Kayden looked keenly towards the principal whose skin had started to ooze a black mist. He reflexively stepped back acknowledging it could be lethal to stay close.
He immediately grabbed Medusa's arm and pulled her back. Kayden's gesture made her smile that perhaps even though he was confused about his emotions, he still had some care for her.
"Is he dying? But what is this mist? And why is his body decaying so fast?"
He questioned Medusa upon seeing the back mist which was evaporating in the air. It made him think something was wrong with the principal.
The old man coughed and spit the blood but it turned into a black dust which vanished. His death was significant because the condition of the old man was already telling a lot about the time he had.
It was easier to kill the vampires but only a certain kind could eradicate the rest. Since the vampires could reproduce and pass on their blood groups, it was possible to extend their elements.
But the occurrence of O blood group was rare and the only existing ones formed the pentagon. They were the higher ups and possessed immense powers, because life made decaying elements were precious and rarely occurring.
Now that Kayden had seen the condition of the professor it forced him to think about the origin of it. Decaying element was not his possession then how come Kayden was able to access it. The certain thought made him curious and the only person who could answer him was Medusa.
"For fucks sake, tell me, whats happening? Did you do this? Did you poison him?"
Kayden raised his voice in panic and jerked Medusa a bit from her shoulders. He was still unable to grasp who among them was responsible for causing the deadly effect. Medusa smiled at him and wrapped her arms around Kayden's neck.
"You think so? I don't hold such powers, love. You did this, you are finally unlocking your potential."
The succubus lifted herself on toes and pecked on Kayden's lips. She praised his ability to explore and inquire at the slightest changes. Whereas Kayden was stunned hearing her words, it was unbelievable for him to swallow that such magic was casted by him.
He wrapped his arms around her waist, and shifted his gaze towards the principal. A smirk appeared on his face as he glanced at the succubus in his arms.
"Are you saying that it's not because of your those….those snake hair…but because of me?"
Kayden wanted to inquire that how exactly he was responsible for the whole thing when he didn't even touch the old man.
Medusa grasped what did he mean and laughed at his reluctance to talk about her hair. It made the succubus happy that he was now cautious about her. But it did not make any difference the way he treated her before was still lingering in her head. She traced her index finger on his forehead trailing downwards on his nose and seductively glanced at him.
"Yes, it's because of you. You remember the last time we shared the same bed? Whenever you share that kind of intimacy with someone, they basically absorb your demonic aura. Which in turn results into mutations and provides them additional perks."
Medusa explained to him with a precise elaboration, although it helped Kayden to conclude what happened with Lydia back in the alley.
Now everything made sense regarding what occurred withLydia and Medusa. But Kayden witnessed only one case, he still had no clue what changes happened in Medusa. Since she was talking to him normally and did not seem angry anymore, Kayden took the liberty to ask her directly just because her mood was good.
"But how am I responsible for this? Let's say I passed on some part of my power to you, how did it effect you? I mean….are you feeling any different or what?"
Kayden wanted to inquire futter and pulled the succubus closer, her twin peaks were tucked to Kayden's chest.
As he looked into her eyes and saw the glimpse of golden flecks which were similar to Lydia's. Kayden understood that he had two women now, it meant two mates who were always there to love and serve him. But what was he supposed to give in exchange? Or was their intimacy dual cultivation in form of transferring some perks?
Medusa could feel his hot breath over her face which excited her but the succubus kept herself calm. She did not want him to know that she was still willing to forgive him despite everything he had done. Thus the woman suppressed her smiles and kept a partially stern face.
"No, I don't feel any different. It's just I have this…dark aura in my core, which has changed my powers. The intensity of my senses have increased and the snake hair you just saw,"
Medusa paused for a bit to glance at his face and witnessed an underlying fright, after all he had never seen something like that before. She resumed her speech only after confirmation and kept it as her secret card for further sneaky use.
"My snake hair were supposed to turn the attacker into stone, not to bite them and induce decaying. That happened because of your demonic aura."
She explained him making Kayden to rethink about his own powers, and forced him to ponder how far he could go with those wondrously powerful magic! Kayden on the other hand though for a moment and then turned his head towards the principal. He was concerned to see that the body of principal was almost halfway gone. And his lower body was almost vanished in the air, the rest of the upper body was slowly decaying like flying ashes.
He became worried about how dangerous his powers could be and how he could potentially hurt the people around him. It also made Kayden curious that what if he passed over his powers to some bad person?
