“Craigor!”

Everyone on the altar was stunned to see Craigor, who was Kurt's long-lost uncle. He was the person who suddenly caused the worm inside Kurt's body to turn on him.

Why?

Holding onto his chest, Kurt was pale in shock as he looked at his uncle who had appeared out of nowhere.

The worm that Lucy left inside his body had been disposed of by Xayden. Hence, the one that remained was given to him by his mother when he was young.

It was the red-colored worm that emerged from his palm when he was on the train back then.

That worm was the King Worm of the Zenisians.

Evidently, they were members of the Zenisians too. It wasn't until something happened to his aunt and his mom was exiled to Black Marsh that they were chased out of Elysium.

In spite of that, his mom had given him the King Worm when he was a child.

The King Worm would only protect its host and never harm the latter unless it met with its Mother Worm.

Kurt stared blankly at his uncle.

“Why?”

“Why? How dare you ask me why? Kaiden, have you forgotten how your aunt's two brothers died? Have you also forgotten that your mom and sister are still imprisoned by this heartless animal?” Craigor berated his nephew the moment he arrived in front of Kurt.

At that moment, Kurt's face lost all color.
