You Will Be Blessed If You Do Good Deeds¿-Chapter 117

Loneliness (蠱毒).

Originally, it refers to the last surviving poisonous insect in a jar containing poisonous insects.

In fact, strictly speaking, what I use is not a real bug.

The item that I put into James Chen’s throat is an item made with my blood.

‘... ... No, considering that the system treats me like a pest, is it similar?’

The last time I rented a lab to make reagents, I made a few of them as a side job, but I didn’t expect them to be used this well.

I temporarily created a bug that ◈ Nоvеlіgһт ◈ (Continue reading) I could control by putting my magic power, that is, blood, into the monster’s shell.

“Dominated? What on earth did you do... ... Keuk!”

James Chen, who looked up at me in disbelief, convulsed in pain again and bit his mouth with white foam.

“Oh. That’s because you’re talking nonsense.”

It seems that the loneliness that had taken hold in James’s brain made him pay a small price for disobeying my orders.

- Quest, Good Deeds, Blessings ¿ is in progress.

- If you act in a way that is inappropriate to social standards, your ability restrictions will be strengthened.

- The system points out that ‘torturing humans’ is an act that most members of society would not agree with.

“Torture, no way!”

I pretended to be exaggeratedly surprised by the system message that came to mind.

I was annoyed, but it wasn’t that I hadn’t expected the system to act like that, so I had an excuse prepared.

“This is part of the treatment.”

It wasn’t a lie.

Even though he was suffering like that, in fact, I had just saved that man’s life.

If my loneliness hadn’t infiltrated James Chen’s body and swallowed the time bomb planted in his detonator, his head would have already exploded.

Just like Lee Man-bok.

Compared to an old man who had become completely ignorant, a slight headache was a luxury.

“Keuk... ... Kkeueueuk... ...!”

James’s body convulsed violently.

Ah, it’s a bit painful to call it a slight headache.

The loneliness that must be settling in James Chen’s body right now must be quite severe.

“What is this, a side effect of the treatment?”

- The system suspects the intentions of the user, ‘Jeong Da-on’.

Crackle!

The tips of my fingers slightly tingled.

Perhaps the system was trying to restrain me with the intention of restraint.

However... ... .

“... ... ... ... ”

As a result, nothing happened.

The ability restriction was not strengthened.

It was just as I thought.

In fact, I saved a guy who should have died like Lee Man-bok, and on top of that, didn’t James kidnap me first and try to experiment on me?

The judgment was that a little pain, no, the pain that came with the treatment was ‘justified’ for that guy.

‘This is the limit of the swarm intelligence.’

This ultimately means that the majority of the people who make up the society affirm me.

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.

However, neither the law nor morality favors the weak.

It is very easy for a demon to infiltrate this broken society.

“Cough, cough... ...!”

James, who was lying on the ground, vomited black blood.

“Look at this, the surgery was successful.”

The suggestion magic that had been embedded in James’ brain all this time was now released in a form.

The thick blood seeped into the floor.

It was unfortunate that the original form of the magic circle was completely destroyed and could not be examined, but it was certain that this kind of thing would happen.

I thought that if Orbis had reached out to James Chen, he would have taken appropriate measures.

The only problem was whether my solitude would be effective.

In the end, it was very effective.

“Han Jae-young did a good job.”

In order for the loneliness I made with my blood to settle in and influence the other person’s body, the other person’s mind must first submit to me.

In the end, this loneliness is a bug created with my magic power, and magic power is the power of the soul.

In other words, the other person must feel completely defeated by me mentally for the loneliness to properly settle in their body.

That’s why I used Han Jae-young.

Han Jae-young’s transformation.

I thought that if Han Jae-young transformed into me and made James Chen submit, I could use the loneliness.

Of course, Han Jae-young would never have imagined that he had asked me to attack James Chen for this purpose.

Wriggle!

James’s body on the ground shook violently.

I grabbed James’ head, who was lying on the ground writhing in pain, and pulled him up.

“Tell me about Orbis.”

“... ... I don’t know about that... ... It’s true! It’s true!”

As if to prove the extent of the pain he had already received, James made excuses while looking at my face.

