“Come to me this instance!”
However, the Progenitor was stubborn, “No. I want to look for the Dragon Bloodline first!”
At that, Zeke whipped the Progenitor with his mental energy.
Promptly, the Progenitor said, “Nothing you say will change my mind. Nonetheless, what's most important right now is your matter, so I'll come to you right away.”
Good!
After waiting patiently for around ten minutes, the Progenitor finally flew in through the window.
The Progenitor had short arms and was plump and translucent. At the same time, it had a pair of transparent wings and cute eyes. In other words, it looked adorable.
Upon seeing the White Muraco Clan's Progenitor, not only did Dawn not feel scared, but she even began looking at it with a doting look. Subconsciously, she reached out to touch the White Muraco Clan's Progenitor.
“Wow, this is so cute. I'd like to hug it!”
The Progenitor went along with her and jumped into Dawn's arms before rubbing its head merrily.
Dawn began giggling. “It's cute. It's not afraid of strangers at all.”
Lacey and Nancy were not afraid of the Progenitor as well. Perhaps it was because the Progenitor looked far too cute.
The two women then reached out, hoping to touch the White Muraco Clan's Progenitor. However, the White Muraco Clan's Progenitor instantly struggled and flung itself off the two women's hands.
It even nearly bit Nancy's hand.
Both of them were stunned.
The Progenitor then began communicating with Zeke. “Get these two foolish women away from me! Don't let them touch me. Hmph! How can peasants like them touch my sacred body?”
Immediately, Zeke's expression darkened. How dare it insult my wife and my sister-in-law? I'll let you know what the consequences of not having a filter for your mouth are!
In the next second, Zeke gave the Progenitor a mental whip. It then began thrashing and begging, “Okay, okay, stop hitting me! I'll let them touch me.”
Nancy then smiled at the Progenitor and commented, “It seems like this little guy has quite the temper. It won't let us touch it at all.”
Zeke turned to Lacey and Nancy. “Just touch it. It won't dare to resist anymore.”
Lacey shook her head. “Forget it. Can't you see that this little guy likes Dawnie and no one else?”
It was then Zeke realized that something seemed amiss. Why is the White Muraco Clan's Progenitor so friendly with Dawnie and so cold to the others?
Thus, Zeke quickly asked the Progenitor what the reason for its actions was.
The Progenitor replied indignantly, “It's because she's of Dragon Bloodline!”
What?
Zeke gasped. “Dawn is of the rare Dragon Bloodline?”
The Progenitor affirmed, “There's no way I'm wrong about this. The ones of the Dragon Bloodline are best suited to become Holy Maidens. If she becomes the White Muraco Clan's Holy Maiden, then the White Muraco Clan will surely soar to greater heights and return to its former glorious state!”
At that moment, Zeke fell silent. It seemed like he had recalled something.
According to Andres of the White Muraco Clan, the sorcerer Cesar should be the long-lost black Muraco Clan's elder.
Now that Zeke had decimated Black Muraco Clan, the elder of the Black Muraco Clan would certainly want to rebuild the Black Muraco Clan. If he wanted to rebuild the Black Muraco Clan, he would need a Holy Maiden.
So, is it possible that Cesar has targeted Dawn because he wants Dawn to become the Black Muraco Clan's Holy Maiden? After all, Dawn is of the Dragon Bloodline, and she's most suited to become the Holy Maiden. If she becomes the Holy Maiden, the Black Muraco Clan will surely revive like a phoenix!
Zeke was glad that he had figured that out early. If Cesar really rebuilt the Black Muraco Clan, a bloodbath would be unavoidable.
Zeke then said, “All right, Whitey. Stop the nonsense and quickly kill the Heart-Bound Worm in Dawn.”
The plan that Zeke and the White Muraco Clan's Progenitor had come up with was that the Progenitor would force the Heart-Bound Worm in Dawn to think of it as the master before having the Progenitor order the Heart-Bound Worm to kill itself.
The White Muraco Clan's Progenitor uttered, “Let me repeat my stance. You can call me White, but you must not call me Whitey.”
Zeke replied by giving it another mental whip.
