《Once Human, Now a Parasite》Chapter 103 : Deceived
Advertisement
The soft sword of Miya had a tinge of darkness as it slashed toward Lissandra's neck. Its sheer speed was something that made the target baffled as she subconsciously lifted her dark book to block it.
This time, not a hand or two came from the book but a horrifying and ugly head, it had black skin and no teeth, its appearance literally couldn't be creepier or uglier.
The head opened its mouth as it wanted to swallow the sword whole but it couldn't as the weapon was too strong.
The strike was successfully blocked, once Lissandra was going to breathe a sigh of relief another dark and long sword was stabbed at her right shoulder.
This time, not even her protective layer could withstand it, blood gushed out from the injury and the sword didn't meet any resistance.
As the fights between the two powerful figures are about to begin. Kilan, Aborak and Bai LIngyue are still calmly watching what is happening. No one commented or lifted a finger.
As for Meyzu, he appeared in front of 'Arthur' to replace Jizung, however, he was not as kind as Jizung as he stretched his hand to cripple him to get rid of any future unnecessary trouble that would perhaps come from him.
The person who did this was surprisingly Miya, who is the genius disciple of the Lightning Fox. She wielded two swords, one was her sword and the seconds was... Makaze!
Granny Shishu didn't notice the sneaky movements of her disciple, only when Miya attacked Lissandra did she notice the disappearance of Miya from the specific area of her clan.
Her normally sharp and piercing eyes were wide open as she stared at Miya, Granny Shishu was astonished by this, even Lissandra didn't understand what is happening.
Miya could not be a traitor or an enemy of hers but she nonetheless attacked her, which made her confused. She hesitated as she was not brave enough to attack her, if she killed Miya, her clan would not stand still, especially the clan master.
"What are you doing?"
Lissandra's panicked and confused voice was totally ignored by Miya, who had an expressionless face. She gazed at Lissandra and twisted Makaze to inflict even more damage to her enemy.
Arthur already used Natural Lightning and managed to slip some of it in the wound created by Makaze. He possessed Miya since the time she fought Yun.
Going back to his fight again Yun, he managed to successfully posses Yun as he killed him instantly by the Natural Lightning. It was hidden in his last strike with the Thunder explosion and it burst the young master's heart.

He remained hidden and acted as if he was Yun to not attract any attention. Contrary to what he did to Yun, he didn't kill Miya but simply possessed her.
It is impossible to possess her in a normal case, but he, fortunately, got a new skill when he broke through and that's what allowed him to possess her.
Possess, possess and possess (U) : As long as the target is within 2 meters of the user, the user can possess him for a certain amount of time.
Cost: -1 million to all stats (The stronger the enemy the higher the cost) (Cannot possess God Realm and above)
Cooldown : None
With this cheat skill, he possessed Miya and stayed dormant inside of her for some time, only when the clash of Lucy and Lissandra began did he fully take control of Miya's body.
He could feel her resisting his possession but she seemed to be locked in some kind of cage in her consciousness. Even she, didn't know what the hell is going on but she kept attacking the cage. Too bad it was futile and it only exhausted her Mental Power even more.
Natural Lightning invaded Lissandra's body and with Arthur controlling it, it began breaking her Meridians and attacking her Dantian, attempting to destroy it completely.
Due to her being two Realms above him, his Natural Lightning couldn't even damage the Meridians, much less the Dantian so they moved to the bones and tried inflicting any damage to them but it was still useless. He was still too weak to damage her internally.
Arthur let go of the soft sword of Miya which was being blocked by the creepy head. What replaced her sword was a short dagger that was purple in color and devoured the air around it.
It was made from the Void Magic, however, this was only the beginning. At the same time that the dagger appeared, black chains conjured from Dark Magic appeared around Arthur's waist and wrapped around Lissandra's waist in a split second.
Coupled with [Dark Burst], Arthur struck his dagger to the creepy head and used Makaze which was in his left hand to stab further into Lissandra's new wound.
Lissandra didn't stay still when he did that, but due to her being used in attacking with Dark Magic, she instinctively used it and a black demon head opened its mouth to eat Arthur.
The result was not something she expected, the dark demon head didn't even scratch Arthur, it actually seemed to strengthen him as the chains which were wrapped around her waist tightened and became bigger and longer.
"I-it's you!!!"
She could feel the power behind the chains so she immediately recognized it but what stunned her is that she could not resist it. She was a person at the God Realm, it should not be possible to restrict her movements this easily, even for Arthur, but what she didn't know is that because she's a Dark Magic user and because Arthur is considered the original source of Dark Magic, she's like a part of him, or more like, a toy.

He forcefully used the strong connection that the Dark Magic had with her to weaken her and make her vulnerable to him. The only reason he was struggling to capture her is that despite her being weakened, her body wasn't. She was in the God Realm, after all, her physical body is extremely strong.
The Void dagger cut through the creepy head as if it was butter, it's as if the head didn't exist, it was engulfed by the humongous absorption force coming out of the purple dagger. Makaze slashed at the other shoulder of Lissandra, but due to her being expecting this slash, the dark blade only managed to cut some flesh off her.
