Chapter 4336

The Tyrant and his wife were struggling to keep the hordes of Golems at bay while keeping the Scorpicore-Upyr that was chasing them from killing them.

“Seriously?” Quylla’s Bloodbind chains whipped furiously at the black leonine beast that had just tried to bite her in half. “You’re a Scorpicore, a Lesser Divine Beast!

“How could you join Meln, I mean, Jorl’s side when the foremother of your species ascended to Guardianhood?”

“Good question.” The Upyr had two sets of wings and eyes like a Sekhmet, but the wings were all membranous like a bat’s, and his eyes shone with the red light of undeath instead of fire. “Here’s another. Do you know what a Sekhmet can do?”

“No.” Morok dodged a cannonade of the Golems’ elemental blasts, using Domination to alter their trajectory enough to send them inside the Scorpicore’s open maw.

“And neither does anyone else!” Tershor roared, ignoring the pain from his tongue freezing, burning, and rotting at the same time. “While my so-called ancestor takes her sweet time doing whatever she wants, those like me suffer.

“I’m just taking what’s rightfully mine! It’s all Scarlett’s fault if I’m doing this. If only she cared about her descendants as she claims to, she would have taught us Scorpicores how to become Sekhmets, and I wouldn’t have been forced to become an Upyr.”
