CURSED IMMORTALITY - Season 4 Episode 2

Looking at the gray disc in Jacob’s hand, the two giants frowned with unkind expressions since they found that disc extremely ordinary.

But they didn’t comment because, with Jacob’s current status, they didn’t think he would bring out such an insulting gift for the Dark Earl.

Furthermore, a magic treasure’s true worth could only be found when it was channeled with magic energy. Some magic treasures could appear extremely ordinary, and only a true alchemist could tell them apart with their discreet eyes.

As for Stone Hammer and Water Wave, they were not alchemists like Jacob and Hallberg, so they thought it was some kind of extraordinary treasure with special functions, and Hallberg might know what it was.

However, what they heard next made them astonished.

Hallberg looked at the disc curiously before he looked at Jacob and asked amusingly, “What kind of treasure is this?”

Jacob was looking at Hallberg’s eyes like a hawk all time as well as the giants’ reactions, and as long as these guys were at the terrifying level of hiding their true expression and controlling their eyes on a whim, he knew these three had no idea what this disc was.

‘So, it was just the killer skull society then. Or they might be involved and had never even seen this disc before. Or I’m simply thinking too much, and the society may be laying in wait outside the Dark City just in case I come back, and it has nothing to do with the dark city or the dark earl…’ Jacob thought as over half of his doubts related to his assassination about the Dark Earl vanished.

Still, it was a lost cause; unless he could read their minds or tell them about the assassins, he would not find anything this way.

Nevertheless, he decided to let it go for now as he should be focused on the main purpose he was for. Once he got what he needed, he would be long gone from the rare plains, leaving everything behind.

Furthermore, taking this disc out has another purpose. Jacob was curious about this thing himself, and he tried activating it, but there wasn’t any switch or activation sequence. So, he knew this disc was fueled by magic energy, which was quite frustrating.

Still, since he had two of them and he couldn’t seem to use them yet, he decided to show one to Hallberg as he heard he was also an alchemist and a very good one at that.

But he also seemed not to have seen it before he took it out.

“This is a special treasure that can help you take flight in the sky as long as you pour your magic power into it. As for its other functions, I’ll let you explore them on your own. Sometimes mysteries made things more attractive.” Jacob impassively stated as he put the disc in front of Hallberg.

“What? Such treasure exists in rare plains?” Hallberg’s eyes visibly twinkled when he heard about this fascinating treasure.

It was quite clear he really didn’t know about this disc, not to mention it was capable of taking flight. The Rare Plains didn’t have aircraft despite having cars which were quite strange in Jacob’s mind.

But he didn’t put much thought into it as it wasn’t his problem since he could move between the places just fine.

But these discs were quite novel since they could make people fly with magic power, and they could be very handy. Alas, Jacob couldn’t enjoy this luxury right now since he had the machine but no fuel to run it, which was quite frustrating sometimes.

Even those giants look quite intrigued by the description of this ordinary-looking disc.

“Just its function of flight is enough to make it a unique treasure in the Rare Plains, so Jack, I won’t reject this gift. But it’s too precious, so don’t hold back if you need anything from me.” Hallberg happily stated as he picked up the disc, and he was astounded when he found just how lightweight it was.

“Alright, let’s eat first before I try it out. I can’t wait.” Hallberg stowed it away, and Jacob didn’t reject his arrangement, and he felt it was worth trading that one disc if he could get materials from Hallberg.

The mask maidservants were waiting for Hallberg’s exact words and started to serve.

All of a sudden, everyone looked at Jacob, who was concealing his appearance even more meticulously than Hallberg.

Jacob sensed the atmosphere as it was quite clear if he wanted to eat, he had to reveal his face, but he didn’t do so just because he was under the spot.

He turned his face toward Hallberg and said meaningfully, “Shall we?”

Hallberg wasn’t a fool, as he knew what Jacob was implying. He was clearly asking him to remove his mask as well, which was quite audacious of him.

Still, Jacob wasn’t someone who was going to hesitate when his words held some authority.

“Heh, of course, or do you think I’m going to watch you guys enjoy those precious ales?” Hallberg sneered jollily before he removed his mask, revealing his beard face, which was as Jacob imagined it to be.

Jacob then didn’t chuckle slightly before the mask under his hood vanished, and he took off his hood as well, revealing his maimed face. Furthermore, his hair was blond, and his ears were pointy.

Jacob had thought that he might have to show his face in this place, and the occasion might be one where he could not reject it unless he wanted to make things grim between the Dark Earl and himself.

So, he prepared his Golden Elf disguise just in case. The only unexpected touch was his charred left eye socket which made his handsome face less attractive and scarier, something he appreciates at any time.

Just as he thought, those three were quite startled seeing the mysterious Faceless Ancient was an elf which shouldn’t be possible since a golden elf could never be this powerful.

So, they all thought he had a terrifying secret. As for his maimed eye, they thought less of it, as scars among warriors were considered akin to honorable symbols.

“Your eyes, it’s not permanent, right?” Hallberg couldn’t help but ask at this moment.

“Yes, it was an unfortunate encountered.” Jacob coolly replied.

A peculiar glint flashed past Hallberg’s eyes before he didn’t stir that topic anymore and said, “Alright, let’s eat!”
