Chapter 2202 - Help1 (1/2)

Junior sat in silence looking off and into the distance.

One would think that in such a situation, he would be observing some serene atmosphere. Maybe watching some dark ocean waves or the twinkling night sky… But this wasn't the case at all. In fact, Junior was watching quite the bloody scene.

Several Embryonic Infernal Beasts savagely fought each other, ripping out the throats of their opponents with sharp, flesh filled teeth.

Blood and carnage filled the dark space, a dark red fog filled with shining stars in the distance as their backdrop.

Still, even with all of these savage beasts around, and even with Junior not lifting a finger to hide his presence, none of the beasts dared to approach him. In fact, they shivered in fear just at the sight of him.

If others saw this scene, confusion would color their features.

Normal beasts had instincts that made them avoid stronger opponents, this was part of the nature that separated those of the human and beast path. However, this instinct was greatly dulled in Embryonic Infernal Beasts who had extremely low intelligence.

If this wasn't enough to confuse you, there was something even more odd about this atmosphere. These Embryonic Infernal Beasts, currently in the process of fighting to the death with one another, were actually all several times more powerful than Junior! In fact, if even a single one of them, even in their greatly injured states, turned to face Junior, a single breath would be enough to eradicate his body.

However, even with all of these things being true, the beasts didn't dare to approach Junior…

Suddenly, Junior's expressionless features brightened.

”Wife! You've come.” He beamed brightly, turning his head to watch Lilith's nervous but gorgeous figure slowly float down toward him.

”Wife?”

Hearing these words, Lilith, who had been shaking slightly looking toward the beasts in the distance, suddenly had her emotions overcome with a wave of anger.

”This is what you call the union of husband and wife? All that bloviating about how much you wanted me, and you turn out to be a eunuch?”

Even Lilith couldn't figure out why she was angry. She had agreed to this marriage in a moment of vulnerability… Not that she felt she had much of a choice to begin with… But, at the very least, she could have stalled like she had with Sokzac in the past, dragging things out. However, she hadn't this time, likely in some attempt to get that man back.

What a joke that was. In the end, wasn't it that man's idea to marry her to his son anyway? How exactly was she getting him back by doing the very thing he proposed in the first place? She really couldn't understand her own actions…

So, she lashed out. Whenever she saw Junior, she dumped all of her emotions onto him.
