Once Human, Now a Parasite

Chapter 649: 649

The moderately wide imitation Dark Cloud slowly rose into the air and was about to piece through the planet’s atmosphere only for three domineering presence to rush from below . The one leading was a middle-aged man wearing simple black clothes, he had hawk-like eyes and seemed to be stronger than the other two .

Arthur recognized one of them, which led him to easily guessing the identity of the person in the middle, who was undoubtedly human .

In the end, they were discovered by Warden Habs was step too late as the prisoners had already escaped and were about to leave the planet . Esco and Vyncent were nervous, Shen Shen curiously looked at the Warden and the two behind him while Zaarae only frowned but didn’t say anything . As for the mythical beings, they dutifully stood side by side and were prepared to engage in battle if necessary .

"Halt!"

Unsurprisingly, the first to talk and stop Arthur was the self-righteous Erandil, who unleashed his angelic aura in an attempt to forcefully stop the escapees . His eyes wandered around then locked onto Fariya, who was expressionlessly standing next to Arthur, unbothered by anything .

"Master, would you let me the honor, please?"

Since the moment she met him, Fariya hated the angel’s guts and always wanted to teach him a lesson . Now that she got stronger thanks to the boost granted by Arthur, she was confident enough in her abilities, furthermore, Arthur wouldn’t stand still in case things went awry, or so though the succubus .

Arthur glanced between the angel and the succubus before subtly nodding his head in acceptance . The moment she received her approval, Fariya disappeared, her figure leaving a beautiful purple energy in her path .

She attacked so suddenly and swiftly, her hands rapidly swung down a black whip, which instantly struck the unsuspecting Erandil . The poor angel was sent flying below, his thick white armor now had an ugly dent . In fact, the force behind her blow reached his internal organs and caused him to spit a bit of blood .

Seeing Fariya’s assault, neither Habs nor the man on his left acted . One was looking at Zaarae while the other was examining Arthur with an interested look .

Habs’ unfamiliar companion had vertical pupils and golden eyes, like a snake, his ears were a bit long like an elf’s and his body was inexplicably thin . This was the chief guard of the fourth level and a member of the Ratika Race, an odd person named Carpentine .

"I didn’t expect that amongst that famous Arthur MoonStar is amongst the new prisoners . Forgive my late introduction . "

Habs chuckled as he spoke to Arthur, appearing quite relaxed and unbothered by the fact that a few prisoners escaped, including the Parasite Empress .

"To think that the Warden knows of my name . I’m flattered . "

"How can I not? You and you’re army of undead are the talk of everyone in the multiverse for the period . Now that I had a good look at you, I can say with certainty that the rumors were not wrong . Actually, your power wasn’t given enough credit . "

Arthur looked at the Warden, who was smiling at him without a care in the world . He tried appraising him but it didn’t work at all, just like with Zaarae, however, he could feel the difference in their strengths . The man was no ordinary human, he was beyond the Exalted God Realm, an entity that should not be trifled with . Even with Zaarae present, the parasite still felt a bit of invisible pressure .

Zaarae walked in front of Arthur and arrogantly said, "Are you done with your bullshiterry? We are in a bit of a hurry . "

Habs continued smiling while politely replying, "Empress, you know that I can’t let you go just like that . " He pointed his finger to the sky and continued, "The ’top’ would blame and that would be... tiring . "

He chuckled as he remembered the annoying rulers of the heavens, who always looked down on him despite their inferiority in strength and their apparent lack of wisdom and intelligence .

"And? Am I supposed to care about you? If you don’t want to get smacked then roll out!"

She waved her hand, causing both Carpentine and Habs to be pushed hundreds of meters away . The two couldn’t even resist as an unstoppable gale seemed to control their bodies and sent them flying like a pair of feathers .

While Habs managed to stabilize himself within a second, Carpentine wasn’t as lucky . His body was flung ten miles away and he had to fly back next to the Warden while wryly smiling . He knew too well of the Empress’ capabilities and that she can finish him and Habs in an instant but she won’t because it can bring trouble not to her but to her people, who are busy fighting another enemy . Yes, she’s very powerful but she’s not the same unrivaled being of the past, there are things she can’t accomplish with her current strength, which is why Habs dared to show himself here .

...

Dozens of miles away, Fariya was fiercely fighting Erandil, who spread his wings which shone with a golden light, quickly healing his injuries . No matter how much he fought back, he found himself at a serious disadvantage, the succubus’ whip would attack him from all sides and break his armor with each strike . He didn’t know how Fariya got this strong but the difference in power was more than he could handle .

"I’ll beat some sense into your stupid mind!"

Fariya was delighted as she underestimated the recent power-up, her increase in stats allowed her to easily cope with Erandil and consistently gain the upper hand . Her figure danced in the air as she evaded the angel’s flashy sword attacks, her whip beautifully spinning around her body before zigzagging in the air and striking the enemy .

The whip directly hit the angel’s face, causing a red mark to appear on his cheek... he even lost two teeth and though he tried to retaliate, a large pink snake leapt at him . The snake was triple his size and within a second, it wrapped its body around his and suffocating him . He tightly held his sword and attempt to slash the beast but it was futile, his armor shattered and many of his bones were broken .

A few seconds passed and the snake vanished but the whip remained, it was wrapped around Erandil’s neck .

Fariya appeared in front of the angel, she winked at him and raised her free hand . The whip loosened for a split second, causing the angel to gasp for some air and consequentially inhaling some of the purple energy leaking out of the succubus .

In less than a minute, the angel’s face flushed and his body started shaking . Even after Fariya retracted her whip, he remained unresponsive as his wings repeatedly covered him in golden light but it wasn’t able to expulse Fariya’s charm magic . In a way, her magic was similar to Dark Magic, once it enters a victim’s body, it becomes something else and cannot be negated using normal means .

Erandil’s face became redder as he felt blood rushing into his head then a strong feeling of arousal overcame him...
