Cursed Immortality



Aven finally spoke with a hint of uncertainty, "Who are you?"

It was her and Frugal's first time adventuring, and they also knew the depth of their background. So, there was a chance that this person might be telling the truth. Not to mention, they refused to contact back because they wanted to prove their strength and independence to their overprotective mother.

This gave Jacob the opening to cause this opening!

However, Jacob had no idea about this as he was just playing a hazardous game because there was also a chance that those two had nothing to do with the Star Hackers and might be just using their name to draw the Dark Mistress's attention.

So, he said something that would also give the Giants a chance to play along if they really don't belong to the ATLAS.

"Hmph, let's talk inside, and then you'll tell me who your superior is!" Jacob sneered coldly as he walked. But he had to use the fluid acceleration to the maximum to do so because those two were still releasing their pressure on him.

He knew if he wanted to make them believe in his 'identity,' he had to show them that he wasn't weak at all but actually hiding his real strength.

Although it was pretty difficult, he didn't dare to show any weakness and slowly moved toward them. Their pressure was almost equivalent to the g-force he had experienced when he practiced the water meditation to succession.

That's why he could barely move with his fluid acceleration, which caused the giants to think that Jacob was hiding his true strength!

They no longer dare to underestimate him and let him walk inside and retract their pressures. Then they both looked at each with uncertainty and slight panic.

Frugal whisperingly said, "Mother does not send him?"

Aven replied with uncertainty in an equally silent tone, "I think so? Since he asked about our superior, it appeared he was not specifically here for us. I think there is a chance we could convince him not to report this, or we'll be in huge trouble!"

"What are you doing? Close the door and get your assess here!" Jacob's cold voice rang from behind as he was already sitting comfortably on a sofa.

"He's too arrogant!" Frugal complained angrily.

"Just bear with it. He's hiding his strength, and even our Fighter Eyes can't see through him. Which means he's stronger than we!" Aven gloomily replied before she closed the door and moved towards Jacob with her brother.

Jacob looked at the two cloaked giants sitting in front of him, 'Since they're behaving so submissively, it seemed by bluff has been successful!'

"So, tell me, why did you reveal your background to outsiders?" He asked.

Aven didn't reply but questioned instead, "First, tell us how you know us and prove your identity!"

They can't reveal everything to this stranger based on their doubts. If he was really a member of ATLAS, then he should have identity proof.

Jacob expected this much, and this was the most significant hurdle. If he could clear this, then those two would have to believe him whether they liked it or not.

The next moment, Vermin Transponder appeared in his hand, and he covered it with mana.

The moment those two saw it, their eyes widened, and Frugal blurted, "You have Vermin Transponder?!"

Jacob instantly stowed away the Vermin Transponder after Frugal identified it, 'So those two indeed belonged to the Star Hackers, or at least know their technology!'

"I can only show you this much, or you two should know if I revealed anything else, we all be at risk of getting caught by SAAI. Now, answer me, why in the world did you two fools use our name openly? Who is your superior?

"Do you know if I haven't killed that woman, you two would've been executed once she met you? Do you really think we don't have a way to track our people and monitor their activities?" Jacob coldly stated.

Now, Aven and Frugal are really starting to panic since they are now 90% sure that this person is their superior, and he even killed the City Lord. They finally started to understand why Dark Mistress hadn't contacted them and why there were so many patrols.

Furthermore, they had no idea their movements could be monitored because they still weren't true members of the ATLAS but only reserves. So, they had no way of knowing if Jacob was telling the truth or lying. But they do know that the ATLAS was an unfathomable organization.

Not to mention, if he was telling the truth, they had caused a massive mess for their mother.

Aven quickly stated with a changed tone, "S-sir, please, we admit our mistakes. But it has nothing to do with our superior. We were acting independently. We are ready to bear the full responsibility for our actions!"

Frugal nodded, "Yes, we will suffer the punishment for our own actions."

They didn't want to implicate their mother since they knew she would do everything to shield them, which won't be good. Although they were rebellious, they loved their mother just as much as she loved them.

"Heh, at least you two are honest." Jacob sneered, 'This is going way more smoothly than I had anticipated. They both didn't seem experienced at all and behaved like brats who had been caught doing a crime. Could it be they are inexperienced newcomers?'

For someone like him, it wasn't difficult to gauge someone's experience by their behavior, and those two were not behaving like someone with experience at all, and by adding their previous mistakes, it was quite clear that they were new to this.

This gave Jacob even more confidence in manipulating them to his wishes.

"I'm in charge of the Vile Witch Valley, and any member of the organizing instated here must first report to me. I was wondering why two greenhorns appeared and weren't informed beforehand.

"I was keeping an eye on you two and just happened to catch you making an unforgivable mistake," Jacob stated, which made the two giants' hearts sink.

Jacob devilishly smiled suddenly and said, "But, since I could intercept and you seemed quite inexperienced and loyal, I can overlook this and even help you with the Vile Witch Layer. But I want something in return!"
