Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 2342

However, the pain didn't last long as it soon turned into a form of energy instead.

The energy was so powerful that Zeke could barely keep it under control.

What the... This energy is so powerful that it feels like my arm is going to explode! I could probably punch a hole in the sky with this!

Zeke got a little excited at the thought of that. He had a feeling that Ossa Dei had fused with his body, as his right arm possessed Ossa Dei's power.

But... why would Ossa Dei betray Daemonium and fuse with me all of a sudden?

That question had just popped up in Zeke's head when he received an answer in the form of a thought.

Dragon Bloodline!

That thought appeared to be directly from Ossa Dei's consciousness.

Oh, right! The Dragon Bloodline! Dawn's Dragon Bloodline must've suppressed Ossa Dei! My Heart-Bound Worm used to be in Dawn's body, so it contains some of her Dragon Bloodline. Ossa Dei submitted to me because it detected the Dragon Bloodline from the Heart-Bound Worm!

Zeke smacked himself on the forehead as the sudden realization dawned on him.

If having such a tiny amount of Dragon Bloodline in the Heart-Bound Worm is enough to make Ossa Dei submit, then would Ossa Dei be worshiping Dawn like a god if she were here in person? The Dragon Bloodline sure is powerful! I suppose I should be thankful that Cesar made Dawn swallow that Heart-Bound Worm back then. Otherwise, I would've been dead by now! One man's meat is another man's poison, and misfortunes can be blessings in disguise.

While Zeke and his men were thrilled by the sudden turn of events, Daemonium was on the verge of having a mental breakdown.

He refused to accept the fact that he had just been heartlessly betrayed.

“Why? Why would you betray me? I was the one who discovered you! I was the one who brought you back to life! I even had my men safeguard you! You're mine! Come back, Ossa Dei! I'll give you as much blood as you want! Please come back to me!”

Suddenly, Zeke and Daemonium heard Ossa Dei's voice in their heads saying, “I want those with the Dragon Bloodline!”

Huh? Dragon Bloodline?

Daemonium stared at Zeke in confusion. “Y-You have the Dragon Bloodline? No, this can't be! How could you possibly have the Dragon Bloodline? According to the data I have on you, you're just an ordinary healthy male!”

Zeke was a little surprised. “You seriously don't know that Dawn is from the Dragon Bloodline?”

“Who's Dawn? Is she really from the legendary Dragon Bloodline?” Daemonium asked in confusion.

As Daemonium's expression of shock looked genuine, Zeke could tell that he didn't know about Dawn being from the Dragon Bloodline.

“To tell you the truth, Cesar had long since found out about Dawn being from the Dragon Bloodline. He even placed the Heart-Bound Worm inside her because he wanted her to become his Holy Maiden. He didn't tell you this because he didn't want you taking her away from him,” Zeke replied.

Daemonium was furious when he heard that. “That b*stard! Cesar is such a good-for-nothing piece of trash! I can't believe he'd keep such a huge secret from me! He deserves nothing but death! Hold on... If Ossa Dei submits to those from the Dragon Bloodline, why would it submit to you? You're not from the Dragon Bloodline!”

“It's all thanks to Cesar. You see, I removed the Heart-Bound Worm that he placed in Dawn's body. Because the Heart-Bound Worm has Dawn's blood in it, Ossa Dei mistook me for being from the Dragon Bloodline and submitted to me,” Zeke said.

“Argh! D*mn it, Cesar! How many times must that b*stard ruin my plans? He deserves to die a thousand times!” Daemonium yelled at the top of his lungs.
