CHAPTER 3078 MONTANE DAEMON
“But what if he belongs to the Inferno Devil lineage? Our blood demon clan has always been at odds with them,” Rosetta said, still worried.
“That's impossible. Their clan is in the far north. Besides, no one has seen an Inferno Devil Demonic Cultivator in years. How could we have run into one today by coincidence? Stop letting your thoughts run wild. We sneaked out to cure your bloodlust. The more you get wound up over it, the worse it will be for your health,” Dalton reassured her once more while patting her shoulder.
“All right,” she replied with a nod.
However, at that moment, Rosetta's brows suddenly furrowed. Her expression twisted into an agonized grimace as veins protruded on her face and her eyes turned bloodshot.
The woman trembled all over, her face scrunching up as two fangs rapidly extended in her mouth.
However, Dalton did not panic at the sight, appearing as though he was already used to it.
He merely pulled out a dagger and slit his arm, drawing blood from the cut instantly.
Immediately after, he let the blood drip into the woman's lips. Her expression gradually returned to normal as blood flowed continually into her mouth.
The woman was soon back to her usual self, her agonized expression returning to its lovely state.
Distress and guilt filled her countenance as she stared at the wound on the man's arm.
There were already a lot of scars on the man's arms, all evidently caused by similar incidents.
“I'm sorry, Dalton, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to. I couldn't control myself...”
Rosetta burst into tears as she bandaged his wound.
“Don't cry. I know you can't control yourself, so there's no need to blame yourself. Despite your bloodlust, you've never harmed anyone,” he said with a smile.
“Dalton, why don't we go back? Maybe my dad has a way of treating it. If this continues, I'll drain you dry sooner or later.”
The woman was starting to regret coming out and wanted to go back.
“We can't. If Master learns that you secretly practiced the blood demon technique and developed bloodlust, he'll burn you alive. Think about how many of us have been dealt with in this manner. Even if you're his daughter, he won't be merciful. Master once said we can be heinous demons in the eyes of others, but we must never do heinous things. We can't choose our identities as demons, but we can choose how to go about things,” Dalton said to her with a serious expression.
Rosetta was rendered speechless and could only remain silent.
“Don't worry, Rosetta. This time, I'll definitely find a way to cure your bloodlust...”
After saying that, Dalton drew her into his arms.
No sooner had he done that than his expression changed, and he pushed her away.
“Rosetta, stay in the room and don't wander off.”
With that, he threw the door open.
An elderly man shrouded in a black robe stood outside the door. Only his eyes on his skeletal face sparkled with life.
The elderly man grinned when he saw Dalton throwing the door open. “How boring. You're no fun at all. I thought I would be able to hear your coupling. Who knew you'd discover my presence...”
After saying that, the elderly man spun on his heels and left, not forgetting to glance at the woman inside the room before doing so. This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.
Dalton's expression was exceedingly grim as he stared at the elderly man's departing silhouette.
Rosetta also appeared horrified when she got a clear look at the elderly man's face.
Dalton entered the room and closed the door behind him.
“Dalton, what is Montane Daemon doing here?” Rosetta asked fearfully, her eyes wide.
“Beats me, but he wouldn't dare to act recklessly and do anything to us on this spirit ship. Otherwise, everyone would be doomed if the ship was destroyed. Don't be so nervous.”
Even though Dalton was reassuring her, his expression remained extremely grim.
