Suddenly, Gaeton felt severe pain in his back, then he felt the numbness and itchiness spread all over his body.
It was like countless insects were biting him. Gaeton wanted to scream as the feeling of numbness turned into pain. It was as if his muscles were being cut by a sharp knife. He screamed and rolled on the ground.
"Jacob... you are cruel, you are so cruel..." Gaeton suddenly remembered Jacob's pat on his back before he ran away.
It was the Skeleton Parasite. It would eat up all his muscles. Such a painful way to die! It would take at least ten days or even half a month for Gaeton to die.
Jacob had always believed in karma. Gaeton and his father had gone all out to get the Forbidden lamella of dragon, even willing to kill off each other just to get hold of it, yet they got nothing in return.
A few days passed in the blink of an eye. Rolande was poisoned when she ran away. Thankfully, she recovered after Jacob treated her, so she was now able to move around freely.
