Chapter 8 - Conspiracy

"I don't know anything else, please don't kill me." Shouted the voice. Jax wasn't happy with what he heard. 'They want to rebel against Elizabeth, I can get more from her using it.' Jax took paper and started to write a letter.

...

Elizabeth was in her office, signing documents and reading reports.

"People are getting anxious because of the famine, and the activity of monsters is rising. What else will come?" She heard knocking on her door.

"Come in." Her butler came in with a letter.

"It's a letter from Jax from the Zephir Clan." When he finished, he felt that the temperature in the air is rising. For Elizabeth Jax was a topic of great shame, he as a kid, outsmarted her, but she calmed down.

"Put it on my desk and go." Butler put a letter on the desk and exited the office.

"What did he write to me?" She opened it and started to read.

"Elizabeth, first thing, I ask you to send a letter to the academy to make an exam for me to skip grades." She hated that Jax didn't even refer to her as a queen. "The second thing is that I have something extremely important for you. I could go to you myself, but it's less suspicious for you to come here" Elizabeth didn't like Jax, but if he was saying it's something extremely important, he must mean it.

"Guards!" She yelled. A few soldiers appeared in her office.

"Yes, my queen"

"Prepare carriage I go to Zephir Clan," She ordered, and she prepared herself.

...

Jax was playing with his mother outside, when he heard horses. 'She is quick.' He smiled. Abigail looked at carriage.

"Oh God, it's the carriage of the royal family. Why would someone like that be here?" She was scared. Jax, on the other hand, was calm.

Some time later, he and his family were sitting with Elizabeth.

"It's an honor to host you, your majesty. We are ashamed we didn't prepare anything." Said Haytham.

"Don't worry, it's my fault, I came here unannounced." She smiled. "I want to talk with Jax. Is that okay with you?"

"Yes, it's a great pleasure that you want to talk with our son." Abigail smiled.

"I'm happy. Jax, can you lead me to your room?"

"Yes, of course, your majesty." Jax answered. 'Your majesty, your ass.' she thought.

Some time later, they were in his room.

"So what was so important for you to contact me?" Jax put the soul-capturing box on the table.

"You should look yourself, Elizabeth." He cut off the soul thread.

"I said, it's all I know." Elizabeth was surprised to hear voice from the box.

"It's the soul of someone who wanted to kidnap me and use against you, Elizabeth. There is a conspiracy against you. Hey Shadow, tell her majesty everything you told me"

Soul started to tell Elizabeth everything, from who hired him, to why they wanted to rebel, and that they even caused famine to stir up people. When Shadow stopped talking, Elizabeth barely held back her anger. She calmed herself a few moments later.

"I don't like you, but I must thank you for this. I know that you didn't do that for free. What do you want?"

"I want my family to gain part of the assets of rebels, I want my own land and title, also I want you to give me mages and knights that you will capture for experiments."

"That's a lot, but I accept. Could you give me that box?" She asked.

"Sure, take it, you will not be able to copy it anyway, and also, we don't like each other, but I don't want unnecessary wars, and you aren't a bad ruler, so do anything you can to make sure they will be killed." Jax's reply shocked Elizabeth. 'Is he sick to give me a compliment? No, there is no way, someone as annoying as him would never be sick.'

Elizabeth took the box, and instructions from Jax on how to use it, and went back to the palace.

'What is your plan now?' Hephaestus asked.

'I need to create a stable version of the regeneration serum, it will take a few months. Elizabeth will then destroy rebellion inside the kingdom, and then we will be able to work with mages and knights.' Jax went to sleep.

...

A few months later, in the royal experiment room.

"You fucking child, I will kill you, because of you, my entire family was killed. You heard me! I will destroy you!" Yelled the man who was cuffed to the metallic table.

"Yeah, I know this, but you will die, and I will live." Jax said, while he injected regeneration serum into the man's body. Using [Researcher Eyes] he was able to see that serum was able to perfectly fuse with a man's body. This man was one of the rebel soldiers that Elizabeth captured. He wasn't a knight, so he was good for experimenting on. When Jax saw that the process of fusing was done, he took a knife and stabbed the man repeatedly. He missed vital organs, and to his delight, the man's wounds were healing in front of his eyes.

"The only problem is that, his body is using a lot of stored fat. It's not a big problem, I just need to give instructions and create some meals that are packed to the brim with everything." He already suspected something like this will happen, and was halfway through creating, highly energetic bar that had 4 or 5 thousands calories.

"You are a monster!" Man yelled.

