Cursed Immortality-Novel

Jacob looked at the swamp of incoming messages from Important Grace34 as if that guy had gone bonkers in anger by losing those skulls. There were all kinds of offers to make him give up the research data.

They were even willing to let him join their ranks, which Jacob would never agree to because he didn't want any kind of chip inside his brain, and neither he would trust his enemy.

So, in the end, Jacob muted the annoying prick since the block option wasn't present and then try to store the star watch inside his pendant to see if that reset message will appear or not.

Because anything stored in the infinity pendant will remain as it is when the time it was stowed like time stops, whether it was living or nonliving.

And just as suspected, no reset message appeared, neither he got any more messages from Important Grace34.

He mused that it was probably because the star network couldn't detect the star watch and connection with it, nor the star watch. So, as long as it was stowed in the infinity pendant, no one will be able to trace him even if this watch was traceable.

Furthermore, he could summon it on his wrist directly, and it appeared as it was when it was stowed away.

After doing some more tests, he stowed away the other star watches because they were freaking expensive. When he tried to see their prices, he discovered that this model A-11 wasn't even on sale.

He could only find a model A-09 which considers the latest model in rare plains with a price tag of 500 million gold coins and it did not have a camera function!

So, Jacob knew if he put these star watches on sale, then he could instantly become a billionaire.

After he was done with the matter of star watch and the loot, it was time to start the final injection!

Jacob looked at the warm injection in his hand which was filled with the heart essence of an earth goblin.

"What irony. I started the injection process with a fucking goblin, and now I'm ending it with another goblin. I wonder if the goblin race is my lucky charm or if I'm just their nemesis of sorts." Jacob ridiculed himself with a bitter smile before his expression turned stern.

"This is definitely going to hurt and I might enter over 5X acceleration while crossing the 30% altogether. I know I should've done it in steps, but any rare heart will give me at least twenty percent, so adding another ten won't make much difference.

"Let's cross this last hurdle, and get a hundred years of youthful life and move on."

After giving himself a pep talk, Jacob placed titan tears jars in front of him just in case he needed energy, and then took a deep break before his hand moved with the metal syringe.

The next moment, the metal syringe was completely pierced into his heart, and warm heart essence started to submerge within his heart.

Thereupon, Jacob waited for the pain to come, but to his surprise, he felt only a warm strange energy coursing through his body. He knew this energy appeared right at the end of his last injection.

Although he was glad that the pain didn't come, he didn't let his guard down since it might be just the calm before the storm.

As time passed, more and more of this energy started to simmer in Jacob's body little by little before it completely filled every part with him, and the whole process lasted for two hours.

Yet, Jacob did not know about it as he was calm and didn't lose himself in this wonderful feeling.

But the moment his body was completely brimming with this strange energy, his heart rate suddenly sped up, and that energy started to gather into his heart, or more accurately, it was getting absorbed by it!

If someone cut open Jacob's chest, they would be shocked because at this moment a pitch-black haze was surrounding Jacob's heart as it beat wildly.

Furthermore, the infinity-cursed mark within Jacob's heart was glowing darkly, as all that dark haze was getting absorbed by it. Not only that but as the haze was getting absorbed, the infinity-cursed mark's exterior was expanding while the symbol remained of the same size.

For the first time, Jacob felt the condition of his heart, as he could feel something gently gripping and engulfing it.

As a result, Jacob didn't feel any pain but emptiness, as if something was stripping away from him slowly. Although he didn't know what it was, he could tell it was something essential, something that was part of his very being.

However, within this feeling of emptiness and loss, there was also something that was slowly being born.

At this moment, Jacob lost the concept of time and his surrounding, he was completely submerged in that strange emptiness.

Right at this moment,

"why... do you seek…. Immortality…"

"You'll be alone… empty… despite… hated… villain"

"Give up… give up… stop… stop…"

"Turn… around… stop… now… stop…"

A faint voice started to ring into Jacob's mind like an alarming bell.

"Come join… me… come…."

"You… promise… promise…"

All of a sudden, Jacob's body started to flutter before dark blood gushed out from his orifices. Despite this ghastly scene, Jacob was completely expressionless as his eyes were completely closed like he was unconscious.

At this moment, the dark infinity pendant on his neck suddenly glowed in the dark sheen before the white infinity symbol in the black ring started rotating while emitting a faint white glow.

Immortika's perplexed voice rang at this moment, "Old dog ??? don't even think about it!"

The next moment, the snake's eyes of the infinity pendant lit up before the white sheen from the spinning infinity symbol suddenly engulfed Jacob. As a result, the dark blood and his oscillation stopped, and he seemed stable again.

Immortika's eerily guffawed rang in the cave, but it was filled with rage and hatred.

"Damn ??? this time I'm not going to sleep ever, I'm done playing with your rules… hahahahaha…"

"Rumbled…" A deafening thunderclap suddenly rang outside the cave at this moment.

However, Immortika eerily laughs and never stopped. In contrast, it became even more exasperating!

---

A day and night passed by before Jacob's eyelids trembled slightly as he opened, his amber eyes gleaming in a golden hue. He suddenly frowned when he saw a faint white mist in the cave and a distinctive refreshing scent in the air.

"What happened? Did I fall asleep just now?" Jacob's eyes shone in confusion since he clearly remembered being in the middle of absorbing heart essence, and everything else was a blur before he just opened his eyes.

He clearly did not know what had transpired when his mind was in an unconscious state

Nevertheless, Jacob paid little attention to it since there were more pressing matters at hand.

"Did I succeed?" Jacob looked at his body, and his eyes went wide suddenly because he was butt-naked. Not only that but his bonny body was now filled with carved muscles, and his pale white skin was glossy.

"What the hell happened?"

Jacob was completely bewildered because he was wearing his black clothes made with tiger bull's hide, but now they were completely gone, and he looked like he took a beauty bath.

However, he was even more baffled when he saw the jars will titan tears were completely empty, as well as the four meat skewers!

Only the equipment and the cold stone stove with wood ashes remained in the cave.

Jacob was completely spooked for a moment before finally noticing, "I'm not feeling any hunger?"

He then again looked at his muscular tone body and then at the empty stove and jars, and a strange possibility surfaced in his mind, 'Could it be all those things got absorbed into my body somehow when I was asleep? Is this some kind of special effect of reaching 100%? Heck, did I even reach 100%? How much time has passed?'

Jacob then stood up and found his eye level had increased by three or four inches and the surrounding colors seemed brighter and more precise. He could also feel just how powerful he had gotten as he clenched his fists, making cracking sounds.

But he did not know just how much power he had gotten.

Jacob then donned the full-body black armor he looted. This armor was quite comfortable and was made with a flexible material that completely fit him.

After getting dressed, Jacob finally opened the cavern's mouth, and the bright sun greeted him, which made his eyes narrow. 'I clearly remembered when I started the process and closed the cave mouth. It was evening? Don't tell me I slept for over twelve hours or even more. Only one way to find out!

'If it appears, then it means I was in that state for over one day, and if it did not, then this means it's only been less than a full day.'

Jacob's eyes turn sharp. "Cursed Immortality!"
