Once Human, Now A Parasite Chapter 217
Advertisement
The topic of their talking soon shifted from Rose to her newly acquired armor. Many speculated that the armor was Heavenly ranked, from the appearance to the aura around it, there was no doubt that it's not any ordinary armor.
Rose didn't hesitate in wearing it, such armors automatically match the size of their host, so it only took a few seconds for it to be worn by Rose, who replaced her green armor by this new one.
With the translucent white armor and its aura, coupled with Rose beauty, which was not kingdom toppling but she couldn't be called ugly or average either, Rose became prettier and pleasant to the eyes, perhaps it was a special effect of the armor or it's just that the armor and her power complimented each other and created such atmosphere around her.
The gargoyle female didn't stay in the room anylonger, she left the room with Ehrendil protecting her back. They wanted to gain priceless treasures but this armor was enough for them and it would boost their confidence and may lead them to emerge victorious against the Pigolo.
Her spot was quickly replaced by their archenemies, the pigolo, which couldn't secure a spot until now. Even in such a place, the gargoyles were aggressive against them since the start of the war, so they couldn't send any of their juniors to a spot without fearing the craziness of their enemy.
Emily sneaked behind the Gods protecting Kithel and stood behind her. Some people noticed that her spot was now free but none was brave enough to go ahead and seize it.
As for Arthur, he was still sitting in meditation near the golem, however, for some reason, he started feeling kind of uneasy. It was a feeling similar to the one he felt after taking down 'Medusa'. It was an instinctive feeling of danger he obtained through the countless possessions he did, it wasn't always right, but when it is, then a great danger is coming either for him or the people around him.
Despite this, he calmed down with the help of the ethereal state and brushed away the distracting thoughts. He just needed to get out of the tomb, whatever happens later will be dealt at that time, he should take things step by step and worry about the present instead of the future.

A bit of time passed since the enlightenment of Rose yet nothing similar occurred which caused the hyped crowd to calm down and return to waiting for their turn or just lay down and watch who will get what.
Arthur returned to normal when the uneasy feeling was gone, he was at his peak with his Health, Mana, and Nether Energy back to full, moreover, he had his new mastery of Spatial Attribute and Space Bender title.
The silence was broken at last when a weird sound similar to a waterfall resounded in all the room, this shocked the crowd and caused a lot of surprised gasps to come out, amongst them were the old Gods, which looked at Kithel with awe.
The sound of the waterfall became much clearer after a few seconds and an illusory mountain materialized above Kithel, it was not the size of a real mountain but it looked pretty realistic with the enormous waterfall. The waterfall's length was from the peak of the mountain till its bottom, its sound could be heard and its water fell directly on Kithel.
Soon, the middle statue's eyes opened and stared at Kithel, just like Rose's case.
"It's a materialization enlightenment! indeed, a dragon father cannot have a dog son!"
The old man accompanying Elo Huo nodded as he stared at Kithel and the mountain, he wasn't jealous of the boy but envious that the Kang Family have such a genius. Compared to Kithel, Elo Huo seemed to be struggling and from the looks of it, he won't be able to gain a special enlightenment such as Amidel's son.
A large pillar of blue light covered Kithel, it rose all the way to the roof and caused all the seated youngsters to wake up from the meditation. The pillar of light the thinned until only a portion of Kithel was touched by it, in response to this, the young man didn't move, with his eyes still closed and a meditating position, he waited for the statue to act.
The middle status didn't shot rays of light like earlier, instead, it took out its sword and throw it at Kithel. The sword, which was made of stone, transformed into a blue beam of light which stopped inches away from Kithel, it slowly became smaller until it becomes a 1.3-meter long sword with a white handle and blue snake coiling around it. The tip of the sword had droplets of water dripping from it and the coiling snake had its eyes opened, directly staring at Kithel as if testing his willpower to resist it.

With eyes full of determination, Kithel stared back at the snake whilst stretching his hand to the handle, which was unresponsive at first but after he exerted more force, it finally obeyed and let him grab it. The snake seemed to have accepted him as it closed its eyes and laid dormant until the moment Kithel uses the sword.
Kithel caressed the sword with a loving look and showed a brilliant smile, indicating his happiness. He bowed deeply to the three statues then left his spot.
When the sword showed itself, Arthur's storage started vibrating intensely to the point of almost coming out of his hand, this caused Arthur to press his index finger on it and said
'Calm down, Makaze, this is not the time.'
From the looks of it, Makaze couldn't hold back its hunger and wanted to devour that sword immediately. It's the first time Arthur has seen a strong reaction from Makaze, which is a good and a bad thing, the timing was awfully bad and he can't go out of his way to get that sword lest it causes chaos.
It was at this exact moment when everybody was drooling over the sword and admiring the talented youth, that Jian Si finally showed herself. She glanced at Arthur but didn't talk, she chose the spot Emily was previously at and sat, immediately entering meditation. She just wanted to try her luck and wasn't interested in the physique manual or whatsoever, furthermore, nobody dared to stop her or provoke her for she is known to be vengeful and hard to deal with, especially if she comes after you, it will be a never-ending chase until she ends your life.
Arthur was calmly watching like the rest when all of a sudden, the young man, Kithel, turned toward him and showed a charming smile and flashing eyes then said
"Miss, I've seen that you have been waiting for a long time, why don't you take my spot?"
Arthur was momentarily startled but he didn't show it on his face, based on what he had done, there is no way that Kithel knows his real identity, even if he had miraculous treasures, he can't know it's him, that's one thing Arthur was sure of, but if it's not that then why would he address him of all people?
Moreover, his actions caused almost all the crowd to focus on him, which is not something he wanted right now. It's too late
"I will graciously reject Young Master Kithel's offer, I did not come here for enlightenment and I'm only here to watch."
Kithel didn't insist, he nodded his head back understandingly and added:
"If that is your case, then please suit yourself and if you feel like trying your luck, then please, take this spot."
Kithel pointed at his spot, this infuriated the envious crowd, which were happy that both the Kangs are done so they could seize the remaining spot as the other was taken by Jian Si.
After saying that, Kithel went next to Arthur and politely asked
"Mind if I sit here?"
Arthur didn't reject so he just nodded his head and proceeded to ignore the smiling youth, whose eyes were glued on him. He, more or less, understood what the actual situation is, and it seemed a bit favorable to him; if he could play his cards right.
Never did he think that he would be liked by another man, and a kid at that, this was the only plausible explanation he could come up as there is no other reason. Moreover, it's not like the woman he was possessing had incredible beauty, she just had that nature mature charm, the ethereal state must've added to her womanly charms, nonetheless, it's not something that may cause him troubles despite the attention of the crowd which was focused on him and Kithel.
He could also feel that Emily was eyeing him curiously but unlike Kithel, her eyes contained a hint of wariness.
