Cursed Immortality-Novel



Jacob suddenly thought that his situation was simply too fishy, and Ellie appeared dubious no matter how he scrutinized this.

First, the moment he appeared closer to the Epic Plains, Ellie somehow knew and contacted him post hastily. Second, she somehow seems to know beforehand that Bank is after his life, yet she only decides to reveal it after he comes to epic plains, not in a four-year time when he was still traveling.

"You say I'm not in a position to ask you this question, but I say I am because it appeared to me that you are afraid of me dying, which is quite a surprise since we don't know each other that well, nor I'm someone worth caring about.

"So, here's what I'm going to do. I'm going to call Miss Bank Manager and see if I can make her give up on killing me. If not, then I'll take my chance since it appears I can't trust anybody in this place!" Jacob coldly replied while he was looking at Ellie like a hawk.

Although he sounds arrogant, and it even appears he is not going to listen to Ellie at all. In fact, he was just fishing for clues about this entire situation.

After meeting with Captain Free Sword and his crew, Ellie and the Epic Plains seems quite insignificant in front of the true terror of Uniques. Furthermore, he now has an Advanced Epic Ship, which was more than enough to preserve his life.

If he had that rare ship, then he might've agreed to Ellie's help and won't dare to offend her, but right now, his only goal was to enter the Epic Plains and then take full advantage of those two years to prepare for worse.

While his body might not react in the same manner as his mind does, but it can only screw him in some special cases, and as long as the mind was not under anyone's control, everything was salvageable!

Ellie's eyes narrowed as they were icy. She uttered, "You'll regret it!"

With that, she cut off the call without even bothering to hear his reply.

Just when she cut the call, she looked ahead of herself, and Nelsen was right there smiling slyly as if he just won some sort of prize after cheating.

"Hmph! How do you know he'll react in this way and won't take my help?" Ellie asked with pursed lips as she looked at her father, who always gave her the creeps with his ability to predict almost everything.

Nelsen's smile widened, "Little girl, I told you, if you want to be like your old man, then you have to be patient and study hard, oh and also spend ample time with your Old man. But you refused, and now you have lost the bet and have to spend five days with me doing father-daughter bonding!"

Ellie's eyes went sharp like blades, "If you dare to do anything silly, I'll leave! But he didn't do one thing you say he would. He's going to contact that old Bitch!"I think you should take a look at

Nelsen chuckled as he shook his head, "He won't. He was just testing the waters. He wanted to know if you have some way to know his position or anyone else, as a matter of fact.

"He won't take the risk to alert his enemy as long as he wasn't sure if Lucy also had the ability to know his position, and if you hadn't cut the connected call when you did and continued to talk, he would've sensed that you might have something to do with this entire situation he's in.

"Now, he'll just presume whatever he wants to without any hard evidence and might hold some grudge and vigilance toward you, but so what? In the end, all we need him to do is come to the Epic Plains, and we'll be strangers.

"If he dies, then we won't lose anything, and if he succeeded, then we'll get everything. Now that you have alerted him, he'll make sure to keep an eye out for those scouts sent by dear old Lucy.

"All we have to do is make sure she won't find out about his entering the Epic Plains Star Ocean already, or she'll do anything to make sure he won't stop foot on the lands.

"Just give our scouts a signal to interfere the moment they sense something out of the ordinary going on, and if nothing goes wrong, you'll have the Scripture of Blank by the end of this week!" Nelsen confidently declared without any hint of doubt.

Ellie's eyes shimmered with a hint of ecstasy, "Let's hope you're right! But what do you want to do with him when he comes to the Epic Plains? You know, if he found out that we have played him like a fiddle, he'll hold a pretty solid grudge against me!"

Nelsen's smile suddenly turned cold as he uttered, "He's just a lucky commoner who has no idea just how deep the waters of Epic Plains run. Besides, with how careful he has been, I'm sure he'll know his place.

"In Epic Plains, without the spot or three hegemonies, no one can evolve and reach the apex, he's already banned from the Alliance, and once Lucy suffered that terrible loss because of him, she would rather kill him personally than let him join the mercenary agency.

"So now you tell me if you just happened to kick him out from the Guild as well. Do you think he has any way to flourish in the Epic Plains?" Nelsen questioned with a dark smile.

Ellie's eyes went wide slightly as she suddenly laughed, "Hahaha, old man, now I understand why even that old bitch Lucy didn't dare to show her arrogance around you and appeared all vigilance. You are simply too evil!"

"Now, now, this is not a way to call your Daddy. I'm nothing but a humble old dad who's looking after his little girl. One day, you'll understand once you have your own children and my grandchildren!" Nelsen grinned teasingly, which made Ellie instantly fly into a rage!
