Chapter 245
Alpha's Rejected Mate Returns as Queen
245 Mullwicaâs Soul
Selma Payneâs POV:
Countless souls wrapped around me and attacked Azazel.
Azazel didnât take my rebellion seriously. Instead, he squinted in delight. âYouâre so energetic. I was worried that you wouldnât be able to recover because of this. It would be so boring if you become a boring dead dog!â
With his contemptuous dodging, all my attacks missed. But it didnât matter because my primary target wasnât him at all...
âAh-!â
When Azazel dodged, New Flow wrapped the archpriest from head to toe and quickly digested its prey like a pitcher plant digesting a fly. The archpriest did not even have the time to struggle. The angry souls firmly locked his limbs, and the river absorbed the black mist that spread out. There was nothing he could do but struggle in fear.
He looked at Azazel pleadingly, but Azazel only looked at him as if he were performing. He had no intention of saving him.
âI like energetic puppies,â Azazel said as he gently picked up Dorothy, who had fallen on the snow. âBut a pet should act like a pet. You must get the ownerâs permission even if you want to bite someone.â
The grip around Dorothyâs neck gradually tightened. Her face turned red, but she did not say a word. She stared at Azazelâs face, which was 70% similar to hers, with hatred and stubbornness.
I did not let go of the archpriest because I knew that Dorothy no longer cared about her life at this point, and she did not want me to give in for her. In the twisted wailing of the priest, he gradually melted, shrank, and finally became my food. Even his soul disappeared from this world.
Finally, Azazel let go of Dorothy.
âIâm surprised youâre not as indecisive as you look.â
His sharp nails scratched Dorothyâs skin, and red blood dripped, picked up by his gorgeous fingertips, and sent into his mouth.
âIâve changed my mind,â he said. âYouâre not a qualified pet dog, but I like you very much. Would you like to be my daughter?â
I silently digested the demonâs words and asked in disdain, âBecome your daughter? After youâve killed so many of my people?â
âIf you become my daughter, youâll be a descendant of a god. Itâll be easy to capture some souls to become your kin.â Azazelâs mellow voice could easily bewitch people. âWhen the time comes, they will be able to live forever. This is the ultimate goal that many people pursue their entire lives. They will be grateful to you forever.â
A descendant of god?
Immortality?
It sounded really alluring. I would have believed it if I didnât know what kind of person this human-like demon was.
Upon receiving Dorothyâs ânow is the timeâ gaze, I suddenly burst forth, compressing all of New Flowâs power and striking at Azazel!
âAh, negotiation failed.â Azazelâs eyes turned cold. âI donât like disobedient dogs and rebellious daughters. In that case, thereâs no need for you to live!â
The sharp black mist condensed into sharp crystals and attacked me. I dodged them in a sorry state, but I didnât retract New Flow that was rooted in Azazelâs body. I could feel that the energy absorbed into my body was gradually becoming more dangerous. They were like a Kingâs cake wrapped in bombs, in danger of exploding at any time.
The crystal pierced through my shoulder blade and nailed me to the snow. Countless fine crystals floated around me, and it would only take a second for me to become a dead hedgehog.
He walked toward me, step by step. New Flow was like a giant parasite on him, but he didnât care.
âItâs dawn, child.â
He reached out.
âGood night,â he said.
The sharp crystal fell!
Whoosh-!
A dazzling golden light exploded in a flash and instantly dispelled all the dark power.
Azazel finally looked surprised. He looked at the golden mist that slowly seeped out of his body and said in disbelief, âWhat is this...?â
The golden mist swirled and condensed, finally transforming into a woman in a silver robe.
The moment she appeared, Dorothy and I said in unison, âMullwica!â
That was right. This unexpected variable was Mullwica.
After I digested the archpriest, I realized that a spell that blocked my communication with Dorothy had disappeared. Thanks to Azazelâs disgusting act of tasting his blood, Dorothy realized that there was a hidden power in Azazelâs body that resonated with her blood.
Azazel didnât notice it at all. This was undoubtedly a good opportunity for us. That was why I risked my life to attack Azazel. With the guidance of Dorothyâs blood, I managed to smuggle that mysterious power out of the New Flow.
We made the right bet. That mysterious force was indeed Mullwica, who had disappeared without a trace ever since the seal was opened.
She looked like a gentle middle-aged woman. In the face of Azazelâs shock, she said arrogantly, âGood morning, disgusting goat head. Weâve been roommates for 300 years, after all. Your eyes are really sad.â