"Do you think you can hurt me? See how I'll skin alive that girl of yours!"
Lissandra's look changed as she yelled at Miya. She didn't know how he did it, but she knew it was him as no one but him could use Dark Magic. He was the only one besides her subordinates who could use such powerful Dark Magic.
Her current guess was that he was controlling her from a distance, her eyes shifted to 'Arthur', who was standing in front of Jizung.
Lucy, who took down the elders with the help of the meteorites, flew toward Lissandra as her blood red eyes were staring intensely at Lissandra.
Her two Ice lotuses were formed again and circled around her, snowflakes appeared out of thin air and her strongest attacked was launched at Lissandra.
It was not an offensive or a defensive attack but a restricting one. It imprisoned the target in an Ice domain that deal continuous damage and froze them the longer they stayed in it.
The elders she took down were obviously not dead but they were seriously injured. Such meteorites took her quite a bit of time to prepare and maintain unlike the normal ones, their damage was immense and was enough to get rid of them for some time.
With the Ice domain of Lucy and the black chains around her waist, linking her to Arthur. Lissandra was not in a favorable position. Although she was attacked by their combined attacks, that didn't mean it's the end for her.
The black book shined with black light and a creature similar to scepter but way darker and visible appeared out of one of the book's pages.
The creature screeched and bit down on Miya's shoulder. Its mouth was not large but once it bit down on the girl's shoulder, it took a big chunk of flesh and gore with it. Arthur felt the agonizing pain as this bite was not ordinary, he felt drained of his Nether Energy and weakened.
You received the debuff 'Death Specter Drain': -70% Nether Energy Recover / -50% Nether Energy (2 Minutes) -15% Health
"Miya!!"
Granny Shishu couldn't stay still after she saw that, no matter what Miya was doing, she couldn't let her receive heavy injuries and just watch from the sidelines.
The Granny transformed into Purple lightning Fox and with a speed uncomparable to Arthur or Lucy, she flew toward Miya but someone appeared in front of her and blocked her from proceeding further.
It was Jizung, for some reason he stopped Granny Shishu from helping Miya.
"Granny! What do you think you're doing?"
"What do I look like I'm doing? I'm going to help Miya!"
Granny Shishu had no time to argue with an old geezer like Jizung. She waved her hands dismissively and bypassed him. But what she didn't expect is that a dark cobra the size of a hand leaped at her and hissed dangerously.
Fortunately, she was not someone who is inexperienced, before the cobra could get close to her, it was vaporized by her purple Lightning.
"Old Ji! You dare attack me?"
This time, Granny Shishu's aura turned ferocious as she looked angrily at the old man.
Responding to her, Jizung chuckled and shrugged his shoulder whilst saying
"The disciple Miya has committed crimes and should be properly punished. Perhaps she is from allying with an alien race or one of our enemies."
It was obvious that Jizung didn't think like that, but he just said that to stop Granny from interfering. Miya was attacking one of the elders of his clan, that in itself is too disgraceful. If she is saved by Granny and nothing is done to her, it would be like slapping his clan in the face and getting away with it.
"If you don't get out of my way right now, you'll regret it, old Ji!!!"
Granny didn't listen to what he said as she neither cared nor wanted to care. Miya was her granddaughter and she wasn't going to let her be hurt because Jizung wants to keep his stupid pride.

Thief of Time
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Book 1: The Legend of Tot Synopsis: Claud Primus, a self-declared master thief, has a simple goal. To live forever. It's a rather easy task, for miraculous objects called lifestones are able to extend one's lifespan. These lifestones are best found in the treasuries of nobles, lovely resorts that Claud pays a visit to every so often. Unfortunately, one of those nightly visits go awry, and Claud is forced to escape with just a single lifestone and a box in hand. Normally, that's when things die down. The guards yawn, the gates close, and the night continues. But this time, the night isn't that forgiving. A dozen schemes result in the murder of someone important, and with a convenient scapegoat — Claud — at hand, it doesn't take long for him to be framed as a heinous criminal, wanted for the indirect murder of someone high up...and it just gets worse from there. Book 2: The Moon Lords' Rise Synopsis: As ordered chaos sweeps across Licencia, Claud leaves for Julan Barony, intent on making some profits there. Accompanied by the erstwhile heiress of Julan, a fellow member of the Moon Lords, the two plot against the barony's wealth...as well as a promise to bring about its downfall. Meanwhile, back home, the Moon Lords have busied themselves with digesting their gains. Eyes, however, are beginning to turn to this proverbial fish in a small pond. The fishermen are coming. When they cast their hook, what will Dia and the others do? Book 3: Murders under the Moons Synopsis: In the sleepy town of Nachtville, where Claud and Lily are forced to stop at, a set of nasty murders occurs. Victims scream out in fright, before a spear falls from the sky to end their suffering. Cowed and cautious, the master thief and his partner slink in the shadows, their objective that of home... A new task, however, has fallen on Dia. With a trusty helper at her side, she has to set off towards Nachtville itself, to solve the mystery Claud had abandoned. Faced with an enemy whose sole skillset is geared towards killing, how will they succeed? And what dark secrets will they find? Book 4: In the Dark of the Moons Synopsis: The year has ended. The four months of the full moons will soon be followed by two