Chapter 101 Two Hosts.

The Divinus insect immediately detected the change. It perked up and unfurled a little. First, it carefully crawled over to the cocoon and sniffed. All at once, its tiny black eyes sparkled with excitement.

The cocoon began trembling violently as the insect inside it was most likely terrified. It could sense impending danger.

Divinus jumped into action right away. It bit through the cocoon in just a few bites and slunk right in.

William used his X–ray vision to see what was happening on the inside. Divinus was chewing up the insect that couldn’t even fight back. It seemed to have given up on its fate as it allowed Divinus to chomp on it.

Thus, William looked away and addressed a dazed Rayna, “Get dressed.”

Rayna scrambled to get her clothes back on. William spotted her out of the corner of her eye. He could see her fair skin and though he was tempted to take a better look, he was able to rein himself in.

Once Rayna was fully dressed, she looked up his hand.

After devouring the insect, Divinus sealed up the cocoon again. Now that it had its fill, it seemed to be preparing for its metamorphosis.

Rayna was stunned. “Is everything fine with Divinus now?”

William nodded. “Yeah. It’s starting the process of metamorphosis now. This time, the effect should be even better than if it had been embedded inside a person. By the way, where did the Divinus insect come from?”

“Dad said that our clan’s ancestors first successfully cultivated Divinus during the first century AD. Not only can it cure all illnesses, but it can even provide its host with a great boost of strength during a time of danger,” Rayna explained.

“Oh? It can cure all illnesses, huh?” William’s interest was piqued. “Who has control over Divinus?”

Rayna flashed him a bitter smile. The clan went through many periods of war and unrest. The ability to control the insects has been lost so no one can control Divinus now.

William smiled and shook his head. “I roughly know the way to control it. Do you want to become its master?”

“Me?” Rayna pointed at herself with a look of shock.

William nodded. “It spent over two years living inside you. It’s only reasonable that you’re the one who controls it.

Then, with a flick of his finger, he made a tiny cut on Rayna’s little finger and held it over the cocoon. Three drops of blood fell onto the cocoon.
