Cursed Immortality-Novel

Unknown location, above the sky, was flying a two-meter gray eagle with a wing span of over five meters, flying at a terrifying speed.

On top of this eagle were standing two figures, without any fear of blowing away with the wind current. On the contrary, the wind seemed to be not even touched their bodies as if they were corporeal.

One was a tall, middle-aged man with purple skin and giving off a peaceful aura.

However, the purple skin beautiful woman with a fierce expression beside him, who had a great resemblance to him, was giving off a completely different vibe than him.

At this moment, the woman frowned slightly as she looked at her wrist, and a small projection with one notification appeared.

'Your Bronze Invitation (Faceless Ancient) has become a 1-Star Epic Alchemist!

'The Bronze Initiation Benefits (BIB) has been activated!

'Bronze Invitation Benefits: You (Amiable Monk Fish) will now receive 40% of Faceless Ancient earnings made through the Alchemy Guild channels. You have the right to issue 3 Guild Missions every year to Faceless Ancient. You have the right to revoke the Faceless Ancient bronze invitation anytime by paying a 10 Million ZC process fee.

'(NOTE: The Bronze Invitation Benefits are only valid from 1-Star Epic Alchemist to 9-Star Epic Alchemist Rank!)'

A hint of surprise flashed past Ellie's blue eyes, reading the invitation, 'So fast? It seemed I had underestimated this guy. Not only was he capable of robbing and snatching #1's guild leader position eighteen months ago, but his alchemy talent is also top-notch.

'He's far superior to #1 to #11. But he's also quite rebellious and might hold it against me if he knew what the bronze invitation actually was. Although I didn't waste my bronze invitation on him, he's not like those obedient dogs.

'I have to put a tight leash on him once he comes here and show him the true difference between rare plains and epic plains. Once he's completely under my control, he'll earn me big profits.'

Calmness returned to her eyes as the small projection vanished.

However, she was startled when Nelsen was looking at her with this amusing grin on his face.

He said teasingly, "Hehe, my little girl, who are you scheming against this time? Tell your daddy quickly."

Ellie threw a fierce punch right at his face with pursed lips, "Get out of my face, old geezer!"

However, Nelsen kept grinning and wasn't panicked by that punch at all. He merely moved his finger between his face and the punch, and the powerful punch was instantly stopped in its track.

Nelsen sighed ruefully, "You're so willful and brutal. You even punched your old daddy and tried to kill him? Sometimes I even wonder if I have birthed a wolf…"

"Shut up! And get out of my face before I kill this little rid of yours!" Ellie instantly snapped as a powerful aura started to release from her.

The eagle suddenly trembled in fear as if he understood what Ellie just said.

Nelsen knew when to stop with his little shenanigans, so he stood straight again and clicked his tongue in annoyance, "Tsk, tsk, can you stop with threats of destroying my things? You were so cute when you were little."

Ellie pursed her lips and spat, "If I don't threat you with your things, you don't know when to stop with your childish behavior!"

"Heh, but you know I love my baby girl the most," Nelsen said matter-of-factly.

"Hmph, this won't work anymore!" Ellie snorted, but the coldness in her eyes visibly lessened.

Nelsen merely chuckled as he knew Ellie the best, "Alright, tell me, is that really BIB there? And you used it on that Faceless Ancient you were telling me about?"

Ellie didn't hide it since she knew there was no point in hiding it since Nelsen wasn't a fool as he always pretended to be, and he could easily see through her.

"Yes. It is the same person."

"Did he ask you what a bronze invitation was or just accept it without asking any questions?" He asked again.

"He asked me, and I didn't tell him what it was. What it had to do with anything?" She questioned with somewhat narrowed eyes. She knew Nelsen wouldn't ask so many questions unless he wasn't interested in the topic.

Especially if a stranger from Rare Plains was involved.

"You did well by not telling him. Or he would never have accepted your invitation." Nelsen chuckled as he commented.

"Do you know something?" Ellie's interest was now piqued.

"How about you tell me how much you love your daddy, and I'll tell you ten." Nelsen instantly pulled his mischievous grin again.

Ellie's serious expression was replaced by exasperation, and she threw a vicious kick at Nelsen's rear, but it was again blocked by Nelsen's finger.

"Hahaha… I got you again!" Nelsen guffawed again.

However, he quickly said when he saw Ellie was really going to cast a spell on the eagle, "Alright! Stop! I'll tell you!"

Ellie then gave him a death glare but still stopped, but she was circulating the magic on the tip of her fingers, clearly ready to use a spell the moment Nelsen pulled his nasty smile.

Nelsen sighed ruefully, "I truly spoil you rotten! OK, stop, I'm telling you! It's about Lucy!"

Ellie, who was about to throw a spell without caring about the height, instantly stopped when she heard that name.

"What about that tramp?" She asked with a dangerous glint in her eyes.

Nelsen sighed in relief when he saw she finally stopped and revealed without getting derailed this time.

"From my sources, I heard the official members of the bank in the rare plains are getting restless and guess the place of their activities?"

Ellie asked with squinted eyes, "Dark city?"

"Not just dark city but the inner circle of the dark city, and all the activities are happening right around our alchemy guild in there!" Nelsen coolly revealed.

Ellie was surprised since she merely shot a blind arrow, but she never thought it would hit the bullseye!

"Don't tell that old tramp is after Faceless Ancient? But why? And how did she know about him anyway? Are you tricking me?" She was extremely intelligent, and she easily guessed that it was about Jacob since the topic started with him.

Nelsen chuckled, "I don't have any reason to sow discord between you two when I know you guys are like fire and water. She most likely after him. I think it's time I tell you another thing about this Faceless Ancient character!"

Ellie was stumped by this!
