Cursed Immortality

"Amiable Monk Fish wanted to send you a Projection Call!"

"Accept / Reject / Projection Setting!"

However, Jacob's frown lessened when he saw this call wasn't sent by using star privilege. But it was still the fact that this Amiable Monk Fish might be someone with equivalent star privilege as him since she was able to send him a call request.

'Don't tell me that woman is trying to play another trick to get me to join the bank?' He thought gloomily.

Still, he decided to accept the call since it would be far easier to predict the other party's motives and figure out what her ploy was with this call. He didn't change his blur setting, though.

As he accepted the call, he expected another blurry figure, but to his surprise, a veiled woman appeared, sitting behind a desk gracefully.

But what drew his attention was her purple smooth skin. Her blue eyebrows were like those of a fox, and those sky-blue cat eyes were filled with fiery vigor and a hint of cunningness. Although she looked like a human, she clearly wasn't.

Amiable Monk Fish spoke in her crisp voice, "How about you turn off this annoying blur before I give you the biggest opportunity of your life?"

Jacob almost disconnected the call when he heard this and questioned with a frown, "Who are you?"

It was the second opportunity he was receiving today, and truth be told, he was exasperated and wanted to stow away his star watch for good.

"Oh, my mistake." The Amiable Monk Fish seemed to understand her mistake before gracefully introducing herself, "I'm the Vice President of Epic Plains Alchemy Guild, Ellie, and you should be able to guess now why I contacted you, right?"

Jacob's eyes widened ever so slightly as he thought about something, "I presumed it was Miss Ellie who was behind my membership revocation from the Alliance?"

Now that Jacob thought about it, since this woman contacted him right after the Rich Winter Lady, then this means she also knew about him getting kicked out of the Zodiac Warrior Alliance. She might as well be the actual perpetrator.

But the Rich Winter Lady was still more terrifying than her since she could reach him before Ellie could, which shows the difference between the two.

Still, he was more restrained toward Ellie after knowing her identity as the Alchemy Guild Vice President. After all, he wanted to join this place, and he didn't want to fall out with the Vice President right off the bat.

Ellie didn't flinch as she instantly admitted it and coolly stated, "Of course. I lost 1 million ZC to free you from those brutes. Why aren't you thanking me? And you're still a blur!"

Speechless by her answer, he didn't know what to say.

'So, she's a self-centered bitch.' He frowned, and after thinking for a moment, he removed the blur, but he was still wearing his hood and mask.

"I never remember asking Vice President Ellie to pay for my revocation, nor did I say I was unconformable in the alliance. You were taking action on your behest." Jacob coldly replied.ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

Ellie's foxy eyes narrowed when she saw the black-clad masked figure, "Just like I watched in the video recording. You like to hide your face, huh?"

"I'm too unpleasing to eyes." Jacob impassively replied.

"Heh, I believe my eyes more. Anyhow, I know I took matters into my hands, which was unprofessional. But I saw your potential, and you are not made for fighting.

"Even though you would appear unstoppable in Extraordinary Rank. But the Epic Rank is completely different. Because in Epic Rank, you can either choose the Magic path or you can choose the Combatant path. Furthermore, what matters even more is the Bloodline and the type of bloodline."

Jacob's interest was finally piqued when he heard this, especially since magic and bloodline come into the picture.

"Can you elaborate on the last part?" He asked.

Ellie's eyes slid up as if she was smiling behind her veil. She said, "I can, as long as you join the Alchemy Guild as a Reserve Alchemist."

Jacob didn't answer immediately as he said, "I want to know the perks of Reserve Alchemist?"

"Everything is the same as the alliance. The only difference is your mission will be more inclined toward alchemy rather than fighting. Instead of Fighter Manual and Combat Techniques, you will have access to 'Alchemy Knowledge,' 'Alchemy Skills,' and 'Alchemy Techniques.'

"We pursued only the truth behind everything, and no one dared to come in our way. Even those brutes must be polite to us if they don't want poison instead of medicines. Hmph!" Ellie stated with full of pride and disdain.

Even Jacob felt Ellie had a point because the Alchemists were the crafters of weapons and medicines, and they controlled the biggest raw materials chains in any plains.

Although the alliance or the bank might be able to provide those things, the knowledge in Alchemy Guild's possession was a top-secret, just like the Fighter and Combat Manuals of the Alliance.

They can't be exchanged, and no one will dare to divulge their information to anyone, nor will someone dare to receive this information because if found there was only death awaits for any party involved.

Jacob then didn't ask any further as he had already decided to join the Alchemy Guild, and now he was thinking that getting out of the alliance was not bad at all.

"Alright, I'll accept your invitation and join the Alchemy Guild. This place suits me more anyway." He nodded in affirmation.

A glint of happiness flashed past Ellie's eyes as she happily said, "Very good. At least you know good from wrong. You will know soon that this was a life-changing decision.

"Don't worry, I will personally arrange for someone to send you toward the Epic Plains and then help you to increase your blood force, and if you perform well, a Wiser Type Epic Bloodline is not out of options either."

Jacob's squinted his eyes when he heard this!
