Cursed Immortality

Nelsen's aura stirred vigorously as he glared at Jacob with fury, but he was still sane enough not to attack Jacob when they were in the champion space.

Furthermore, attacking Jacob would only make things worse for himself because he couldn't see through his power level the moment he laid his eyes on Jacob, even with his unique visual ability.

That's why he wanted to provoke him into attacking, as SAAI would instantly react, and he could get rid of him.

However, the tables have turned, and he never saw it coming. It could've been fine if he was alone, but all this happened in front of his enemy, which revealed his weakness, and now Jacob can easily take full advantage of it. He knew because he would.

Now, he even regrets clearing this trial condition. Not only did he double-cross the King of Dead, he ended up exposing himself to an enemy like Jacob. Moreover, when Lucy and his other enemies discover this, they will not let him go either.

Suddenly, he felt immure and under dangerous pressure for the first time in many years and started to think of countermeasures.

At this moment, SAAI continued without caring about their personal disputes.

"The rewarding ceremony shall continue!

"Faceless Ancient and Amiable Wizened Monk, you both belonged to the life faction and as collective Champion of Epic Plains Trials, you have One Time right to activate the Life Zone for 500 Years by forfeiting half of your accumulated reward!

"Please choose whether you want to activate the Life Zone.

"Both parties need to agree within 499 seconds, or the choosing right will be voided!"

"I disagree!" Jacob instantly scoffed. He had no reason to forfeit his rewards for these selfish mongrels, not to mention this would also give Nelsen and his people all the time to focus on him.

Although he wasn't afraid anymore, he wasn't foolish enough to believe he was the strongest in epic plains. He had learned his lesson in the rare plains.

Nelsen suddenly said as his tone was impassive, and it didn't seem like he was angry at all, "I'm willing to give up my right to the final condition to you. All I want in return is for you to sign a non-aggression Zodiac Oath Contract with me for 1000 Years."

Jacob was astounded when he heard this unexpected proposal from a man who was enraged to the extreme and lost his power. He had to admit Nelsen was probably the most terrifying man he had encountered after coming to Zodiac Plains.

"Is it even possible to do it?" Jacob asked with uncertainty.

He might disagree if it was anything else, but if he could get the final condition cleared, didn't this mean he could get back his chance to earn the Unique Star Ocean Medallion!

This was his goal, to begin with, and that's why he had taken all that risk. He was even going to torture Nelsen later to beat another method to enter the Unique Plains out of him. But he never expected Nelsen would propose such a deal, or it was even possible.

"No, only as long as the champions are from the same faction. I'll send this condition clearance message to you and give my verbal consent to SAAI; the right of the condition clearance will also be transferred to you. You can be the sole champion and reap all the rewards of it, especially the Unique Star Ocean Medallion. The way towards the Unique Plains, I have a feeling that you wanted that, and that's also why we want to stop you." Nelsen stated.

Jacob's eyes narrowed as he wasn't surprised that these guys knew about Unique Star Ocean Medallion.

"Is there a specific reason for your desperation?" He asked.

"I can't tell you. Now, are you agreeing to this deal or not?" Nelsen coldly questioned.

Jacob ignored Nelsen and asked, "SAAI, what Nelsen just said, is it possible?"

"Affirmative!"

Jacob then looked at Nelsen and suddenly smiled, "1000 years is too long. I might not even live that long. All I can agree to is 10. I won't come after you in this period of time."

Nelsen eyes narrowed, "Are you joking? Five hundred years or no deal."

Jacob shrugged his shoulder, "Alright, no deal it is. I'll have to hunt you and your daughter down the moment I leave this place. Let's see how far you can run, and I won't stop until I see your ashes." His voice sounded like a demon who would do anything to achieve his goal.

Nelsen felt a chill down his spine when he heard those words. He gritted his teeth and said, "100 years!"

Jacob didn't think before saying, "10 or no deal."

"Just why are you doing this?" Nelsen asked through gritted teeth.

"Heh, I think you know the answer to this question." Jacob snickered coldly. He knew a guy like Nelsen would have a grasp of everything happening around him, especially his daughter. He was most likely involved in Ellie's schemes against him.

Nelsen took a deep breath as he never expected Jacob to be so hard to deal with, and he wasn't confident in getting away in a short amount of time. He was being so desperate because he was afraid Jacob would launch more White Sun Missiles in his direction. He wasn't afraid of his individual strength; he was afraid of Jacob's weaponry!

"20 years, and I'll add an extremely unique universal magic scripture that can be used with all elements. You won't scheme or target me or my daughter for 20 years or use your weapons anywhere close to us as long as you know we are there or even have a little notion of it.

"This is my bottom line. If you still do not agree, then let's see who has the last laugh. Although I admit I might not be your match when it comes to hiding or strength, I'm not someone who will go down without at least taking a limb or two."

Jacob looked deeply at Nelsen, and at this moment, he saw madness in his eyes, 'So, he's really at the end of his tether, huh? I have to admit, letting him go would be pretty troublesome.

'But I can't ignore Unique Star Ocean Medallion. Revenge is not as important as pursuing immortality. Twenty years are enough for me to gain strength; he won't be my match then or not in the same plain. I might even forget about his insignificant existence.'

"Alright, I agree with that. But you also can't do anything to me or tell anyone about what happened here today." Jacob stated.

Nelsen secretly sighed in relief as his eyes shimmed in a peculiar light, and he nodded, "I agree!"
