Chapter 332: Change 2
Suddenly, he heard the quiet creeping sound of insects crawling.
He lowered his head to look, and noticed that his entire bed was filled with a large number of these insects crawling everywhere. There were so many of them tightly packed together that it was impossible to count.
Some of the insects were climbing up his arms, some were crawling on his thighs, while others were attempting to crawl up his chest and head.
The large clusters of insects looked like a pool of black mucus that covered the entire bed. A rotting smell that compelled people to vomit also permeated in the air.
”Damn it!!” Garen’s totem light flashed across his whole body as all the insects were shaken off. He felt a tingling sensation on his scalp, and got up frantically.
Immediately, the insects on his seat slid downwards like flowing water, and scuttled into the bottom of the carriage, disappearing quickly.
Garen picked his cup up to drink some water, but suddenly remembered the little insect that had crawled out of there.
He looked inside the cup and saw a fat white maggot soaking inside the water. The maggot’s body was covered in layers of folds and was curled at the bottom of the cup. It was as thick as two fingers and was still turning around and wriggling.
Many white insect eggs were floating on the surface of the water as well.
Bang!
Garen threw the cup on the carriage floor. A wave of unprecedented anger burst out of him.
”Reylan!!!”
He pointed a finger angrily at Reylan who was still asleep.
What’s wrong, Brother?” Reylan turned over and looked at Garen calmly.
Both of them met each other’s eyes, but neither of them was willing to give in to the other.
Some time passed before Garen calmed his emotions.
”Are you using your methods to threaten me?” Garen felt that this was the first time he truly understood this girl from the Obscuro Society that he picked up.
”What methods? I don’t know what you’re talking about, Brother,” said Reylan with a strange expression on her face.
Garen began to feel slightly suspicious that Lala’s illness may have been caused by Reylan. After witnessing the scene with these strange insects tonight, he had now started to suspect this possibility even more.
”What are you trying to do?!”
Reylan’s mouth stretched into an ugly smile.
”Brother, you like beautiful women, don’t you? Unfortunately, my face has disappointed you greatly. Isn’t that right?”
Her smile disappeared, and she seemed to be reminiscing something.
”Frankly… I knew earlier on that you weren’t my real brother.”
Garen’s heart stopped for a moment and he paused his speech, as he waited for her next words.
”I just wanted to continue to bask in the feeling of being cared for by someone else, Brother,” Reylan’s eyes grew wider, and her red eyes grew more bloodshot. ”Of course, it would have been better if that little servant who was prettier than me actually died. That’s what I thought, so I decided to induce her slightly,” she said. ”You know as well, that some illnesses only require certain specialized environments, and that’s all that is needed to induce them.”
”So it was you,” Garen said calmly.
”Hehe…” Reylan laughed, and stood up suddenly. ”Oh Brother looks like we have no choice but to be separated now. However, all this will only be temporary.”
As she smiled, her face began to melt suddenly, as if it was a candle, and the wax-like liquid dripped downwards and turned into countless little black winged insects.
Immediately, Reylan’s entire body turned into a cluster of black winged insects that flew out of the carriage noisily, and buzzed towards the faraway sky.
The winged insects formed into a black human figure in the sky and waved at Garen from a distance.
A sullen expression appeared on Garen’s face as he watched Reylan leave instantly. He had no intention of making any moves right now, as both he and Reylan were individuals that the Obscuro Society wanted to get rid of, and there was no need for him to have any conflict with her now.
This incident with Lala had severed the mutual affection between them completely.
As for how Reylan felt, he had no idea about that, and did not plan on finding out.
”It’s good that she left,” Garen huffed coldly as he scattered the Platinum Aura around his body everywhere, using it to check the condition of the three carriages. Once there were no more little insects, he returned it to himself slowly.
”Just like Jess. Nothing but another extreme madman.”
There was not a sliver of regret in Garen’s heart.
Even though Reylan could have aided him greatly, a person like herself, who would hurt anyone by his side at any moment for the sake of lust, was definitely unstable. At a time like this where he was unable to grasp the situation, distancing himself was the best option.
”What happened?” Angel and the others got down from the carriage after they were woken up. They put on their coats as they stood beside the carriage window.
”Nothing. Reylan left. She fought with me,” Garen forced a smile and said softly.
Angel’s expression had clearly relaxed as well.
”She left? I’ve always thought that there was something abnormal about your sister. It’s good that she left.”
”You’re being honest for once,” Garen smiled bitterly.
