While many people in the Spatial Kingdom covered their eyes or bowed their heads, the few who could see what was happening saw Titus stop moving.

At that moment, the old man's body began to change shape, losing some of the classic characteristics of the Nine-Tailed Fox, such as its fur, which was visible even in its humanoid form.

Beasts like Titus didn't usually wear clothes in their humanoid form. They used their bestial parts to cover their genitals and other body parts.

The moment Titus began to change, these fur 'clothes' disappeared from him, and his humanoid body became perfectly human-like as it was born.

Titus was tall, an old man. As he stood naked, all the people could see him and what they might not have wanted to see...

But no one found it funny or disgusting. The few who watched Titus saw the essence of this being leaving the unstable state of a moment ago, still a bit chaotic but with less chance of exploding.

At the same time, his body became more vigorous, stabilizing his strength at the beginning of level 90 without any risk to his life.

But it had come at a high price. His soul now bore a mark that could not be erased, something that anyone observing the situation knew would allow Minos to control Titus as he wished.

Despite Titus' heartbeat and apparent life, he was now no different than a puppet that would follow its master's orders to the letter, something that would live and exist for its master.

Titus' will disappeared, and Minos was all that existed for him. He still had all the memories and knowledge of the Nine-Tailed Fox that he was. But now, he was no different than a tool waiting for orders.

He could no longer feel any pain or emotion. As soon as he became the puppet of Minos' soul, he calmed himself down by kneeling before his master.

Minos felt it all as the lightning disappeared, feeling in his being the control he now had over Titus and what it had cost both sides to use the Soul Puppet.

Titus had utterly lost his individuality. Meanwhile, Minos was very weak, having used up some of his chaotic energy, something extremely exhausting, capable of giving even a Demigod severe headaches, dizziness, and the urge to vomit.

Feeling the exhaustion overtake him, Minos almost lost his balance and took a step forward, lowering his upper body to vomit.

The stronger men in the area immediately helped him, giving him a hand and asking him what he felt.

"Shit! The mistakes of the ancients are really terrible." Minos said as he couldn't stand it anymore and started to vomit right there. "I know the damage I've just suffered is reversible and easy to fix, but how did those bastards use that technique millions of years ago? Was it some kind of sacrificial art?"

As they listened, the men there understood Minos' point.

The level 94 Demigod who had suggested this way sighed, aware that many things really needed to be adjusted for this technique to work properly.

Then he asked. "What is Titus' situation, Your Majesty? I see he's no longer in danger of exploding, but he doesn't look good either..."

Minos finished vomiting and looked at Titus, feeling sorry for the old fox. In a way, the Titus everyone knew had died!

"This ancient method is really cruel... It saved Titus' life, but he completely lost his individuality." Minos said to all the scholars and guinea pigs around him, causing some of them to mutter to themselves in shock, feeling sorry for the old fox.

"I see..." The level 94 Demigod realized that this was indeed the case. "Unfortunately, the Soul Puppet is irreversible. Otherwise, we could have made this experiment successful."

"Yes." Minos agreed, already realizing that the stability the Soul Puppet had given to Titus' existence had allowed the fox to evolve into something entirely new!

Titus was no longer a Nine-Tailed Fox. He had lost his essence as a member of that race and mutated into a new kind of species!

That had nothing to do with the Soul Puppet. It was because of the stability he had achieved to stabilize his existence at level 90. With this stability, the changes that had begun at the beginning of the experiment transformed him to allow him to be at the 10th stage.

Minos and the strongest experts there easily realized this, which was the positive side of the whole experiment. Although they had lost Titus, they now knew what would happen to beings like him if they transcended their limits.

They would inevitably cease to be members of their race and become special mutants!

If it were possible to reverse the Soul Puppet, Titus might be able to regain his individuality and enjoy his new characteristics. Unfortunately, this was impossible.

Minos took a pill to recover from his exhausted state and asked Titus. "What do you feel? How should I call you now?"

"This one feels excellent, my master! Call me whatever you want." Titus said without feeling in his voice, which made some people feel moved when they looked at him.

"I see. Given your knowledge, can you still be considered a Nine-Tailed Fox?"

"Negative. This one has evolved and should now be considered a member of a new species. I'm still a fox, but I'm different from what I was. My powers have also evolved, although they are of the same type and based on the same laws as my previous powers." Titus said, revealing some essential things for this experiment.

Minos looked at his men and saw that some of their suspicions were correct. "It seems beasts that go through this will evolve and change their race... That must be some kind of evolution aimed at the prehistoric creatures of Panvuter's time."

One of their theories was that since the beings of this world retained some of the genes of the ancient beings, by increasing the chaotic energy within themselves, they would change races and look more like their ancestors who had disappeared into the river of history.

However, it wouldn't necessarily happen to everyone in the same way.

But seeing it happen to Titus, those involved in Minos' experiments and plans couldn't help but think that it would happen to other Nine-Tailed Foxes going through the same thing as Titus and beings from other bestial races.
