The Lady Nun Vows Revenge

Eliza responded, "So this move is called the Parasite Corpse Technique, huh? Sounds pretty intimidating

Eliza curled her slender finger, and Vexara flapped its wings, returning to perch atop her head. It looked like a beautiful butterfly hair ornament, quietly resting in her dark hair, accentuating its owner's beauty.

Adeline and the others couldn't help but mutter inwardly as they watched.

To someone unaware, it really would seem like the thing on Eliza's head was just a fancy accessory.

But in reality, it was a highly poisonous insect, capable of killing countless bugs, perhaps even countless people.

And yet Eliza let such a deadly weapon sit on her head without the slightest fear. It just showed that she was far from as simple as she appeared.

Even a kind and gentle Holy Lady needed to have some methods.

Sophie cursed, "If it weren't for that damned butterfly, poisoning my King Parasite to fight it, my techniques would be invincible!"

"Invincible?" Hearing this, Eliza couldn't help but laugh. "You really think highly of yourself."

Before Sophie could burst into rage, Eliza said in a calm tone, "I've already seen the techniques of several sorcerers. Any one of them was better at controlling parasites than you. In fact, two of them even had their own King Parasites. And do you know why my little one could easily kill yours?"

Sophie glared coldly at her, unwilling to admit defeat. "If not for poison and cheating, what else could it be?"

Eliza smiled faintly. "Simple. Their King Parasites became nourishment for Vexara. Oh right, I forgot to introduce it. This child is called Vexara, a king among all insects. It has devoured two King Parasites."

In that instant, Sophie's pupils contracted sharply.noveldrama

"As for yours, I had planned to let Vexara consume it too. But it seems Vexara accidentally poisoned it to death." Eliza continued, "Looks like next time, I'll have to head over to the Soulbind Tribe and see if they've got any more King Parasites lying around."

Son was still reeling from shock when she suddenly froze at the last three words in Eliza's sentence.

e asked, "Wait, how do you know about the Soulbind Tribe?"

nly now did Sophie realize something was very wrong. Her face changed drastically as she stared at Eliza in panic.

"I don't just know about the Soulbind Tribe," Eliza said with a serene expression. "I also know who brought you back from the dead. It was the second elder of the Soulbind Tribe, right?"

The words "brought back from the dead" struck like thunder. Not just Sophie, but Adeline and Dale were visibly shaken.

"Hold on, what do you mean, brought back from the dead? Is that even possible? Can the dead really come back to life?" Adeline couldn't help but blurt out in disbelief.

"Shut up!" Sophie snapped at her, then turned back to Eliza, gritting her teeth. "You know all this. Then was it you who had me killed back then?"

Eliza gave a faint smile. "Don't say it like that. Those people weren't sent by me. I merely gave things a little... push."

And she wasn't exactly lying.

After all, it was Gabriel who sent the assassins, and all she did was send in a few poisonous parasites to "assist them a little,

Standing nearby, Adeline and Dale listened in horror. The more they heard, the more their hearts pounded.

They'd thought witnessing the sorcerers' techniques today was eye-opening enough. But never had they expected to hear something so shocking.

Bringing someone back from the dead sounded unbelievable.

But it had happened. To none other than Sophie, someone who had been living right under their noses,

Sophie showed no signs of anything unusual. It seemed she really died and came back to life.

Adeline suddenly recalled something. Several events flashed through her mind.

She remembered when Caleb accompanied Sophie back to her family and was beaten again by the people from the Duke's estate. At that time, they'd asked Eliza to help seek justice.

After forcing compensation from Duke's estate, they'd brought Caleb back to the Marquis's estate, But Sophie didn't return until several days later.

Ever since Sophie returned that time, something had felt off. There was an odd air about her, something eerie and cold in her eyes, like a corpse.

There was even a time when Adeline tried to test her and saw Sophie sitting cross-legged on her bed, meditating. It was downright creepy.

Thinking back now, that must've been when she started practicing parasite techniques, quietly plotting against them.

Adeline was furious just thinking about it.

If only she'd known about these techniques back then, she might have seen

through Sophie's abnormal behavior and dealt with her early.

Now, she could only regret in silence, no longer daring to act rashly

Sophie, however, didn't believe a word of what Eliza had said.

But then, something suddenly clicked in her mind. Her eyes widened as she asked, her voice laced with urgency and fear, "You know about Rodrigo, Does that mean you also know they're in Hasen City?"

She hadn't tried to flee because she had already sent a message to Rodrigo and the others yesterday,

She had originally feared that the Duke's estate might have invited some powerful sorcerer to deal with her. So she'd asked Rodrigo and the others to come help today,

But now it was already late, and they still hadn't shown up. Combined with Eliza's earlier words, Sophie finally began to panic,
