Once Human, Now a Parasite

Chapter 652

Chapter 652: 652

"Mhmm very handsome!"

Zaarae let out a moan while licking her lips and gazing at Arthur . Midolf and Radolf heard her words and both instinctively shivered, finding her behavior quite disturbing and bone-chilling .

Arthur spared no time as he possessed the defenseless Carpentine . His body transformed into a black whirlpool which entered the victim’s body . The possession process only took a few seconds, in which Arthur gained the chief guard’s stats and abilities before swiftly leaving the host .

A flood of notifications covered his view but he discarded them for now and held Carpentine by his throat . He seemed to be contemplating what to do with the enemy, who gave up any kind of resistance and lifelessly let himself be held by the parasite .

The chief guard’s eyes were dim, blood leaked out of his half-opened lips, and the hole inflicted by Arthur while slowly killing him . Dark Magic made him powerless and the vibration of Natural Lightning ruptured his organs and shattered almost the entirety of his bones .

Arthur glanced at angered Habs then at Zaarae, wanting to see her opinion about this matter . The Empress shrugged her shoulders and casually said,

"His life was forfeit the moment he appeared here . "

Arthur smiled and exerted a bit of force, snapping Carpentine’s neck and ending his life on the spot . This brutal action made Habs enraged as he breathed heavily, his eyes glaring at Arthur like a starving beast .

No matter how angered he was, he could not break free from the blood cage put up by Zaarae .

"Arthur MoonStar, your actions will not be without consequences . "

Surprisingly, he spoke with a chilling and strangely calm tone as he sheathed his short sword and regulated his breathing .

...

"His name is Arthur MoonStar?"

The most shocked of all was Shen Shen, who, previously, thought she misheard but now Habs spoke Arthur’s name again, she was utterly dumbstruck . She was barely able to control herself as she turned to look at the silent Vyncent, who nodded his head .

With an inaudible voice which no one could hear, the blue-haired little girl mumbled,

"That... that means he’s my daddy?"

Her eyes focused on Arthur’s figure while her mind was in a tempestuous state . She heard many things about her parents, their feats, and their names, obviously . Timos praised her parents but didn’t tell her their appearances, which is why she didn’t recognize Arthur when they first met . But, undoubtedly, that man was her biological father .

He was very powerful like the Black Devil said, he was a parasite and was named Arthur MoonStar . All of these were enough for the young but intelligent Shen Shen to conclude his real identity . However, she didn’t cry happily or spill the truth and, instead, she maintained absolute silence while her gaze lingered on his silhouette .

. .

Arthur was delighted to gain a unique ability which will be very useful in the future . To actually be able to entrap enemies in that mysterious world, it automatically became one of his ultimate trump cards . If he’s surrounded, he can always isolate one of the stronger targets and defeat him so to make it easier to deal with the rest . It can also help him escape powerful foes by buying a bit of time for himself, and that is without including the countless special snakes living in there .

His stats only increased by several hundred million points but he gained an absolute immunity against all kinds of fatal points and has a new enigma ability . It was called Petrification and it allows him to turn targets in stone, like the infamous Medusa . At first, he was confused because Carpentine didn’t use it on him but that shouldn’t be right, the only explanation is the passive ability he gained from the White Tiger, which allowed him to negate debuffs . Moreover, his eye also had a chance to block petrification, illusions, and visual deception .

Arthur jumped back on the dark cloud and waited for Fariya, who just finished humiliating Erandil . She didn’t forget to cripple him, making him no different than a mortal... the poor angel was reduced to a pathetic and miserable state, even a homeless dog would look better than him .

The succubus was beaming with joy as she stood behind Arthur, a wide grin plastered on her beautiful face . She stored the recording crystal in her storage then looked at Habs, whose face was twisted from angel and rage .

"Bye bye!"

Zaarae waved her hand at Habs, flinging him and the cage all the way down . The warden won’t be able to chase after them anytime soon, not after he was injured by Zaarae, furthermore, he has to explain things to the higher-ups, who would also severely punish him for not properly managing the prison .

****

The dark cloud broke through the planet’s atmosphere and quietly traveled the starry space, bypassing blinding stars and weirdly-shaped uninhabited planets . Thanks to Zaarae, who cast an invisibility magic on the group, they were able to bypass the angel patrols scattered here and there .

The speed of the cloud was moderate and the Heaven and Hell Universe is vast, even with Arthur’s top speed, it’ll take some time to reach the Demon Realm . Moreover, their destination was far south of the Demon Realm, however, Fariya and Esco did say that that place isn’t as strictly guarded as the Heaven Realm . Only the border has a bit of demons but they won’t bother them, actually, they can’t even bother them as the soldiers are pitifully weak .

In the blink of an eye, three days of peace passed . Arthur would occasionally chat with Zaarae or Fariya, asking about things he was curious about . Esco was quite acknowledgeable, he also made an extra effort to seem useful as to not be abandoned in the middle of nowhere .

Vyncent kept silent, he sat cross-legged and would study the Elias’ coin . As for the mythical beings, they were like statues, immovable, and mute .

"Little Lady, come here . "

Arthur smiled and beckoned for Shen Shen, who was looking at the endless space around him with amazement . The sight grabbed the interest of the curious girl, who would ask the Parasite Empress about anything she’s unfamiliar with .

Unlike their first meeting, the girl became less talkative and rebellious, she would also sneak glances at Arthur, who noticed her but pretended not to .

Shen Shen patted her pretty green dress and walked to Arthur, her head hanging low . Now that she discovered he’s her father, she didn’t curse him or talk disrespectfully, but also didn’t disclose the truth .

Perhaps she was afraid he would abandon her after she acted rudely to him, or maybe he’ll refuse to believe her .

Shen Shen stopped in front of Arthur, who was sitting on the dark cloud . She held the tip of her dress and didn’t look back at him .

"Where are you from little lady?"

Zaarae smiled as she heard Arthur’s question while the succubus studied the girl .

"Blue-Water Kingdom . "

Shen Shen didn’t have an origin as she was born in the middle of nowhere but, thankfully, Timos did tell her about places with abundant Water energy, locations which can help her get much stronger . Blue-Water Kingdom is, obviously, a prosperous kingdom in the System’s universe . It’s situated in the local group, which is a group of galaxies that include the milky way galaxy, where the Earth is . More precisely, the kingdom is in a star called BTA-18947 .

The living conditions on that star are harsh and not many people can enter it due to the unstable climate . 90% of the star is covered in water and the kingdom is actually under the vast blue-ocean, inhabited by sea mermaids, water spirits, and the Sharhuman Race .
