(POV CLARE)

"good. He has healed me. I'll keep an eye on her condition in line with our plan."

"Good, don't disappoint me doctor."

"Good.mister."

—Some years before.

"We have to keep this a secret from the people. Don't let them know, because if they find out then we'll be ruined."

"Good!".

*ckritt

"Doctor, please sit down."

"mmm...."

Since the events of the appearance of mutants that began to unsettle, the, I was appointed by the government to lead a group tasked with studying mutants and stopping the growth of mutants.will but this task is not easy Because the mutated into mutants are human.

"So what do you think? How do we deal with mutants."

"Aren't we already there any laskara who can stop them."

Hmm laskara yes.the weapon is very profitable to fight the mutants now. But the longer the mutants continue to mutate the stronger they become. And we do not know when Laskara weapons began to be ineffective, especially if compared to the proliferation of humans, mutants are faster to grow so useless we rely on the weapons with the number of humans there.

"Are there other opinions?".

"What if we tried to transplant the brain? Which is where we can make mutants have human-like minds so we can fight them off in balance."

Is he crazy?! brain transplant, he said?!.

"I think the doctor, that's a nonsensical thought. We can't have a brain transplant because it's not possible. Even with technology like it is today, brain transplants are impossible!" I argued in a high tone.

"How is it impossible?! we already have the Laskara technology! 50% chance it was done successfully," denied the doctor.

"No, during this time the health laskara is only limited to as a process of accelerated healing.not more than that just allow the doctor."

My objections were supported by other doctors.

"True, while this laskara is only done as an accelerating growth. And also the brain is not possible to be transplanted because if the brain loses blood flow for five minutes then it will die. Because the brain is filled with billions of nerves and we can't possibly connect them all one by one."

"..."

Everyone was silent, no one spoke.

From there I was constantly looking for ways to reverse the situation where human growth and strength could exceed that of mutants, thus making the world go back to what it used to be. Until finally formed a group called Majapahit Lab which serves to find out how to stop the growth of mutants in this country.

"We've repeatedly tried to find a way to stop it, but it's still a failure!".

What should I do.. cell regeneration!.

I immediately called all the members of the group to discuss my findings, which is to regenerate cells to humans using mutant cells.

"So the reason I gathered you here is to talk about cell regeneration. We'll regenerate human cells using mutant cells."

"But doctor, can you do it? Because mutants are human beings too, and cells mutate, so the chances of us regenerating are the same as making more mutants!".

"No. As long as there are human cells in the human body, there is a small chance that humans are not fully mutants. And when those mutant cells start to spread, we use laskara to help human cells accelerate the immunity of mutant cells" I said with confidence.

"....."

"....."

"...."

"Well, as soon as we start testing the lab and find someone willing to be the subject of the experiment!".

I'm standing. "Let me...."

"Doctor Clara…."

I don't know why at that time I was willing to propose myself when I saw the possibility of success was very small. But it was also my idea to regenerate cells against humans. And I don't seem to want anyone to get hurt because I let alone if that person took their lives.

"Is the doctor sure?…."

"Yes!".

"Well, everybody get the lab room ready!".

"Good!".

"Doctor are you ready?".

"Ready."

"Starting the input of mutant cells into human cells in a matter of 3, 2, 1. Get started!".

*blub blub blub

I closed my eyes and I felt something enter my body.

It did not last long the process of entering the mutant cells was completed.

"Done."

"Doctor are you okay?".

"For the time being fine—arkhhhhh!!".

Not long after that I started to feel excruciating pain, like it was going to damage my entire cell body. And I saw the doctors start to panic and prepare laskara to prevent me from becoming a full mutant. And then my consciousness began to slowly disappear. But I still hear the doctors' voices.

"Doctors have an infection rate of 80%!".

"Immediately use laskara to speed up his immunity, lest we lose Dr. Clara!".

"Good!".

"Call the eagle team just in case!".

"Good doctor!".

"Akhar!".

Am I going to be a mutant? It seems that the laskara did not succeed in helping to speed up the immunity process and also the doctors have called the eagle team. That means if this lab test fails then I'll die?.

My consciousness went on and on until I fainted, I don't know what happened to me next.

—A few days later since that lab test.

The noise of the nurse robot rang out loud in my ear.

I woke up and was grateful that I was alive.?. And I looked younger? Maybe the cell regeneration lab test was done successfully. I was so excited to have done it. Suddenly there was a sound of people knocking on the door.

*tok tock

"Please come in."

*ckritt

*tap tap

Someone I didn't know walked into my ward and she was wearing a government suit.

"Who are you? And what do you need to find me?".

"Including my name Kario, I am the principal organiser of the government. I'm here to tell you that the lab tests you're doing are heavily criticized by the government for breaking some existing regulations. Therefore you will be imprisoned for life."

It is impossible. What we have done is for the good of us all. Why would the government want to arrest us all?! This is not fair! What about the other doctors?!

"What about the other doctors?! Were they arrested too?!".

"The rest of the doctors were found unresponsive at the lab test site. Do you know the cause?".

Are they dead? Not likely... There's no way they're dead and I'm the only one alive. Don't don't...

"I don't want to think about it. I don't want to go to jail. Are you still forcing?!".

"I'd guess. Then would you like to hear my offer in exchange for your punishment?".

"What'sthat?".

"You remain a doctor and continue to lead Majapahit Lab which is a branch of the Main Organization and serves as a place to care for people who are infected. But you must be under government surveillance. Do you agree?".

Hm. Interesting offer, rather than in prison for life.

"Alright, I'll take your offer!".

The man named Kario is smiling falsely at you.

"It's good that way, Dr. Clara."
