Cursed Immortality-Novel

"Might-Of-Destruction: You are not qualified to be in Zodiac Warrior Alliance!"

A thick vein popped up on Jacob's temple as naked killing intent, which could make even an Epic Rank Begin shudder, enveloped the entire apartment. It was a while since Jacob felt a genuine urge to kill someone before torturing them.

But for some reason, the anger gradually started to lessen like a breeze before Jacob was tranquil, which was even more terrifying than his angry self.

pαпdα`noνɐ1`сoМ He didn't know if this was the effect of his new heart, but now, feeling such as shock, fear, anger, excitement, and such no longer remained for long before he returned to his tranquil state.

Whatever the case was, Jacob was quite satisfied with this kind of effect since this lessened the chances of him making rash decisions and keeping his calm all the time.

Still, this didn't mean he was not bloody for Gunner anymore. On the contrary, he was going to remember this for as long as he could live.

Eventually, he was going to the epic plains, and he would also reach the peak of that plain if everything went smoothly, and when that happened, he'll make sure to personally ask Gunnar if he was qualified or not.

Jacob closed the mail and then looked at the previous notification, and just as he expected, this notification was an alert of his being kicked out of the Zodiac Warrior Alliance, and his membership and all the benefits with it were revoked, except for his already earned ZC and bank account.

His identity badges, the alliance mission application, private servers, everything was now unavailable to him. This only intensified his urge to torture Gunnar even more.

In the end, he sighed ruefully and closed the alert notification, and equipped a new identity badge which was the Grandmaster Rank Badge he earned from the guild a few hours ago.

'Something is not right with this sudden act of foolishness. If he was holding a grudge, why not kick me out the same day? Or he was just toying with me by giving me false hope before shattering it when I was close to becoming an official member? But he didn't strike me as someone with patience who could hold their anger in. Well, whatever the case, I just hope he won't die before I seek the answer to this question.'

Although getting kicked out of the Alliance was quite a letdown and cutting off his path toward the alliance resources. But he quickly got over it when he thought about how he wasn't even able to get access to magic knowledge in the alliance because he didn't have mana.

On the contrary, if he thinks about it more carefully, he can now join the Alchemy Guild since he is no longer a permanent member of the Zodiac Warrior Alliance.

Because the guild was filled with all kinds of knowledge about magic and technology, and even the alliance wasn't matched for the guild when it came to knowledge.

Although Jacob had killer instincts, he was also a researcher by heart, and this world was filled with wonders and unknowns, which made him equally curious about gaining immortality.

Fighting skills and gaining strength was important, but having knowledge was equally important, just like what happened with the Fantastic Insects. If he had known before, he won't be in the dark about Immortika's true intentions.

Jacob knew he had the chance to join the Guild since he was the youngest Senior Grandmaster ever to appear in the Rare Plains. Since Nixon could invite him from the freedom plains, he was sure someone in the Dark City would definitely invite him unless they were blind.

After concluding that the Alchemy Guild suits him even more than the Zodiac Warrior Alliance, he quickly got over this sudden bad news, and with a hint of anticipation, he again immersed himself in his reading even more seriously.

However, he was again disturbed by another unexpected popped-up interface which made him narrow his eyes in scrutiny.

"Rich Winter Lady wanted to send you a Projection Call!"

"Accept / Reject / Projection Setting!"

"(NOTE: Rich Winter Lady has used Star Privilege to send an unignorable Call Request. Rich Winter Lady Star Privilege is higher than You (Faceless Ancient), Notification can't be ignored, Star ID can't be blocked!)"

'Someone with at least 2-Star Privilege contacting me again and right after I got kicked out of the alliance? Interesting.' Jacob's lips curled up in a cold smile as he accepted the call with a blurry black protection setting.

He was quite fond of this feature since it could keep his identity secret and also annoy the other party, and reveal prick-like personalities such as Gunnar.

The moment he accepted the projection call, a golden blur materialized over his wrist. A melodious voice rang soon after, "Faceless Ancient, on behalf of Universal Zodiac Bank, I, as the Bank Manager, personally invite you to be a Permanent Member!"

Jacob was astonished by this woman's direct and straightforward approach as well as the unexpected invitation from the Universal Zodiac Bank, which should be the name of the existence behind the Zodiac Taurus Bank.

Furthermore, this woman had the same status as Gunnar, and her timing could be said impeccable because she directly invited him without beating around the bush, which also means she knew he had been kicked out of the alliance and was a permanent member before.

As long as Gunnar wasn't bragging about kicking a nobody like Jacob on the star news, then the only possibility was this was some kind of ploy by this woman, or Gunnar was also involved in this.

He coldly asked without caring about the other party's identity, "Are you the one behind my membership revocation?"

Rich Winter Lady unexpectedly answered without hiding anything, "The Zodiac Warrior Alliance won't deserve a talent like you, nor President Gunnar appreciate your true worth.

"He sold your revocation for 1 Million ZC. The Alliance is only a place for brutes who only know how to fight or increase their strength at all cost, even if they had to sell their kin for it."

Jacob couldn't help but sneer, "You make it sound so dirty. Quite a hypocrite for the one who paid for someone's future like it were a measly item."

His voice turned icy cold, "Do you really think just because you paid him to kick me out, I will jump on your lap like some fucking dog? Or do you think of me as a slave which you purchase from some bollocks?"

Rich Winter Lady didn't seem to be angry at all. She replied in the same impassive tone, "Mr. Jacob Steve, I think you have some misunderstanding in this matter. I wasn't the one who paid for your membership revocation!"
