All Chapters of Master of Life and Death: Chapter 281 - Chapter 290

"Don't worry, Mr. Prewett. Your grandfather's disease might be tricky to deal with, but I'll still cure him even at the expense of my own life."Once Leto was done speaking, he dug out a black bottle made of clay from his pocket. As soon as he uncorked the bottle, a seven-spotted beetle that was the size of a thumb crawled out of the bottle.The beetle was completely black. Its eyes glowed in a shade of eerie blue. It was also coated in dark green fluid, making it look extremely disgusting."That's the source parasite!" Cassian recognized the beetle in an instant. That seven-spotted beetle was Leto's source parasite.There was an evil parasitic poison that was widely used in Mogerra, known as the broodbond. For a broodbond to be established, a broodmancer would have to feed a source parasite his own blood for a long period. Then, he'd have to get the source parasite to give birth to countless thrall parasites. As long as the broodmancer could manipulate the source parasite to do

"Don't worry. Mr. Prewett Senior will wake up soon enough."Once Cassian was done speaking, he withdrew the needles he had inserted into the top of Ezekiel's head rapidly.After that, he said to Adam, "Do you have any solo cups at home? Give one to me."Adam rose to his feet. Soon, he dug out a red solo cup from one of the coffee table's drawers before handing it to Cassian.Cassian asked, "Mr. Prewett, you must be curious as to what caused Mr. Prewett Senior's sudden collapse, right?""Yes," Adam answered. "What disease did my grandfather contract?""Oh, he's not ill at all.""That's impossible! If Grandpa wasn't sick, how did he even collapse in the first place?""It's true that Mr. Prewett Senior isn't sick. He fainted because a certain something had infiltrated his body."Both Frederick's and Leto's expressions faltered slightly at Cassian's answer."A certain something? What do you mean by that?" Adam asked."You'll see what it is soon." Once Cassian was done speaking

"Did you ever get yourself in such a situation before?" Frederick asked.Leto shook his head. "I've never met anything quite like this in the past.""Isn't that weird, then? Why weren't you able to control your parasite, then?" Frederick frowned immediately.Leto explained, "When I treated Mr. Prewett Senior for the first time, the thrall parasite was still under my command. But when I treated him for the second time, it went out of my control all of a sudden and refused to listen to me regardless of the method I used.""Please make things clearer for me, Adept Mabry. Did the parasite wrench out of your control, or did you lose your connection with the parasite?""I lost my connection with the parasite."Frederick then said, "This matter truly is weird. How could the parasite suddenly lose its connection to you?"Leto added with a grim expression, "I'm very confused as well. That parasite grew up feasting on my blood. I've reared it for almost a decade. Not only that, but the so

Adam became serious immediately."You're saying that Frederick was the one who poisoned my grandfather? That's impossible! Grandpa viewed Frederick as his own grandson, not to mention my family had helped out the Campbells many times in the past! Frederick has no reason to harm my grandfather!""Human society is a complex setting, Mr. Prewett. You may view someone as a friend, but that might not be the case for said friend. You'll never know what one's actually thinking.""But—""It's always safe to be on your guard, Mr. Prewett. From now on, you should be more careful whenever you're dealing with your friends. I'm not going to dwell on this subject any longer. It's up to you whether or not you want to take my advice. Goodbye."After that, Cassian got into Mitch's car and left with him.Mitch, who had been rather curious about the whole thing, asked, "Cassian, you told Adam that Mr. Prewett Senior fainted because of a parasitic poison. Are you talking about the parasitic poisons

"The enemy has yet to show their face—"Another scream echoed at that moment, cutting Claude off.Thiago's expression changed slightly. He decided to leave his room to check out what happened."It's dangerous outside, Lord Drakeford! Please stay in your room!" Claude advised."It doesn't matter. I'd like to see who dares to cause chaos in my turf!" Wearing a grave expression, Thiago strode out of his residence in wide strides. Claude stuck to his side the whole time.They had just arrived at the courtyard when they were hit by a strong, coppery smell. Only then did they notice more than a dozen corpses sprawling across the yard.Those corpses belonged to the guards of Thiago's manor."How could this be?" Shocked, Claude reached behind his hips with his right hand and drew out a gun swiftly.Even Thiago's expression was grim. It had been many years since an enemy dared to breach his territory and attack his men. Moreover, those guards were extremely skilled, and yet they were
