Once Human, Now a Parasite Chapter 298

Chapter 298

Volume 6 : Rise of The Undead

Five years had gone by since Lucy and co landed on Earth .

A few miles above a desert island in the middle of Pacific Ocean, amidst the cl.u.s.tered clouds appeared a small whirlpool approximately the size of a bus .

Arthur, Astrith, Gutcha, Taliya, and Lolitta appeared from within the black whirlpool . The trip merely took a few minutes but even that amount is considered very long as it's supposed to be instantaneous .

This can only be explained by the distance separating Earth and Astria, albeit the fact that both of them are situated in the System's Universe, they were still farther from each other than one might expect .

Moreover, this Universe is much larger than the other two, although it's vastly composed of dark matter and nothingness, it's still immensely big, almost limitless .

As he took a long breath of Earth's fresh air, Arthur felt his stats increase as the Soul Bind took effect, which can only mean Lucy became much stronger than before as he felt that this sudden boost increased his overall prowess but not just a bit .

The link between the two of them will provide him of 80% of her stats while she gains 80% of his .

Arthur didn't bother looking at his status window and immediately stretched his sense to all corners of the Earth .

On Astria, he was almost able to sense everything on it after the five years had pa.s.sed, so on Earth, also being a planet worse than a low-Realm, it's to be expected to be able to do so .

Actually, any person who reached G.o.d Realm should be able to Sense everything on Earth, it wouldn't be as precise as his Arthur's Sixth Sense, nonetheless, it's feasible .

"Disperse, search for it . "

Arthur didn't waste time and immediately instructed Taliya and Astrith to find the hidden office . It would bring unwanted attention from the System if Lolitta were to be spotted by the AI residing on Earth, so it's better to mobilize its office and let Lolitta handle the rest .

Speaking of the little girl, she was about to fly away the second they appeared on Earth, unfortunately, Arthur grabbed her by the top of her head and pulled her closer, not letting her leave his side .

Thanks to the Soul Bind, Lucy definitely knows he arrived at last and as for why she didn't come flying immediately, it had a suitable explanation to it .

Arthur, who pinpointed her location and could 'see' what's going on, smirked and used s.p.a.ce Magic to teleport away .

Gutcha needn't be told what to do, with an enthusiastic laugh, he bowed and disappeared right after, leaving only a black whirlpool that decreased in size until it vanished .

. . . . .

It's been a bit more than five years since the world changed . With the appearance of the system and the dungeons, the environment changed but so did the Humans living in it .

Fortunately, they managed to adapt quite fast and organizations were created along with many new inventions that relied on Magic and Science .

Top countries were still fighting a cold war but beginning a full-scale war isn't possible, there will be many powerful forces which will intervene and finish it before it even starts .

Currently, in a large plaza situated at the central area of Seoul, in South Korea, there was a huge crowd of people, mostly journalists, though .

Standing on a large stage in front of the crowd was a voluptuous woman with a microphone on her hand, patiently replying to the questions asked by a few chosen journalists .

Some distance behind the talking woman were a few individuals that were seating and calmly listening without showing any reactions, they didn't even appear interested in being here .

There were exactly three individuals, one was a golden-haired young man with a handsome face and an elegant demeanor . The second was a short girl resembling a Loli, however, she had large b.r.e.a.s.t.s, unfitting for her figure .

Last but not least was a woman wearing simple dark clothes and wearing a white mask with nothing but two holes to see through, she had long silver hair .

This woman was, obviously, Lucy, who just received a sudden jolt in her mind which made her blank for a few seconds .

The first thing she sensed was a sweet feeling that enveloped her body, it was none other than the soul bind's effect, which made her stats skyrocket the moment Arthur appeared on Earth .

Lucy wasn't an idiot, she realized that the time had finally come, she spread her sense in all directions and in just a split second, she locked it to him .

Since it was a conference and to not ruin the 'play' she began five years ago, she was forced to wait for a few more minutes, nonetheless, her mind was only thinking about Arthur .

Amidst the crowd, there appeared a man which wore a black robe that covered him from head to toe .

Lucy's eyes were glued to that man, not leaving him, all the surrounding noise seemed to quieten, only focusing on that man, who wouldn't be noticed in normal cases as he was sandwiched inside the large and loud crowd .

A minute after another, with two pairs of eyes staring at each other until Lucy, who couldn't wait anymore once the man turned around and walked away, heading inside an isolated and narrow alley .

Her sudden actions alerted Usui and Claudia but once she waved her hands to indicate that there's nothing, Claudia nodded and continued her conference but the golden-haired young man didn't let go of that matter .

He proceeded to follow Lucy but the second he descended the stairs and went backstage, he couldn't find her despite the fact that she was in his sight a second ago .

. . . . .

Approximately a hundred meters away from the area of the conference, in that dark alley . Arthur took off the hood covering his head and showed a brilliant smile as he faced Lucy, who already removed her mask and gazed at him with a strange look .

For the two of them, no words were needed as a reunion of eternal lovers can only be expressed by actions, only actions .

Faster than ever before, Lucy delved into his warm embrace, hugging him tightly, afraid that he'll disappear again .

The usually expressionless woman, full of indifference and coldness, was now sobbing loudly as she enjoyed the warmth of his arms .

I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where . I love you simply, without problems or pride; I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this, in which there is no I or you, so intimate that your hand upon my chest is my hand, so intimate that when I fall asleep your eyes close .
