(Present)


    Nighttime, under the starry sky, between the canyon, around a massive waterfall.


    The fifty-cubic meter, glistering ck block, which was the entrance of the Dark City, revealed an opening on its one side, and a tall hooded figure d in ck walked out.


    Jacob saw the night sky filled with stars, and down below was the raging water stream from the massive waterfall.


    "Goodbye, Sir Faceless Ancient. The Dark City hopes your stay here was pleasant, and Dark City will always wee you anytime!" Dark Rose''s electric voice rang at this moment.


    "d to hear that." Jacob impassivelymented with a chuck before he nced back at the closing door, and an icy smile appeared on his face.


    Without wasting more time, he walked to the edge of the tform, and without hesitation, he dived into the water stream.


    Just five minutes passed after Jacob exited the dark city. The small opening appeared again, and this time, there were many figures appearing one after another.


    Some of them used their star watches before they also dived, and this kind of scene was being yed for almost an hour as today many people were leaving the dark city, which hadn''t happened for a long time.


    At this moment, Jacob was calmly running into the dense magic beast forest, slowly making his way toward the inner region. But his speed was only average as he ran between trees.


    ''Just how many people are after my life? Don''t tell me the entire mercenary agency was put on the task to kill me? Or are there more hidden enemies that I was unaware of? Well, let theme then. I''ll get rid of them in one fell swoop.'' Jacob thought maliciously.


    Although it looked like he wasn''t paying attention and was going on his merry way, in truth, Jacob was on full-time high alert. From the moment he exited the canyon, he knew he was being watched.


    After he entered the forest, those guys who were lying waiting in the forest started following him, and slowly but surely, their numbers started to climb as time went by.


    Jacob guessed that those guys who were present in the beast forest before he left the dark city were only scouts, and the true force was the guys joining them, and they most likely came from the dark city.


    But Jacob was still quite astounded when he found that the numbers of his pursuers kept increasing, and not only that, but it was more than one group.


    He didn''t know if those guys were together or knew about each other existence, but he was pretty sure that they all had onemon goal, him!


    If he wanted, he could start acting right away, but he didn''t do so because he wanted to see just how many guys were after him and get rid of them all at once.


    Although this action of his was dangerous and filled with uncertainties, Jacob was quite confident in preserving his life unless there were epic beings present among those guys or they had type-2 treasures, which was nigh impossible in his knowledge!


    Even if, by some bad luck, any of those possible scenarios came true, Jacob wasn''t like twenty months ago. He was as ready as he could get to start the voyage to the epic ins.<novelsnext></novelsnext>


    The Rare ins were now just like a backyard to him, which he could leave on a whim nobody could stop him.


    Jacob then thought of something as he thought, ''Cursed Immortality!''


    Cursed Immortality instantly appeared, hovering in front of him as the pages started to turn and he read words written by Immortika.


    "You finally decided to summon me after two years. I was getting bored out of my mind!" Those words were filled with resentment.


    But Jacob wasn''t the one to fall for them, "If you''re doing wailing, then help me find if there is anyone here with a heart worth of Cursed Blood Condensing."


    Jacob knew it was almost impossible to find another wyvern-like existence in this ce again, but this didn''t mean he won''t find someone with a faint trace of some legendary bloodline.


    ording to Immortika, as long as he eats the heart of someone with legendary potential, his Cursed Blood Condensing would increase. And the bloodline ys the biggest part in having a potential of legendary rank.


    But it wasn''t important to have a true legendary bloodline. That''s where descendants came into the picture. Even if someone had a faint trace of their legendary bloodline, they would be considered a descendant of a legendary being.


    Even if there was a 000.1% bloodline present in that person, Jacob was willing to take their hearts since it was better than nothing. The chances of that blood density getting higher would be increased when he starts his hunt in the epic ins.


    Right now, he had hundreds of chicks following him, and he could ughter them as he wished, so he didn''t want to waste any potential heart. That''s why he summoned Cursed Immortality to identify those hearts.


    Even if the result turned out to be disappointing, he was also hoping to use it for scouting. But of course, he won''t admit that out loud.


    "Hehehe… do you think legendary rank''s descendants would y house in a ce like…" Immortika suddenly stopped writing, which was quite a surprise to Jacob as it never had happened before.


    Which made his heart palpitate, "Do you found something?" He asked in disbelief as he instantly became vignt of his surroundings. He can ignore anything but cursed immortality.


    "Hahahaha…" The very next moment, Immortika''s maniacalughter filled the page, which only made Jacob more uneasy.


    "Just out with it!" He sternly dered.


    "You really have Devil''s Luck! There are two hidden existences within your pursuers who matched the requirement for Cursed Blood Condensing. Although they are not direct descendants, but they are only far from six generations!"


    Jacob''s eyes shimmered intensely as he felt more at ease since it wasn''t some danger, "It''s quite rare that I''m d that I summoned you. So, where are they!?"
