Cursed Immortality-Chapter 718: Establishing Might!

When they heard Jacob's leisurely conversation as if they were old friends, the Treaty members were somewhat speechless. However, before they could reply, they witnessed something shocking and eerie.

With a wave of his sleeve, the scattered purple blood started to churn and then flow towards Jacob's palm, which was covered in a black glove and started to gather in a sphere.

When all the blood gathered above his palm and the Ice Fiend Locust's corpse turned into nothing but a dry carcass, the blood suddenly vanished, and Jacob finally turned towards them while nonchalantly clapping his hands behind his back, waiting for their response.

Diminutive was the first to sputter out of his stupor, followed by Sylas and the others, but all of their reactions after witnessing that scene were similar: apprehension!

"Who are you, and did you do the same thing with the people of the Holy Mountain Range?" Sylas questioned, but his tone was no longer as confident as before.

He knew this person was extremely troublesome to deal with without their real bodies, and he had the upper hand as long as he was in the conflict plains, so hearing him out was the only

way.

Jacob looked at Sylas, and he knew he was a Faery Human. instead of replying, he coldly asked, "Are you the Temple Pope Sebastian Edgar?"

Jacob hadn't seen Sebastian's appearance, but since this Faery Human was a Quasi Legend, he could only think of Sebastian, who was most likely of this rank. This made him even more confused since he never had thought that Sebastian was connected with the Queen Ice Fiend Locust.

As for holding a grudge against Sebastian for scheming against Adolph, he didn't have any since he wasn't Adolph, and as long as Sebastian gave him what he wanted, he didn't mind letting him live for now.

Sylas was surprised for a moment when Jacob mentioned Sebastian's name. He was doubtful about why Jacob was asking about his descendant and thought he might have some grudge against him.

Nonetheless, he still shook his head, denying it, and replied, "No, I'm not Sebastian, but he's my descendant. Did he provoke you?" freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

'Now this is unexpected...' Jacob was slightly surprised, but his expression was hidden as he subtly replied, "Yeah, something like that. But there is nothing that can't be resolved by some compensation. However, before that, what do you think about my proposal? If you guys are unwilling, then there is nothing to discuss here."

Jacob then suddenly looked towards Diminutive, who was standing behind everyone in silence. This made Diminutive flinch slightly, as he didn't expect Jacob to take notice of him. Jacob then speaks while looking at him, "You should be the boss here, right, Lord Goblin?"

'How did he know!?' Diminutive, for the time in decades, was shocked by something to this extent. No one had ever been able to tell his identity because he could conceal his true prowess with soul force; it was even more impossible while he was using a soul puppet.

Yet this guy somehow easily guessed his identity as the Lord Goblin, which he didn't even know until he stumbled upon a fortuitous opportunity that changed his entire life.

Now, Jacob seemed even more unfathomable to him, and if he had been confident in going against him before, he wasn't anymore. In fact, he was even thinking of running away from this person because he could feel a sense of fear from him, which normally others felt from him.

However, the Treaty members were even more shocked when they heard this and looked collectively towards Diminutive with incredulous expressions. They knew this person shouldn't be teasing them by calling the weakest member of the treaty in charge of them. He was either playing with them, or there was something more to Diminutive's identity they didn't know.

Furthermore, when Sylas and Samara considered it, they really hadn't seen Diminutive's face or known about his race. All they knew was that he was a servant of the Queen and ran errands for her. Now, they started to wonder if this guy was hiding something.

Jacob also noticed the others' strange reactions, and a peculiar glint flashed past his eyes before he nodded in understanding. "So you were hiding your identity as a Cosmic Goblin from them, and the face about already awakening 'that,' huh? A true example of a wolf in sheep's clothing. Well, forgive me for exposing you, but something tells me that you are the true manipulator behind these guys.

"So, what will it be? Are you going to make a deal with me or continue to stand against me? Or just run away now that you know I'm extremely dangerous? But before you choose, let me tell you what you can get from me if you make this deal in advance..."

Jacob's words were like knives that completely cut open Diminutive's deception in front of everything, and the confident goblin was finally terrified when all of his secrets were exposed in a single breath. Just as Jacob stated, he was really planning on running away as he found Jacob extremely dangerous now, but he still stopped when he heard the last part.

The Treaty members were completely skeptical about this, and they felt even more fear of this person whom they had thought of as prey just a few moments ago. They knew they had unknowingly entered a tiger's den, and now this tiger was toying with him.

"I'm completely convinced and awed by your excellency's foresight. I seek your forgiveness for my and my college's actions. As an apology, I'll sincerely hear your excellency's offer, and as long as it is something we can do, we'll accept it without any compensation in return." Diminutive finally spoke in a solemn yet submissive tone.

Although he knew he had hit an iron wall this time, he was still glad his main body wasn't here; otherwise, he would've never been able to rest and might've already started running. The Treaty members were shocked when Diminutive finally took charge, and they finally believed Jacob's words.

But they remained silent since this also meant they could leave this to Diminutive, and they didn't have to deal with this terrifying being personally.

"Hahaha, you really are a goblin. You should know I have a 'soft' spot for goblins." Jacob laughed with an eerie coldness behind it, which sent chills down Diminutive's spine for some

reason.

Jacob finally stopped laughing, and since he had already established his dominance and planted an image of an unfathomable existence in these Quasi Legends minds, he directly revealed his offer, which he knew they wouldn't be able to refuse no matter what.

Although it would be somewhat troublesome, he knew if he wanted to save time, he needed to use these guys. Even if they didn't agree, they wouldn't sit still and react in a way that was nothing but beneficial to him.

"If you agree to my conditions, I'll give you the location of the Legendary Key that everyone is searching for!"

Absolute silence descended in the area before sounds of ridged breathing could be heard!