“I don’t know about Orbis. I just know about the pattern on that bracelet... ... the item with the snake carving on it!”

“... ... Continue.”

“I’ll tell you, so please, please do something about this... ...!”

“That depends on how useful your story is.”

James hurriedly continued to speak at my words.

“Buh, it’s been over 20 years already. I saw an item with the same pattern when I was collecting items!”

James Chen’s story was like this.

James, like Leila, knew that he had the talent to sense magic since he was still a minor.

Naturally, he dreamed of becoming a hunter.

And James’ wealthy parents wanted their child to be a little safer.

So they bought a self-defense item that could protect James... ...

That item had a snake piece like the bracelet I showed you.

“Are you saying that an item with this piece engraved on it was on the market?”

“It wasn’t a normal route. I heard later... ... that they got it from an acquaintance on the black market. Everyone did it that way... ... .”

“... ... The black market.”

It’s not surprising that the black market is thriving in the United States.

Even in Korea, illegal reagents are often distributed, and the laboratory I rented in New York is also close to the gray zone.

“I heard that it was quite famous on the black market at the time. The items with the unique snake piece engraved on them all had surprisingly low magical power consumption but great output.”

“Even if it was a black market, the craftsman who made the item would have been known. Who was that?”

“I don’t know about that. Seriously!”

James added urgently when he saw me frowning.

“I was a minor at the time! “You don’t know much about the Black Market.”

“But if it was that great of an item, you would have tried to get more later.”

“... ... I tried to look for it later.”

As expected.

“But, by the time I was active, there were no more new items in circulation. Everyone just assumed that the craftsman who created the item had been killed by a competitor.”

“... ... Hmm.”

“Cough!”

James Chen fell to the ground again, screaming in pain.

- The system points out that ‘torturing humans’ is an act that most members of society would not agree with.

“It’s not about torturing, it’s about checking to see if there are any more hints left.”

There are more than one or two things that bother me about James Chen’s story.

First of all, it was 20 years ago.

‘You’ve been in this world for that long?’

That’s strange.

The 𝘮ost uptodat𝑒 novels are pub𝙡ished on freeweɓnovēl.coɱ.

As far as I know, Orbis was definitely alive before I died... ... Above all, the wizard who had become a life-size Buddha in the previous dungeon also mentioned Orbis.

Since he had created a life-size Buddha after the world had already been destroyed, it was clear that Orbis had survived my death.

But the items made by Orbis had been circulating on this Earth since 20 years ago.

Even before I was born into this world.

That wasn’t the only questionable thing.

“I find it hard to believe. I just happened to buy an item... ... .”

“What, what, what? What are you talking about! I really told the truth!”

James’ face, as he spoke desperately, was stained with dirty bodily fluids.

At the same time, his nails, which were scratching his neck and arms, were stained with blood and flesh.

James screamed.

“It itches so much, it itches so much! I think I’m going crazy!”

It was clear that the loneliness was spreading through James’s blood vessels, not just his head, and his whole body was ticklish.

Looking down at that face, I folded my arms and pondered.

In fact, it was actually unlikely that someone who was completely mentally defeated and writhing in pain like that would be lying.

That made it even stranger.

Even if it was Orbis, in order to cast this level of suggestion magic, he would have to make direct contact with the other person.

And there would have to be something to cast suggestion magic on.

Then... ... .

“Want to look here?”

I kicked James Chen’s chin, which was still convulsing and covered in unpleasant bodily fluids, to make him look away.

James Chen looked at me with an ugly face.

“I’d rather kill you... ... !”

“Don’t joke around. Let me ask you one last question.”

I created a small illusion on my palm.

“Have you seen this human?”

Honestly, just recalling the memory makes me sick.

But if Orbis wasn’t reincarnated into this world... ... .

It would be exactly as I know it.

“Ah... ... .”

James Chen’s eyes, which saw the vision blooming on my hand, were filled with amazement that didn’t match the situation.

Silver hair that flowed down to his feet as if symbolizing power, and light blue eyes.

Emperor’s attire splendidly embroidered with golden thread.

That was the last time I remembered Orbis.

James opened his mouth.

