Cursed Immortality

Jacob Steve, an Old Man, died at 116 after living a whole life. But Jacob always had a dark side, which he always suppressed and hid from others. However, in the later years of his life, when death was inevitable, he understood there wasn't any point in having wealth, knowledge, or desires if you couldn't have a life to enjoy them. He became obsessed with fabled immortality and devoted his reaming life to extending his fleeting lifespan, but just like any other, he failed. However, he mysteriously got another chance at life and found a way that led to fabled immortality. But he was also forewarned that the way led to it was filled with blood and darkness! In the end, Jacob chose it anyway with no way of going back, and it was also the start of his suffering and his icky, brutal journey toward the 'Immortality' he wanted so badly! ______ Discord Server: https://discord.gg/hRdqxaVE

Antagonizing the Dark Beings (3)

Jacob wasn't expecting Hallberg's call at this time when there were still about two weeks left before their arrangement.

Furthermore, it wasn't a projection call but a voice call that seemed quite off, knowing Hallberg's character.

Jacob then accepted the call, and Hallberg's jolly voice rang, "I hope I didn't disrupt your sleep or anything?"

Jacob's eyes narrowed ever so slightly as he replied, "No worries. Is there something you need to tell me?"

Hallberg didn't waste time as he revealed, "The thing is, there's been a change in my plan of leaving the Rare Plains. As you already know that the Dark Beings are marching toward the Dark City, and somehow the higher-ups in the Epic Plains got wind of it.

"So, they contacted me and told me to secure the Dark City at any cost and defend it. They also made it pretty clear if I leave my post in a state of crisis, I won't be welcome in the Epic Plains.
