The Day She Became the Malevolent Demon Lord

Chapter 16

Two Days Later...

After the colony sided with Nadia's cause, she assigned a few people to hand out some weapons and lessons as the fight with continue soon and she'll need every bit of help she can get.

If it were humans, it'll take weeks, months, and possibly years to complete. But when it comes to ants, most showed potential in a matter of hours while the rest were average but had a different kind of talent elsewhere.

From what she understands is that some of the ants are born as soldiers, and they require a bit of time and training to become combat efficient.

But she wouldn't stop there...

The Evolutionist continued to work on improving the ant's biological capabilities by using the deceased ants as material and Nadia's own DNA as the key ingredient to the ant's evolution.

But thinking back, Nadia couldn't help but recall a certain incident...

Flashback

After Nadia's army had arrived, and the colony joined her cause, Everyone spent most of their time familiarizing themselves with one another in the span of half a day.

In the midst of this, Willow conversed with Assassin and warned her to watch out for herself.

That's when disaster struck as soon as Assassin made a mention to a certain someone in the room, and gazes at a particular ant in the room, "If you wish to be cautious, I'd prefer you keep your eyes on him instead of me,"

Willow turns to the same gaze as hers, and spots the Evolutionist alone and preoccupied with his own business.

"Why should I be cautious around him?" Willow questioned,

"After he was rescued from captivate, he said that his true capabilities lie in spinning ant sequences and their evolutionary process," Assassin explained, "When Nadia heard of this, she deliberately chops one of her spider legs and gave it to him. What's more, he sees people as material rather than living beings,"

This information had agitated Willow down to her core, especially when the part where Nadia chopped one of her spider legs was mentioned, "Is that so..."

With this in mind, Willow suddenly directs her murderous intent towards the Evolutionist, though she didn't hide very well as everyone excluding Assassin suddenly steps back from the Arachnid.

Nadia took notice and learned that her murderous intent is directed at the Evolutionist. This caused her to spring into action, demanding that she stand down, and it soon leads to a long argument between her and Willow.

Though the latter wouldn't listen until Nadia explained his importance to her plan before the Arachnid Queen even laid a single finger on the Evolutionist. This was backed up by Osman and his group's claim...

End of Flashback

The very thought of this incident always caused Nadia to pinch her eyes as Willow keeps a close eye on the Evolutionist, and will not hesitate to kill him on the spot. She went as far as to kill him should he turn traitor.

As for the Evolutionist himself, he had changed drastically when he, too, was given a name...

But recalling his change of appearance was something that she didn't expect...

When the Evolutionist was named 'Altan' by Nadia, his body suddenly froze and his carapace slowly became brown similar to a caterpillar's metamorphosis.
