Lord Protector Novel

Fortuna wrapped itself around Zeke's shoulder and tapped its head on his arm. “Hey, Ossa Dei! Come on out! Let's have a chat!”

“Shoo! We'll settle our score some other day!” Ossa Dei had a burning hatred for Fortuna.

“Oh, come on, Ossa Dei! Don't be so angry! I only absorbed your luck because I didn't know you were conscious! I wouldn't have done so if I knew!” Fortuna explained.

“Shut up! I clearly warned you, so you knew full well that I was conscious at the time! You did it on purpose!” Ossa Dei snapped back at it.

“Um... All right, we'll talk about that some other time. Right now, I want to make a proposal that will benefit both of us greatly,” Fortuna said awkwardly.

As Ossa Dei didn't say anything in response, Fortuna couldn't tell if it was ignoring him or allowing him to continue.

“I'm just a spirit without a physical form, so my power is severely limited. Since your lack of a host also limits your power, how about we fuse and become one? We'll be able to make full use of our powers if you provide me with a physical body. I'll also let you control half of the body. What do you say?”

Angered by Fortuna's suggestion, Ossa Dei sent him flying with a powerful shock wave.

“Your spiritual body isn't worthy of hosting me! I will only submit to those from the Dragon Bloodline! Anyone else who has such thoughts is punishable by death! I'll only forgive you for this once. If you do it again, I'll kill you for sure!”

Fortuna became a lot weaker after taking that hit from Ossa Dei.

Noticing that Zeke was staring at him with an amused smile, Fortuna shot him a glare in response as he shouted, “What are you laughing at, huh?”

“What's not to laugh about? You got hit for trying to steal Ossa Dei from me. It was funny because you had it coming!” Zeke replied, much to Fortuna's chagrin.

Hmph! Just you two wait and see! I'll get that d*mned bone even if I have to self-destruct!

Ossa Dei's power was so tempting that Fortuna couldn't help but crave it.

Of course, Fortuna wasn't the only one who wanted its power. Those from the Netherworld were after it as well.

After everyone left the battlefield, a shadow slowly crawled out of the river.

The shadow looked left and right to make sure no one was around before sneaking away.

Although it didn't have a face to show its expressions, the shadow was feeling very depressed at the time.

The death of a high-ranking core member like Daemonium and the complete annihilation of the Fourth Branch is a huge loss for the Netherworld. To make matters worse, Ossa Dei has sided with the enemy! It looks like the Netherworld will be in for a rough time from here onward...

After running for about half an hour, the shadow finally arrived at one of the Netherworld's secret bases.

It was a small base that Warren managed temporarily.
