Chapter 241: Wind Chimes

The necrotic parasite held up a black cube in its narrow jaws.

Its undead, green, beady eyes seemed to say ‘thank you for waiting. I missed you’ - from what Jay could tell anyway.

Jay bent down and grabbed the black cube out of his necrotic parasite’s mouth.

“Come.” he said as he tapped his chest with a loving smile.

The helminth snapped its jaws happily and sprung at Jay, its body reassembling into a necklace around his neck while its invisible ethereal body rested itself around his neck, scanning for enemies - victims for its necrotic bolts.

Jay glanced at Asra, still wrapped in the noon-leather blanket.

“Ah… don’t attack the vampire.” Jay thought, and his parasite squeezed his neck a little, as if to say ‘yes, master.’.

Still holding the black cube in his hand, Jay tried to analyse it - yet nothing happened.

“Huh, maybe it’s just a weird rock?” Jay wondered, considering throwing it away.
