So what exactly is a parasite and where did it come from? Well… despite it being our natural enemy, we could only collect so much information about them.

First is the lowest of the lowest parasites, the Scout Parasites.

They hunt

They contaminate

They take over

They grow

They divide

They hunt again.

They have only 3 purposes:

One is to create inter-racial conflicts

Two is to create intra-racial conflicts

And three is to collect all the weaknesses and strong points about the races in question.

The scout's minimal power is SS level with the ability to fly with their insect-like wings and rip apart the flesh with their deadly sharp, long claws. Their main power, or perhaps their only power, not including the typical powers of contaminating and regrowing, is their physical prowess.

They are too f*cking strong to be killed by merely using physical attacks.

Scout parasites, like all parasites, have the ability to contaminate and grow by infecting any other living being in the vicinity. Even if they die, as long as a part of them is alive in another body, they could survive and regrow.

In other words, they are fucking immortal unless they are completely anhillated, not leaving any trace behind.

Like Zombies, they keep spreading but, rather than growing exponentially, their growth is more inclined to shifting with a limited number. In other words, the amount of parasites will always remain the same, though for every parasite killed, another will take over because usually every parasite has infected more than one living being and you never know if you are infected or not.

There are many ways of killing them, with some working better than the others. Though my blood is still one of the best weapons, because it not only gives them an excruciatingly painful death, but it can also cut the connection of the parasite in question from their counterparts.

What it means is that if I kill a parasite at one place using my blood, even if it has another part living in another being, it can't grow because the medium, which I still haven't found out, but is supposed to be the connecting link between their two bodies, gets cut which luckily kills the counterpart as well.

What comes after the Scout Parasites are Captain Parasites, which are nothing more than bigger and better scout parasites. They are exactly similar to scout parties with the only difference pertaining to their power level being SSS level.

Above them are General Parasites, which are now much, much more dangerous than the Captain Parasites. While their physical prowess is the same, they have gained the ability to control an element. Depending upon the elements, they could be fire parasites, water parasites, or perhaps any other ability related kind.

Their elemental control is extremely exceptional too, with their mana level being as strong as their physical level, which makes them both scary and tricky opponents to deal with. They, for the most part, don't have any weakness and are regarded as elemental calamity monsters of the SSSS grade or the S4 Grade.

How to kill them? Haha! That's something one should not think about until they have reached at least S5 or perhaps S6 level. Only then they could hope to kill… or at times, survive the confrontation with the General.

What comes later are the Count, Viscount, Duke and Royal Parasites with their Grading being S5, S6, X and XX level. Though, that is something we won't need to deal with unless we are about to go to war with them on their own planet.

......…..

"Where were you for the whole month? And that… How could you harm yourself like that? What happened to you?" Elle asks with a glare as she looks at me and I, a bit confused, turned to Amon who was still talking with the screen.

"Can you explain… what is going on here?" I asked Amon, a bit confused at her behaviour and Amon answers,

[All the time you were in the Gate of Avalon, time was stopped for the outside world. However, inside here, time keeps on moving so… you can understand the rest, can't you?]

Looking at that text on the blue screen, I pondered a little before nodding at it and then saw Elle making the same furious look before she spoke,"explain what is going on here?"

I sigh before telling her the gist of the situation and hearing my explanation, she doesn't speak a single word till the very end and patiently listens to me.

Her expression changed at various parts of the stories but she kept herself silent until the very end of the story… where we reached the part where I was about to kill that minotaur girl which made her close her eyes before sighing and then asking again,

"Okay… I understand all that. We will circle back to it with the minotaur girl and everything but tell me this first… Why, in the f*ck's sake, were you harming yourself like that?"

I looked at her and she wasn't just furious but was clearly mad at me… she looked like she would kill me immediately if she had the chance to… and now she is even more furious… oh! She could read my thoughts… maybe I should try hiding my though-

-Bang!!!

Not able to control herself, she punches me furiously, pushing me away before she vanishes and reaches behind me and then…

-Bang!!

She kicked me violently, however this time I caught her foot as I looked at her and said,"This was the fastest way," and she glared again before punching me…

-Bang!!

I use both of my forearms to brace her attack and then she speaks again,"are you so low on time that you are hurting yourself without any concern for your safety?"

And I look at her, getting a bit sad with the same fury as she looks at me. Her eyes just kept gazing at me with emotions which I failed to read…

"Okay… I won't harm myself, unless it is extremely necessary," I said as I looked at her…
