Chapter 2327: Memory of Greed III

The strange entity that is has the same silhouette as Adrian transformed into an entity that even he could not make out. The familiarity with this strange entity is evident though as he did not find it weird. The only thing that shocked him is that this entity suddenly ate the remnant will of the Primordial Beast of Greed and vanished.

”Did I just devour a skill from a remnant will? No, maybe it is due to the fact that technically defeated it inside my own subconscious where it was released. I will think about this later as the memories of the remnant will are more important.” Adrian stated as he continued to look at the screens present in his subconscious.

The memories that he first saw are the most recent ones and that is of the plan to take over Piggy Bankʼs role as the Branch Leader of the Avalon Merchant Guild. It seems that the organization where the Primordial Beast of Greed is working for has set its sights on the bounty of the Tree of Life and Death. The Primordial Beast of Greed basically wanted the leaves of the world tree as they call it because they do not know it is actually the Tree of Life and Death.

”They also sent some people to Neo Alfheim. I guess I should also warn the Evergreen guild of what is happening.” Adrian thought as he could still send messages via the player messaging system despite being in his own subconscious.

Adrian then proceeded to check the next memories that happened before the enemies arrived at the central continent. The memories played in reverse and Adrian had to be patient with it as any tampering that he does might destroy them. Fortunately, the memories were rather not as much because he learned that the living dead was freshly created for the trip to the central continent.

Adrian saw a hooded being radiating such powerful negative energy that is in front of the living dead body of Lady Goldenclaw. It is quite unfortunate that he could not see the face of this powerful necromancer, but he could already tell that this being is even more powerful than Creepysoo. This might be an immortal that cultivates the Forbidden Puppetry Art that is said to be taboo in the eastern continent.

Adrian knows of the taboo cultivation arts in the eastern continent because there are not that many. Also, one should immediately start to kill them should they find out that they use these taboo cultivation manuals. The reason it is taboo is due to the fact that they need human lives to perfect. Even the said unorthodox faction of the eastern continent condones such taboo practices.

Adrian watched as the memory reversed and finally saw what he wanted to verify. The man that is called Lord Goldenclaw appeared before the living dead. This man funneled some sort of energy inside of the head of the living dead. After doing so, the memories of the remnant finally stopped. This meant that the start of its memories only began when Lord Goldenclaw injected something to the skull of the living dead.

”So, the Primordial Beast of Greed is really the branch master of the eastern continent merchant guild. To think that one of my guesses is actually true but seeing it just confirmed it. I guess I should inform Piggy Bank about this as well. We do not know if it is just the eastern continent branch of the merchant guild that is compromised. The worst-case scenario is that the spies have already ingrained themselves in numerous territories.” Adrian muttered as he started to prepare to travel to the eastern continent.

”My remnant will is completely destroyed. The soul lamps of the ones defending my precious living dead body collection has been snuffed out as well. Has there been a report with the spies situated in the main merchant guild?” Lord Goldenclaw or rather the Primordial Beast of Greed asked one of his attendants.

”We do not have any news regarding the things that happened in the main merchant guild, my lord.” The attendant replied while shaking in fear.

”Did the Grand Merchant Leader return to the main guild today? That is the only being that I fear in the merchant guild.” The Primordial Beast of Greed asked.

”From the reports of our scouts in the western continent, the Grand Merchant Leader is still there amending the trust that was broken. We can only assume that this is the work of another entity that has learned or maybe chanced upon our plans.” An attendant with the eyes of a sleazy boar replied.

”What is the likelihood of them telling the enemies of what they know if they were to be captured?” The Primordial Beast of Greed asked.

”The likelihood is close to zero as their souls have been cursed prior to them being sent to the central continent. Should they even utter anything that is about us then the curse will trigger. The only way for the curse to not trigger is when they are basking in holy energy but that is not possible since the Merchant City of Mercado does not have a church.” The sleazy attendant replied.