"Maybe I am, maybe I am not. For you, I am a monster, but for my family, I am their son. What I am depends on people's views." He cut man's body more and more, and at some point, man's body lost a lot of weight, because of how much he regenerated. Jax knew that he wasn't useful anymore, so he just killed him. He used the button in the room to call soldiers to take body of dead soldier and bring him another one. Another slave was a female soldier. Soldiers cuffed her to the table and left the room.

"Hey boy, do you want to know how it feels to be with a woman? Uncuff me I will show you"

She tried to seduce him, and Jax was disgusted. He took another regeneration serum, but that one was different. He injected it, and after he saw everything had ended, he plunged a knife into the woman's eye.

"You fucker, you little piece of shit!" She yelled, and Jax pulled out the knife without pulling the eye out. A few minutes later, the woman's eye was regenerating itself, after that, he destroyed that woman's muscles and tendons. Which also regenerated. He killed at least 30 people, this day. He wanted to test the limits of regeneration against different types of damage. Some prisoners were electrocuted, some poisoned, and another few he threw acid at them. He needed to test everything. A few days later, he was in Elizabeth room.

"So this is a finished product?" She wanted to grab the box with regeneration serum and run away, but she knew it was stupid.

"Yeah, there are three versions. The first one is [Lesser Regeneration], it will not be as useful as others, but you can train more, endure more, etc., useful for training and also as a side effect, you need to consume a lot, so ladies will love it, they can eat as much as they want, without getting fat." Elizabeth was ashamed, but she wanted that effect for herself.

"And the other two types?" She urged him to talk.

"The second one is just [Regeneration] stab wounds, average poisoning, and broken bones. You can regenerate in minutes, if they aren't big. If all your bones are broken, you would need, at least a few weeks, but still, it's just a few weeks for full recovery compared to months. The third type is [Greater Regeneration] shattered bones, powerful poisons, acid, torned muscles, all of that and more can be easily regenerated. You can't regenerate with that missing limbs or lost eyes, but if it's still connected to you, it's highly possible that you will regenerate that part." Elizabeth's heart skipped a beat. It was too great to be true.

"Are there any side effects?" Elizabeth wanted to know.

"Other than eating a lot, if you take too much damage, your body will slow down regeneration. Also, also if you are seriously hurt, you need to eat something similar in size to a pig, but for that, I created bars that will give you a lot of everything you need to regenerate most things."

"What about infertility?" Elizabeth asked.

"Depends, is it because of the wound or a born defect?"

"Battlefield." She said, clenching her hands.

"It should be possible, but I don't guarantee it. If the wound is too old and already healed, you would need to force your body to destroy and regenerate." Elizabeth lost all hope.

"Well, I can, in my free time, try to see if I can figure something out." Elizabeth nodded absentmindedly. Jax explained the details he didn't mention, and how to use regeneration serum, and he exited the room. He didn't notice or tried to ignore that when he was exiting the room Elizabeth cried.

...

Jax was in the basement of his workshop. In his hand, he held completely different serum than what he showed to Elizabeth.

[Superior Regeneration Serum: serum made from using high orc blood. It can regenerate almost everything, and even heal birth defects]

"So here comes the moment of truth." Jax took a big breath. He wasn't sure if everything will go well enough.

'Don't worry, you did everything you could, and you couldn't detect anything using all your abilities.' Shiro tried to comfort him.

"Yeah, you are right." He took a syringe and injected [Superior Regeneration Serum] into his body. Immediately, Jax felt pain in his chest." It's worse than I thought, it will be." He scoffed, he sat down on the chair, and tried to just wait, but at some point he felt something deep down is awakening.

[Gods fragments in your soul influenced, [Superior Regeneration Serum], it creates deep roots in your body. Host doesn't need to worry. It's beneficial for the Host]

"How long will it take to finish that process? Also, also are there any side effects for the duration of this process?"

[It will take a week. Host will feel dizziness, also Host will feel sleepy, your body will hurt. Your mind will not be affected]

"At least my mind isn't affected." He stood up and started to walk out of the basement, but his body hurt at each step." Uhh! It really hurts"

'Take it as an opportunity to relax, your test results will come in a few days, and after another few days, your school will start. Your family misses you, especially your mother.' Shiro tried to convince him.

"Fine, I will." With each step on another and another stair, he was more and more convinced that 'I need to make a fucking elevator'. After 10 painful minutes, he was at the base level of his workshop.

[Skill [Pain Resistance] was created]

[Skill [Pain Resistance] is integrated into ability [Cold Blooded] ]

[Ability [Cold Blooded] leveled up]

"Are you mocking me?" He felt angry, and he also heard laughter in his head. All the Gods laughed at him. He painfully dragged his body home.
