Summoning went wrong

Volume 2. Chapter 10. Copper falls

HeheheHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

HIS FACE! THE FACE HE IS MAKING! THIS IS THE BEST! FHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHA!

Damaging my own body to this extent is nothing. I could always jump into a new one and be done with it. 'Sides, I was getting bored playing the old man role, it's time to spice things up!

When the healer came to me, I destroyed my own heart, and while he was looking my avatar poured out of the corpse's mouth and entered into an unsuspected knight.

I didn't bother with checking his mind, I just destroyed it then used his body as a marionette.

"Showtime."

While everyone was occupied with my corpse, I followed the knight who dragged the hero to his private lounge.

Through the thick doors, I could hear him trash his stuff and shouting in anger.

The two guards didn't even say anything while I entered his room, they probably thought I came because I was ordered to.

"Sir, I have news about the person you saw last night."

"What?!" The hero of this country threw the chair away, that he was using to break his table then ran up to me. "What is it?"

"It was a message from the leader of a cult, and it was addressed to you."

"And what did it say? Tell me!" he came at me then grabbed my shoulders.

"It was three words, sir. Mind Magic: Blackout."

I grabbed his head and sent a great amount of magic into it.

Foam spilled out from his mouth then he collapsed on the ground.

My arm that was used for the magic, soon turned purple, with blood dripping out from my nails.

" This was easy. I wonder if there is an intact mirror here."

I looked around, finding a body mirror that was lying on the ground, intact. I lifted the hero onto my shoulders and used the mirror to appear at my palace.

While putting him down I went back to my true body.

"Someone, bring in a tattoo artist!"

While I was waiting, I took everything from him. The sword that he was holding was a simple silver sword while the armor was made from an extremely diluted mystic alloy, useless to me.

"Sigh, these days everyone can become a hero."

I threw the garbage to a corner of the room and waited for the tattoo artist to arrive.

"Did you call me my lord?"

Ah just in time.

A slim girl walked into my place, wearing a white robe, with black outlines, from her sleeves six slender arms could be seen each ending in bird-like claws. On top of her head, there was a bone fragment from an unidentifiable animal.

"Yes. One of my subordinates just brought a perfect candidate for the Colossus project. Someone like you, who made my dream of chimeras true, this will be a piece of cake."

Turns out chimeras were a pain to make. First, they needed a human host that has its body tattooed with a different summoning circle. Then it needs to be injected with an avatar fluid made from the different body parts of some animal dolls. This would hold the thing together and when the summoning circle is activated, the host won't have an arm in please of a head or something. But there is a limit to how many different parts can be put onto someone.
