Cursed Immortality-Novel

Lunging on trees, Jacob, holding the black sniper rifle, was looking at A-0, who was wobbling around the trees while running, and there was a hint of shock in his eyes.

"He managed to dodge two bullets from my iron titan sniper. Just what kind of species he belonged to?" Jacob asked.

"Hehe, he's a mix between a High Orc and a Stealth Chameleon. You can say he's a Demi High Orc, and High Orc is a proactive war Legendary Race. So, it's only natural he had their survival instincts. He had the potential to be Unique." Immortika revealed.

Jacob was astonished as he looked at A-0, who was slowly regaining his senses and wasn't giving Jacob's chance to take a shot at him anymore as he moved in a zigzag pattern.

His speed was not any slower than his when he wasn't using fluid acceleration.

But Jacob was already using 5X acceleration, and he was quickly closing in. He no longer planned to waste more bullets since he could get rid of that wounded prick himself now.

However, when Jacob was only less than fifty meters away from catching up, he noticed A-0 take out something from his space ring, and it was a white scroll.

'It seemed he regained enough focus to remember he had a space ring. And that white scroll is a magic scroll!' Jacob's guard was instantly raised as he knew those magic scrolls were like bombs, and he didn't want to be at the receiving end.

So, Jacob threw the notion of saving some bullets as that guy was probably more dangerous if he didn't kill him as quickly as possible.

But A-0 had already crushed the white scroll and beat Jacob by a hair before he could take aim.

A brilliant light suddenly shone from the point where the white scroll was crushed, hindering Jacob's sight greatly, almost blinding it.

Now, it was Jacob's turn to feel impending danger coming his way, and for someone with his current level to feel danger, it was not a joke. So, without hesitation, his acceleration increased to 10X, and he ran in the opposite direction to the incoming whiteness before it could envelop him.

When Jacob was fifty meters away from that whiteness, it didn't expand anymore, and when he turned around to see what kind of magic scroll it was, he was shocked because a white doom covered fifty meters radius.

"A magic barrier?" Jacob instantly guessed.

Furthermore, he was feeling danger from that barrier, so he knew it would not bode well for him to come in physical contact with it.

"Is he hiding there?" He asked Immortika.

Because if it turned out to be the case, then he didn't know just how long that barrier would last, so he needed to take some drastic measures to break that barrier without touching it.

"Hahahahah… what a cunning fellow, that barrier is just a decoy which can fool your senses, and he's already two hundred meters away from using. If you can't feel him, then it might be the result of him using another black scroll." Immortika amusingly wrote.

"No, that barrier wasn't a decoy. It was most likely meant to trap me within!" Jacob's expression changed as he stopped wasting his time standing there and quickly gave chase. He nearly got fooled by that wounded fellow by thinking that he was hidden in that barrier.

'Just who is this guy.' Jacob thought while he followed the direction where Immortika was leading him. He was hell-bent on killing this guy, and the reason was nothing but his precious heart!

A-0, who was chucking down vial after vial of crystal green liquid as his wounds were starting to mend, couldn't get rid of that dangerous sensation even after using that precious 9-star blind barrier magic scroll and another 9-star shadow magic scroll.

'Why is he so strong… who is he… could it be he's an epic?! No, impossible nobody can go against the restriction of a plain. Just who is he…'

However, the feeling of dead enveloping him rose again, and he jumped down.

"Kboomm..'

"Ahhhhh…."

He screamed when he saw his leg had been blown off despite his managing to save his head.

'He can see me… no, no, I'm going to die. I don't want to die!' A-0 felt his mind on the verge of a breakdown, and with the pain, it started getting worse.

He never thought he would die like this, and he didn't even have a chance to retaliate as the other party was simply too terrifying to track him down. But he knew the true reason for his demise was that weapon which was even faster than his danger sense.

His reaction speed which should be around Epic-tier-1 was nothing in front of the bullet speed, and this type of weapon shouldn't exist on the rare plains.

"Ahhh…haa… s-stop! Please stop! I-I… why are you attacking me?!" He roared with an appalled expression while surpassing his pain.

At this time, Jacob finally landed a few meters in front of A-0, who looked like a mess with his leg blown and his face still filled with blood.

"Because I like your heart." Jacob dismissively replied before he left an afterimage and appeared right in front of A-0, and his short sword had already appeared in his hand.

Appalled, A-0 never thought this guy would be so decisive as he didn't even wait for him to react.

"Wait… I'm D….kikk."

The sword blade passed through his throat before he could even complete his words, and the light in his eyes dimmed down as his head rolled on the group within his own blood.

"I don't care who you are." Jacob scoffed as he stowed away A-0's entire body leaving behind his mingled head.

Jacob had already felt A-0's movement of hand when he tried to talk with him, and he knew he was up to no good. He had seen and heard too many scenarios when giving a chance to your enemy to talk could be fatal.

Jacob hadn't killed A-0 because he was his enemy. He didn't even know if he was an enemy or just a passerby or someone who was drawn in by that explosion. The guy didn't even attack him first.

Jacob killed A-0 because he had something he needed, and he couldn't stop him from taking it. It was that simple!
