"Although I am not supposed to tell you this because she won't like it but she isn't pure human. One of her parents was likely Demi-Human so she also has some similarities with them," Jiang Shuang explained.
"Really? From which subspecies is she?" Rex asked in an excited tone.
"That… I already said too much. I also need to respect her privacy, so I can't tell you that and Master Rex, please don't let her know I told you she isn't a pure human… She doesn't like to be mentioned in the hybrid category," Jiang Shuang said in a low volume. He was relieved that Rex really didn't differentiate between people from other species.
"I see… Okay then, you focus on shifting your things to the castle and I will go check on some other things. Oh, yeah, one more thing… call me Rex from now on" Rex said then left.
'Elder Jiang and Little Jiang should have finished moving all the goods from other branches of Myriad Auction House to the one in Corentis. I should go and check on them, if I am moving here then I also need to tell them about "it",' Jiang Shuang thought.
Rex was roaming in the region to observe the current development progress of Frozen Flame.
When he was looking at the newly built buildings he noticed baby beast chasing a butterfly.
'Come to think of it, I still haven't checked his body after the mutation was over,' (Rex)
"Hey little guy come here," Rex called the baby beast.
When the baby beast heard his voice it stopped what it was doing and quickly came running like an obedient little kid.
"Wait... Wait, baby, I can't carry you like before," Rex was a little embarrassed when he saw the baby beast was about to jump into his arms.
The baby beast looked a little disappointed, but it still stopped.
Rex gently rubbed its head, he could now feel his hand touching the polished, jade-like surface of the scales on its head.
Rex analyzed him while still rubbing its head to get a better appraisal result.

Rex sucked in a breath of cold air.
'And everyone says I am the cheater,' Rex thought as he looked at the interface.
[Like father, Like son… both are cheaters.]
'Don't forget you are my cheat, but come to think of it, didn't you say he wouldn't get any ability as strong as mine,' Rex wondered.
[Yeah, and he didn't obtain any abilities as unique or strong as yours. The abilities he has are not impossible to achieve for a beast with a powerful bloodline, but… When I say that, I mean for a strong beast, it's not difficult to obtain one or two ability like that, but gaining so many of them…, that's something to think about.
And another thing, as I said before, this advantage is limited to only him, his progeny wouldn't get any similar benefits. The abilities or traits, they will receive, will be what he develops on his own and not the ones he got because of the bloodline merging.
And having your lineage doesn't mean your bloodlines are exactly same, it's just that after merging, your bloodline took priority over the other and it can be said, he has your blood flowing through his veins.]
'I know, but it's still not fair he gained so many traits with a single evolution hmmm… the seven-headed thing, in his name, is missing too' (Rex)
[The beasts from Seven-Headed-Drakon race don't have seven heads, because they have 'Seven-Heads' in the name of their race, but are called Seven-Headed-Drakon because they grow seven heads in their full-fledged form. It's not like he wouldn't grow more heads, just because there is no 'Seven-Heads', in his race identifier]
"Come to think of it, little guy, you don't have a name yet, let me think of something for you…" Rex started to think of a name for baby beast.
Baby beast's eyes shined, after being with Rex all this time, it started to somewhat understand his language. Although its mentality was that of a child, but after the bloodline merging and advancement, its intelligence became pretty high for someone of the same level.
"How about… Snowy?" Rex asked
The baby beast shook all his heads in rejection
"Whitey?" (Rex)
Baby beast rejected again
"Gullo?"
"Alen?"
"Aren?"
"Liren?"
"Rex Junior?"
"Shiro?"
"Drakomon?"
"T-Rex?"
Rex came up with multiple names, but the baby beast kept shaking its names.
"Little Fake Hydra?" (Rex)
Baby beast was about to shake his head again, but he abruptly stopped.
"Seven-Headed-Dragon v2.0?" Rex thought then said.
Baby beast quietly stared at Rex.
[You sure you're not mocking him instead of naming him.]
'It's fun to tease him, look at that adorable expression he makes,' (Rex)
"Don't get angry I was just kidding, how about Andusk?" Rex tried again.
Baby beast pondered for a while, then he again shook his head in rejection.
'Well it's not easy to name him when I think about it, it's better if I'd discuss it first with his mother, before choosing a name for him. Come to think of it, she also doesn't have a name, lets think of one for her too,' Rex thought.
