Cursed Immortality

Chapter 908: Trouble Knocking on Door! (1)

In the depths of the Myriad Galaxy Palace, within a room, an ethereal scarlet mist was swirling around Elia, and their skin was covered in mysterious crimson runes.

A devilish symbol was shimmering brightly on her forehead, and as the scarlet mist was absorbed in those runes on her skin, a vague devilish image of half blazing sun and half moon was forming. 

This was the sign of a legendary soul totem formation, and Eliaʼs soul totem seemed to contain two different types of laws; the image of half sun and half moon was evident in it.

Soon, the image became solidified, as the half image of the blazing sun turned pitch black while the half moon was crimson as blood.

When the mist vanished and her blurry soul totem manifestation stabilized, the pressure of a Tier-1 Fable Legendary State Rank emitted from Eliaʼs delicate body, and this pressure contained evil and profound mysteries as if she had broken through a shackle and became free.

Her power seemed unmatched for a new fable legendary rank, and it was because of her dual law soul totem.

Elia finally opened her eyes, which shimmered with black and crimson light. The devilish mark on her forehead released terrifying intent.

”Law of Pride and Wrath…the Sin Curses of Pride and Wrath… and Curse Manipulation… I finally got the legendary section of the Liber Chaotica.” Ecstasy flashed past her eyes as she knew her hard work and suffering had paid off, ”Furthermore, the Legendary Vestige the Necromancer King gave me also opened a path for Death Law for me. Although Liber Chaotica didnʼt let it become the third law in soul totem, I can still practice it as my auxiliary law and become a necromancer. After all, the teacher has the entire inheritance for necromancy. I wonder if heʼll let me practice it…”

Elia wondered, although she wanted to learn Necromancy since it was fascinating, and the Cursed Necromancer King had also shown her great kindness despite his previous actions. But she knew why he did it, so she didnʼt hold any grudge against him since she could somewhat relate to him. He was just a pitiful person like her.

So, she wanted to learn Necromancy to pay homage to the Cursed Necromancer King and also because she knew she had a great affinity with it, primarily because of the Throne of Death, which was a supreme treasure of the Law of Death.

Nonetheless, she wonʼt do it if Jacob doesnʼt want her to since she respects him the most.

Afterward, she spends a few hours consolidating her prowess before she leaves the room to find Jacob and reveal her success to him. She imagined herself being praised by Jacob, which made her giddy. 

However, she soon discovers that Jacob is nowhere to be found, nor can she sense his presence, which she always does because of a strange connection between them.

Although she didnʼt know why she could do that, she never paid it much attention and thought because there was some affinity between them, and this was also the reason Jacob took her in and also the reason she respected him so much.

Nonetheless, at this moment, Elia didnʼt sense Jacobʼs presence, and despite roaming the palace, she didnʼt find anything, making her somewhat panicked.

Furthermore, because of the death of the Myriad Galaxy King, the palace was empty, and no one was allowed to enter without the legendary lordʼs notice. This was done to keep this fact about the kingʼs death a secret, and Jacob liked this idea.

But now, since Jacob was in the Infinite Space, Elia wasnʼt able to find him; in fact, no one can detect Jacob in the Infinite Space because it was the same as the Infinity Pendant Space.

Still, Elia calmed her heart as she muttered, ”Maybe Teacher has gone out to do something. He wonʼt abandon me…”

After thinking about this point, Elia calmed down and decided to return to her chamber and continue comprehending the legendary section of the Liber Chaotica.

But before she could take a step further, she felt something amiss as a sense of crisis overwhelmed her. Because of her special physique, she was very sensitive to malice, and now that she was a legendary rank, her physique was started to awaken, and she no longer her past self.

So, the moment she sensed the danger despite not seeing anything, without hesitation, she used her soul force to create a barrier around herself.

Just as the dark crimson barrier was formed, a claw suddenly appeared, intending to capture her. Still, it struck the barrier, and despite only being a physical attack without any soul force or magic, the claw contained massive power behind it, and Elia was sent flying!

”Oho, good reflexes, young one.” A surprised voice rang in the empty hallway, and a tall, handsome person walked out of the shadows as if one with them as he looked at Elia, who had suppressed the pain and quickly stabilized herself.

Eliaʼs heart raced with fear and apprehension as she looked at her assailant. He wore black robes and had long hair and pitch-black eyes, and Elia was surprised when she noticed the long, pointy ears of this person; it was an Elf, and from the attack, she had just blocked, she knew this person was far stronger than her.

Moreover, he had clearly not invited her and had snuck in, and his purpose of trying to immobilize her couldnʼt be clearer. He was here with malicious intent or was some enemy of the Myriad Galaxy King; in any case, he was her and her teacherʼs enemy!

”Who are you?!” Elia questioned while she secretly gathered her soul force.

But the elf didnʼt seem to be apprehensive; in fact, he seemed quite curious as he looked at Elia with a scrutinized glare, his lips curled up as he asked, ”Little one, which clan do you belong to and what are you doing here so far from home?”

Elia narrowed her eyes as she didnʼt know what this creep was talking about and retorted, ”I belonged to no clan. What is your purpose in infiltrating my teacherʼs quarters?”

”Teacher, huh?” The elf nodded thoughtfully as he asked, ”So, the Myriad Galaxy King is your teacher? How curious; no one knew anything about it. It seemed because you are unique, he hid your existence from everyone. Tsk, tsk, that old swindler sure has robbed our race of a talent…!”

The elf suddenly started emitting faint killing intent, making Elia shudder. At this moment, she instantly felt that this man was probably on the same level as her teacher or at least stronger than the Myriad Galaxy King!
