Cursed Immortality - Chapter 722: Pubescent Class
Back to the Holy Mountain Range, which has now turned into Jacob’s backyard. Because of Sylas’s secret interference, the Faery Humans would not seek to reclaim this place or seek revenge. If anything, Sylas was saving them from certain death!
Nonetheless, now that the Treaty has signed a deal with Jacob, saving a few more Faery Humans won’t matter anymore because, according to their deal with Jacob, they won’t interfere with the locust army and will also encourage the factions of unique plains to take part in this war.
Although the Queen Ice Fiend Locust’s target was Jacob, those three factions didn’t know that, and so the more they tried to resist the army, the more bloody mess it caused, which was Jacob’s goal to begin with.
Furthermore, with Treaty on board, Jacob also didn’t need to worry about wasting any spilled blood outside the Unique Plains. However, there was a single change in this deal: Jacob would have to give away the location of the legendary key after 5 years, whether he was satisfied with the amount of blood or not.
After all, without this time limit, Jacob could easily have continued wasting time until the Path of Legend’s opening time was over. So, Diminutive had to propose this condition after knowing what Jacob wanted from them.
Jacob also agreed with this term since he knew Diminutive might not agree to anything less than this. Furthermore, Jacob wasn’t planning on dragging this at all. If anything, he was the most impatient of them all to complete the final stage before the Path of Legend opened.
At this moment, Jacob was in the library of the Church, where the hidden lab of Percy was also located. He was closely monitoring the star news.

Jacob couldn’t help but sneer when he saw that, except for the first notification by the Alchemy Guild President, the rest of the trending news was all about the people capturing live feeds of the incoming locust army to earn some profits amid the chaos.
Nonetheless, Jacob had to admit that the Treaty had done a great job of riling up the masses, and now all he had to do was wait for the first clash between the locust army and the unique plains.
“The time for gathering the harvest is not far. I have to move personally to collect the blood. But I have to keep my presence hidden as much as possible, and thanks to these idiots showing everything, I can easily be at the place with most casualties.’ Jacob’s lips curled up as he closed the Star Network for now and looked towards a small pile of old books.
These books were given to him by none other than Sylas after Jacob bluntly demanded all the secrets related to the Spellbind Eyes of the Faery Human Race as well as their scripture.
All he gave in return was that he wouldn’t bother the Faery Human Race, especially that he wouldn’t touch any of their temples or sully their God. Furthermore, Jacob also demanded a private meeting with the current Pope, Sebastian, and he promised not to harm him in any way.
In the end, Sylas has no choice but to agree with Jacob despite his curiosity about why Jacob is so interested in the Faery Human Race’s heritage. After all, now that Sylas knew what kind of terrifying being had set his eyes on their race, he didn’t dare take this matter lightly.
After all, he didn’t care about his race but only himself, and for now, protecting the reputation of the Holy Justice God was protecting his own neck. So, he gave away everything Jacob desired. He even promised him Sebastian on a silver platter any time he wanted.
However, Jacob didn’t want to leave the Unique Plains at this moment because he didn’t want to reveal the truth about him being completely fine despite staying there. After all, he knew Diminutive might’ve already considered the possibility of him having a treasure that allowed him to enter the conflict plains without any restraints.
If he left now and someone powerful attacked him, this would easily reveal the truth, and then things might turn more complicated for him. So, he wanted to collect as much blood as possible and only then leave the conflict plains. This way, it would appear in others’ view that he had recovered with that blood he gathered.
Jacob was about to open the first book when he felt a cold sensation suddenly spread through his mind as if something had broken free within. This was the end because suddenly, Jacob started to feel his soul force stirring, and the next moment, it started to spread-it was growing abruptly!
Jacob was bewildered by this sudden turn of events, and he had no idea why his soul force suddenly started to grow.
However, at this moment, something instantly came to his mind when he felt a familiar presence within his mind. A realization dawned on him, and a hint of anticipation flashed past his eyes: Just how many years had it been!?
“Hahahaha, I finally reached the Pubescent Class!” At this moment, a jolly yet melodious voice with a hint of mischievousness rang in Jacob’s head.
Jacob knew who this annoying voice belonged to. Although he was glad that she was finally done with her evaluation, he was still feeling depressed about hearing her annoying voice all the time in his head again. After all, it was Nyx!
Suddenly, Nyx’s jolly voice turned into an astonished yelp before she cried in alarm, “What the hell did you do with your body!?”
