If not for the faint traces of blood still left on the ground, it would have seemed as though I'd never cut into the flesh at all.
They had minds and emotions of their own, and could change shape at will. How had I never had something so convenient before~
After I put away the dragon armor, they disappeared. I could feel the tissue merging into my skin, connecting tightly with my muscles and
blood.
Once separated from me, they could even understand my commands within a certain range. I didn't need to say anything; just thinking was
enough...
I think... this must be some kind of connection between the tissues?
They seemed to communicate with one another through electrical currents of a particular frequency.
That was also why they had intelligence.
And the smaller they were, the less intelligent they became.
Once they were under five centimeters, they were almost reduced to pure instinct. They couldn't evolve any organs or tissues, either,
and could only instinctively search for things.
I tried feeding one a piece of meat, and it actually managed to devour it.
Vegetables worked, too.
