Lord Protector Novel

There was still a chance for them to change the situation.

But they've already pledged allegiance to the Black Muraco Clan's Progenitor. How are we supposed to turn the tables?

Nevertheless, in the end, Erwen chose to put her trust in the two of them and waited to see how things would turn out.

Soon, the White Muraco Clan people were done pledging their allegiance to the Black Muraco Clan's Progenitor. The only ones left were Yazmin and Erwen.

Immediately, everyone turned to look at the two of them.

Claus, especially, was staring at Yazmin with a pleading look.

He was close to Yazmin. Although he was using her, as time went by, he started growing feelings for her.

Just then, Yazmin took in a deep breath and walked toward the Black Muraco Clan's Progenitor.

Panicking, Erwen shot out her hand to grab Yazmin's hand. “Yazmin, are you really going to join the Black Muraco Clan?”

Yazmin sighed. “If we don't do that, we'll die. I'm still young. I don't want to just die like this. We can only have hope when we're alive.”

“But—”

Not giving a chance for Erwen to say anything else, Yazmin walked toward the Black Muraco Clan's Progenitor. She then released her Life-Bound Worm and pledged her allegiance to the Black Muraco Clan's Progenitor.

Erwen was gobsmacked.

Even Yazmin had pledged her allegiance. It seemed there was no way the situation was going to change anymore.

What Yazmin and Zeke had said earlier was only to console her.

With a smile that did not reach his eyes, Cain said, “Erwen, what are you waiting for? Your people have joined the Black Muraco Clan. What other reasons do you have to be against that idea? Yazmin's right. If you don't join the Black Muraco Clan, you'll die. Don't worry. I won't treat you terribly when you join the Black Muraco Clan. I'll even let you keep your role the Holy Maiden.

At that, Erwen shot him a vicious look. Just as she was about to reject him, Zeke grabbed her arm and walked over to the Black Muraco Clan's Progenitor.

“Let's go, Erwen.”

“Where to?” Erwen was shocked.

“To pledge your allegiance to the Black Muraco Clan's Progenitor, of course.”

“What?”

She instantly struggled, but no matter how hard she tried, she could not break free of his grasp.

“I won't do it! Even if I die, I won't join the Black Muraco Clan!”

Left without a choice, Zeke used his energy to speak to Erwen. “Trust me, Erwen. I'll give you an explanation later. Your allegiance to the Black Muraco Clan's Progenitor is only temporary. Soon, I'll show you something great.”

Where's that voice coming from?

Erwen was taken aback by the voice in her head, and she quickly whipped her head to seek the source of the voice.

Was that Zeke's voice? But why is that voice in my head?

Hastily, she asked Yazmin, “Yazmin, did you hear anything just now?”

Yazmin shook her head. “I didn't.”

She didn't?

Erwen then curiously turned to look at Zeke. “What... was that just now?”

Zeke spoke to her with his energy again. “It's my voice. Just do as I tell you to. Don't ask any questions, and don't say anything.”

Hearing the voice in her head stunned Erwen even more. Now, she was certain that Zeke was much more powerful than she originally thought he was.

It was likely for someone like him to have the capability to change the situation.
