom first!"

Tiamat snapped out of her daze and a gentle, lively smile spread across her face.

"In the human view of magic, the two parties who form a contract will have a power imbalance, and the stronger power will be transferred to the weaker party through the contract."

"However, Mom's power is too strong, so I can't pass on too much to you. At most, I can only give you A-rank body modification ability equivalent to a Servant."

"Actually, Mom originally wanted to share the power with you, but your body and soul are too weak to bear it. Mom can't share the power with you; that would only harm you. Mom is so useless, boohoo..."

Tiamat's lips twitched, and tears welled up in her eyes, as if she were about to cry at any moment.

"Mom is amazing!"

Roy immediately composed himself, held his breath, and solemnly gave a thumbs up.

"It's not Mom's fault, it's because I'm still too weak. Even if I only get a little bit of power, it's already very useful to me, and it's enough. Mom's power has been a great help!"

"really?"

Tiamat blinked, holding back her tears, and looked at Roy with a mixture of anticipation and trepidation.

"Of course! I don't know what I would do without my mom. Oh, I'm so lucky to have a mom like Tiamat!"

Roy nodded repeatedly, praising Tiamat incessantly.

"That's great! Roy is such a good boy, Mommy loves Roy!"

Tiamat's mood instantly brightened, and a radiant smile bloomed on her face, as if wisps of light were falling from it.

That smile is dazzling!

I want to protect my mother's smile!

"Then, my child, sign the contract with your mother now!"

"it is good!"

Seeing Tiamat cheer up again, Roy breathed a sigh of relief and quickly prepared the contract magic.

Human magic would normally have no effect on a creator goddess like Tiamat, but if Tiamat herself initiates the attack, that's a different story.

Although contract magic is divided into many types, it can be broadly classified into two categories. One type is an unequal contract, in which one party exploits the other. The extreme inequality is the master-servant contract, which is actually the contract between a master and a servant. The other type is an equal contract, in which the two parties form a magical cause and effect rather than a contract.

The contract that Roy and Tiamat signed was, of course, an equal one, and it was Tiamat who initiated it, which Roy accepted.

Once the contract is established.

Roy could feel a causal connection between himself and Tiamat. At the same time, an inexplicable power was immediately transmitted from Tiamat to his own body through the contract thread.

Chapter 136 Skills: Body Modification

Roy couldn't explain what kind of ability it was.

If I had to put it into words, it would be the ability to control my body freely.

Roy didn't know exactly how far it could go. This power had originally been transferred from Tiamat to him, and Roy couldn't even control it well, nor did he understand how to use it.

Fortunately, there was a master of life creation right in front of him, so Roy asked Tiamat how to use this power.

Equivalent to Level A body modification, simply put, it means arbitrarily modifying the body, not only the surface tissues such as skin, muscles, bone marrow, and internal organs, but also the deep cells and genes, all within the scope of control.

Of course, there are limits to this kind of modification.

Theoretically speaking, Rank A body modification skills represent the highest level a Servant can achieve, but the gap is enormous compared to Rank EX, which reaches the realm of gods.

Given Roy's current physical and spiritual strength, obtaining an A-level body modification skill is already the limit.

To obtain a body transformation comparable to that of a god, one must share in Tiamat's life power. Physical requirements are secondary; the most important thing is that the soul must be elevated to the level of a god.

But for Roy at present, even an A-level body modification is more than enough.

At the very least, there would be absolutely no problem in modifying his congenitally defective artificial human body to be like that of a normal person, possessing the same organs, lifespan, and genes as ordinary people.

He can even use this skill to enhance his muscle and bone density, improve his physical fitness, and thus get rid of the label of being a frail android.

Tiamat is very tolerant and very gentle.

She answered Roy's questions without reservation, sharing everything she knew without holding anything back.

"In general, you'll need to practice gradually to master this power; there are no shortcuts. Mom really wants to help you master it right away, but Mom can't..."

As she spoke, Tiamat lowered her head in frustration.

"The fact that it's difficult to control shows that my mother's power is very strong and very useful to me, doesn't it?"

Roy earnestly comforted her.

"I see!"

Tiamat slammed her fist into her palm and suddenly realized what was going on.

Roy nodded secretly.

He felt he had grasped a little bit of the knack for communicating with Tiamat.

"Hooah..."

As they were talking, Tiamat suddenly yawned slightly and rubbed her eyes as if she were sleepy.

"Roy, Mom's been a bit busy lately and can't keep an eye on you all the time. Take care of yourself."

She nodded her head, looking somewhat bewildered, as if she was extremely sleepy.

"Then you should get some rest, Mom."

"Mmm, Roy is such a considerate son to his mother. But if anything happens, Roy can call Mom anytime. Mom will come to help you no matter how busy she is, ooh..."

Tiamat yawned widely, then crawled towards Roy on all fours and pressed herself against his chest.
