Chapter 76: Parseltongue - An Elite Ability!!!
A frosty breath escaped his mouth as Kai opened his eyes.
The warning notification was still flashing red, but his HP was slowly regenerating. He tried to lift his finger. Finding that he could, he brought out his strength to move his wrist. With the slightest motion, a book appeared by his side.
"Sel..." Kai uttered half the name. The Ghost Serpent slithered out from his blindside.
Kai’s eyes shook, seeing her state. Before, she was as smooth as milk, being covered in smoother white scales. Now, all of her scales were overlapping each other, giving the Ghost Serpent a distinct draconian appeal, like dragons. When she slithered, rings of alternate black and yellow color seemed to travel along her length from head to tail.
Even her eyes had changed, becoming pupilless.
Her left eye was just a mass of turbid yellow, like the color of the enormous door from his Blood Prophecy that made Kai tremble upon recalling it. Her right eye was pitch black, the color of utmost darkness. When focused, he felt an illusion as if hundreds of tiny black tendrils were wriggling inside that darkness, like worms.
The most conspicuous change about her was the vertical gash on her forehead.
It seemed like someone had tried to open her head by cutting it down, but then changed their mind and closed the wound hastily.
Hisss!
-Save- she hissed.
-Save him- she cried.
