Sophie suddenly seemed to realize something. She narrowed her eyes at Eliza, her smile turning cold and sinister. "So that's it. I underestimated you. Just for a lowly Marquis's estate, you were willing to spend a fortune to hire a sorcerer just to deal

with me."

She added, “But if you think that's enough to defeat me, then you're being far too naive."

Sophie lifted her chin arrogantly, her tone dripping with contempt. But in Eliza's eyes, it was just ridiculous.

Her relationship with Marquis's estate wasn't nearly close enough to justify spending a fortune on hiring a sorcerer to save them.

After all, she herself was more than enough.

Sophie didn't know this, but Adeline, who had witnessed Eliza secretly extract a parasite egg without Sophie noticing, certainly did. That was why a strange, inexplicable expression flickered across her face.

As for Dale, he had been deep in thought ever since. His sharp eyes kept glancing between his wife and Eliza, as though he was piecing something together.

Eliza said, "Enough. I'm done wasting time with an idiot."

They had delayed this long only to buy time for Vexara to rescue Caleb. And now, Caleb was no longer in danger of dying.

"Vexara, finish this quickly."

As soon as Eliza spoke, a breathtaking butterfly with golden wings and crimson patterns descended from the sky, fluttering its wings as golden powder filled the air, gently floating into everyone's line of sight.

If not for the fact that the butterfly was holding a King Parasite in its mouth, this scene would have been truly beautiful.

But the moment Sophie saw this, her mind froze, and then it exploded with panic. "No! Stop it!"

A wave of dread crashed over her. A powerful sense of danger made her feel as if the butterfly was about to eat her chameleon.

But butterflies wouldn't eat a chameleon. They would kill them, using their toxic powder.

Sophie suddenly let out a blood-curdling scream, clutching her head in agony.

The powder falling on the King Parasite had already corroded its flesh, melting it into blood in mere seconds.

The chameleon struggled violently, dropping from Vexara's mouth. Once it hit the ground, it began madly tearing at its own body.noveldrama

It bit off its own limbs, even its tail, savagely mutilating itself. Eventually, it bit off half its body.

The poison had reached its mouth too, and soon its tongue and teeth rotted away and fell off.

In the end, the once-mighty King Parasite was reduced to a heap of mangled flesh.

That chameleon was Sophie's lifebound parasite.

Because she had forged a blood pact with it long ago, the moment it was hit by the toxic powder, Sophie suffered the backlash instantly.

Especially when the chameleon, driven mad by the pain, bit itself to death. Her face turned pale, and she spat out a

mouthful of blood with a loud splurt.

"No... no... my... my King Parasite..." Sophie choked out.

She thought it was impossible. It was her King Parasite, the only chameleon

parasite among them all. One of the five great King Parasites.

Yet, it was killed by a butterfly.

Blood continued to spill from Sophie's lips as she stared in shock at the now-dead chameleon on the floor, unable to accept

1. it.

Adeline and Dale stood equally stunned.

Adeline clutched her child tightly and backed away with Dale cautiously.

They could hardly believe their eyes.

They kept glancing at the beautiful golden butterfly that had returned to Eliza's hand.

That tiny, harmless-looking butterfly had somehow, without anyone noticing, captured the King Parasite that had tormented their household for over a month, and poisoned it into madness right in front of Sophie.

The chameleon had simply gone mad from poison and devoured itself.

But what they didn't know was that the butterfly, Vexara, carried far more than just one type of toxin.

Its master had imbued it with more than a dozen powerful poisons. It could precisely manipulate each kind to deal with various enemies.

Even its natural predators couldn't escape the effects of its powder. Just like this chameleon.

All it took was a trace of hallucinogenic poison and a little corrosion poison. It was enough to make the creature die a slow, agonizing death by its own mouth.

Now that the little wretch's King Parasite was dead, things should be over. So thought Adeline, who had no idea how many more parasites Sophie actually had. She cast a careful glance at Sophie, who was unusually quiet by the bedside. Suddenly, something felt wrong.

Sophie snapped, "You killed my King Parasite! My life-bound parasite! You're going to pay with your life! I want you all... to die!"

Sophie abruptly lifted her head, face twisted in hatred as she screamed at Eliza and the others. "Come out, all of you. Kill them!"

With Sophie's forceful command, even without the King Parasite, all the parasites still under her control instantly launched their attack.

A chorus of hissing and clicking sounds filled the room as they swarmed in.

Before Adeline and the others could even react, a massive swarm of parasites surged into the room like a tide of darkness.

Adeline and Dale turned pale with horror.

They hadn't expected there to still be so many parasites in the house even after the King Parasite was dead.

At Sophie's command, the swarm of parasites surged forward, charging straight at

them.

"Run! Head for the door!"

"We can't! There are too many! We won't make it!"

Dale quickly assessed the situation and immediately refuted Adeline's plan. He

then turned to Eliza, who remained calm amid the chaos.

"Your Grace!"
