Once Human, Now a Parasite - Chapter 676
Chapter 676: 676
"Is it far?" Asked Lucy as she gazed at the pink-colored sea, which seemed harmless, contrary to the rumors they heard about it on the way here .
"It's definitely in this sea but I can't pinpoint the exact location . "
Makaze was constantly calling for him and the closer he got, the more intense the callings became . They were standing at the edge of a steep cliff and looking at the calm sea .
This place was a boundary between two universes so there were no mortals here and as it's dangerous, not many merchants are willing to pass through it . Furthermore, you can fly above this sea so ships are rendered useless in this environment .
The two didn't linger there for too long, they took flight, heading forward, where the blade's signal was coming from .
Actually, both Arthur and Lucy knew very little about this place but they had enough confidence to defend themselves if dangerous arises along the way .
Despite it being called a boundary, the Rose Sea is unimaginably vast stretching for millions upon millions of kilometers . Moreover, there are many inhabited islands scattered all over, some ruled by tyrants or rare races and others are simply resting places .
"How about this?"
Lucy, who was sitting in front of Arthur aboard the flying Dark Cloud, grinned and flashed her new hair, which was colored pink, just like the sea below them .
"Hmm, it's beautiful but I prefer silver . "
"Is that so?" She pouted and after pondering for a few seconds, she changed into a more ambiguous pose before speaking again,
"Not even like this?"
She was wearing a long robe but the way she was sitting, her thighs were exposed, she even purposely unbuttoned the top, showing a bit of her snow-white skin to Arthur .
The man wryly smiled and turned his gaze away while replying,
"If you keep this up then there's no telling what will happen to you . "
"Ah! Please tell me . "
She leaned closer to him, her hot breath brushing against his neck, making his heart beat faster . Before he could do anything, the woman planted her lips on his neck and lightly bit down but, surprisingly, Arthur showed great restraint and only hugged her without delving into the 'uncharted territories' .
…
Four hours later, the Dark Cloud arrived at what seemed to be a small archipelago . There seemed to be a sizable amount of people present, players, and cultivators, though the latters were more numerous .
The couple jumped from the Dark Cloud and landed on the coast, one or two kilometers away from a medium-sized settlement .
The reason behind their stop is none other than Lucy, who needed a relatively safe place to absorb the rewards she received the Red Tower . She already started merging with the Ice Phoenix's drop but haven't fully finished the process .
Arthur's sense was able to cover the entirety of the island . None of the people present could threaten him as the strongest individual was an old man at the peak of the God Monarch Realm .
Although he considered all the rest as weaklings, they were still Sovereigns, Gods, and High-leveled players, nevertheless, they cannot threaten the parasite .
Everyone was split into groups and there was at least one God Monarch protecting them as the atmosphere around the Rose Sea can affect the passing travelers . It seemed to have a permanent effect on one's mind but a simple Dark Barrier was more than enough to negate that .
The duo didn't head to the town and, instead, swiftly built a decent and habitable place inside an abandoned cave .
Arthur decorated the place with luxurious and comfortable furniture and built a solid formation which amassed Mana for Lucy, who sat cross-legged on the bed and started meditating . It was a critical time for her and there must be no distractions .
Unfortunately, trouble always follows the parasite, who was woken up of his meditation the very next day of their arrival .
His form blurred then vanished, appearing a couple of hundred meters outside of the cave . It was a dry forest with a ground that lacked grass and trees that had no leafs or fruits .
The parasite, in his human appearance, gazed at three people barely fifty meters away . They couldn't even sense him as they were preoccupied with their own troubles or desires .
The group of three was composed of two males and one female . One of the males was a young man while the other was a middle-aged man who seemed to be in his late forties, though his real age is older, of course .
As for the woman, she could be considered a beauty, her body was voluptuous and she was wearing lots of gold jewelry in her neck, ankle, and wrists .
"You bitch!"
The youngster slapped the living daylights of the woman, causing her to fall on the ground, her cheek totally red . Arthur knew that she was stronger than the young man but she didn't retaliate, probably afraid of the other man, who was a God Monarch .
"You dare trick me?"
The youth showed no mercy, he mounted the woman and slapped her face again .
"So what if I slept with another man? It's not like I'm yours!"
"You're still talking?"
He slapped her a third time then ripped her clothes, apparently going to do the unspeakable as his eyes were burning with lust .
The middle-aged man was crossing his arms and calmly watching from the side .
The woman noticed what the youth intended to do and was about to struggle only to feel an inexplicable heaviness inside her body . Her cultivation was suppressed by the youth's guardian, who was at the God Monarch Realm .
"Don't think of resisting me! I'll play you then feed your corpse to the fish!"
Within a minute, the young man ripped all her clothes, exposing her bulging breasts and fair skin . He was so engrossed in his lust that, unlike his guardian, didn't notice the arrival of an unfamiliar black-clothed man .
The man, Bradaris, frowned and stared at the incoming Arthur . He couldn't gauge the other party's cultivation, making him feel slightly nervous, still, he softly smiled and politely said,
"Senior, please do not mind this . "
"I'm not going to mind this . Go do this somewhere else . "
Arthur pointed at the way opposite of the cave and coldly spoke to the God Monarch, who frowned but didn't retort .
Only when the parasite spoke did the youth sober up and turned his head . His genitals were already exposed and he was ready to begin .
"Save me! Please save me! Senior!"
The woman loudly shrieked, her face full of tears as she begged Arthur, who didn't even flinch . Involving himself in these minor problems will lead to nothing but more trouble . He appeared here because Lucy was in a half-enlightenment state and even a bit of sound, like the shouts of this woman, can disturb her and hinder her progress . Basically, it's better that she meditated in a totally quiet and peaceful place .
"Save me! I beg of you! PLEASE!"
"Shut up!"
The young man slapped her again, causing her lips to become bloody . She groaned and tried to open her mouth again but he blocked it .
"Didn't you hear me? Leave this place . "
"Right away, Senior . "
The middle-aged man was about to order the youth to contain himself only for the latter, who was lost in his desires, to loudly shout .
"Senior! I'm just going to finish real soon…"
Unfortunately, the youth wasn't able to finish his sentence . His head dropped to the ground and his limp and lifeless body fell on the startled woman .
"If you don't leave this second, you'll be next . "
Shocked to see his nephew die so suddenly, Bradaris was infuriated but he didn't dare do anything . He quickly collected his thoughts and left the area, not even minding the woman .
After seeing the God Monarch leave, Arthur vanished, appearing in the cave again . As for the woman, she regained her cultivation and also swiftly escaped this place before more enemies arrive .
