Cursed Immortality-Novel

Jacob opened the first bag, which was the cleanest of the three leather bags he got, and it was from Kiana who wasn't dead and 'intact' when he took it.

However, when he saw the content, he frowned; there were two sets of women's clothes, makeup, and even a bottle of scent. Other than that, he found fifteen colt bullets and a small pouch with ten silver coins and 48 bronze coins. These coins were the same as he got from Decker.

"She deserved what happened to her," Jacob mumbled, annoyingly. He stored away the bullets and coins and throw everything else aside.

Then he opened Gus's bag which holds, a pair of new hunter cloths, a machete knife, 35 colt bullets, and a money pouch that holds, 64 silver coins and 12 bronze coins. There was a silver insignia.

Lastly, he opened Arian's bag, and this guy was caring two machete knives, a leather map, 42 colt bullets, another money bag with 23 silver and 75 bronze, and the last thing which make Jacob delighted, a revolver with 12 extra bullets for it!

Jacob quickly examines the revolver. "It's another crude imitation of Enfield Revolver, but its length is 13 cm in and cartridge .576 which also increased its caliber to .576 as well, and effective firing range has increased up to 35 yds.

"All these firearms were used between the 19th and 20th centuries in my world, and they're not at their peak yet. Could it be this world technology is only at this level? But how is this possible, well, I have to see for myself!"

Jacob stored away the revolver and other small things, except for the map.

The map wasn't as detailed as he was hoping for, but it was marked by Arion neatly, which Jacob appreciate.

'If I keep moving north, I'll reach Gloria Country border, and these people were also from there and this map only denoted a small part of the rainy mountain range and Gloria Country. Well, it's enough for me...' Jacob smiled in satisfaction before he stored the map away as well.

Now his eyes landed on the three rifles as they shone with ingenuity, 'I hope I didn't lose my touch…'

With that, Jacob started to dismantle the three rifles and modified them with his peak skills.

The Gloria Country was a small part of the human kingdom, and it was under the jurisdiction of a baron.

There were four big cities in Gloria's country and many small towns.

The closest town to the Rainy Mountain Ranges was a mid-size town named 'Rain Town' and many hunters who make their living with hunting or others who enjoy hunting as a hobby first come here for supplies.

That was why this town was always lively and filled with armed people all year long.

However, this was also the reason for this town's high crime rate, and no one wanted to offend anyone without no good reason.

Because here just a normal-looking person can be from a noble household and in Gloria Country, if you offend a noble you won't meet a good ending.

Nevertheless, all this has nothing to do with this newly arrived handsome man, with long silver hair, he was wearing a hunter outfit while a revolver hung on his belt.

He was none other than Jacob, who has cleaned himself up and wore the hunter outfit he found in Gus's bag. After scrutinizing the small town for an hour, he noticed many were wearing the same outfits and caring firearms openly, without any restrictions.

So, he does the same, but he only showed his revolver because he didn't see anyone caring a rifle, and he mused those guys were from some rich family, and it would be troublesome if someone suspected anything.

Now he looked just like the others, besides his unusual hair color, but no one seemed to be interested in him as he passed the unguarded town gates.

'They're quite lax.' Jacob smiled as he curiously observed the town, which looked like the town from the middle 18s, and his guess about humans being so inferior in technology became even more substantial.

But this also means he can't get what he wanted here, not the liquid or any equipment in Decker's lab. He suddenly felt that shithole might be the biggest boon he received from Decker, but it was gone in smoke because of his own mistake.

However, he didn't have the time to remanence about his past mistakes. He found a middle-aged man who wasn't wearing a hunter outfit and was normally dressed.

He politely asked, "Sir, can you please tell me where I can find a bookstore or healing medicine?"

Jacob didn't find any kind of medicine in Gus and others' bags, so he was quite curious about this, and he also wanted to find the liquids as soon as possible for Pig Head, who he hid in the forest far away from the town.

The man was startled when he heard Jacob calling him and asking such a question, he became scared for some reason and replied with a trembling voice, "I… please forgive me, Sir, I-I'm just an ordinary mason, and we don't have such a luxury to afford any medicine. So, I c-can't help you."

Jacob frowned slightly, and he could tell from this man's facial expression that he was extremely afraid of him and also telling the truth. His heartbeat also increased rapidly when he saw Jacob's frown.

"Thank you." Jacob let the man go. He was afraid this guy might start to cry if he held him longer, and he didn't want to cause a commotion.

'Strange, he knew about the medicine, but he can't afford it? It seemed I still have to investigate more, and I should talk with a hunter since these natives seemed to be afraid of hunters. I won't get anything out of them.'

Jacob moved on and this time his eye landed on an old building, which was a pub, and suddenly remembered drinks.

With a hint of anticipation, he entered the pub in large strides!