months of the new moons. Duke Istrel's ascension is around the corner. Amidst this political upheaval, Count Nightfall, Licencia's strongest defender, has been called away. The Moon Lords' largest task yet — to protect Licencia in the absence of its ruler — has begun. And yet, trouble is unrelenting. A distinguished personage, one that Claud fears, has been found dead in the county, his brains dug out and his body disemboweled. The inquisitors of the White Church have been dispatched to investigate and apprehend the murderer...as well as the person behind this puppet. Tormented by a call to fight, Claud directs his eyes out of the city, looking for the puppetmaster. Skulking in the shadows, the master thief will soon confront his greatest foe yet. A foe just like him. Book 5: Moonlit Tides and Darkened Seas Synopsis: A new era has begun. For the privileged, the sands of time dribble away for every passing moment, counting down to the arrival of a entity of mythical proportions. The night now harbours shadows and fog, and operatives of the Moons and the Dark clash in shadow. Claud, as usual, is investigating a spate of nasty disappearances in the city, but little does he know what these disappearances truly mean. And yet, a tide is coming. When it finally breaks, what will he do? Book 6: Secrets in Shadow Synopsis: The person behind a strike that would enter the annals of history flees his home, bringing with him the person closest to his heart into a new land and into a new world. Having left Istrel for the first time in his life, the two of them attempt to settle down in foreign lands, only to be caught in the middle of hostilities between two mighty powers grappling for dominion. Yet, none of that has anything to do with him. Following his desires, Claud eventually makes his way to the fabled Celestia Ruins, a fragment of another world. Bearing witness to truths he cannot yet comprehend, he returns from his exploration, a small break away from the machinations of destiny. One thing, however, is for certain. Destiny will not wait for him. Book 7: Reddest Rage Synopsis: Destiny churns on, heedless of mortal machinations, and Claud watches as the battlegrounds between the Moons and the Dark are drawn up. With the forces of the great Dark occupying Lostfon, Claud comes to a startling realisation — that he may have very well be a murderer of heinous proportions. Grappling with that realisation, he struggles to prepare for his Second Tutorial... Back in Istrel, Dia finds herself confronted with a perennial truth. Even in a time of writhing destiny, the machinations between nobles never cease to end — and unfortunately for her, the group once known as the Moon Lords are forced into dealing with a petty squabble between two counts. What they didn't account for, however, was the startling discovery they would soon make... And the shadow of the Red God's Holy Son behind it all. Book 8: Darkness Descends Synopsis: Nightmares haunt the horizon as Claud sinks and awakens from a seeming dream. What was once illusory begins to play out before him, in a way he cannot imagine. Dia, forced to wield arms, begins and ends a battle that opens her eyes to the vast dangers that lurk in this sundered world. Under the banner of humanity and divinity, she beholds the silent, forgotten protectors of Orb...but there is no forgetting the battle between the divinities. The Dark descends, the Moons writhe, and the horns of war blow once more. But this is not their battle. Not yet. Book 9: Moons Muster Synopsis: As more and more events fall into place, Claud finds himself desperate. Not for himself, but for the person who has turned into his world. Armed with the knowledge of a certain future, he approaches the only person that could possibly help him in his time of need, trading information for a promise of help. With that as solace, he returns to the grim task of understanding and seeking, revisiting an ancient, shattered fragment of another world...unleashing changes that he never knew was possible. Back in Istrel, Dia and the others must now navigate around a familiar spirit, who seeks to investigate the death of his master's Bearer. With them as prime suspects, the Seekers of Life must move carefully...but the Coloured Gods are not the only divinities eyeing them closely. The Moons, bristling from repeated defeats, are looking for new recruits, and the Seekers of Life are prime cannon fodder. Above all, destiny marches on, the unfeeling clock a warning to all. The Trial of Aeons will soon arrive. Book 10: Destiny Divine Synopsis: ??? Release frequency: one every few days or something, I guess.

The Supernormal
In a world where fantasy has become everyday, one man stands against absurdity. The local Tower stomps through the streets. Any hedge could contain a witch. Walls regularly crumble, though none more often than the fourth. In the magical city of Blackpool, all ridiculousness is possible, and it takes everything for Jack Of All Trades to survive. Badly, at that. Perpetually late with his rent, he'll take up arms for any paying customer in order to fulfill his quest. His obstacles include polka-loving ghosts, card-game playing vampires, and the most vicious monsters of all: copyright lawyers. When he's joined by an arrogant magus and an insecure vampire, his life gets even more complicated, but no matter what kind of infuriating choose-your-own-adventure he finds himself on, one constant remains—his rent is due at the end of the month. On second thoughts, maybe he should stay in bed. The Supernormal isn't your average web-novel. It's an urban fantasy parody that saunters through a world full of the absurd, delighting in poking fun at popular media, widely-accepted ideas, and often itself. Story arcs only loosely connect through the characters, who are themselves slowly fleshed out as the story continues. Think of Discworld meets The Dresden Files meets Gintama. This novel won't be for everyone, but if it is for you, you're in for a hell of a ride.