“I’ve never seen such a beauty in my life... ... kekeke!”

I kicked James’ mouth.

“Don’t say such unpleasant things.”

James Chen looked up at me as if he was being wronged after asking me, but it was none of my business.

Who told me to say such crazy things?

Isn’t it because loneliness entered my body wrongly? Suddenly, my whole body seemed to be crying out in pain.

“It doesn’t make sense that you haven’t seen it. This human planted a bomb in your head. It must be around you.”

“That’s... ... But, I’m telling the truth. I’ve never seen a woman like that in my life!”

What on earth happened to Sun?

While I was lost in thought, James Chen opened his mouth, looking at me.

“Is that woman’s name Orbis?”

“... ... Yes.”

“Is it because she’s young? She’s naive. I don’t know what the circumstances are, but judging from what you’re looking for, she must be being chased. Nowadays, people can change their faces with reagents or surgery. You can even buy a fake identity if you have money. It’s easier than you think.”

“... ... ... ... ”

James hurriedly continued after seeing my expression.

“That, that means you’re saying you’ll help me find it! You said you’d contact me, right? Investigate all the people you’ve met over the years... ... .”

“Shut up.”

James hurriedly shut his teasing mouth at my words.

I wonder if I didn’t know that possibility.

Common sense tells me that considering Orbis’s purpose, it’s obvious that she wouldn’t have revealed her identity or purpose to anyone else. Maybe she could have changed her face.

Orbis is truly the ‘enemy of humanity’.

This Earth itself is the enemy of Orbis.

But... ... .

‘... ... You really did something that was not like you, Orbis.’

I honestly couldn’t imagine that the Orbis I knew would do something like that.

Hiding my natural face, abandoning my name and identity, and making money by doing illegal things in the black market.

And by doing all that, your goal is to somehow hold on to a world that has already been destroyed beyond repair.

Thus, you’ve thrown away all your pride and have been struggling in a completely different world for decades... ... .

A strange feeling came over me.

The one who was once my beloved sister and my proud emperor really... ... .

“I, I really told you everything. I told you that I would help you!”

I suddenly came to my senses at James’ words.

Yeah, there’s no need to be caught up in such tiresome feelings.

James Chen was now rubbing his body on the floor.

It seemed that his itching had reached its peak.

“So please stop. It hurts so much, it tickles, and it feels like all my blood vessels are being eaten away!”

“... ... Okay.”

Now that things have come to this, it would be difficult to kill James Chen right now.

He’s a more useful person if we leave him alive anyway.

I obediently grabbed James Chen’s hand.

And then, enduring the unpleasant sensation, I gently poured my magic into James’ body.

The moment my magic flowed in,

James Chen, who had been rolling around on the floor, suddenly stopped moving.

Like someone who had wandered through the desert and found an oasis.

“What is this... ...? Is it healing magic?”

Healing magic, that couldn’t be true.

I looked down at James Chen and smiled.

“I just fed Solitude.”

“... ... No way.”

“And my Solitude only feeds on my magic.”

Solitude will sleep and be quiet when it’s full, but it will wake up and crawl through the blood vessels of my body when it’s hungry.

In other words, if James doesn’t receive regular supply of my magic, he will suffer from this pain forever.

“I’m still a rookie hunter who just finished basic military training, so I need a lot of things to be my hands and feet.”

James’ eyes widened as if he was seeing something unbelievable.

Yes.

It’s not enough to just announce to the world that I’m a formidable opponent.

I really need to create a force that I can move.

That’s the way to break through this situation.

“Wh, what are you talking about... ... ! That’s ridiculous! There’s no way this kind of magic can be legally permitted... ... .”

“It’s quite funny that you’re talking about the law. The gag code seems to fit well.”

You’ll see each other often in the future, so it won’t be bad.

“Don’t worry, you have another comrade.”

“Comrade... ... .”

“Oh, they’re coming.”

Han Jae-young and Yoo Han-ul were approaching from afar with Leila. They must have been very flustered, because their footsteps were fast.

“Let’s do the rest of the interrogation after we get out of here.”

I waved at them and said.

“So act sensibly like the devil’s servants.”

Lying is the devil’s virtue, after all.
