Worms were peculiar creatures.
On their own, they were nothing powerful.
Even Rank 3 worms were relatively easy to kill if one stayed out of range and took advantage of their frail bodies and lack of defenses.
They had a bad reputation too, calling someone a worm meant they were insignificant and worthless.
But…
If a worm made its way inside you?
That was an entirely different story.
Some parasitic worm species were so vicious, even their Rank 2 versions could liquify the insides of a Rank 3 body in moments.
During Wild Fang and Unforgiven Shadows' fight, a lightbulb flickered above Liam's head. Specifically, Wild Fang started to grow tired.
…If a worm somehow managed to enter through someone's flesh in the middle of a battle, how would they deal with it?
Well, the answer was simple.
…They wouldn't.