Rex was thinking, but suddenly he felt something, he took out a Talisman from his storage ring.
The Talisman shined brightly for a second before going back to its normal uninteresting self.
'She used the SOS Talisman, looks like the Beastmen Village was attacked,' Rex didn't think more and used Instant Transmission.
The baby beast gazed upon the place where Rex was just standing, then shook its head in disappointment. In the past month, Rex was mostly focusing on the Core Smart Brain so he wasn't able to spend much time with it.
It looked at the ground with slight sadness for a while, before it saw a yellow butterfly flying a little far away and started chasing it again.
Beastmen Village…
Aiden and Fred were fighting the people of Monster Hunting Sect near the entrance cave of Beastmen Village.
Right now their looks weren't the same as before, they looked more like monsters and less like humans.
Aiden's bulky body was now even bigger than before, moreover, it was covered in brown fur and his head resembled that of a bear, rather than a human, only his body shape still resembled a human's.
Fred on the other hand was covered in white fur and his head was similar to a bird… an eagle to be exact. He also had a pair of big wings on his back.
It was the Semi-Beast Transformation, the specialty of Demi-Humans.
Aiden swung his long broad sword and cut the two approaching humans in half. Right now his strength was not something to be messed with.
Fred on the other hand was like a fleeting white shadow, whenever it passed by a man, the man would die without even getting a chance to defend himself.
There was also a female lizard woman near them, her whole body was covered in dragon-like scales. Whenever an enemy managed to land a hit on her using their weapons, it would only produce sparks and nothing else.
Although they all had good battle strength, but right now their condition wasn't that good. They have been fighting for a long time resulting in them being exhausted.
The one with the highest endurance was Aiden, but with time he received many injuries and now his whole body was covered in severe injuries.
Fred was fast enough to dodge most of the attacks, but he was equally exhausted from the prolonged fight.
Van, the lizard woman also looked on the brink of collapse, unlike Fred her specialty wasn't her speed, so she had to take the attacks head on, but her stamina and strength weren't like Aiden.
Fortunately, they were able to finish off the enemies in front of them and got some time to control their breathing.
"Hold on for a little while longer, they will give up soon. Dreg and others will come and help after they have taken care of the other intruders" Aiden tried to motivate them when he saw their condition. He himself was barely able to feel his body, his vision was slightly blurry and he was forcing his body to move only by the power of his will.
"Wait I see someone coming looks like they took care of the intru…what" Fred was looking around while flying to check on the situation in the village, his vision was also his specialty, he could see far away things easily that's why he was able to see the humanoid lizard man like silhouette approaching him.
But when the silhouette came near them and Fred took a closer look, he frowned. He flew towards Drain who was on the brink of collapse and supported him.
Aidenn and Van also looked at his miserable condition and frowned.
Fred even saw a few daggers and arrows stabbed in his back, Fred first took out those weapons from his back then he took out his last remaining pill and tried to place it in his mouth, but Dreg grabbed his hand and stopped him.
"huf..hu Don'… it.. o.on me .. even if I re.covered I won't be in the condition to.. fight anymore," Dreg said while trying to maintain his consciousness.
"Ho.w.. did this happen? Who did this… What happened to Drain and others, are they alive?" Van asked in an anxious tone as she bandaged Dreg's wound.
"Drain… don't speak that bastard's name anymore, he was the mole that colluded with Monster Hunting Sect and secretly dug a tunnel to the village to let them in," When Dreg heard the name he was so furious, he used all his strength and said in a loud tone.
"How can he…" Van was shocked she couldn't believe that a fellow comrade, who used to drink and eat with them, betrayed them just like that.
"No wonder suddenly so many of them appeared inside the village," Fred said in a calm tone, he had traveled the world with Aiden so he has seen many things like that already, but even so, the thought of a brother-like comrade betraying them still hurt him.
"What about the others," Aiden asked in a low tone.
Dreg didn't speak, he just shook his head.
Aiden clenched his fist, the meaning was obvious although he already got the idea, but he still hoped that Drain may have colluded on a condition like let them live or something, but the facts were definitely not like that.
"What about the normal villagers and the children?" Aiden held back his anger and asked.
"Th.ey.. ar.e.. still alive…, but those… people will use them as… hostages," Dreg said, while still lying there.
"Fred, take Dreg and Van and leave this place this instant. With your speed, you should be able to leave" Aiden said as he turned around and walked towards the village.
