Cursed Immortality

The Earthen Kingdom,

The prime minister was looking at the capped A-10000, who was holding some papers in his hands with uncertainty. He didn't know why A-10000 had the already marching troops retreat just because of a measly A-rank mercenary appearance among humans.

He was also confused about the disappearance of A-9999, but he didn't dare to poke his nose into these scary existences matters.

At this moment, A-10000 placed the reports on the table and said coldly, "Are you positive this person is a human, and not a high-ranking member of three hegemonies?"

After he encountered Jacob, A-10000 was feeling extremely apprehensive since A-9999 left him alone here to watch over the cannibal plan.

When he acquired reports that an A-rank human had appeared out of the blue, without even a second thought, he had the earthen kingdom retrieve their armies and found everything and anything on this variable.

He didn't want to experience another incident like Jacob, and he even thought this human was that Faceless Ancient who was playing with them.

But these reports were all telling another story.

The Prime Minister replied, "From our spies, it's completely confirmed that this person is a hidden ascetic, and he registered over the years ago as a C-rank mercenary in a small town, and he's also an advance-apprentice gunsmith.

"Although he looked young, my guess is, he might've stumbled upon some opportunity in the Rainy Mountain Ranges, and that's how he managed to become A-rank. Probably some potion or other medicine.

"Now that he's an A-rank, he decided to show himself, and it's quite clear that he doesn't know about our existence, or he won't dare to be so reckless. He might've already considered himself the king of the uncommon region now, and humans' morals will soar because of it."

He sneered in disdain when he thought about how this brat showed off his power and acted like a tyrant. Furthermore, he even wanted to personally go there to teach him a lesson. But alas, A-10000 was acting with too much caution.

A-10000 had already seen these details in the reports, but he was still feeling somewhat doubtful, "What if he's that protector you encountered that day and pretending to be human to lure us out?"

The Prime Minister replied with uncertainty, "There is a possibility that it's him since the Lionheart City is close to the old lab's location, but we can't find out for sure without probing his strength."

He had already thought of this possibility, but he felt this wasn't the guy since that person was much calmer and didn't strike him as a type who would reveal his whereabouts like this and act like a debaucher tyrant.

The possibility was there nevertheless, and they couldn't ignore it.

"Nah, he's pure human." A snickering voice rang at this moment, which startled both of them.

"You're finally back!" A-10000 called out with a thrill in his voice. He never thought he would be so glad to see this crazy woman, A-9999.

"Tsk, I don't want to, but I had to." A-9999 annoyingly replied.

A-10000 was still glad as he quickly asked, "So, you check this Silver Tyrant fellow?"

A-9999 seriously replied this time, "Indeed. The moment I heard the rumors, I went to that area and investigated thoroughly, and he's a human. I could have crushed him, but I'm afraid he might have some connection with three hegemonies, so I'll leave him to a native."

The Prime Minister quickly bowed. "I'll deal with him. Don't worry, my lady."

"No, let him enjoy his short live glory for a while." A-9999 chuckled darkly before she continued, "How many cannibals can you make with already accumulated human blood?"

A-10000 blurted with anticipation, "So, he left?!"

He didn't dare to go out until that Faceless Ancient was still in the uncommon region; he was afraid that fellow would hold a grudge and hunt him down when A-9999 won't be around to protect him.

A-9999 sneered disdainfully, "Look at your cowardliness. He's indeed not in the Humane Kingdom, but I'm going to scan the entire place just in case he's still hiding here. In five or six months, our reinforcement would be here, then we don't need to worry about him. But this doesn't mean we can show our faces as we please. Now let him answer my question."

This conversation baffled the Prime Minister since he didn't know what they were talking about.

Nonetheless, he quickly answered A-9999's question, "With the blood, we already collected, it's enough to create over 100 cannibals same as the first one's level and many low-level ones. My Lady, do you want me to start?"

A-9999 thought for a moment, "Start it and then released those cannibals to grow and multiply between goblins and cut off every news about this. Let humans live in delusion for now.

"We'll secretly create a farm of cannibals. You, trolls will be a mist to cover this farm. I'm going to personally oversee the further research on cannibal."

The Prime Minister's eyes lit up and quickly agreed, "I understand. We'll start working post hastily. But what if humans decided to attack us? Now that an A-rank appeared among them, they will be bolder and unafraid!"

"Heh, they'll be delivering the blood themselves, then. No, this is perfect!" A-9999 eyes shimmered with ghastly light, "I heard these humans can quickly adapt to changes, right? Since an A-rank appeared amidst them, more will follow in his footsteps. It means we'll get more high-level blood!

"I want those humans to start another war in confident, but we'll be manipulating behind them while letting them think they are the ones in control and getting an endless supply of human blood!"

The Lionheart City, lion street, the Tyrant Mansion.

Yes, the mansion where Jacob lives is now known as the Tyrant Mansion by everyone.

The tyrant mansion had gone through some changes in the past three days.

One could see many small bunkers in the vast garden of the tyrant mansion, while the backyard was now completely covered in a doom-like shade and blocked everyone's vision.

The only way in was either from the mansion or by creating a hole in the shade which no one would dare.

Furthermore, in these past three days, many high-ranking officers of the Lionheart City came to pay a visit, but they were rejected at the main gate.

Among these rejected officers, the city lord, the mercenary branch's leader, the vice leader, the gunsmith guild leader, and even the beautiful apothecary guild leader rejected with many other nobles.

However, no one dared to show any displeasure, and they politely left after leaving some greeting gifts. Even Samuel's heart was crushed by Silver Tyrant, and Alice was turned into a slave. They didn't want to antagonize such a person unless they wanted an ending like those two famous figures.

The Gunsmith Guild Leader Drew was feeling the most complicated among everyone because he had spent some time with Jacob, and he benefited the most from him when he let him take the credit for Magnum.

Now that he thought about how he once wanted to protect Jacob, he laughed in self-mockery and even felt fear when he thought about how Jacob had killed Samuel.

As for the Vice Guild Leader, Olaf, who schemed against Jacob, he had long vanished from the lionheart city the very night news about Jacob being an A-rank expert surfaced.

Lastly, the Star Mercenary Agency's leader had already found out about Jacob's registration with them. He was thrilled and wanted to approach Jacob and form a connection, but was rejected mercilessly.

The last person who was effective by Jacob's identity as an A rank was none other than Rose of the Lionheart family.

When she thought about how she tried to be bold with Jacob and even wanted to use him as a meat shield, she nearly had a mental breakdown. Right now, she was hiding, while in constant fear Jacob would come one day and make her his slave. Her father still didn't know about me,t or he would have a heart attack.

As for the man who was the eye of the storm, the Silver Tyrant, Jacob did not know about what was happening because of him in an entire uncommon region. Even if he'd known, he would've merely scoffed since he had already anticipated this.

Right now, he was currently sitting on a stone platform in the middle of the newly built pool and just crossed the threshold of 20-G force, and the oxygen in the water again got absorbed in his body's pores.

He now felt it even more clearly than before, and all of a sudden Jacob felt a strange sensation that was still hard to describe, and not only that, but his heartbeat started to rise as more oxygen entered his body.

'So, it can indeed raise my heartbeat without me using some excessive method.' Jacob solemnly thought, 'But I never expected it would be this effective. As if this Water Meditation was created to practice fluid acceleration. Immortika also told me at that time that I would find a way very soon…'
