Seems like just a wild cat, boss,” one of the subordinates picked up the black cat, examining him for a moment before tossing him aside.

The black cat’s eyes lit up. He didn’t dare to make eye contact with Jaws, turning his head and pretending to groom his fur.

“Is it?” Jaws asked with a half–smile, looking down at the black cat.

Even without seeing his expression, the black cat felt a chill down his spine, and his movements grew stiffer.

The space was crowded, and even with Edmund’s strong mental composure, under such pressure, it was hard to remain calm.

The air grew quiet for a long moment.

“Edmund,” Jaws suddenly spoke.

The black cat froze for a moment.

Even though it was just for an instant, he revealed a flaw.

Sweat ran down his back, but he wasn’t giving up, still trying to keep up the act.

Jaws lost patience and stopped playing along. “Stop pretending in front of me, I can see through you.”

Back in the lab, he had overheard some researchers talking, and he knew that Edmund was jealous of Aurelius’s ancestral abilities and had modified his own genes.

Although the modification failed, it gave him the ability to transform into a cat.

Edmund looked up in confusion. He saw the unmasked hatred and murderous intent in Jaws‘ eyes, but he didn’t understand where it came from.

He thought, ‘Is it because of Nyx? All I did is send someone to make contact with Nyx. Why would Jaws hate me this much?”

In a daze, Edmund suddenly thought the face before him looked familiar, and a distant memory flashed in his mind. “You? Is it you?”

He couldn’t remember this experiment subject anymore, as he had never paid attention.

Pirates, and you’re just an experiment?” Jaws asked.
