Chapter 608 Alcott's Gifts

Aella inspected the bow, smiling. "It's amazing," She pulled the string, and a spectral arrow of compressed wind emerged, whistling like the howling winds of the elvish forest.

"It might not reach the same raw power of your steel bow, but it more than makes it in elemental damage and range. You have Zephyr. You'll never run of wind for arrows." Alcott smiled and looked at the door, "I know you're there. Come here before I stand to rip your head off,"

Click! Arad's main door opened.

Vasilissa stared at him, standing at the entrance. "I hate those with a sharp sense,"

"And I hate those hard to track," Alcott stood, and Arad beside him. Both rested their fists on their hips, creating a wall between Vasilissa and the girls.

"Is she a problem? She only helped," Arad said, tilting his head.

"Don't know. All I know is that she's a dragon in hiding at least, probably something else, at least not human." Alcott replied, "Strong and hiding her presence to look human," He tilted his head like Arad, only in the opposite direction.

"It's only your guts, don't forget that." Vasilissa, "Don't go around accusing people."

Alcott giggled, his eyes turned white as a strange magic crackled through his bones. The muscles on his frame expanded a bit, causing his shirt to tear a bit.

Vasilissa took a step back, "You're scaring me,"

"I'm not," Alcott smiled, pointing at the girls in the back. Their faces had paled, and their mana started flickering, their subconsciousness telling them to run away from Alcott.

Arad looked at Alcott from the side. ^What's this?^

^[HAHAHA!]^ Doma laughed her ass off in Arad's head. ^[All of the curses and tribulations he went through are sparking inside his body and soul in harmony. After a decade of decay due to the contradiction of the vampiric, lycanthropic, the undead, and countless shifts his body went through, they are finally starting to coexist.]^

Vasilissa stared at Alcott, holding her smile. ^He's power is coming back, and he might even surpass his peak. He's a human, but he went far beyond the limits. A creature, soon he might become the strongest creature that isn't a magic dragon or an outer being.^

Thud! Alcott dropped on the couch, putting one leg on another and taking a sighting, "I bet she's a steel dragon. Those bastards are good at hiding as humans. If you're here to watch over Arad, tell the metallic queen that I still didn't need to visit her palace. She'll love to keep it like that."

Vasilissa walked into the living room and sat facing Alcott, putting one leg on the other, "Let's keep it at this. This conversation better not continue. Unless we want to trash Arad's house." She stared at him, ^Dominance, He means every word. He never had trouble with either the chromatic or metallic queens, but if someone is crazy enough to pull up on them, it's him.^ She remembered how he dragged Scarlett[Ginger] out of her castle even though she turned him into a vampire.Where Stories Blossom: N♡vεlB¡n.

"You're right," Alcott glared at her.

Arad, stood in silence, his eyes jumping from one to another. ^I've a feeling that I shouldn't anger any of them. Brother, where are you? I might need help here.^

"Let's keep this under wrap for now," Alcott reached to his bag of holding, pulling a necklace, "This is for Mira,"

"She might be dead," Vasilissa giggled, shaking her head.

"She's alive," Alcott's eyes flashed gold, "I can still catch a faint whiff of her smell at night and see traces of her face in the stars."

^Humans are persistent hunters. They chase their prey until they beg for death. Now give that human enchanted power and senses from countless curses and transformations, and you'll have a killer that can't be shaken away.^ Vasilissa smiled. ^Going back might not be a bad idea.^

Alcott swung his fist in the air, "First thing, I'll give her a good beating for running away without a word. At least say something,"

"Please don't," Arad sighed at his side.

"If she can evade me, I bet she's at least can fight." Alcott smiled, "Well, she was a mage, but nowhere close to Merlin,"

"If you think Merlin was better," Vasilissa stared at him, "Why didn't you marry her instead?"

"She turned me into a woman for a month," Alcott replied, "And I prefer women who aren't shaken by my strength, or at least the ones willing to try killing me,"

"Me too," Arad smiled, nodding.

"A hard life," Vasilissa looked down, "The weak always dies around you, and you don't want that farewell to be with someone close. You two are really alike,"

"You think so?" Alcott reached toward his back, "Isdis," He shouted, "I got something for you. I bet even Baltos can't match it."

Alcott pulled a black and gold laced flute. The moment Vasilissa saw it, she lunged forward, swinging her hand to smack it from Alcott's hand.

Alcott moved his hand, dodging her palm, and jumped toward the door, "Look, you're fast, aren't you."

Zephyr flew toward him, "Damn you, Alcott! That thing is supposed to be destroyed. Why are you still keeping it around?"

Alcott laughed, opening the door and rushing outside, "Catch me if you can,"

"I'll keep an eye on him!" Vasilissa rushed after him, and Zephyr stared at Arad, "You better break that damned flute. It's akin to your nipple knife, a true damage weapon that targets the mind,"

^[If Isdis had that flute, she could control the kingdom's people like the rats in the Pied Piper. It had driven every user to madness and drenched them in the lust for control.]^

^Does it even have rules, or is it mind control?^

^[I did put some rules when I made it. I might be able to dispel the negative effects.]^
