Cursed Immortality-Novel



When Jacob's star watch appeared on his wrist, a torrent of messages appeared, most of them were from Ellie, and a few of them were from Lucy. Not only that, but there were the mysterious Apocalyptic-S, Gunnar, and even another unfamiliar Star ID.

This was the first time he had used his star watch after entering the Epic Plains, and this result was quite unexpected as well as grave!

However, when another notification popped up, and he read it, his eyes went widened with disbelief before thick killing intent and fury surfaced in them.

"Alchemist Guild Notification: We hereby inform you with a heavy heart that You [Faceless Ancient] have been kicked out from the Alchemy Guild by your Bronze Inviter [Amiable Monk Fish (Vise Guild President)] and thereby banned from the Alchemy Guild unless you have a Golden Invitation!

"Ha… ha… haha haha!" Jacob suddenly burst into eerier laughter filled with murderous fury, "Excellent!"

The next moment, he stopped, and his eyes were extremely tranquil and icy.

Closing the notification, he checked the epic star news. He now wanted to confirm if what those trolls and many others were talking about was really true, and if it was, then why did those guys think he was a golden elf?

The moment he opened the Epic Star News, his expression went even chilly when he saw the very first news post.

"1. Star News by Rich Winter Lady (Epic Bank Manager)

"Star News: We are finally able to identify the culprit behind the terrorist attack on all living beings. He is one of the upper echelons of the notorious organization Killer Skull Society. His Star ID is [Faceless Ancient]!

"Tri-Wanted Order: The three hegemonies have officially launched a Tri-Wanted Order against this terrorist [Faceless Ancient], and all the Alive Cities are hereby on high alert, and the authorities there has full permission to detain and investigate any suspicious individual. So, we humbly ask for your corporation, and we can assure as long as you do nothing wrong, no harm will befall you. This Tri-Wanted Order will have remained until the terrorist [Faceless Ancient] is dealt with according to the law of the Life Faction!

"Epic Plains Bounty Order: [Picture of Faceless Ancient] (Attached Picture)

"1. 100,000 ZC for terrorist [Faceless Ancient] whereabouts!

"2. 1,000,000 ZC for terrorist [Faceless Ancient] dead body!

"3. 10,000,000 ZC for terrorist [Faceless Ancient] alive.

"[Bounty can be claim after the information or death of the target, or his detention is confirmed by the three hegemonies!]"

"2. Star News by Might-of-Destruction (Epic Alliance Chairman)

"Star News: … (Same as Rich Winter Lady)

"3. Star News by Amiable Wizened Monk (Epic Guild President)

"Star News: … (Same as Rich Winter Lady)

"4. Star News by Servant-Of-Epic-S

"Star News: The three hegemonies are slandering us by calling us 'Terrorists,' and Lord Faceless Ancient has never done something like this, and we will fully support him until his grand name is clear of these false accusations. Anyone who dares to go after Lord Faceless Ancient is the enemy of our Killer Skull Society!"

Jacob looked at the top three news, which was the same, about him and how they were planning to hunt him from all fronts, not to mention the bounty placed on him was simply too lavish for anyone to ignore it.

However, he couldn't help but sneer at the fourth trending star news, which was posted by some minion of the Killer Skull Society. Since they couldn't find him the hard way, they were probably trying to lure him using a soft approach.

Anyone would be swayed if the three hegemonies were hunting them like mad hounds. But Jacob was no longer concerned with any of this because he had suffered so much that he now felt numb to all this.

In the end, he just sighed and then closed the star news since he had already seen enough and also confirmed something else.

The picture attached to the bounty was him in his golden elf disguise, and it was taken when his eye was maimed. Furthermore, it was extremely simple to guess where and who had taken this picture because he had only shone his face like when his eye was maimed when he was at Dark Earl Castle!

Realization dawn upon him at this moment, 'So, that conniving dwarf had sold me to either Lucy or Ellie after he received some sort of bone from them. No wonder he put up that trap and even gave this picture of mine of them. Now it all made sense…'

Jacob didn't find it news that Hallberg had sold him out since he had already made him his enemy the moment he pulled the ship trap on him. If anything, it only confirmed that the connections of the Epic Plains run too deep, and no one was trustworthy in this place except for himself.

Afterward, Jacob saw the messages from the mighty figures of the epic plains.

Most of them were about the warnings and even threats that he should surrender and resolve it peacefully, and as long as he handed over his knowledge and became their loyal dog, there was a chance his life would be spared.

Even Gunner was guaranteeing his safety as long as he silently surrendered to him. At the same time, the threats were from Lucy and even Ellie before she kicked him out in a fit.

The most interesting one was from the Apocalyptic-S, though, just as he suspected it to be after he saw their star news post.

"Apocalyptic-S (Reply): If you are willing to hand over those rings, I can shelter you and even let you join the Killer Skull Society for the price of that technology you used to put those three pretentious hegemonies in their place! Remember, only I can help you now, and all your paths have been blocked!"

Then there was the new ID that Jacob had just found out its origin.

"Amiable Wizened Monk (New Message): I never thought I would have to message you in this sort of circumstances, and I personally prefer to meet you face to face before. But alas, fate is sometimes cruel, and our mistakes made us fall from grace even quicker than it took us to rose. I think Vise President has failed to appreciate your talent and even has a fault in your current situation. She even kicked you out without consulting me first, and this pains me deeply. So, to make amends for her mistakes, this old man is offering you a helping hand, and anytime you want and anywhere. I really hope this all could've been avoided, but I can't watch a talent like you destroy yourself. Although I'm going with the flow since I'm pressured by the Bank Manager and Alliance Chairman, I'm still willing to help in any way! You know how to reach me!"

Jacob looked at Nelsen's guilt-ridden and couldn't help but scoff with killing intent, "I'll be a fool ever to believe you guys!"
